Thanks for your answer Gordon. Well, I know that all of this seems to be a bit weird, but this is a specific request from a customer who doesn't want to buy any Windows server. If I can proove that a Windows server is cheaper that all these new licences + the extra time needed to compile and...

I'm currently working on a Progress 9.1B application , which is only available under Windows (mostly 2k/XP/2k3). This app can use a Progress database or an Oracle databse (using an Oracle dataserver from Progress). In a specific case, I'd like to launch two procedures with a Linux Client...

Version 9.1B works fine under Citrix Metaframe. Version 9.1D should work aswell. Bon courage Stephane.

A little tip : when you try to search which application is linked to a given extension (.doc, .rtf, .csv, .pdf....), you should better do this like that : Second, I have a problem when using this statement under Windows XP or Windows 2000, with a non-administrator user. It seems that...

Thanks for the link. It seems to be a very nice tool!

Instead of find current param-file no-lock no-error. use Release param-file. This will free the lock.

What are you calling a 'service' ? Something like a 'web service' ? Progress can easily run windows Executable, but I'm not sure about Java, C Sharp and the others.

I think that the easiest way is to use a 3rd-party product that do all the acquisition job, and save the picture somewhere on the harddisk. Once this is done, you go back to your progress application, and import the picture in your database. All I know about RAW field is that you cannot...

The answer is there (_procfg.w in protool.pl) : there's a tool called showcfgd.exe that export the cfg file out : %DLC%\bin\showcfgd.exe c:\yourcfgfile.cfg > c:\result.txt This produce a readable ASCII file (result.txt) that contains all the products and serials installed.

Good Idea ! Thanks for the tip Mike :)

Well, I don't have the answer but I'm interested too !! Anyone ?

Hi Peggers, Let's say we have a Progress Server running under Windows NT or Win2k (I'm currently running the 9.1B version...but it could be any V9 version) How is it possible, for a remote computer, to know how much databases are running on this server, what are the names of theses databases...

Norman, I have never heard of that kind of option, but it's obvious that it would be very nice if it would exists. The 'must' would be to create a progress logfile analyzer which would filter the unwanted informations. A nice challenge :)

The error come from the ST file used to generate the multi db file : # b c:\test\mydb.b1 # d c:\test\mydb.d1 f 1500000 d c:\test\mydb.d2 f 1500000 d c:\test\mydb.d3 is a working ST file. Shame on Me :blush1:

[SOLVED] Multi Volume possible with a Workgroup licence ? Windows 2000 Server Sp3 + Progress 9.1B Is it possible to make a multi volume database with a Workgroup licence ? here's what I am doing : First I create an ST file for my MV database : # b c:\test\mydb.b1 # d "Schema Area":6,32...
