[DUG] Delphi 2007 & Vista

[russell]

Hi Charlie

 

I am not clear what is not working but this might be relevant . it might not
be.

 

If the program runs in XP but not Vista or W7 it may be you have hit the
Vista and W7 newer permissions topics. If the new program also does not run
in XP then these comments may not be applicable.

 

If it does not run in Vista, right click on the exe file and select "run as
administrator". If the program them runs Ok you likely need admin
permissions in your program to perform some operation. UAC = User Access
Control is where to start looking. Let this list know if this is the problem
and more advice can be given, Or google "Delphi and UAC".

Hi, Until Wednesday I was developing using an XP laptop with Delphi 2007 and
DBase files. My computer died and I borrowed my son's laptop which has
Vista. I installed Delphi 2007 with the 3rd party controls, copied my
program (.pas files) and recompiled my program. Actually I did this with two
programs. The second one runs both within the IDE and outside the IDE. The
first program will load the main form (outside of the IDE) but when I click
a button to open another form which is data dependent the form doesn't show.
Actually the application has exe's that are called in the onclick event of
the buttons; for example order entry, inventory, customer add/edit, etc. I
click the order entry button and task manager shows the exe is running;
however the form doesn't show on the laptop.

I sincerely appreciate any suggestions.

Charlie
