Hi, Just another comment on this issue: If you install MapInfo ProViewer - and for that sake a MapInfo Runtime, MapInfo Pro - on a server, there might be a problem using the MapInfo Map Object from Word and other programs using OLE. But of course if you never use the Draw Window tool, you can live with this.

The problem as identified by Paul, was the .mru file. However by making this file editable (by all) on the server itself, we have found that everyone can now run from the server version without any hiccups. >From Stephen Ware, (who also sent the archive bit) Apparently Proviewer can be run from the server but the "most recently used" file (Proview.mru) needs to be editable by anyone using Proviewer. I have not tried implementing this as yet. >From Ethan Hohneck This is not quite related but i thought you might be interested. We run ProViewer from a CD for some of our off site offices. We write the ProViewer Install from a local install and copy it to the CD. It runs fine, which leads me to believe that it doesnt use local registry files. From the CD ProViewer tries to write to the history file ProView.mru, but pops up an error saying it cant (due to the CD being Readonly). However if you edit the file ProView.mru to only have one entry and then write it to the CD, it does not produce the error. Thanks to all.
