I have a client who had their "computer guy" order a new round of machines. They came with 4 Gb of RAM so he got Win7/64 to take advantage of all of the memory. They have a bunch of 32-bit apps which seem to work okay, but... Win32 ODBC is hidden in Win7 and a bit tricky to work with if you have apps that need to access VFP6 or MySQL. How is it that clients are surprised there are a compatibility issues with each version of Windows, when they've occurred in every single version upgrade? -- Ted Roche Ted Roche & Associates, LLC http://www.tedroche.com _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[email protected] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
