Hi Gerard,

I'm afraid I cannot help you with the technical aspect but I can tell you that we have a large app that runs successfully at two different clients, both of which use Terminal Server for remote user access. So it can be done!!

In fact, we provide service to them over the internet into terminal server and it is like we have a local connection.

A couple of issues to look out for:

1. Security if you are using the internet
2. Printing large reports
3. Be judicious in the use of colors, I think TS has limited capabilities in the display of colors. My partner advises me to use only multiples of 64 in the RGB properties.

Good luck!!

Ken
