Gaston - I can't offer any help other than reassuring you that Dxbase 2007 runs fine here under Vista business edition. I have auto update since 2007 and dozens of MS updates to the OS have been installed without bothering Dxbase at all. I do, of course, run as Administrator all of my legacy programs that were designed for older operating systems such as earlier versions of WIN. Unfortunately that includes Dxbase which has not had an update in several years but is still useful.
My hobby is amateur radio, not computers, so I don't mind if the software wants to "protect me" by having features that some consider too paternalistic. But, that's just me. I don't know whether you will be attending DARC Ham Radio in Friedrichshafen in June, but if so, please stop by the ARRL stand and say hello. 73 Larry, W4RA [email protected] > -----Original Message----- > From: Gaston Ronsijn [mailto:[email protected]] > Sent: Saturday, April 11, 2009 10:07 AM > To: [email protected] > Cc: [email protected] > Subject: [Dxbase] DXBase 2006 installation, Vista SP1, MFC Application > does not work any more. > > Hi, > > Due to a computer crach, I had to buy a new pc.
