I killed NetDrive, and ran the viewer looking at a conventional mapped drive file and it ran cheerfully. Then I started NetDrive again and the viewer carried on working. But if I pointed it to the NetDrive mapped file, it did NOT update as the data changed. I suspect that doing it this way Windoze has first call on the server data so it carries on working. But if I can't get current data from NetDrive then it is not what I want anyway.
I think it would be best if I found an alternative to NetDrive to map my server via FTP to a local drive letter. In the meantime I am at least a lot further on than I was. Thanks for all your help, guys, and unusual apologies to Microsoft....
