    Migration from 9.1B Windows to Linux

    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...

    Migration from 9.1B Windows to Linux

    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...

    Calling Services

    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.

    How can I send images (photos) from USB port to Field RAW into a DATABASE

    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...

    ShowCFG parameters

    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.

    "Terse" Database Log File

    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 :)

    Progress or Microsoft.Net ?

    In my opinion, Progress and .Net have nothing in common. While Progress is a multi-OS 4GL with fully integrated RDBMS, .Net is only a common framework to multiple languages which is dedicated to Windows OS only (at last for the moment). If you choose .Net, you have to think about changing...
