Hi Paul,
this I understand, what I don't understand is why the same program should
behave differently on different systems.
The AIFChangelogone is done for specific purposes, e.g. change to
manager.sys briefly to get account details of a different account, and then
revert back to the original account.
This is working on our systems (and loads of others), but not on the
customers system, and we can't work out what is different.
Thanks
Pete
