    Keeping instance from idling

    The backup software you are using may have the option to backup the files "without a lock". If you are using Veritas BackupExec as your backup software, the backup job can be configured to not lock the file when backing it up (right click on job, then properties, advanced tab, "open file...

    Need Help ASAP

    Ideally, you WOULDN'T install the software on every PC. The software would be installed on a Citrix Metaframe server ONCE, which would then be accessed through a Citrix client installed on each of the desktops. This has a MAJOR networking advantage: the PC then acts as a terminal which...

    Adding Disk Drive in RAID5 on PE2450 with PERC3/Si

The file crontab fields are: Minutes Hours Days/Month Months Days/Week in that order...

    Quick Q: How do I get the path of where the prog is running?

    CurDir, if I remember correctly, will give you the "Run In" directory from a shortcut. I wouldn't rely on that for the app path. App.path is the way to go.
