to the database while they're at the main menu. I'm not sure there's
any place in this app where it disconnects the database. I had also
searched every program for occurrences of SET NULL to see if I change
it anywhere to -0-, but I don't. Same for SET ZERO, I don't change it to
OFF in any program that I can find!
I remember somewhere reading about how some networks will "close"
open files that have been idle for a time, but I figure that even if their
network "closes" the open database and then has to "reopen" them when
there's activity that the database would still retain its latest settings, not
all of a sudden pick up some kind of "default" settings.

Are they being reconnected to the db when they start work again?
If someone has changed a saved setting in the db they would inherit that.
That is whay EVERY time I connect to a db I refrresh the correct setting.
I never fall into this trap.
