The information in this article applies to:

- Microsoft CodeView for MS-DOS, versions 3.0, 3.11, 3.14, 4.0, 4.01, 4.05, 4.1 
- Microsoft CodeView for Windows, versions 3.0, 3.05, 3.06, 3.07, 4.0, 4.01, 4.1 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS
========

When you run CodeView from a network and exit the program, CodeView does not
update the CURRENT.STS file. This occurs on both Novell NetWare and Microsoft
LAN Manager networks.

CAUSE
=====

You do not have permission to create and write to files in the root directory of
the file server.

RESOLUTION
==========

Request from your system administrator privileges to create and modify files in
the root directory of the file server.

MORE INFORMATION
================

CURRENT.STS is the state file CodeView and Programmer's WorkBench (PWB) use to
store editor and debugger configuration information between sessions. The file
allows CodeView and PWB to start a subsequent session with the open files and
window configuration present in the previous session.
