Setting up the BDE NetDir to run in Vista

Asked by samhall1 in Delphi Programming, Delphi Programming Language, Delphi Database

Tags: Delphi, BDE VISTA

I'm attempting to make my delphi application run in Vista, and when the BDE attempts to read the PDOXUSRS.NET file, it fails.  I changed the net dir in bdeadmin to my user directory, so that it's not trying to read/write to c:\ , however it continues looking to c:\pdoxusrs.net.

I understand that the net dir can be specified in other places (although I don't know what those places might be), but whatever is configured in bdeadmin is supposed to take precadent, right?

Anyone know what's going on?Start Free Trial
