We encountered a situation where a client in the field had their shortcut
pointing to the EXE on the server, and hence was running in a way we
didn't want.  We wanted them to run the version on their local hard disk.

I haven't run EXEs on servers since 1999.  Since then, I've used a loader
to copy the EXE locally and run it there.

Would SYS(5) show me that it's running from the LAN instead of the local
disk?   It'd be great if all I had to do was DRIVETYPE(SYS(5)) and fire a
messagebox if the resulting value was not 3.

I know there's many (?) devs here who run from the server yet, so I was
hoping you could easily/quickly tell me rather than me having to build
some silly test EXE and deploy run from the LAN here at Sylvan.

Tia!
