PS: If you want it to work like it did before

Enhance WBCONFIG.SYS with:

SPOOLPATH .
WORKPATH .

We found the same problem, but decided that we wanted to have better control over the folder. We execute the following upon startup EXECUTE "CONFIG SPOOLPATH "&SERVER_PATH$ EXECUTE "CONFIG SPOOLPATH @::"&CLIENT_PATH$ As long as this happens early during startup (WBCONFIG....

We used to be a strong Netware supporter, but they never got their Windows Driver to work properly. As you mentioned, disabling the Cache seems to work fairly well. Client Server is a game changer, it will require either a Linux or a Windows Server, but we experience 30 to 100 times performance impr...

You just answered your own question!

Make a new field "LEGACY_INVENTORY", or something like that. Then you can filter those records out (Sales Analysis should still work).

You can add an index by this field, then the list view will only Display Active_Inventory.

My first question is "What is unacceptably slow?". Ultimately, it's all relative. My second question, If this is a multi-user application, are you using client server? I would expect 90K entries to take about 14 seconds to load in Client Server Mode. The same query would take 125 seconds f...

I am using 4.20m without any issues. These problems are often brconfig.sys issues. I usually make a small BR installation with Bare minimum config options. Then I start adding back all the config settings. Also, try running the Debug version of BR, it might cause a crash dump that can help diagnose ...

I started playing with SQL in BR 4.3, and am wondering what to do about "Dates" in SQL. In FileIO, you typically use READ # ... :mat table_data$,mat table_data This works great in BR where we only have 2 data types. We have used both Char & Numeric Dates, so depending on the situation,...

Version is specific to the ODBC drivers. It's somewhat hard to check version, but in the ODBC control panel, there is a Drivers Tab, this can help Check the version. Crystal is sometimes "Ornery", so make sure your queries work in MS-Access before you attempt to use Crystal. (MS-Access is ...

PROBLEM: User is attempting to use crystal reports with ODBC the users gets error DATABASE CONNECTOR ERROR: "22003:[ADS][BRODBCDRIVER]OUT OF RANGE [DATABASE VENDOR CODE:1011] when they attempt to access a table. RESOLUTION: In Crystal Reports, there are several ways to connect. **MAKE SURE ODBC...

15 Clients seems like a small number, but we have found problems when running with Windows 2003 Server. It's actually the number of sessions and not workstations/users.

Windows 2008 Server does not seem to have these limits.

On the CD, there is a sample program in my section. CLSINC\CSV\CSV_EXPORT.WB My goal was to make this both an example of creating a CSV file using the "Mat2Str" command, as well as a usable example of using BR 4.3 to connect to an ODBC source. In my Example, I used an MS-Access Table, but ...

In BR 4.3, the EXE statement is now much faster than in BR 4.2 EXE in Line 30 uses the “*”, and Line 60 does not. In BR 4.2, Line 30 took over 2.365 seconds. In BR 4.2, Line 60 took over .0338 seconds. In BR 4.3, they are not only both similar in performance, but quite a bit faster! Stats Descending...

This is a Printing Command: PRINTER NWP [ROWCOL(ROW,COL)], "\E&aROWrCOLC" ! Set Position in Rows and Columns, Vertical, Horizontal. Use +- for Relative PRINTER PCL [ROWCOL(ROW,COL)], "\E&aROWrCOLC" ! Set Position in Rows and Columns, Vertical, Horizontal. Use +- for Relat...

I have created some simple HTTP programs, both as CLIENT & SERVER. My next step is to use a "CONTROL FILE" CONTROL=display-filename I assume that this would look something like : NAME=http://www.state.nj.us/dobi/bankwebinfo.htm,CONTROL=Control.txt, http=client Does anyone have a sample...

We often read a display file into an array, and the use the array for "Random Access".

We also sometime "Cache the Data" so that we have the "Last Few Records" stored in memory.
