I'm a self-employed engineer. I've been using dBase-IV(DOS) for years in a WIN (95/98/2000pro) environment with no problem. With no warning, I've suddenly received an error when I try to initialize "Password file is in use by another: DBSYSYEM.DB". There is no one else on my network - only me. I use dBase-IV to log my drawing numbers, PO numbers, project numbers, etc. The code was written by me 10 years ago and I've not ever had a problem before now. As a work around, I've been able to use MSACCESS to add new entries and search the log but it's just not the same. Anyone know what happened and how to fix it?
