16 bit and 32 bit application

Does any one experience a problem in sharing Paradox tables on the network
between 16 bit and 32 bit application?
Following are the environment and code used to initalize BDE

Both 16 bit and 32 bit applications are pointing to a Pdoxusrs.net on a
common directory.
Session.NetFileDir := GetCurrentDir;

None of the application are trying to open the table in exclusive mode .

I was getting "Multiple net file in Use, Network initialization failed"

Appreciate any help on this matter.

Thanks,

Sam.

GetCurrentDir returns the current directory. Which probably isn't the same
for every computer.
This might be more accurate
ExtractFilePath(Application.ExeName)
but you could still have problems.
You must make the directory a constant.

Uh... it is very simple, but are you sure that you have short (8 char) file
and directory names so the old 16 bit stuff can handle it?

Re:16 bit and 32 bit application

I should mention here, that I can run two 16 bit application or two 32 bit
application sharing the net file with out any problem.

Thanks,
