"Al Vas" | Hi,
Is it possible to have DBISAM 4 and DBISAM 3 in the same delphi environment. If so great, if not how do others handle having to switch back between 3 and 4 for different applications? Currently using D5. Thanks Alex |

Rolf Frei eicom GmbH | It is not possible to use both version for the same application, but you can
load the desried DBISAM Packages on load of the Project. I have installed DBISAM 2,3,4 all together in Delphi. If I load a Project who is using DBISAM 3 it loads automaticly the correct V3 Packages and unloads the other two versions. How can I do this? See the below message from some time ago: 1. Install both Packages into Delphi but don't activate it. You will get an error on starting delphi or loading one of your projects the first time. Cancel all error boxes!!! 2. Then if the project is loaded you can open the project options dialog and disable/enable the desired DBISAM package for this project. The next time you load this project the packages are automaticly loaded/unloaded. So if you load a DBISAM 2 project the DBISAM 2 package gets loaded and the DBISAM 3 gets unloaded. 3. In addition you must set the DBISAM library path to yout Project searchpath for old DBISAM 2 projects. I have placed the DBISAM3 Lib in the environement search path and for any old DBISAM 2 projects I have added the DBISAM 2 lib path to the project options. This must only be done one time. From now on you can just simply load any DBISAM 2 or DBISAM 3 project with no errors and nothing more to do. This way it works very well as long we do not install a new version of DBISAM, as they change the package name for every version. If that's happens you must again set the used packages of your projects, as new added Packages are active as default and so you must for every DBISAM project again deactivate the new DBISAM package. I'm working this way since V3 came out whithout any problems.
