Hi,

I have a probleme here with a computer on the network. Whenever it tries to open a file on the fileserver (fileserver is hosted on a win98 box) SOMETIMES it gives the following error.

A document named " " is already opened. You cant open 2 documents of the same name if both are located in different folders. To open the second document close the opened one or rename one of those. (note that this has been translated from the error message in french.)

So i was wondering if that could be caused by the fileserver hosted on p75 with Win98, its pretty old and could give some errors like that if the access is too slow or something, just wanna have your input on this.

Regards,

Eric

It is possible that someone, on the network, opened the document, and minimized it. When this happens, go to the fileserver, and click on Start, then Accessories, then system tools, then netwatcher. See if someone else has that same file open. Hope this helps.

Il est possible que quelqu'un, sur le réseau, ait ouvert le document, et l'a réduit au minimum. Quand ceci se produit, allez au serveur d'archivage, et cliquetez dessus le début, puis accessoires, puis outils de système, puis netwatcher. Voyez si quelqu'un d'autre a que le même dossier ouvert. Espérez que ceci aide.

Steve
