Hi,

I have a clipper app running in a Win3.11 dos box with a Novell 4.11 server.
The program was compiled using clipper 5.3b and linked with blinker 4.1.
Lately the program gives nothing but GPF's. Mostly in the same piece of
code, but also randomly. I have altered nothing to the code wich now gives
the problems, but there have been some other changes. I'm migrating from
DBFNTX to DBFCDX. Some databases in the program use CDX others still NTX.
Does anyone know of problems with this mix?

An odd thing is that I cannot link the program with exospace. Exospace
reports a link error. Something about readmodal being duplicate. Indeed, I
use a third party library that redefines readmodal (cltext from dr. Huggle).
Using 'module...from...' does not solve the problem. I have tried everything
from Clipper support to dr Huggle support, but no one seems to have an
adequate answer to this.
Could it be that blinker 'overlookes' a problem wich then comes out at
run-time?

I have the same program running in a Win95 dos box without any problems.
Sometimes the program runs fine for a few days then the trouble starts
again. Does anyone have a clue?
