Cmd Button needs 3-4 clicks to work !!

Hi All..

In my appln a vb 6 client application interacts with a DLL distributed as a COM+ application on a windows server.

Earlier a EXE used to work in the place of the DLL, As the exe crashed we are usinga DLL now. It worked fine for first two months.

TO generate a Label you need to hit a cmd button..nowadays. you need to hit it atleast 3-4 times for it to be generated..It simply is not registering the clicks.

Is there any pool/buffer that is used by a DLL COM Component which needs to be flushed in our case..?

Advanced Thanks...

Welcome to the forums.

I'm assuming you have the source for the app. Can you recreate the problem from running the actual source code?

Hi..

Lemme share a few more things abt this.
about 50 users use it at a time. The server on which the DLL is hosted as a COM+ component is a new server.

The appln runs i mean.. out of every 10 records which need labels generated all have the data populated.. then when the Print Button is clicked (which also generates the label and drops it in a folder (a text file) (File System Object used) ..that file is in turn being picked by another software which prints it.


The problem is before the file is created..It sometimes takes more than a couple of clicks for the file to be generated. Is there any buffer etc... I heard abt a file system buffer. The DLL uses Multi Threaded apartment
is there something that can overflow/clog here especially when used over the betwork.
(for the file system object)
