It'd be kind of cool to build, as a community, a list of each of our
FIRST successful uses of R:BASE.

Karen,
I have boxes full of old software applications that I will be getting
rid of in the near future as I get ready to download.
I believe I have every version of R:Base since MicroRim R:Base 4000
including disks and manuals. I have CLOUT, remember that? Also an add
on that was made available to add pictures to reports (WATCOM???) still
in the original box, I also have the brochure for an R:Base database
server version (can’t remember the name) that was never released.
The original Windows Version 5 had too many issue and I went back to
using 4.5 for DOS, the most solid version ever. After that, I stopped
using R:base for a while until Sami Aaron told me that RBTI had bought
Abacus/MicroRim and big changes were in the horizon. Seems like a
lifetime ago.
Javier,

Javier: Funny you mention that. A couple months ago on one of my
periodic purges of office papers, I ran across my Crystal Reports
instruction manual that came with that old RBase for Windows! I had
forgotten using that as the report writer, that was a pretty powerful
little piece of software! And taped inside were my little floppies.
Don't remember the virus issue. Floppies got tossed, manual went into
the recycle pile. I put only one of my clients on version 5.? I
wasn't real impressed with that early version and luckily waited around
for 6!

Paul,
I believe you would have to access the R:Base database from Crystal via
ODBC/Oterro and it should work OK…at least in theory, and you can start
Crystal from within an R:Base application, I do this with other
applications.
As a side note, the first version of R:Base for Window, version 5
something, included Crystal Reports as the report writer. The
distributions disks also included a virus and we were quickly notified
and send replacement floppies. If I recall correctly, this might have
been the last version for Microrim/Abacus before RBTI took over.

Good afternoon,
I’m running the latest update of eXtreme X.5, does anyone know if I can
print a report created in Crystal Reports from inside an R:BASE
application? I know I can recreate the reports with R:BASE, which I
plan to do, but because of a time crunch I’m in from delaying a project
because of COVID-19 I’m wondering if I can print them from my
application.
TIA,
Paul Buckley
