I thought i had a problem because the Windows error message was all about 64bit etc etc It turned out the client copied the folder from the old XP pc to this new Win7 64 bit pc. During this process, the data as well exe file became corrupted.
I managed log-in to their pc (showmypc) and noticed the exe picture was "odd". I always have a command window app in my app folders and that ran fine, so that confirmed my thoughts that the exe was damaged. Using this command app, i also found the dbf's were damaged. Once I installed replacement exe and restored from a backup, all was well. Beats me why Win7 thought it was to do with 32bit v 64 bit S On Fri, Jul 2, 2010 at 9:19 AM, Rick Schummer < [email protected]> wrote: > >> Anyone know of problems running exe's on 64 bit?<< > > If your app relies on ODBC you need to make sure they have the 32-bit ODBC > driver installed, and manage any connections through the 32-bit ODBC > Manager > if you are using DSNs. > > Also, look in the archives, I believe there was a 64-bit discussion last > month. > > Rick > White Light Computing, Inc. > > www.whitelightcomputing.com > www.swfox.net > www.rickschummer.com > > > [excessive quoting removed by server] _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[email protected] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
