I need to start replacing some aging networked XP machines with
Windows7 machines (App written in Delphi 7)

I have a DBISAM 3.30 Client Server setup with the server running on one
of the XP machines as a Windows Service.  At the moment only one of the
clients needs to be replaced but sometime soon the server will need to
be as well.

Should the changeover be OK and what issues can I expect  Note all the
tables formats are Ansi Standard

Many thanks in advance

Hi Mike,

User Account Control (I am not sure what it is called in English), could be
a problem. If you experience some errors that you cannot explain, you should
try disabling this.

Mike,

The only things to look out for are:

1) Folder virtualization (\Program Files) - don't store tables, etc. in the
\Program Files directory or subdirectories.

2) Temporary files directories - don't specify \Windows\Temp as a session's
PrivateDir - use the private temporary files directory for each user
(GetTempPath Win32 API call).
