>>The application handles workorders for a phone company.. For each workorder, they are building a header table (One record) plus a detail table(one record per part/labor item), plus a materials table is generated from the detail table... Add to this, that the main data entry form is layed out using private datasessions that have to be tracked (so that reports can be run off the active form's data).. And you have a royal pain in the A$$..

Paul,
Most people will be running using atleast p-100 machines, either accessing over a LAn (All Novell Lans) some over 56k dedicated lines..
My major concern is (Posted in another message, will rephrase) is the system was more a porting of code from FP 2.x to VFP, where we are using a more flat-file storage means for data than a relational design, and have no use of VFP's features (Database container, no buffering, not even using old FP memory variable style screens.. We are reading/writing Directly to the data tables involved)..
See any problems so far?? I certainly DO...
Thanx!
