[RBG7-L] - Re: RBase 7.5 & 8

[David M. Blocker]

Karen   ANother alternative is to NOT run 6.5++ windows at all - just 6.5++ DOS and 7.1 windows. 6.5++ windows is actually only needed by the developer to help with converting forms and reports.   David   David Blocker [EMAIL PROTECTED] 781-784-1919 Fax: 781-784-1860 Cell: 339-206-0261 ----- Original Message ----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: RBG7-L Mailing List Sent: Monday, June 21, 2004 4:19 PM Subject: [RBG7-L] - Re: RBase 7.5 & 8 Now that we're talking about 6.5++ and 7.1 simultaneously, I have a client on 6.5++ Dos and Windows.  We'd like to convert the Dos app slowly to 7.1, but we don't want to maintain 3 front ends, 6.5++ dos (until it's all converted), 6.5++ Windows and 7.1.    So has anyone scrapped 6.5++ windows exe's and run all your 6.5 apps, forms and reports from the 7.1 executable?    Then we'd just have a 7.1 front end for the existing and new windows apps (although I'm sure it would still look like 6.5 for the "old" stuff) and the rapidly disappearing Dos front end. Karen 6.5++ and 7.1 running on the same database right now.  It makes conversion a lot easier - I'm doing one app at a time. Dawn
