Hi,
I have written an application to keep track of football fixtures, results and to create league tables. I have created a main .exe to run the menu procedure which calls the programs the user wants. The programs the menu procedure calls are .apps.
If I run the program twice on the same machine at the same time the access times are the same as when one person runs the program, but, when the program is run from two different machines at the same time, access times become extremely slow.
The programs and data are held on an NT server and run on NT workstations.

The program is being run on:
NT Workstation 4.0
CPU: PII-350
Memory: 128Mb
Disk capacity: 3.0Gb
Disk available: 1.0Gb

The server is:
NT Workstation 4.0
CPU: P120
Memory: 48Mb
Disk capacity: 2.0Gb
Disk available: 115Mb

Network:
10 Mbps

Although the server seems pretty underpowered, I have used a workstation as above to hold the data and programs but with no apparent difference.

Can anyone help me?
