    Oplock when installed on local pc but data is on network server?

    Thanks Manni. I think you've answered my questions ("yes, same issue"). ps. I am aware of setting leasingmode to none, if that is what you are referring to. Unless there is another way? Thanks.

    Oplock when installed on local pc but data is on network server?

    I've read all I can on this forum re: oplock with VFP9 application on a network server. My question is a little different. What about if the application is installed on a local pc, but the data is on a network server? Would this setup still have the same oplock issue? Logically, I think it...

    Find all files used in compilation

    Find all files used in compilation

    Thank you Mike and Chris. Chriss, it uses Inno setup. And I know the exact files together with the EXE are needed for the distribution. What troubles me is the 6GB of files/folders currently there to compile the EXE. A lot of that, I suspect, are backups and misnamed files. I am sure there...

    Find all files used in compilation

    This could be very simple but I am new to VFP9. I inherited this legacy software that compiles and works fine. But it has a lot of folders and files built up over the years that are not used. I want to get rid of all the unused files so I have a clean slate to start with. Is there a way to...
