I have a application that's been running for 10 years, summer 87, using blinker. The program works great accross VPN, on 2000 machines, on xp machine being used as a server, with a total of 6 machines. Two of the XP pro machines will load the program, load the menues, but when it gets to a data entry screen with a database attached it just stop, the cursor sits on the bottom of the screen and waits. The funny thing is that it work on this machine before, I can't figure out what has changed, as it's in my clients office. The problem occurs no matter where the program is running from, c: , flash drive, vpn. There must be a variable setting, I've changed the config.nt to files=250 but no luck, I could sure use some help on this one.
