George,
But, if I understand correctly (most of the time not) this works fine if the user is trying to run the application from the same machine, but it is still possible to run the application more than once from different machines.
Is there any solution other than having a locked shared file across the network?
Can that solution be used with different flavors of Foxpro (VFP, FPD, FPW)?
I am asking not to be controversial (is that the word?) but because we are using it in real life, we ran several unatteded programs (in all that foxpro versions) and I am wondering if there is a better way to avoid running them more than once in different machines.
