>This is little off from the orginal post, but interesting what you said here. Let you know that at one time with FPW 2.6, I had to update the tables and even send messages to other end-user viewers to let them know the data is updated while they are looking at the older data. Furthermore, it was all in DOS, yet, I also had to make this both available in DOS and Windows, even to let it be while one using Windows and other using DOS (not DOS shell thing) at the same time (had to use NetBEUI or something, boy it's been so long ago already?), all that, quite something, isn't it? What happened to VFP now? <g>

It was an earlier version of Visual MaxFrame. It was quite easy to fix, once we diagnosed the problem - just one line of code to comment out. In the present version it's clearly documented, but in that version it took a long time to find it.
