Karen, This is a long shot. I have seen the RBASE.CFG's show up on client workstations even though the CFG is on the server. Maybe that could cause the date wierdness.

RBase is installed on the server, DLL/CFG moved to installation directory. Workstations (mixture of Win 7 and XP) are running RBase from the server with -a parameter. Only problems noted are all printing related (both to the screen and printer).There are random fields in a few reports that print perfect when I'm doing it dialed into the server, but are blank on the workstations. The fields are text, either Arial or Courier New. I cannot play alot with field length/height because they are going on preprinted reports. At other times, reports without a display format defined for a date field will print out 4-digit years even though both sequence and format are 2-digit. The problem with this is that they claim it works for a while showing 2 digits, then all of a sudden goes to 4 digits, then back to 2 digits... I've searched and there is nowhere in code where I change the date format, nor do we import/export files. (Again, it works perfectly on the server) In the past, they had 7.6 installed locally on every workstation. I did not bother uninstalling RBase 7.6 on the workstations or on the server since I've seen no indication at other clients that it would interfere with running 9.5, and all the filenames used are different between the 2 versions.I wanted to get away from local installationin 9.5. Do you think I need to install locally or uninstall 7.6? I can fix the 2/4 digit year by modifying every report to put a display format, but this random skipping of fields is a deal-breaker that has to be figured out. Thanks for any suggestions you might have! Karen
