Hi Randa,
Thanks much for your input. I never did very much with v14 at all. I guess it
is time to stat biting the bullet!

Good attendance, thanks Kirk.
For all those that didn't attend, you should have.

if the consensus were to be that moving from 4D v12 directly to 4D v15 is too

Run, don’t walk, and upgrade to Windows 10. Windows 7 is abandoned, unpatched,
insecure, and dangerous. Running Windows 7 is a huge welcome mat to hackers and
ransomware. Firewalls and security
Indeed. The "Execute on server” method attribute is very different from the
“Execute on server” command. The former says “Run this code on the server and
return a value” while the latter starts a stored procedure.

Hi Tom,
No, it does not use 4D Write. And, yes, I am aware of the 64-bit issue. I’ve
just been through this with two of my existing systems and am planning to
address this with this system. I will run a 64-bit compatibility audit on it
after replace the depreciated-stuff. This client is a

Just create a regular method, mark it as "Execute on Server" in the method
properties, then call it just like any other method. You can return anything
you want in $0
$myData:=ThisMethodRunOnServer(whatever)
Just make sure to check that little box in the ThisMethodRunOnServer Method
You could write code and check each field in each table checking for type.
I think field type 7 is a link to a sub table. If desired some ok me in my
company can do this part for you as well as the code to unlink and update
the data. I have done this before.
I might even do this part in 12.
Hi Olivier,
I am looking for SIMPLE, alright.
I have looked at ‘execute on server’ but I do not see how it sends anything to
the client other than the process number (in $0).
What have I missing about it?
I used it in the past (when I made a ‘communicator’ subsystem in classic 4D)
but it
Hi Chuck,
Thanks! I totally agree with you and was anticipating these changes. I have
just one really dumb question… In all my years using 4D, I have NEVER used a
sub-table. Just how would I recognize if this structure includes and sub-tables?

Hi Ken,
Does this app use 4D Write? If it does, and if you ever think this app will
move beyond v17, you gotta think about 64 bit, if you haven’t already.
Also, Chuck mentioned getting pictures converted, but there’s more to 64bit
compatibility. Would be good to run a 64 bit compatibility

Second here are some potential ares of concern that you will need to deal with
1. Are there any sub-tables. If so I would recommend creating new tables and
moving data in v 15
2. There are probably obsolete pictures in the db.
I have modified my Document to text wrapper that functions like Receive packet.

Hi all,
I’m solicitating your opinions.
I’ve picked-up a new 4D client. They have an existing 4D system (v12 running on
Win7) that has been stagnant for quite e few years. I believe it was originally
written under 2004 or maybe even 6.8.5. They’re looking to replace their
computers with Win10

API Pack works with versions of 4D as far back as 6.7 so you can just swap
out the version that you’ve got for the current version = zero code.
If the ZIP plugin isn’t compatible with V17, I think Miyako has a plugin
that does ZIP. Lacking that, you could fire up something with AppleScript

Indeed.
Wayne reminded me the other day that this was 4 years ago on the road trip to
Portland by sending a picture of the golden gate.
Is was great to see you then and I hope to do so again soon.
Can't make tonight I'm afraid, but if it works, and you go again...
Have fun and I send my best
Lo!
I was thinking about you the other day - recalling you stopping by in '16.

Maybe too simple for what you need to do, but have a look at the "execute on
server" property for project methods.
Create a method that is executed on server. It gets as $1 the id of the
document you want to display on the client side. The method does everything to
fetch the document from the
I have a methodology of allowing clients to transfer documents that are
thereafter stored by 4D Server in a ‘LIBRARY’ of system documents it maintains
automatically. [these are not stored in the DB, but in a managed folder on
disk.]
I do this by:
