Just checked my mail - had 182 copies of "DOS to windows".
Had some duplicates earlier today but this beats them.

Is anyone else getting the same email multiple times, or is it just me?

Grrr... I hate when I hear this stuff.... Converting a DOS system to
Windows 9.5, 32 bit. It's all going really well so far, but we hit a
regional form that is used in "enter" mode. In DOS, as they hit
[enter] from the end of the row to go to the new row, it
instantaneously puts them into the new row. In windows, it takes a
full 8 seconds before they are put into a new row (witnessed it with
my own eyes). Well, as long as they are multi-user. If they happen
to get the database single-user then it's instant. So they're keeping
this DOS app around until I can "fix" it.
There's a bunch of #DUP in the form, but I removed all of them to see
if it made a difference, but it didn't. It's based on a permanent
table, any experience that a temp table would work quicker for
entry? Or because the multi-user is an issue, do I just tell the
client "sorry it's not me, it's your network"?
