>> Thanks for the vote of confidence in ACCESS PC…I am anxious for a solution. I keep putting off networking my PC's, yet alone the nightmare of PC-Mac network. Lydell << We do a lot of work cross-platform and are very glad we got networked. It simplifies so many things and allows us to use our workstations more efficiently. Trading files is nearly painless. BTW it really is best to dedicate a machine as server. You don't want the overhead of having your workstation be a server too. As soon as someone trys to access a large file on your machine, forget about working until it is done. When we get back from Siggraph we will be converting out Lantastic Net with an NT net. It looks like it will be relatively painless (yeah, right!). We have been using Lantastic's LanMac product that works but is inflexible. The NT server has a Mac server protocal built-in. We are hoping to get our PC's, Macs, and SGI's all connected through the NT server. Terry Gilbert Forcade & Associates
