I haven't had any problems with and CDROM running on a network. Once it's installed and mapped to a drive, other stations that can see that drive have access. As for whether the app is multiuser or not is another question. I've installed several CDROMs with the tax info packages from Matthew Bender and Research Institute of America for clients on Novell networks and used Map Assist to give access from any workstation. With MB the software installs on your harddisk and accesses information on the CDROM so it is possible to tweak it for multiple access. With RIA the access software resides on the CDROM and you specifically have to purchase a multiuser version. dave
