Hi Leston,

Are you at a work station and launching a MetaCard app which resides on the
server, or are you just using the server as a data base?

Also, are you launching via aliases or any security software, or are you
double-clicking right on the app itself to load it?

I can share with you some experiences I've had with Tiny Toons, At Ease and
MacManager if this is helpful for you.
