This is what I need to do via a simple exe.
- after the Default installation of the BDE that my program install does. There is some unknown issues here on the "wow" aspect of the registry, vituralization keys and 64 bit vista. - Registry: give "Everyone" all rights on HKLM\Software\Borland - File System: give "Everyone" all rights on %CommonFiles%\Borland Shared\BDE - BDE Administrator System Panel: set the PARADOX TEMP-Folder to a valid folder (i.e. C:\Temp or C:\Windows\Temp) as vista no likey the root setting. - File System: give "Everyone" all rights on this TEMP folder From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Damon Theis Sent: Wednesday, January 07, 2009 9:19 PM To: delphi...@yahoogroups. Com Subject: [delphi-en] bde / vista Ok, so the old bde 5 has problems with vista, There are fixes out there. You have to edit the permissions in the registry, Create a folder off the root for the share of the .net config file, And then edit the bde config manually. I've documented this for user and even written a script for the changing of the registry permissions so they don't have to dig in regedit, But, they still can't do it. well, some of them. My question is, can I do this in a little app? I can set the folder, and the reg, but how would I change the bde config for the net share?
