Hey there Paul & Mike - thanks for the feedback. So - to answer your question - Yes - it most definitely is on a Network drive. That's why I mention that it ran on the server - but, not on the workstation - even though the workstation was running the same system from the SAME Location - and Network folder.
As for your suggestion of "they don't have Offline Files enabled for the network drive" - I'm not sure of where to check for that. However, I will CC my QA Tech guy here - and maybe he can check into that - as he's MUCH MORE of a Network expert than I am!

I assume this is running on a network drive? Check they don't have Offline Files enabled for the network drive. I've seen this do wierd things like you describe. For Windows 7/Vista it might be the VirtualStore, but this generally effects c:\program files -- Paul [excessive quoting removed by server] _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: ProFox@leafe.com Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/289ea162f5642645b5cf64d624c66a140b7cd...@us-ny-mail-002.waitex.net ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
