Have a database setup on a Win2000 Pro systems. Connect remotely to this pc, create share, but when try to open Database says something along the lines that file can't be opened. Any help on this issue would be a great help.

Thanks,

You are using the machine as a file server and opening the database by double-clicking on the icon? That's the *worst* way to share a file. Create a FMP server. Then open the shared files through the Hosts button in the Open command. Or create a opener file (see the FAQs forum).
