I guess you’re wright, Pat. As Kirk mentions, the question is when the license is released. I’m afraid this is only when a user logs out, but I haven’t tested it.
I try not to use too much stored procedures on 4D server, though. I did this when an application of mine was deployed the first time at the customers site, and it caused 4D server to crash frequently. I was loading emails using POP3 through stored procedures and creating 4D Write documents. I solved this by running a 4D client on the same machine as where 4D server was running on. This 4D client does all the processing necessary, including fetching e-mail every minute. It has been very stable since (99% up time). I insist with the customers to add an additional 4D client license + an additional 4D Write license for that 4D client on the server. There isn’t a single client who refused.
