Dear all,

This question has been bothering me for a while.
Considering the architecture, more than two computers, running windows 95, are connected together by LAN. A program and associated database are put on one of the machine, let's say 'machine A'. Other machines remotely executes the program on machine A through network neighbour, and shows the forms and results on their local screen. What happen to this? Is the program actually exectued on remote machine A, or run on local machines? Or some things are run remotely, and some other things are run locally?

I have an experiment about it, and it shows the resources on local machines are used quite a lot. But I am not sure why.

Also, in this case, is it better to issue SQL-commands than using 'set filter to & do while loop' to manipulate data? Considering the performance and the amount of data to deal with.

Many thanks.

Regards,
Ron.
