Hi Thomas,

In our case we had multiple users pound on it to test response time, etc. Record sets were small (100,000) and the select criteria were complex – allowing the user to enter over 20 different selections through a VFP form. The system worked on NT Server with good response times (less than 2 seconds per user query). Also, it had separate directories for input and output files. It worked on the FIFO principle – first in first out.
Very much like mine.

Yeah, mine does the same thing - just in FoxPro DOS with ? command. :) Also it it shows some statistics - how many requests were processed and average execution time.
