This may not be more attractive than suggesting a minicomputer, but
it's not clear from your posting that you are using the multi-user
versions of dBASE III or Paradox.  dBASE III PLUS LAN Pack is a separate
package you can buy to allow multiple users to access data.  dBASE IV
comes ready for use on a LAN, but you may have to purchase additional
user licenses.

Hope it helps.
