      From: liz@paradoxcommunity.com              I'm with Tom. My users cannot comprehend that they need to close what's       inside the "Remote Desktop Connection" window *before* they close the       RDC window (in my case, closing what's in the window will close the RDC       window too).              You can make it so that when a user reconnects to a terminal server,       they reconnect to the same session. You can also make it (as we have)       so an app launches automatically and the user doesn't have access to       anything other than the app and closing the app closes the session. (if       you wish).              IMO, your users are closing the session and leaving Paradox running on       the server.              The really bad part, from my experience, is that timers seem to stop       running when the user does this (so my timers to close the forms       automatically after n minutes of inactivity only work when the session       is open; once the user closes the session, the timer seems to stop).              FWIW,              Liz                     Jim Moseley wrote:       > Tony & Steven (and all),       >       > The next time it happens, I'll try to login & use the LockWise tool Al       Brevelerei       > wrote to see how many users the BDE thinks are active.
