Re: Windows 2000

     Diane,
     
     In addition to changing the environment variables as had been 
     previously discussed, you also need to run CODE/400 as either an 
     administrator or power user.  Some users have said it can be run using 
     the normal user profile, but we could not get this to work, and IBM 
     said to run under admin or power user.
     
     After changing the environment variables and running under power user, 
     we have not had any problems that I know of with Win2000.

Is anyone having trouble running Code/400 with Windows 2000?  Recently 
acquired a new pc with Windows 2000.  Everything I have read so far about 
Windows 2000 states how stable it is.  I seem to be locking up frequently 
and cannot even ctrl-alt-delete to get out of it.  I continually have to 
hit the reset button which takes my system completely down.
     
On several instances, I have been in Code/400 Designer and the system has 
locked.  After I reset my machine and then try to open my dds file again, 
the AS/400 thinks the file is in use and will not let me in until an IPL. 
Even with a "WRKOBJLCK," nothing shows a lock on this file.
     
When I was running Windows NT, I definitely did not have these kind of 
problems that the "stable" WINDOWS 2000 seems to be giving me.  I have been 
searching the internet for suggestions, but cannot come up with any solution 
to my problem.  Other users in the office also seem to be experiencing this 
"lockup" problem, but they do not run CODE/400.  Several have noticed that 
they were in MS-WORD when it happens to them.
     
Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated!
     
Diane
