Hi Steve -

Depending on the error, this could be an issue with connectivity, or it
could be a minor workflow issue. There's solutions for both. Other than
more connections to a PC-based DB than we strictly recommend, it looks like
your network is ok

Please give me a call here in the office at 1-800-931-2230, x1104, and we
can talk about a few test situations you can try that may help. If you can
grab a screenshot or write down the specific error message, I will try to
target the solutions further.

Jocelyn
