RE: v4r5 netserver excel problem

[qsrvbas@xxxxxxxxxxxx (Tom Liotta)]

It's hard to say what "plenty" is. I can create a .xls on a Win2K Pro at SP3 
with 192MB and a 500Mhz processor and save it via Windows Network Neighborhood 
to a shared folder in the /root path on a V4R5 system, then jump over to a 
WinNT 4.0 system w/80MB of RAM, a 166Mhz processor and half the disk (and far 
less than half the amount of unused disk) and open the spreadsheet in MS Excel 
2000 with no problems. Actually, Excel 2000 might even run just a touch faster 
on the NT machine (though OpsNav is significantly slower with a bit higher 
reliability).

In any case, 256MB ought to be plenty to open a spreadsheet. I suspect there's 
more to this.
