Hi people

I'm using Approach (Millenium Edition) and I have a problem opening it from multiple PC's. I get the error "BLAH BLAH, because it is open in another language" - "Check that all the PCs have the same language in the international control panel." Now the machines are a mixture of 95/98 and it seems two machines can get in at a time. The language settings are all the same so I'm stuck...

See my post below

I had this problem too - but it wasn't solved by using the control panel! The problem was that win95 regards the UK as "United Kingdom" and win98 regards the UK as "British" (it may have been the other way round). I could solve all by making all US (It's United States on both systems) but ultimately the only way to have UK dates etc etc was to upgrade all to win98! This is a dreadful state of affairs but I can't pin down whether it is Lotus (for not being more flexible) or Microsoft (for changing the UK gaolposts) who is to blame!

Hope this helps
