I would first try disabling ipv6, and confirm you don't have server running on the same PC. I had problems with ipv6, but only with FMP9.

The Windows File Sharing settings will not impact upon Filemaker's ability to host databases; the database is not shared through Windows file sharing. I would advise against sharing the databases folder, because you don't want users double clicking databases to load them.

Thank for reply... I have read that link already...

I am not running server... have never installed it..

I could not figure out what they meant by or yourself.. what or how to disable ?

suggested turned off the TCP/IP v6,

Went to network connections,,, properties

couldn't find any mention of or show anything stating Ipv6 ?? or I am not in the right place

my own little blog with this anoying problem

I just keep hitting the OK everytime i get this buggy error.. I was stepping through some code today.. in a if statement, on a set Var command.. and the Same Share happened BUT WAS DIFFERENT compared to a few moments ago that it did not error was I Popped up my Data Viewer.. had only 6 vars didplayed.. (i wasn't in any deep loops or complicated ladder of code or processing any thing..

As said.. I spent $ took my XP to another tech who was pretty smart..found nothing wierd on my system...

EXCEPT i keep getting bugged by MS updates..

Is it that MS has finally caught up with this Filemaker 9 version?
