>Hey all!
> Ran into a puzzlement this afternoon. We upgraded our data server to Win2k over the weekend, and suddenly, folks are erroring out on tableupdate, because the first user to get there has it locked. These are compiled .exe apps that have been running well for 8-10 months, and the only thing that has changed is the introduction of Win2k on the server. Has anybody else run into this?
