V4RB Sockets, Threads and Windows Crashes

[Cindy Brown]

Hi Ruslan,

It appears that I might have victory at last. In my assessments database, as
per the last email, I have a varbinary field. I had put this in for future
use but I don't require it at present. So I deleted the varbinary field
altogether. I have now run the clients and the server, both together,
entering over 600 entries on both clients at exactly the same time and it
has run without a hitch. Looks like the varbinary field is what was causing
my last lot of problems and with the removal of this, the database is
working perfectly.

I would suggest that there must be either a problem with the varbinary field
or there is a problem with reading data from a string into a varbinary field
(in fact I had no data in that field at all).

I will test this further after removing all varbinary fields from my
databases and see if this fixes the problem completely but at this stage,
fingers crossed, it all seems to be going fine.

All the best.
