Version of PowerBuilder (ref: Creating database for PowerBuilder)I'm using PowerBuilder v8.0 and would like to create a
notification system for my practiculum project. I'd like to
use Access to create the database. Please enlighten me on
what should I create (e.g. tables, queries) for the usage of
it.
Thank You.

Don't double post, it's bad etiquette.
Unless you have a very good reason to do so, we recommend you don't use
Access. Use SQL Anywhere instead - it's more stable - and a far better
database in my opinion. PowerBuilder (enterprise) supports just about every
database out there, so if you...

Adnan,
Is this a SQL Anywhere question?
If not, you have posted to the wrong forum.
If yes,...
Use PowerBuilder DLL in PowerBuilderWe use PB6.5.
We would want to use a DLL create from PB in a PB application.
We compiled an a PBL as DLL.
After we tried to use DLL in a user object external, but without success.
How can we do to use DLL create from PB or use in a new PB application some
object (visual and no) before compiled with PB?
Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks
When you create a DLL from a PB library it is not really a standard Windows
DLL. I'm not sure what the difference is. If you are making calls from PB
then just use the standard PB calling syntax the ...

If you're object (or any related object) failed to migrate
successfully, you won't be able to edit it in a regular painter;
you'll have to Edit Source to modify it.
If you're migrating, a glance through my Migration Guide (see below)
may help. The methodology there would allow you to identify...
Upgrade to PowerBuilder 9 or PowerBuilder 10?Hi,
Our company is going to upgrade PowerBuilder. Currently we are using version
7, and we are going to upgrade either to version 9 or 10.
Does anyone have any recommendations if we should go for version 9 or 10?
What is the current release of version 10, and is it stable or is there a
lot of bugs?
Best regards,

If you have any hope of running the applications in the future on XP, W2003
or soon to be W2006 (LongHorn) you will have to jump over to UniCode - ie
PB10. So personally, I would recommend starting with P...
SQLCA works when application runs in PB not when application is run with Powerbuilder WDK.Hi,
My applications with out SQLCA run great through Powerbuilder WDK, my
applications that contain SQLCA information doesn't. When I run the

When I run it through PB WDK the splash screen starts and the I get a login
box. No matter what I do it always show's up and when I hit OK I get the

SQLCA code and ini file are below.

startupfile = "pds.ini"

Powerbuilder running independent of database provider.We currently use powerbuilder 6 to develop our front end application. The
database we connect to is a Microsoft SQL Server 2000 database. We now have
new clients that want to use Oracle 8.0. How can powerbuilder work for both
providers?
Things to validate for dbms-independent processing:
1) All datawindow syntax can be viewed in graphics mode. DW syntax does not
include any DBMS-specific functions in any computed column.
1a) If you require any DBMS-specific functionality in your datawindows,
create multiple versions--one for each DBMS to be supported. Assign the
dataobject acc...

If you leave your datawindows in graphic syntax mode, they will look at the
database vendor information at runtime and format the SQL accordingly. Try
to make sure you do all your database interaction via such datawindows
whenever possible. You'll also need to make sure that you don't do things
like call server specific functions in compu...
Does PowerBuilder run in interpretive mode in the IDE?Does PowerBuilder run in interpretive mode in the IDE? Or
does it have to be compiled before it can be tested? The
reason for the question is there we are having database
connection errors while testing. But the deployed
application in the same environment is not having any
issues. Please let me know. Thanks.
Ed;
PB always runs compiled. When you save any object it is compiled and
saved in the PB Library. So PBL's contain both source and p-code.
Can you describe the connection error? Do you trap the return code and
message from the DBMS if the "Connect&qu...

PowerbuilderWe're developing a to-sell-system for the restaurants industry. The system
has PC and handheld (PocketPC) interfaces. I would like to use
PowerBuilder to develop the UI, but I need to know if it is supported the
development for the handhelds interface too?? and which specialized (good
looking) forms or buttons I could use for the development??
This forum is for source code control questions - better to post in the
general forum..
