I think I'm referring to the scary config file. But I'll download the
latest version and print the manual I think - it is probably time I had a
proper look at it and started using it in something internal.

I wonder if it is compatible with the DevExpress Scheduler 3 beta? That
would be a nice test.

It's really not that scary - DBISAM used a config file for the database
server.  The only difference with ElevateDB is that both local apps and the
database server use a config file.  However, that makes it very easy to move
back and forth with no effort whatsoever - you can prototype it as a local
application, and then move it to C/S later with a simple property change to
the TEDBSession SessionType property.

TVM. Scary is of course the wrong word. I've printed the intro parts of
the manual, and I aim to have it sussed soon. Thanks for your great
assistance on this.

Very minor tip, probably to late, - print the manual 2 pages per page - its still readable and you save a small forest.

We have B5 JIS paper, and it duplexes, so it is smaller but still
readable, and binds well.

B5 I understand but what is JIS?

Roy Lambert

There are two types of B5, so the JIS part makes sure it is the right one.

In my search for a better way to print manuals (mainly for our customers)
I figured it was sensible to find out what our printer knew about and B5
was the best "book" size available. We buy it from our office suppliers,
and they get the paper people to deliver boxes which appear to be custom
made for us!  Before this I used a lot of A5 paper, but that seems small,
and shrinks A4 PDFs too much.
