Hi Alejandro,

There are a couple of unknowns in your equation, which might be a potential
source for problems.
You say you have 2 PC's. Does that mean the tables/files in question is
located on a file server ? And if so, what networking access do the 2 PC's
have ?

As far as I know, MapInfo always opens tables in read+write mode if
possible. When you say "... but in a ReadOnly mode", I assume that you talk
about using the MB statement "Open Table ... ReadOnly". I'm not entirely
sure that this implies that the actual file opening is read-only, just that
the table is write-protected in your MB program. But maybe other people on
this list have different opinions and/or experiences ?

A way to test it, provided you're using a file server, would be to only
grant PC2 readonly access in the network share setup. Then MapInfo is
forced into opening the table readonly. Maybe that'll solve it ?

And I don't think anything has changed since 5.0 in this respect.

Best regards
Lars Nielsen

Hi all !

I have a problem and I need help please !

We use Mapinfo v5.5 and MapBasic program compiled over 5.0. The platform =
is Windows 2000.

We have two PC.

On PC 1 I have a very simple MapBasic application updating all time a =
table (inserting, deleting, etc). This application Open the table in a =
FastEdit mode and inmediatly after inserting, deleting, etc I do a =
Commit Table. (So, I think never are there pending changes for more that =
miliseconds or a few seconds !). Also we set the File TimeOut 100.

On PC 2 I just open the same table but in a ReadOnly mode. Also I have =
set the File TimeOut 100.
The problem is that when I want to pan, zoom, etc sometimes (almost =
allways), appears the next message error:
    Cannot access file XX.dat for reading.
    Please be sure that this file is not open in another application.

Is it possible to fix this ?
The newest release, fixed this problem ?

I will appreciate a lot your help

Best Regards
Alejandro
