Define "terminates". How does it "terminate"? Are there any error messages? Is it a run-time error? Is it an internal error? Is it an application GPF? Does the DOS box throw a GPF? -- Take a look in Hagbard's World: \| w3ng - The WWW Norton Guide reader. http://www.--.com/ \| eg - Norton Guide reader for Linux. http://www.--.com/ \| weg - Norton Guide reader for Windows.

Hmm, there are several possibilities: 1) NIC drivers - make sure you use the manufacturers, not the W98 ones. 2) Set the frame type explicitly in Network / IPX/SPX-compatible protocol / Advanced to the one used by the server (usually 802.2) - not Auto (the default). 3) Apply the latest patch (IWSP6 ?) from www.support.novell.com HTH -- Nick Ramsay WitzEnd Computer Services

David G. Hol #3 / 4	Clipper 5.2e + Exospace + W98 + Novell 4 Here's what you can have your users do to let them report the error message to you: Right click on the program icon, then select Properties. On the Program tab, uncheck the "Close on exit" item. Then click on Ok. Now when they double click on your program icon, the DOS box will stay open after your program terminates. -- David G.

Have them run the process from an already open DOS prompt, rather than from an icon. Then, you will see the error message. -- Oasis WWW http://www.iag.net/~philb/ FTP Site ftp://ftp.iag.net/pub/clipper Clipper FAQ http://www.iag.net/~philb/clipper.html Your willpower is the steering wheel and accelerator of what happens next in your life.
