VB-based ActiveX control in PB 6.0
Has anyone had success constructing a VB 5.0-based ActiveX control and embedding it in a PB 6.0 window? When inserting the control into the PB window, I get a run-time error number 80004005. I can insert the same ActiveX control in a VB applicatoin, and I can also construct JavaBeans, register them as ActiveX controls (jactivex), and insert them into PB 6.0. What's the deal with VB-based ActiveXs???? thanks, nurk. -- Tom Nurkkala, PhD tom.nurkkala@powercerv.com ...

PowerBuilder Bugs: Using VB ActiveX control (OCX) in PowerBuilder 6.0
I'm going to write some VB ActiveX control (using Microsoft VB6.0 SP3) to be used in PowerBuiler 6.5, but I found that it's very easy to crash in PowerBuilder, Here is the test case: 1) Create a very simple VB ActiveX control (only one button without any script) in Visual Basic 2) Create a PB project to open a Main Window (w_1) with an ole object of VB ActiveX control 3) Open another Window (w_2) with an ole object of VB ActiveX control (can be same as previous or other control) 4) Click the OLE object in w_2 to make it get focus 5) Close w_2 -> it will crashed If ...

PB 7.0 or PB 6.5 or PB 6.0 or PB5.04
We are using PB 5.04 Enterprise at this moment and are almost happy (uch) with it. Because we don't programming applications for the Internet (maybe in the near future) we haven't upgraded to version 6.0 and 6.5. Now we are confused what to do, keeping the old and 'stable' version (5.04) or upgrading to a newer version. Are there features in the newer versions wich make it a 'must' to upgrade. What are this features. Or are there reasons to stay on 5.04 (buggy newer versions?). What is doing the rest of the Powerbuilder world??? Greetings, Hans Groeneveld ...

Can PB 5.0, 6.0, and 6.5 Coexist
I currently support a couple of PB5.0 applications and I am looking to upgrade them to PB 6 or 6.5. I read the 6.5 documentation that said you need to remove all previous versions of PB before installing. I would like to have 5.0 and 6.0 or 6.5 coexist so that I can still support the old application while I work the 6.5 to learn and study the upgrade. So, can they co-exist and what problems might I run into? Thanks , Doug I have PB5 16-bit, (5.03), PB5 32-bit (PB5.04), PB6.5 and PB7 on the same machine - They live in different worlds. Make sure you keep backups of code and main...

Running PB 3.0, 4.0, 5.0 and 6.0 on same PC
I am attempting to run PowerBuilder 3, 4, 5 (both 16 and 32 bit), and 6 on the same PC. I know that sounds crazy but all of those releases are still in use at my company. The only problem I am having is I can't get 6.0 to use its own pb.ini file. I am running NT 4.0 and have made the following entries in my WIN.INI in the [Powerbuilder] section: INITPATH=c:\...... statement for PB3, INITPATH040 for PB4, INITPATH050 for PB5, and INITPATH060 for PB6. This method works for PB3, 4, and 5 but not 6. PB6 seems to be using the INITPATH statement but ignores the INITPATH060 statement. M...

PB 5.0 to PB 6.5, 7.x, 8.0??
I have a client who needs to move from an initial PB 5.0 release (no patches applied) to a newer version of PB. This is a small internal application but they would like to open it up via the internet in the future. They are currently running on a SQL Anywhere DB but would be looking to change that also. I don't have any hands on experience with PB 7.x but from what I heard and read it hasn't been that great. I've been using PB 6.5 since build 444 and was thinking of recommending that they make the move to 6.5 first and then wait for PB 8.0 later this year. Any thoug...

Connection of PB 6.0 to SQL Server 7.0 & Version B/W PB 6.0 and PB 7.0
Can anyone tell me about connecting PB 6.0 to SQL Server 7.0. Please remember we are not planning to upgrade both software. When I was trying to connect PB 6.0 to SQL Server 7.0, error occurred " SQLSTAT 1003". OS=NT 4.0 Server PB=6.0 Enterprise Edition SQL SERVER=7.0 Corporate Edition I also want to know the versions between PB 6.0 to PB 7.0 If your are using the ODBC, which I assume you are, include Disablebind=1 in your DBParm. If your deployment environment is also NT, you will have to turn SQLSPY=1 using PFC services. Autocommit=FALSE and SetTransObject() ra...

Netware 5.0+Groupwise 6.0 -->> Netware 6.0+Groupwise 6.5
Hi. We've got a Netware 5.0 server running Groupwise 6.0 and we would like to upgrade it to Netware 6.0 with Groupwise 6.5. What's the safest way of doing this? We've got a spare server where we can dump things temporarily. Should we upgrade Groupwise first or Netware? Thanks...

ActiveX Control causes PB 6.0 to crash
I'm using a simple ActiveX Control to encrypt data (spDES from www.sp-soft.com). In VB 5.0 I have no problem and the control works great, but PB 6.0 seems to have problems. I place the control on a form, save the form, and then close it; no problem. However, when I try to run my app or re-open the form, PB give me the following error: The exception Integer division by zero. (0xc0000094) occured in the application at location 0x02b030b1 I havn't talked with the makers of the control yet, but we have no problem with it in VB or C++. Other controls that I'm using in PB...
