Title: Windows app and NT app on same DBase
Post by: Keith on March 30, 2014, 05:38:28 PM

Hi

I just want confirmation that this is not do-able :-)

If you have a standard C9 windows application with tps files and you built an NT application which updated one of the same files  would it be possible for the Windows app and the NT Browse/Form to co-exist?

It sounds silly because there would be two separate executables operating on the files but maybe this could be done via DLLs?

Any comments appreciated.

Thanks

Keith

> yes. effectively they are just 2 windows programs accessing the same data. As long as the dictionary structures are the same it should work. I currently do this but use a SQL backend.

Thanks Kevin.

Now that I think about it a Windows app is actually lots of exes all accessing the same tps data files so another (NT) exe would be ok.

Cheers
