Jonathan,

        We currently have MANY pc's networked together, however we also have that same number of Sun Workstations. So why would I expect my users to use TWO different computers when they CAN accomplish the same functional job on only ONE machine. I have considered using Hummingbirds Exceed, but the "more reliable" platform that you spoke of, continues to give me "Application Fault" reliable messages then terminating my "reliable" programs. Also the apps that run on the Sun platform do so in a real client/server environment.
