Could be Dave. I have 12 Machines running XP in one office and have no
problems, YET. Let us know if you find the problem. This could pop up
on anyone's machine.
Are you mapping a drive to the server?? That is what I do. I map a
drive to the server folder and then put an icon on the client machine
starting up the application directly through the mapping. Works for me
but some frown on doing it this way.

All fox runtimes are available to the clients and the share has
read/write
permissions, this only affects certain XP machines.I suspect it has
something to do with the way the machines have been installed.
