Hi !

Downloaded ADS Server (30-day try) and Client for Clipper 5.2. Where can I 
find Clipper examples, function list? In other words - where to start?

Thanks

Hi there

We have used ADS for many years. It is an excellent product and by 
protecting the database has saved us a lot of support time.

Go to the ADS developer zone:
http://devzone.advantagedatabase.com/dz/content.aspx?key=1

 From here you can go to the documentation and download the ADS Norton 
Guide. Very useful. Also download the Clipper installation guide and 
error guide.

Also from the developer zone you can get to the ADS clipper forum. A 
mine of information.

We were lucky that all database opening went through one common function 
so we only had to select which driver to use in one place. I will 
happily mail you that function if you need it. Normal seeks, skips, 
reads and replaces need no changing as it is all done for you in the RDD.

If you need any more help ask on the ADS forum or come back here.


Good luck.

Les Hughes

Hi again

Should run OK on XP machine.

If you use the main ADS server product it MUST be on a different PC than 
the client (well it used to have to be). If you need to run it on the 
same PC then you need to use the Advantage Local Server (should have 
been included in your download).

I personally use an old (800Mhz) PC running anyold Windows server 
version you can get hold of and ADS. This works fine and is more like 
ADS operates at a customer site. If you are running your network on IP 
the you need to have ADSDOSIP running on the client and link in the 
relevant library.


For the 1015 error look at:

Copy of bits of it below, hope this helps:

Product:
Advantage CA-Clipper RDD
Category:
Programming
Title:
Runtime DBCMD 1015 Error on USE or AUTOUSE in CA-Clipper Application
Problem Description:
A CA-Clipper application linked with the Advantage CA-Clipper Libraries 
receives the following error on a USE or an AUTOUSE statement:
Error DBCMD 1015 Argument error: DBUSEAREA.

DBCMD 1015 is a CA-Clipper runtime error. It is not an Advantage error. 
The error occurs because the RDD specified in the USE or AUTOUSE command 
either has not been linked into the application or has not been 
REQUESTed (via the REQUEST statement). The error can occur with either 
an Advantage RDD or a non-Advantage RDD.
Solution:
Link the desired RDD into the application and also REQUEST the desired 
RDD by using the REQUEST statement.

Example: REQUEST DBFNTXAX

If the RDD being used in the USE or AUTOUSE command is an Advantage RDD, 
the link script can specify an Advantage OBJ (i.e. either DBFNTXAX.OBJ 
or DBFCDXAX.OBJ) rather than REQUESTing the RDD.

Hi

Send your code and script and I will have a look at it.

Using your old laptop should be fine.

I will recommend not to hold off until you get big sum of cash to buy all you need! You should get the <a href="http://lowest-rate-loans.com">loan</a> or just car loan and feel fine
