Oops. The Dlink ethernet ended up with the same lag problem once my DOS program mapped the network drive.
The problem is evidently a mapped network drive issue. Now the question is why the MCP6P mb has a problem which my MSUA and M7VIG mbs don't.
I don't think it's a memlimit setting. It appears to be related to the NVIDIA nForce 10/100 ethernet on the motherboard. I removed the driver, Client for MS Networks, File and Printer sharing, and Qos Packet. I disabled the onboard LAN. I shut down and installed an old DLink ethernet card...
I went ahead and created my own function. It requires a little more programming whenever I want to browse, but it does remedy the crashing.

Our office is running a program written in DOS foxpro. All our Windows 98 computers, with SPOOL MS-DOS PRINT JOBS deactivated, print immediately in response to an employee hitting the print button.
We recently added a few Windows XP Pro computers to our network and the lag between print...
I've added some XP Professional computers to my 98SE LAN. My office management program runs in DOS FP. I've always used = NUML(.T.) and = CAPS(.T.) to insure that the keyboard is formatted for my users. The XP computers just ignore the code. What's up with that? How do I get the XP...
O boy! Just another inconvenience of converting to VFP. The graphing program I've used for years was a free download from a user's group. Now I'll need to start looking for VFP library resources for graphing. Any suggestions?
I have a graphing program that accesses three DGE library files that have .plb as their extension. The program doesn't run under VFP because it looks for an .fll library file. Can I convert the plbs to flls? The library files aren't something I created in the first place, so I don't even know...
I'm not using report forms, just sending raw data:
SET PRINT TO
SET PRIN ON
? <info>
SET PRIN OFF
I want to be able to go back and send additional raw data to the same page.
The items printed are simple enough that I've not used the report designer or @ commands, but just ? with the printer on. Sometimes a user will dump just a few lines of info to a page, do some other work, then dump a few additional lines on the paper that is still in the printer. I'd like to...
My DOS Foxpro programs made heavy use of ASCII characters to create vertical and horizontal lines, corners, and intersecting lines while printing. This allowed for the creation, on the fly, of printouts with attractive boxes. Now I'm having trouble in VFP even getting a nice solid line between...
Most of my printing needs are consistant with the automatic eject which occurs when the SET PRINT command is issued. But one of my printing needs is for a series of 2 or 3 lines at a time without an eject. I need to be able to SET PRIN TO, SET PRIN ON, SET PRIN OFF, then return later to the...
I've been using a peer-to-peer LAN with about 20 Win98 computers for years. One of the computers has data that is accessed by all the other computers. When I changed this computer to WinXP it no longer provided all computers access. How do I get past the limit (10?) that seems to be a part of XP?
My DOS Foxpro program is normally run on computers with WIN98SE. The program files are in a different directory than the data files. When the program initiates, the data directory is set as the default directory and additional program files are found in the path set via a batch file run with...
I run DOS Foxpro 2.5 on a Win98SE network with several AMD powered computers with CPU speeds from 400 to 2.0 Gig. I've been having sporadic problems with a 1.6 computer giving me "function not implemented" errors which immediately crash my program. The function in question appears to...
I have a fairly extensive office management program I need to convert from DOS Foxpro to Visual Foxpro. Since programming is a hobby, not my primary profession, I have some significant time constraints. I was wondering if anyone could vouch for the AppDev course as a means to quickly learn...
Thanks folks,
It was indeed a change in the resource setting. I fussed around with a CONFIG.FPW and the registry for a while, but finally resolved the problem by issuing a SET RESOURCE ON command from my development environment, then entering TOOLS, OPTIONS, and SET AS DEFAULT to make it stick...
Yikes! Somehow, in the process of trying to create runtime installations, a setting has changed for my program editor. Instead of the editor opening up on the same line of code from my last edit, it opens at the first line of the program. This will never do. Can someone please steer me to...
I've always distributed my Win98 FPD programs with WinZip. Program files and Foxpro Runtime files were unzipped in appropriate directories and users were off and running.
Now I'm tinkering with VFP7. I've built a project and EXE. I copied the runtime files (VFP7run.exe, VFP7r.dll...
