Delphi 2.0 BDE with Windows 3.11?
I know it is possible to run Delphi 2.0 applications under Windows 3.11 with Win32s installed.
-but how about Borland Database Engine? Can it run under Windows 3.11, or is it dependant of the long filenames?
Best regards

Have you already tried?
Maybe it works if you don't use long filenames.

No, I haven't tried, because I don't have a computer with Windows 3.11 nearby... -so if anyone have some experience with this, please let me know...

Adjusted points to 50
My understanding is that only SOME Delphi 2.0 programs will run under Win3.11 with Win32s, in particular (again) my understanding is that BDE32 itself WILL NOT run with Win32s, therefore any Delphi applications that rely on it will not run.
None of this is objectively verified at this point, I'll try to install BDE32 in my WfWG3.11 installation sometime soon and let you know.

Too bad... many of my customers still have Windows 3.11...
-then they must upgrade to Win95 :-)
