Though I am new to Linux and things like VI are still somewhat out of my grasp, I hear that VIM is good. Here is their website for further review. http://www.vim.org/ --- "One source to query, one source to answer and one source to bind them." Aaron Sharp

David, The larger idea that spawned this post was that we need to know who has the file. We've tried lksys(), but in the case of exclusive the information contained can only be accessed by the user of the file. We are currently thinking of a semaphore like system where when a person locks or...

Hello all, I have been tasked with finding out who has a file locked. Sounds relatively simple, but there are many interesting variables involved. So far, we are using a dBASE 5 for DOS program that is definitely legacy. There are functions within dBASE that need to lock a file exclusive...

Hello, Another approach to my error issue might be to see some sample error trapping code. If anybody is willing to post some sample code that might be able to help me figure out what I need to do. Though, the could would need to be in dBASE 5.0 for DOS. Thanks --- "One source to query, one...

Hi All, I am using dDBASE 5.0 for DOS. I have a file locked and I am trying to get the information on who locked it. So far, I have tried using LKSYS() (already CONVERTed the tables) and it only works if I issue the command with the same user that has the file locked. Given that information, I...

Thanks! That works great! --- "One source to query, one source to answer and one source to bind them." Aaron Sharp

Here is my goal. To use Outlook 2003 rules that will look at a new email and compare the address with those in my address book. If the email address is not in the book I would like to return the message to the sender with a note requesting them to call me to be added. Is this possible...

Found some answers on their KB...

I am using Act! by Sage Premium for Workgroups 2007 (9.0) (EX Edition) Ver. 9.0.0.175. I am tring to setup synchronization and I need to create a remote database by going to the control panel and clicking "Create Remote Database." But when I do, I get the error message. "Unable to retrieve all...

I figured it out. After the VPN connection which brings the PC through the firewall, it was a matter of using the IP address to map the share folder. I also edited the hosts file and could then also use the PC name!! --- "One source to query, one source to answer and one source to bind them."...

Also, if this isn't possible please let me know. Alternatively, I could try skipping the domain credentials altogether. We are using the VPN which will bring us into the network at the router level (SonicWall). At that point we just need to access a shared drive on a machine. Can I connect to a...

Hello! We are using a Sonic Wall TZ170 for a VPN connection. We are successful at connecting to the SonicWall, but when trying to connect to a program on a server it will not let us unless it is a domain PC. Is there a way to choose a domain or force a domain login once a VPN connection is...

Thanks 58sniper! I found this with a google search, it brought me back to this site! http://www.tek-tips.com/viewthread.cfm?qid=1407597&page=3 I guess it helps to know what it is called. Thanks!! --- "One source to query, one source to answer and one source to bind them." Aaron Sharp

On the NT4 Server in the DHCP manager, there is an option to add a new server. When trying to add the Win2k3 Server running DHCP it tells me that the service is stopped or is not running. But it is running on the 2k3 machine. I don't know if this is a large issue or not. But the network used to...

lhuegele, I am pretty sure that would work if the option was available. Currently, I am just having the users manually map to the printer and authenticate. I might just run a script here in the future. Cheers
