    Hello,

    We use the FileOpen, FileSeek, FileWrite in a heavy File I/O multiuser
    environement. We have encountered a situation under XP if the Enable write
    cache is on that our FileWrites do not get committed immediately. Thus
    another computer on the network does not see the added data that was written
    to the file.

    This application has been running for 4 years under 95 and 98 without
    incident. Has anyone experienced or seen anything similar? It seems when
    we turn the Enable write cache off it works.

    Any comments would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks in advance,

    James
