PB 5.0.04 and PB 7.0 on the same PC
Finally, I have been approved to upgrade our application from PB 5.0.04 to PB 7. 0. I have run test migrations to determine any initial problems that need to be addressed and other than a few problems everything appears to work correctly. Anyway, the company I work for will require the need to support users still using the PB 5.0.04 version of the application. My concern is maintaining both PB 5.0.04 and PB 7.0 at the same time. Until all our users are caught up on releases this poses to be a maintenance nightmare. Are there any issues or concerns that I need to be aware when installing PB 7.0 on all development PCs that already have PB 5.0.04 installed? Will both PB 5.0.04 and PB 7.0 work independently allowing me to maintain both versions of our application? Bill

You shouldn't run into any problems. PowerBuilder runtime/development libraries have different names between the releases. I currently have PB 5, 6.5.1, 7.0.2, and another beta on my machine with no problems.

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 ...

pb 6.5, pb 7.0, pb 8.0 and future releases
I have designed an app using PB 6.5.1 and feel quite confortable to write another app using this version of Power Buulder. I am aware that there have been many other releases after this but have heard many developers complain about not being stable and so forth. I can't say how true this is cause I never bothered to update to later releases. I recently got a contract for a new app and quite likely will be using Power Biulder but I am wondering if am cheating myself by not trying to upgrade myself to a later release of Power Biulder.

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...

PB 5.0.04 to PB 7
I have no current version of PowerBuilder and will be getting PB 7. But I have a client that is using PB 5.0.04 and would like to bring them up to the newest version, because I assume that PB 7 is the way to go for the future. Is this an easy migration path, assuming no experience with PB, but 3 years Win32 programming experience? No one can guarantee that the 5.0.04 apps will migrate perfectly... but, in general, this is not a difficult thing to do and should go smoothly. If the 5.0.04 app uses PFC, you will have issues. Also, if the 5.0.04 app is 16-bit and makes external DLL call...
Are you using PB 5.0.03 version of PBODB050.DLL with PB 5.0.04??
PB 5.0.04 applications connected to SQL Anywhere 5.5 will GPF on disconnect when ODBC 3.5 or greater is installed. I believe this may only happen for win95 as opposed NT/98. Replacing PBODB050.DLL with the PB 5.0.03 version has been a common 'folk remedy'. We have just discovered a problematic side-effect: If instead of connecting to SA 5.5, you connect to SA 7, and your PB application uses datawindows which retrieve through calls to Stored Procedures, then such a retrieve produces a database error: Select error: SQLSTATE = S1009 [Sybase][ODBC Driver]Invalid use o...
Oracle Client 8.1.7
Hi all, I have a question about compatibility between PB native driver and oracle sql*net for different versions of Power Builder. We have 3 applications developed in 3 different versions of Power Builder: 5.00.0.0, 6.5.1.620 and 7.0.10047 All of them are using the Oracle Client 8.1.6 and accessing via PB Native Driver to Oracle. Although this is combination is not supported, the person in charge of the PB part tested this combination and decided to upgrade the oracle client from version 7.3.X to 8.1.6. So far it is working properly for us. Now, if it is decided to move to ora...
PB 5.0.04
Can anyone tell me if a PB 5.0.04 - EXE ( PBD�s) support ASA 7.0.0.EBF 463 ? We need any scpecific / new PB5xx.DLL or something else? The same program works OK from the enviroment, but not its .EXE.

PB 5.0.04 upgrade to PB 8.0
Has anyone done an upgrade from PB 5 to 8? I'm about to attempt this and I was wondering if there is any information out there to help me with this.
