But in all my tests, if you change the DATE setting at one workstation, even
if only temporarily, another workstation does NOT see that setting. You can
try it by opening up 2 sessions on one computer. Change the Date setting
on one, show the date on the other and it isn't changed. And this is when the
same user is changing it, so there's the greater possibility that RBase could
get "confused", but it doesn't. Am I wrong?
The only thing that could go wrong is if that person's workstation does not
change the setting back to what you want and then is the last person to
exit the database. Without the settings being done in a startup file, then
his setting would affect everyone else.

The application changes a few of them temporarily, then changes them right
back. For example, to print collection letters, Zero is set off for
formatting purposes, then set back on less then a minute later. However, if
someone adds a record during that period, the computed column that tolals
the $$ amounts becomes null because there is posibly a null in one of the
columns being added.
