Hi, Calvin.

>I have a client that just converted from our DOS program to our VFP 7 program. He has 14 machines on a Windows Server 2000 network. The problem is that at some point when someone tries to start the program their machine locks up and remains locked until another user drops off the program. Since the DOS program worked on the same network under the same setup their network tech is very reticent to admit that this is a network problem. I am Server illiterate - can anyone give me any help here? Incidently, what is the default number of licenses for 2000 Server?

Windows 2000 Server doesn't have a hard limit on users. It is just a matter of licensing. The only edition specifically limited is the one from Small Business Server, which is limited to 50 connections, I think.

Anyway, can you try to describe this problem in more details? There is some specific option at which the program gets locked?

How's your setup? Are the clients running the executable from the server, or from a local copy?

See you,
