My network sounds like yours. When we bought our site license for
Print Shop Deluxe, we asked about running it on a network.
Broderbund told us NOT to run it from a server. Instead, I
copied the disks to network directories, and installed on
workstations from there. You can still make an item file for
PSD if you wish. Just have the item file call PSD from the local
drive.
I realize this is not the answer you were looking for, but it
works for us...
