Is there a way to create a memory resident table?



Common variables will not work, since I need multiple users to access the information thru memory.



Is this possible?

<QUOTE>Memory resident in the same way SYSTABLES etc is? Is this to be read only or do you need to update also?



Would a RAM disk work?

<QUOTE>Good question... I don't know... hmmm...

Ok, it will not be read only, that I know.



I have been thinking... A memory resident table might not work because, I believe, you can not share memory between users. Right?



And hmmmm... ram disk has that same problem.



I think I am asking OI to do something darn near impossible.

<QUOTE>Well you could theoretically play with Network DDE but no - not easily. It should be achievable as http://www.dkl.com/products/nettables/ shows but it would probably need more work than could be justified.

<QUOTE>You could be onto something here Pat - mind you if it was that good an idea surely someone would have tried it years ago ;-). 



In any case - enough RAM on the server and it's already virtually a RAM disk .
