New Paradox/BDE questions/problem
Client just added WinXP computer to his network. He now get "unable to connect to lockfile" or "Unable to initialize BDE" when attempting to start Paradox 8.

Any suggestions?

TIA
When they took the Fourth Amendment, I was quiet because I didn't deal drugs.
When they took the Fifth Amendment, I was quiet because I was innocent.
When they took the Second Amendment, I was quiet because I didn't own a gun.
Now they've taken the First Amendment, and I can't say anything about it.

New Only from the new XP box, or all machines? Some links...
...that might hopefully help. (It may be best to download the text files from Borland and read them in a text editor; IE doesn't seem to want to do word-wrap on them.)

If all else fails, maybe this will help you get at your data without using Paradox and the BDE: [link|http://www.logicomm.it/en/pdxhak.html|PdxHak and PdxHakRecover]

Your lies are of Microsoftian Scale and boring to boot. Your 'depression' may be the closest you ever come to recognizing truth: you have no 'inferiority complex', you are inferior - and something inside you recognizes this. - [link|http://z.iwethey.org/forums/render/content/show?contentid=71575|Ashton Brown]
