Hi, I am writing a program in MacApp 2.0b5, and am trying to open documents which exist on an AppleShare network. When I try to open them, either with the Open... menu choice, or by an internal means which calls gApplication.OpenOld, I get Error -193 (Can't open resource file). This also messes with the file-system, because even after I quit, the system thinks that the file is busy (sort of like it half opened the file, then forgot about it). This same program works fine when run from a hard disk or floppy. The only trouble is that it must be on the network so that students can access it. Has anybody else had this or a similar problem? I thought that AppleShare volumes were supposed to appear exactly like normal disks. By the way, the AppleShare folders I had the documents in had read/write, etc privledges. Puzzled, D.
