    Dbase IV: scrambldd DBFs and migration problem Novell->W2003 server

    We already tried dBase V as well. Same thing. Yes I have tried RLOCK... it is not a programming error. Seems to be some delay with the internal record locking system of dBase. Yes we know that we have to update and are already working on a completely new software, but it takes time.

    Hi, sorry thats impossible... they have many other applications i.e. Outlook running... and this dbase is needed all the day, it contains our customers/articles etcetc... And finally it might be quite a prob to find the right drivers to get the wokstns hooked up to the server in DOS mode...
