   As I recall, it was originally intended to let the BDE know that more than   
   one local application might be using Paradox tables, like, say, Paradox   
   *and* Quattro Pro, or PFW *and* PFD.

   Conventional wisdom is that there are circumstances where this setting had   
   some unintended benefits.  Put a different way, it probably won't hurt to   
   set Local Share=True on all workstations and see whether this has an impact   
   on your GPVs.
