- Release Notes for HammerSoft Address Book Version 1.0
- =====================================================
-
- If you are having trouble accessing any data files,
- keep the following in mind:
-
- 1) If your data file is on a local drive you MUST
- load SHARE.EXE to access the data. This is a
- requirement of the Microsoft Access Database
- engine.
-
- 2) If your file is on a network drive, you do NOT
- need to load SHARE. In fact, due to problems
- that SHARE encounters with the Novell Netware
- drivers, it is a good idea NOT to load share
- when accessing files residing on a network.
- What can happen if you do have share running
- while accessing data on the network is that SHARE
- will not release its locks on the file, causing
- you to get error messages about share after
- you have made changes or additions several times.
- The only way to recover from this is to reboot
- your machine.
-
- 3) If you have both a network and store your data
- on a local drive, you WILL have problems. It
- may help to set the SHARE.EXE line in your
- autoexec.bat file to C:\DOS\SHARE.EXE /L:500 or
- higher. This way share has more locks available
- to it and may not run out of them. If you do a lot
- of changes or new entries to your database with
- both share and Novell drivers loaded though, expect
- at least some problems with file locking.
