Error "Variable Msys not found" appears when I start FoxMed or FoxDent.

This error indicates that your computer has lost its connection with the 'main' computer on your network.  You should check that the network cable is connected snugly at both the back of your computer and at the wall, hub or server computer. This error will also occur if the server (main) computer is shut down. If that is the case, restart the server and your work station, then try to start the program again.  If the program still does not open, you will need to 'remap' your computer's network drive to the server.  If you're not familiar with remapping, call the support number and leave a message about this "variable Msys" error.

"Registration Error... User Limit Exceeded" appears when I start FoxMed (Dent).

This error indicates that the program is already running the maximum number of concurrent times that your license allows.  Usually this occurs when one user has inadvertently minimized FoxMed then started the program a 2nd or 3rd time on the same computer.  To correct that situation, close the multiple instances on the single computer to allow others to open the program on their computers.

My system seems to be running slower lately. What can I do?

There are several things that can effect the performance of your system. One of the more recent causes is anti-virus programs, like Norton Anti-Virus or McAfee Guardian, which are set to run in the background and scan everything.  This can slow a multi-user version to a crawl.  A more practical option may be to set the A/V program to scan only at startup or only when you are logged onto the internet.  If you do get onto the internet but are not using Anti-Virus software, you may have already picked up a virus which is slowing down your system as it spreads through your network.

Other procedures to help improve performance of your system are to 1) Reindex all files, 2) delete all temporary files in the "Windows\Temp" directory and 3) delete any temporary files left in the FoxMed (Dent) program directory.  (These temporary files will have eight numbers such as "52478193.dbf" for a name.) Contact us for other utilities which your support tech can run in addition to these suggestions.

Tips for running Monthly Statements:

We advise running an "Aged Balance Report" before you print your Monthly Statements.  Reviewing this report first will allow you to verify that accounts are not marked for "No Statement" incorrectly.  (This "A/R" report should be worked every month as should the "Insurance Claims Report".)

Immediately before running your Monthly Statements, please age all accounts.  You should be prompted to do that during the statement process.  Take this time to verify your Dunning and Standard Statement Messages as well.

Is your printer's toner cartridge running low?  Do you have a spare on hand?  You do  not want to run out in the middle of your statement run!
