Group, Looking for ideas. I have one computer on my network that occasionally the shortcut loses it's propetie and assigns it something random. So if I had it set to "run in" my mapped drive, it will switch to something on the local computer. Anyone seen anything like this happen before? Suggestions? This machine is running Windows 7.

Powerful 5.6 performance-index for Windows Weight: 1800 grams Screen: 1600 * 900 As big as a A4 paper. Disadvantages: you need an adapter if you like to use a wide screen and an adapter for the cabled network.

Over the weekend my vehicle was broken into and they went through the backseat to the trunk. Of course my laptop was in there, a 2012 Dell 3750 with Windows 7 on it (not to mention a bunch of non-uploaded work in RBASE). This guy really scored in the electronics area on me (iPad 2, iPod classic, GPS, cell phone, etc.). I can't fully wait for my laptop to show up again but need to begin shopping again. I usually like to kill 2 birds with one stone. My company sends techs into the field and we usually use a PC at the sh op and a portable for field work but I'm thinking of combing now with the release of Windows 8 tablets. Which would lead me to pick up one to make sure we can deploy compiled 9.5 properly. Thoughts?

It makes an alternate solution far more practical. I've decided that best way to handle this is to on have one child form open at a time. The master form will orchestrate this. Will a little ingenuity, saving info on one form and opening another and repopulating it will work out just fine. Thanks to all who responded. As usual, the KISS principle applies.
