That can't be done, because there's no 'master' controller that has instances for all of them.

You can maybe play around with COM+ and see if you can put a whole COM+ application on hold, but that's not a good idea and a kludge at best.

I don't see any reason why this should happen either. With VFP data yeah, there's a big problem with the EXCLUSIVE requirement for files but with SQL Server no such issues.
