So set up a SkyDrive or similar folder on the server and copy error logs
up to that from the clients.
Which will work as long as the client has contact with the server, which it
may not. I do get unexplained VFP Error 1 "File does not exist" at
unpredictable times. This may be due to the dreaded Windows mapped-drive
time-out problem, or because the user is shutting down Windows at the same
time as my application. In the former case, it won't see the server; in the
latter it may also not have an internet connection.
I can do this stuff but considering the amount of error trapping and other
overhead involved, after which it's not guaranteed to work 100% of the time
when I need it, it just doesn't seem like there's much benefit for the cost.
As I said, I like the idea in principle but in practice...
Thanks.
