Bernie, I completely agree with you. If it's only installed on one machine, it shouldn't interfere with anyone else's access to R:Base. The R:Merge.cfg (in C:\WINNT on my PC) shows multi is ON (must be the default, I didn't change it) so how does it log into R:Base as a single user on your network? Does it connect to R:Base via ODBC? On my PC, I'm able to have R:Merge open and connected to a DB and still open a couple of instances of R:Base also connected to that same DB and R:Base reports that 3 users are connected... ~Claudine :)

Claudine, It is installed on only one workstation. This workstation is connected to the file server. The R:Base at this customer is an 11 seat license, but the R:Merge is only a single user license. What is stopping the connection to the database if the single user R:Merge is connected?
