>>Hi folks. I have an tiny exe (VFP8 SP1) that runs on our Windows 2000 webserver. This exe reads a table, which represents a queue of reports to be run. There are three identical exes that run reports in different folders. Every once in a while (it may take weeks), one of the exes will stop reading from the VFP table. If I sign into the server with PCAnywhere and click on the application (each has tiny form) the application starts reading requests from the table again. Any ideas why this might be happening?

Hi Martin. What makes you think that a timer is better than Sleep()?
