No no no. I have one copy of Superbase (ok at the moment 2 but that's a debug situation). The data files (including forms etc.) however happen to be resident across the LAN. The only s/w actually touching the file should be ENLAN on the server with Sbase working on the image of it presented locally at the other Amiga. I don't see any reason this should require the files be 'SHAREABLE'. I am growing suspicious that you however have changed sBase so that it attempts to open the file in such a manner and ENLAN rejects it because it doesn't supt that option. It could be argued that ENLAN needs to add this support but since it's your product I upgraded and stopped working, I'm following up on this end first. Besides you just need to undo a recent change where ENLAN would be adding features. Whatever you changed, it apparently isn't needed in my current environment and in fact breaks it until you get the net version running. I'ld stongly suggest making this some sort of configuration option in the non net version. Also if you can tell me specifically what changed or talk to the ENLAN folks directly about what could/should be changed in that software, it would be appreciated. BTW thanks for taking the time on this. lGlamb+RV13@rvdc.unisys.com FROM CTOS
