>>What kind of NOS (server software) are you running? I'm guessing it's Novell Netware. If that's the case, the problem you're experiencing can probably be fixed my loading an .NLM on the server. You'll have to make sure the Network Manager (or whatever) is cool with that or you'll have to shorten the file names.

Jane, my experience has been that it's easier to install/maintain if you store your installation files on the server and install the exe's to the workstations. Your application should have a method for knowing where the data resides also. I use a dbf that has the path to the data.
