Jan,
Did you use Windows Explorer to see that the network drive associated with the shortcut is available ? You will see a red X in Windows Explorer for network drives not connecting. I'm sure you've already checked this condition. I've seen instances of shortcuts not working when the assigned network drive is unavailable. It coincidently happened on network computers running Symantec Corporate Anti-virus and Windows 7 if that's a clue.
I have never seen shortcuts changed without explanation.
Hope this helps.

Group,
Looking for ideas.
I have one computer on my network that occasionally the shortcut loses it's propetie and assigns it something random. So if I had it set to "run in" my mapped drive, it will switch to something on the local computer.
Anyone seen anything like this happen before? Suggestions?
This machine is running Windows 7.
Jan

    Jan,
    Have a look at Asus Zenbook.
    Powerful  5.6 performance-index for Windows
    Weight: 1800 grams
    Screen: 1600 * 900
    As big as a A4 paper.
    Disadvantages: you need an adapter if you like to use a wide
    screen and an adapter for the cabled network.

    Rats!
    Over the weekend my vehicle was broken into and they went through
    the backseat to the trunk.
    Of course my laptop was in there, a 2012 Dell 3750 with Windows 7
    on it (not to mention a bunch of non-uploaded work in RBASE). This
    guy really scored in the electronics area on me (iPad 2, iPod
    classic, GPS, cell phone, etc.).
    I can't fully wait for my laptop to show up again but need to
    begin shopping again.
    I usually like to kill 2 birds with one stone.
    My company sends techs into the field and we usually use a PC at
    the sh op and a portable for field work but I'm thinking of
    combing now with the release of Windows 8 tablets. Which would
    lead me to pick up one to make sure we can deploy compiled 9.5
    properly.
    Thoughts?

        I'm surprised no one piped up to tell me "CLOSEWINDOW alias"
        was already available.
        It makes an alternate solution far more practical.

        I've decided that best way to handle this is to on have one
        child form open at a time.
        The master form will orchestrate this.
        Will a little ingenuity, saving info on one form and opening
        another and repopulating it will work out just fine.

        Thanks to all who responded.
        As usual, the KISS principle applies.

        Actually, it looks like what I am looking for is a set of
        commands like this:
        SETFOCUS alias (already available)
        SHOW alias (makes it visible)
        HIDE alias (makes it invisible)
        CLOSE alias (does a closewindow on it)

        Did you know that you can create any form object dynamically,
        including
        the Component ID, using the CREATEOBJECT command?

        For complete details and examples, refer to:
