Judy,

From my experiences with applications on TS, there should be few issues. I have the same type of instance checking in my code and have no problem. Each user is assigned an ID under this ID each program that this user is running is assigned a PID (Program ID). When another user signs on to TS they are assigned their ID, then when the program starts the OS looks for the window title by ID and PID. Each user has his own desktop, though they are all running on the same server. If it is possible I would examine how the program is set up on the TS. It needs to be set up on the server in "Server" mode not a user instance of TS. There is also some differences when set up as a published application or as a program on the desktop. Most of this just has to do with security and how much of the TS desktop you want the users to get to. All issues that I ran into were with memory and how VFP uses it. This should be taken care of for the most part with SP4.
