Hi guys

When trying to open up GoldMine get the following error message. Can anyone help

Context:eek:pen
q:\goldmine\licence

BDE Error Cat:Code: [42.4]
BDE: 500 [4/11/1999] GoldMine 6.70.50123
 
I have browsed to the Q:\goldmine and have checked the BDEadmin.exe in the setup folder. It is weird because it is only on this machine that users can not log on to and have compared the settings with another machine which are both similar.
 
it may be a windows rights issue..

What user is logging into that machine? If you go to q:\goldmine\ can you make a new text document? Can you rename it? can you delete it?

I'd also check to see if, indeed, the Q drive is mapped to the exact same location on that machine as it is on the others (and not one level deeper or something)
