Well, as I said up front, the way it stands for now it's gonna have to be strictly a Windows program. I threw it together using the compiler I had available at the company I work for, during a couple slow work days, so it's actually written in Delphi, because that was handy and I could cobble it together quickly. When I started, it was just to be a one-off to give me the data I wanted; I didn't start out with the intention of passing it around to anyone else. So portability wasn't really a consideration. I'm an old-timer (I spent about 20 years working strictly in assembler code on large-scale mainframes) and don't do much coding anymore. I'd be happy to see a younger generation do a re-write of the thing in something like Java, or Perl with a browser interface or something, if anybody wants to do that. But as I said before, you can run it against any LMS database, even if your LMS is on a Linux or Mac box. (My LMS runs on a Linux server, in fact.) You just need to have a Windows machine that can get to the database, either via a network or on an external drive or something. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Dogberry2's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=18883 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=101600 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
