    Hi Shiju,

    what happens? Any error messages?
    What OS? Version of ReportBuilder & Delphi?
    MDAC installed?

    hi chris
    its RB6.0.3 and delphi 5
    I have a try and except block with my launching of explorer - it bring up
    the error message - its not able to open explorer - it is very machine
    specific - the user is able to run the report explorer in other client
    machines and the server... but not able to run only from a single machine.
    we dont use ADO, we are using BDE.
    thanks
    Shiju

    Shiju,

    without having the exact original error message there will be less chance to help you.
    Can the user access any table for the given BDE alias?
    Did you check the BDE and its configuration for that machine?
