Hello.____I^me looking for help about a trouble that i have on one of hours PC :__I can^t run (with rrwrun) or open (with rr.exe) any report on this machine. R&R returns the following message : __"Cannot open database table (table may be in use) : mytablename.dbf"____The problem is the same with .RP5 library or .RRW reports. ____I can run all my reports without any problems on all hour others machines, using the same databases, and the same __network login. ____Does anybody knows what appends ?____Thank-you for your help.____Pascal.

This error usually means that R&R cannot find the table in the location that was saved with the report.____Trying editing the file c:windows rw.ini and in the DEFAULTS section there is a DATADIR entry. Set that to the path where the table resides and see if that helps.____Regards,__Kathleen__R&R Support

The real problem was that the parameter "Allow other users to update database tables in use by R&R" in the Defaults settings was unchecked on this machine, but OK on all the others machines of the network.____It works well now.____Thank you.
