Abra was upgraded to a newer version of Foxpro. but I don't see how that would affect the TransferText funtion from importing a text file into Abra. He is going to try it from a Windows 2000 machine, to see if it's a quirk with NT 4.0.

Hi Drew: I have no specific knowledge of your site but as an outside observer this would be my approach: If it was a user I would ask (suspiciously, I might add) has there been any recent upgrades to the computers in question. (The answer is of course always, NO.) The problem might be with Abra...has it reach the 2 GB limit? (A lot of older databases had that limitation not just Access) If your accessing works fine maybe the Payroll guy is running some procedures that you are not? Is the Payroll guy using a different FE? if so maybe an update is warranted. This is a few of the questions I would check out.

Our Payroll guy has an Access .mdb which imports data from our Hours program (written in DataPoint), into Abra, our Payroll/HR package. A few weeks ago, that database stopped working, and it is failing on a line of code that is DoCmd.TransferText. It says it is unable to write to the database. It works from my machine (Windows 2000, running Access 97), but not the payroll guy's machine, (NT 4.0 workstation, access 97). Both have the same service packs, etc. Any thoughts?
