To go a bit further, we know of no greater error frequency due to
local networks. QB obviously intends that we use its multi-user
version that way. However, there have been many QB
recommendations against PC Anywhere type programs and we
see far more frequent corruption when we use them (except for
file transfers). Perhaps Windows Terminal Server and Citrix
will avoid most of these errors. We will soon try WTS.
