I have a general question.

We use terminal services to remotely access our Arev database.

People use a browser to the terminal server and then into arev

When they do this, Expanded Memory is not active.

My question is What kind of problems if any will I see when

expanded memory is not active for Arev?

I have not had any luck running Arev without some expanded memory since 1992, or maybe before.

For one site I ended up just running a memory check at arev logon and if the computer didn't have emm active (between 1MB and 4MB), it would just log the user right off (after giving the user a message about bad configuration).

All the problems are seemingly random and occur at different points in the application, just depends where the memory runs out.

I am doubly cursed having some Compaqs (no expanded memory) on a Novell network with Win 2000 work stations. The Arev system has been running for years with no memory related problems. I have had memory problems when I am creating large programs with subroutine calls and catalyst calls for windows. Forced to rewrite programs into smaller modules using "EXPENDABLE" in the header line. Also problems compiling programs near the 64k limit when I am in the editor. Must compile from TCL.

We are running lis on a network could those random errors

occur on other machines? Or will they be local to the remote

machine?

Each pc that gets an Arev session has to have expanded memory. It's not the server that hosts the arev files, it is the user's pc that runs the arev windows, programs, etc.

So the random error would occur on the pc without the expanded memory.

Well that's my answer, but I am not sure I understood your question, sorry if this is of the mark.

Thanks, you understood my question

I had a user with a PC with no expanded memory and their IT department did something in BOS with the USB settings disabling.
