Thanks for your reply, Razzak. FYI, in Canada, Thanksgiving is on the 2nd Monday in October = Columbus Day in the U.S.
We just switched our 30+ users from the Full 7.6 version to the runtime 9.1(32) version. They were all using the RBase ODBC driver to attach tables from a separate database. So we'll need to find another solution for that. Once we straightened out the CFG files the problems disappeared except for our development team which has both the Runtime and Full versions installed on their computers. On these machines, when the runtime version starts it creates temp files and a RBG91_32.CFG file in the database folder. RBG91_32.CFG appears to be a shorter version of RBENGINE91_32.CFG. For now, I have added code to delete these files, but I would prefer to understand what's happening and prevent the files from being created. I hope you don't think I'm being critical. On the contrary, I love the new version!
