Hello Everyone, we are running a program that runs a stored procedure. we access the program via RDC. the stored procedure can take a long time to run so we disconnect from the session and return later to do more work. the problem is that when we disconnect and then return later the desktop GUI is all white (looks like the RDC is not storing the desktop image) and remains all white until the stored procedure finishes and refreshes the screen. we have tested this on different machines with XP, vista or 7 all with the same results. can anyone tell me how to get the RDC to store the desktop GUI image? or if there is something else going on. Thanks

its a custom application written in unipaas running the stored procedure in a pervasive databaseG Fugier

we have tested server 2003 and 2008 both r1 and r2 with the same symptoms.G Fugier

have you tried the system file checker on all machines? My MVP is for the Windows Desktop Experience, i.e. Windows XP, Vista and Windows 7 IT I am best with C++ and I am learning C# using Visual Studio 2010 Developer | Windows IT | Chess | Economics | Hardcore Games | Vegan Advocate | PC Reviews

Then likely there is some server problem. Go over to the support for your SQL engine and see what they have to say.

ran it over the weekend on all machines. still getting same symptoms.G Fugier

we went that route first and they suggested there is a windows problem redrawing the screen during the run of the SP.G Fugier
