Hi Bart,

thanks for the code (despite the flu).

This can only work, when the application resides in the same folder  
as the database and this is never the case.

Ruslan, you are a great programmer, but your manuals are very sub- 
optimal. The examples for ADK have a valid folderitem. And the  
examples for the server don't open a database! So please: how do I  
obtain a valid folderitem to open a server database when I only have  
an IP address.

Anyone? What am I missing?






Mit freundlichen Grüßen/Regards
