Are there any limitations of use btrieve on novell 6?

[tomikk]

If I try to run my software (which uses btrieve) on novell 6, I can only run 2 times at the same time on 2 PC. Do you know where is a problem, or how I can solve this problem?

Can you be more specific? I don't quite understand what you're asking.

I use software that uses btrieve, it is a client server sowtware, is instaled only on server. Problem is when I try to use (run) that software from PC connected to the server I can only use (run)it twice at the same time on 2 PC, if I try to use if from another PC - got error message 0 - Open, betrieve error. I am asking if there is any limitation of use btrieve on novell6, because that software worked on Novell 4.2 without any problem in six PCs, or how can I solve this problem and how can I run my soft more times.

OK, this makes sense now. The following link should explain the difference. Netware 4.2 included BTrieve 6.10f, while since Netware5, they've included Pervasive SQL 2000 with limited user licenses. (Pervasive SQL 2000 is essentially BTrieve in new clothing) Anyway, you need to purchase more Pervasive licenses.
