We have an ancient piece of software we use in our call center. Basicly, it is a foxpro database front end, shared out to all the clients over a server share. Randomly, a user one a machine will not be able to do a dealer locate in the database (alwast dealer locate, usually same 2 dealers). The same user will have no trouble doing a lookup on another machine. When the error occures, the message is the the file is marked read-only, or the user does not have suffecient permissions on the lan. And while one or two users may have problems with lookups, another user will have no problems at all on the same effected machine. All machines are identical make/model/and permissions. All had XP pro installed from an MS disk, they are not OEM installs. All share permissions and mappings are the same. Mappings are handled through GP.
At this point, I think I can safely say its not an MS share issue (though it could be) since it is specific in its target (only dealer locates fail).
Does anyone have any experience with Foxpro and feel able to tell me how to check the database for corruption?
Or anyone have any other ideas where to look for a solution to this weird issue?
EDIT:Anyone?
