I havent noticed it as I have always expanded the path to unc and beyond
so that no matter what form they give me for the path, it always
evaluates to the same string.
Another thing that may effect you is that on 64 bit server using TS -
constant crashes are being attributed to this issue.
How do you expand the path to UNC?
The reason I am surprised in a way that MS have done this is that using mapped
drives added a layer of abstraction from the server – if a server had F: mapped
to \\SERVER01\DATA then the server could be replaced, the mapping moved to
\\SERVER02\DATA on the

What I was meaning was more on the lines of a project I worked on where
problems came from the database connection details came from an ini file, but
because the main form or the datamodule were created before the ini file was

on DM2, however that's no guarantee that it

Hi,
I have a report from a Windows 7 user that a message from my app does not
show unless XP compatibility mode is selected.
The code that should fire is:
messagedlg(msg, mtCustom, [mbOk], 0);
It is being ignored when run under normal Windows 7 default mode.
Any ideas?

example, but is intended only to

Are you sure that it is the message display that is being suppressed and not
some change in the runtime conditions that lead to your application even
attempting to display the message in the first place?
