>I have an application written in Foxpro 2.5b DOS. On a particular site I have lots of problems with response time.
>Here is the hardware configuration :

Most of them have DLINK network card. The others have 3COM network card. This is a 100 Mbits network with hubs and switches.(I have a plan of this complex architecture). The workstations are running Windows 95.
>I have two different problem :
>1. Response time : In this particular configuration my application run very slowly. The shortcut created to access the application have as memory parameters AUTO on all choices. I know that Foxpro DOS run as well as possible when he can use XMS memory. We try to change this parameters and allocate 16MB EMS memory but response time are not better at all.
>2. General failure on network reading drive H :
>On a particular machine, when the user wants to start the application using the shortcut, he receive this error message. On the others it not regular but it appends.

Salut Marc,

I see you received no answer. As I told you over the phone I do not have a particular solution to offer. I just wanted this thread to resurface and hopefully someone will come up with good suggestions.

José
