then I had to also reinstall progress on a few workstations as well

> No local copies of vantage.ini, no unique files vntgwork. This is a
report builder report being run from within vantage. They have
vantage mapped to the u: drive. Version 3.00.613. Can access vantage,
all vtgs mapped to u:. win95, on nt. For some reason the report
appears to be looking in the V:\dlc for the convmap. Customer has the
Convmap.cp file in the U:\dlc directory.
