A workstation W2K using Remote Desktop Connection to SBS 2003 applies "user" settings displays desktop then "saves user settings" and logs off. Has worked perfectly for years. Log in on as this "user" at the server does the same thing. Log in from workstation as a different user successful...

Accpac 4.2 We have upgraded to Excel 2003 from 97 on our server SBS2003. Workstations run Accpac via Terminal Services. One user cannot see the FR menu item in FR designer while others can. He used to have it before Excel up grade. Works fine for other users. Tried creating a new user by...

Our small Lan has 8 PCS running Win2k or XPPro each has fixed IP. Currently running with no network or browsing problems. I want to be able to connect Laptops with dynamic ip's as they could be used on home networks etc. Installed a DHCP server role. Followed the Wizard and plotted out IP...

Thanks everyone...been really too busy to take the server down but it looks like I need to get my head around the DNS issue. Running the wizard seems like the easy solution. If anyone is interest I'll post results some time in the new year. Have a great Xmas.

I'll investigate yr suggestions. To my knowledge Exchange was not installed. If you can see any clues below i'd appreciate it. I'm not trained in server management but I have done quite a bit with this OS. The Internet connection and POP mail is handled by our ISP. Not sure that the DNS IP...

We had to re-boot the server. The ADSL connection we have was down for most of the day. The Server took 20 mins to get past "preparing network connections" while it is thinking users cannot connect to the server. Either browsing for files or using TS connections. We had noticed this issue...

Yep I thought as much....I understand the concepts and have plenty of database experience. I just find Crystal tedious but amazingly powerful. I would expect the datapipe vesion to be much faster. Thanks.

Sorry this is not a formatting problem. OPTAMT is not displaying the Data from IC This should be OPTAMT from IC but I think my problem is the field derives from AR. There is also an OPTAMT_2 field in the field list but also does not contain my data. Originally I put the required decimal data...

I want to display data from OPTAMT field in Invoices. I've added it to Invoice rpt spec in crystal reports, but it displays 0.00 only. I've tried un formatted OEINVPRN3.OPTAMT and ToText({OEINPR3.OPTAMT},{OEINPR3.DECIMALS}) I don't have a lot of experience with this usually just basic editing...

Thanks Andrew, This forum was a bit slow and I found the license key through Accpac Solutions. It was in one of the read me files on the original discs.(info 7 is bundled with the accounting package) It works fine on W2003 server. And I've learned something new from you.

OEORDACS.RPT OEORDACD.RPT jon@balin.com.au Mate, we had a perfectly stable system until our server died. We've never had to complain and 4.2 does everything we want. If it isn't (wasn't) broke don't fix it. I learned this lesson early. You're not the only one who's annoyed. Thanks for your...

RVSPY lots of GET and GET-Next Till finally a GET followed by ==> <119 DBS NOT FOUND> Then a series of CLOSE TABLE, UNLINK and OE0520 : OEORDH unload CS0003: CSCCD unload DBSPY Similar <119 DBS NOT FOUND>

I've 'cleaned up' and followed your steps. Same error "error detected by Database DLL" Since this is the only report we can find that generates this error. Is it possible that we have corrupt report files. I can open the report specs in Seagate report designer and when I run the 'refresh'...

Been really busy on other projects. Will up date you with results next week. I appreciate you help.

I copied files from Crystal folder to system32 folder. Also tried copying to system32/Crystal/ Still get the error both running on server as admin and from a TS client. Jon
