>In my situation, I am running the Microsoft Client and the Microsoft Netware client. I'm using IPX and TCPIP and each is bound to both clients (MS and NW). I have no trouble using UNC to open tables. Maybe a second or two delay when I USE the table, but after that it's no problem.

There is no problem running both Clients. My point was that the Client for Microsoft Networks must take top priority when using UNCs. Check your priority order under Network properties.
