The last time I checked the Developer Edition had a limit of three concurrent sessions, and once you hit that limit you were forced to restart webdna -- because it wouldn't clear the "concurrent session counter" until the engine was restarted. So when did they make this change to a unlimited session Developer Edition??? Sincerely, Kenneth Grome On 08 May 2006 11:00:00 +1000, Marko Bernyk wrote: > LOL...
