Hi
We have a situation where a BTRIEVE conflict in a Data update will occur on
some P.SQL 8.5 workgroup machines and not others.

If we run this update on the Server with 1Gb RAM the update run correctly.

If we try to run it from a workstation with 512K of RAM accessing the same
files on the "Server" it gives the following error.
BTRIEVE: Conflict RecordSave (Update GROUPS)
Error Number: 21080

If we use VDFQuery to look at the data from the server the files are
"connected"
The same data when viewed using the same exe running remotely from a
work-station shows the files to be unlinked.

That must swap like hell.<g>

From the PSQL help-file:
"The MicroKernel did not perform the Update or Delete operation because of a
record-level conflict. For example, station A reads a record, station B
reads the same record and updates it, and then station A attempts to update
the record. The application should reread the record prior to resending an
Update or Delete operation. Alternatively, the application can employ record
locks to avoid conflicts."

Can this be what's happening?

Not much we can do about the 512K of RAM - that is all the Armada E500
allows

Thank you for the suggestion - it worked just fine.

Really? My old E500 has 384M in it, 768 times more than your...

Glad I could help.

Oops. I am showing my age.
I meant 512Mb.
