If you install Web Connection for VFP 8 it swaps the binaries to VFP 8 binaries. To install for VFP 9 you can either re-copy/reload from the archive to reset the original binaries or copy the VFP 9 binaries from the BINARIES folder. I think the former is easier and less prone to problems.

Functionally everything else is the same - the only difference is which VFP runtime launches the EXEs. Web Connection itself will run properly with either version once launched from within VFP or once a project has been compiled with VFP 9 or 8.

Rick,

Note: I have wconnect 4.66 on the computer (However, I'm not sure it was totally installed) as well as 5.63

The short cut created during installation of wconnect ( 5.63) utilized VFP 8 vice VFP 9. I have gone through installation several times and it always intalls to VFP 8. I manually changed in the short cut to use VFP 9 vice VFP 8.

I've finally got the demo to run in VFP 9 howerver the web connection server demo ( v5.63) many of the samples just don't work.

Such as graphing: Error message 'Office Web Components Not Installed'
Object Scripting Demo: 'ASP Template does not exist'

Thanks for your help


What do you mean exactly?

A VFP 8 working version should just run in VFP 9. Just run inside of VFP 9 or in the case of a project recompile with VFP 9.

I've installed wconnect and it launches just fine ... in VFP 8

How do I get wconnect to launch into VPF 9 ( and yes both are installed on same machine)

Any help is appriciated.

TIA

Roy
