Thanks for the feedback everyone.
I built the server and got it to be the master browser, tested, same
inconsistent results. Now I am completely flummoxed.
It seems to me in a multi-user environment that if user_1 is viewing a
table and user_2 changes a field that user_1 should see the field
contents updated within the set refresh rate. I thought this would apply
equally whether viewing a table displayed or via form.
Barring any other ideas I guess I'll have to come up with a different
strategy for syncing.
