   what runs when Paradox starts up?

   Hello all,   
      
   Just started a new job where paradox is used extensively, which i like because   
   i've used Paradox a lot before.  Problem is the environment is very cluttered,   
   with files and folders spread out all over the network, multiple clients   
   having different aliases defined, different network drives mapped, and using   
   separate copies of the data.  i think we need some central location for all   
   the data files, databases, scripts, forms, etc.  I'm attempting to get it   
   so that we are all on the same page.   
      
   My question is - what runs automatically when paradox starts?  We have a   
   lot of problems with it when we start, sometimes it's very slow to start   
   and i wanted to check and see what it's doing behind the scenes at start   
   up.   I know it's doing stuff automatically on start up - e.g. sometimes   
   when i do nothing other than start it, it will pause a long time, and sometimes   
   a whole bunch of new aliases that i never heard of will suddenly appear in   
   my alias list.   
      
   Does BDE tie in to this?  Is that the route to go to centralize all our files   
   and make sure everyone is accessing the same files in the same place using   
   the same aliases?   
      
   Thanks for any replys
