don't have a XP computer anymore as it died. But everything worked fine in XP.I
have UAC turned off.Charlie

Hi Charlie I am not clear what is not working but this might be relevant … it
might not be. If the program runs in XP but not Vista or W7 it may be you have
hit the Vista and W7 newer permissions topics. If the new program also does not
run in XP then these comments may not be applicable. If it does not run in
Vista, right click on the exe file and select “run as administrator”. If the
program them runs Ok you likely need admin permissions in your program to
perform some operation. UAC = User Access Control is where to start looking.
Let this list know if this is the problem and more advice can be given, Or
google “Delphi and UAC”. RussellFrom: delphi-boun...@delphi.org.nz

Subject: [DUG] Delphi 2007 & Vista Hi, Until Wednesday I was developing using
an XP laptop with Delphi 2007 and DBase files. My computer died and I borrowed
my son's laptop which has Vista. I installed Delphi 2007 with the 3rd party
controls, copied my program (.pas files) and recompiled my program. Actually I
did this with two programs. The second one runs both within the IDE and outside
the IDE. The first program will load the main form (outside of the IDE) but
when I click a button to open another form which is data dependent the form
doesn't show. Actually the application has exe's that are called in the onclick
event of the buttons; for example order entry, inventory, customer add/edit,
etc. I click the order entry button and task manager shows the exe is running;
however the form doesn't show on the laptop.I sincerely appreciate any
suggestions.Charlie
