>>Has anyone had any problems with VFP using Client 32? Here is my scenario...
>>
>>VFP 5.0a exe
>>Workstations - Pentium 200 w/32 mb RAM
>>Novell 4.x Server
>>100 base t
>>
>>In several situations, if our program processes multiple (thousands) server reads/writes, the application will eventually stop working completely. The harddrive on the local machine is constantly swapping. The situation develops slowly until you have to reset the machine.
>>
>>The reason we know it is Client 32 is that we have taken it off at another site and put the Microsoft cleint for Netware on and the problem goes away. However, our new client refuses to switch.
>>
>>All help is greatly appreciated.

>I can't help with your problem, but having recently switched to Client 32, the only thing I can say is that it really "barks" and that it should be AKC certified. I hate it, but if that's what the client wants...well. he'll have to live with it. Bottom line, VFP's the victim and Netware's the culprit.

It doesn't feel good, but it is nice to know I am not alone. <s>
