Hi Jed, I have similar experiences on my home network. I have found that, on the local PC I'm sitting at, if I first open a folder on the remote PC I'm trying to access a file on, then any shortcut pointing to a file on that remote PC will open the file with no problem. Of course, this assumes you can get permissions to access folders on remote PCs, but it all comes down to ensuring active connections between PCs.

All fo these are shared across our network internally. here's my problem. We are running windows 7 machines, we9.4, and ehre's what happens. Each 1 of these files have a shortcut on the desktop. When i click on them they appear visually on the screen, however, window-eyes says the program is not responding When i hit alt f4, it says stuff like wait for the program to respond button and all that. Why would this do this? I have literally just had window-eyes running and none of our other programs when i click on these files. Any ideas? _______________________________________________ Any views or opinions presented in this email are solely those of the author and do not necessarily represent those of Ai Squared.
