Not within the Access model. We have only seen problems in the days of Win3.11 peer-to-peer networks, malfunctioning NICs and old RealTek drivers, low-cost dubious whitebox machines, and coax cables. Still peer-to-peer networks may cause troubles; using a true server and a fast and reliable network and brand name worksstations with WinNT+ causes close to zero issues. /gustav
