Subject: User not getting window open in Create more (ARUser 7.6.03)

**
ARS Server 7.6.04 SP5
ARUser 7.6.03

I have three Helpdesk operators taking customer tickets on our home built 
helpdesk.
They run aruser on their windows 7 PC and then there is a third party utility 
connected to the phone system that accesses the aruser.exe process and forces 
open the appropriate form based on the Helpdesk number that was called. This 
3rd party utility is a blackbox to me and since I can’t prove that it is the 
culprit I can’t force them to call in the vendor for troubleshooting.

The scenario goes like this:
A customer calls on Line 1 the utility opens Form 1 in aruser.exe .
Line 2 opens form 2 and so on.
All forms are supposed to open in Create (green screen) mode.
After the request is submitted I close the form with an AL to prevent window 
bloat because the 3rd party can’t reuse an open window.
So for one of the operators the process opens in create mode the first time the 
aruser.exe is run. All subsequent interaction with the 3rd party utility opens 
the correct form but in Search mode.

It’s not machine specific. It happens on any machine that the Operator use. And 
when I had the Operator use a dummy account with the same permissions the 
system worked first time and every time after that.

So we have confined the issue to the Operators account. I saved the account to 
another name and created a new user record with the original name from the 
Active Directory. She still gets the bad functionality, works the first time 
but not subsequent times.

Active Link logs on the operator’s account only shows what happens after the 
utility runs.

Would the arreload command reset the User-cache and maybe clear her problem.

Thank you,
