Thanks, Keith, for your reply, but I am wondering why it's possible to read V9 files with the Btrieve (I think V6 version), but not to read V9 files with the...
Ari We are just going through an example of this sort of problem with one of our clients. They have had our Magic system for about 10 years, but now want to ...
in logic i have a counter. if the counter<2 than he most excute call "Artikel" i have set braikpoints and i see that counter are <2 but he doesn't go to call...
Teun Pervasive file structure has changed over time. Each version of pervasive can create files in its own native structure, and is backwards compatible to a...
Thanks, Sherman, that's clear and very nice Pervasive is working that way, so my first action at client site is installing Pervasive V9 and convert the Btrieve...
Online or Batch task? Where is the call (Task Prefix, Task Suffix, Record Prefix, Record Main, Record Suffix)? Do you have anything in the Task Properties "End...
Mike, I fully agree that we are the most business focused group of RADD developrs in the world. I fully agree with Omar that we offer increased productivity...
Hello Florian You are correct. It seem as though the problem was getting past a certain point in the file. As I said, mggenw.exe wrote to the file without a...
Ari, I think part of the issue is the corporate misconception that if a large organization "supports" a product, somebody within the organization actually ...
Hi Group, I have stored PDF files in blob format using MYSQL DB. Currerntly I am opening these files using ActiveX ('Microsoft Web Browser') the difficulti in...
. only Sherm can read his own code, trust me :P Yes of course it would be helpful to make our companies look larger than they are. You can reference them to:...
I think these ideas are good ones. I would suggest a slightly different approach. Tell them what you can do, then tell them what the competition cannot do....
If you stored the PDF in a blob using File2Ole then a zoom on the blob should result in Magic opening the PDF. Downside: if you restore a PDF from a blob that...
I can testify that we have customers that run applications for which we are not the original author of. We keep them working and we are available and capable...
This sounds like a great idea for discussion at the IUG meeting. You cannot blame our customers for wanting their companies security to rest on a broader base...
That is what I'm talking about right there! Get MSE to get on board with this. This is how you go on the offensive. I don't think we can sit back and defend...
You want the wolf to guard the henhouse? I think I'd prefer to give the client a list of trusted references and provide a mechanism (even an informal one) to...
I appreciate your point and I agree with your concerns. I learned that lesson the hard way back in the Novell days. But I just don't think you'll have the...
. then you better be able to defend the questions: "What happens if MSE goes under, as so many other development tools have?" "Who's going to make sure...
I am kind of with Sherm about the code itself. What about code that changes every week when not every day? This is frequent with Magic applications. Maybe...
Sherm, That would be ideal. My wife holds my superright key and knows to give it to my customers should something happen to me. That is so informal, I...
Hmmm....Well, I would rather defend my position with all the ammo I can get. I think saying that I'm backed up by: The manufacturer of the tool. A pretty long...

Omar, That is the function that cloud storage organizations like Mozy provide. I believe they are owned by Control Data which has been around since before...
Unfortunately, as well as the aforementioned misconceptions, there is the age-old English business saw: 'never trust a man who says "trust me..."' I am in the...
Just to add my 2 cents worth ..... "Magic" is considered to be a bad word at our parent company and it's simply because of the way it was attempted to be...
