As indicated above, executables are on the server.

Problem exists in 2 of the 5 sessions she has open.

Same program works on her boss's computer and when I log in using terminal
server.

One thing I had not mentioned previously is there is an @keyM function,
which works, that brings up a menu of the 22 @key functions.  The menu
options use GOTO @key to branch to the proper function.  When she presses
<O>, the routine does not function.

I went to the particular record she was trying to update and the @keyO
functioned as programmed.
