Re: Getting CB3 to work with VFP 6.0

<I><FONT COLOR="#663300">Hi there.

I've been developing in Fox and VFP for some time now, but I'm new to Codebook. Ever since DevCon, I've been trying to make it (original CD that came with my CB3 book) work with VFP 6.0 beta. Could someone who has had success rebuilding/compiling the framework for 5.0 give me some pointers on the correct order, etc. for adapting CB3 for a later version? If you have 6.0 that would be even better!

Thanks.</FONT></I>

Bernard,

I've ported several projects to VFP6 and made detailed testings. I've not found any other problems than those that might be "strict date" related. In other words, if it worked in VFP5, it ought to work in VFP6.

But you tell us you are starting from a fresh CDBK3. There have been lots of bug fixes since then. You've certainly read here that there's a new Codebook in the works. In the mean time, I would suggest you to stick to CT Blankenship version, or get the free Mere Mortals guide and apply the changes that are detailed there yourself, except for the handling of bizness objects. For this purpose I'd advise you to work with Ed's eBizObj, it's really superior.
