I have downloaded your program. I have installed it on my Windows NT 4.0, SP 5 Work Station. I am currently logged in to a Novell 4 server using the Windows Client. In addition, I am also currently logged into a Windows NT 4.0 SERVER. Your program appears to work correctly. I will try this again when I return to my own office where I have only a Novell 5 server. I will post my results from this as well.

Totally off the main point, but helpful in making an app look "polished". You might want to test your program after selecting a color scheme other than the default for Windows -- on my system ( Spruce ). Some of the backgrounds for labels still show grey -- not the Windows 3-D color for my choice of background. BackColor may be copied from another object which does properly track the 3-D colors in the INIT() event code of the form, after both the source and target objects have been instantiated.

Also totally off the main point, during the install the Registered Trademark indicia, represented by (r) could be a single character, cut & paste either from VFP or from the character map tool:

chr(153) is ™ -- TM in Arial font...( Trademark pending indicia )
chr(169) is © -- (c) in Arial font...( Copyright indicia )
chr(174) is ® -- (R) in Arial Font...( Registered Trademark indicia)

As I indicated, will try your program again -- maybe later today -- at my office where I have only a NOVELL 5 server. It it works on my machine, I may have time to copy it to a machine which is connected to my Novell 5 server using Novell's own Client32 network connection. That would probably exhaust my range of testing options.

I have indicated the major release #'s for Novell, I don't have the complete list of "hot fixes" that have been applied, but both the Novell 4 here at my customer site and the Novell 5 at my office are pretty much up-to-date.

Hope this helps.
