Dbisam presales question |

Eydun | Hi.
I need to compile an application with Borland Delphi 2005 which uses some dbisam components. How do I find out which version of dbisam I must order to make the application compile? (There are so many options to choose between on the page http://www.elevatesoft.com/order?action=viewcatprod&product=dbisam) |

The easiest way to do so is to test the actual database tables. 1) Download this setup and install it: http://www.elevatesoft.com/download?action=downinfo&producttype=dbisamadd&version=4 2) Run the Database System Utility from the Start/Programs menu. 3) Select the Utilities/Table Version option. 4) Select the database tables that are being used with the application, and click on Select. 5) If the Table Version information is 4.x, then you need to use DBISAM 4.x. If it is 3.x, then you need to use DBISAM 3.x. -- Tim Young Elevate Software www.elevatesoft.com |

Eydun | Thanks, Tim.
The tables are in version 4.00 format. So I think I have narrowed it down between "DBISAM VCL Standard" or "DBISAM VCL Client-Server". But how do I find out which one of those two I need? |

This depends on wether its a client server app or a fileserver app. Check for stRemote or stLocal in the .pas and .dfm. If you find neither or stLocal its almost certainly filserver so "DBISAM VCL Standard". If you find stRemote its almost certainly c/s so "DBISAM VCL Client-Server" and if you find both pick whichever you want. Roy Lambert |

All the components are exactly the same. OP question was "what do I need to make the application compile". If all he needs is to compile the program or even run a simple test, he does not need CS. Especially since you get a 5 user server with the standard version. Robert > Roy Lambert > |

If you need more than 5, then you need the CS product. If you only need 5 or less, then you can use the STD product. If you don't need the DBISAM database server, then the STD product will suffice. http://www.elevatesoft.com/faqo_8.htm -- Tim Young Elevate Software www.elevatesoft.com |

Eydun | Hello all.
Thank you for the replies. The .dfm has: SessionName = 'Server' SessionType = stRemote This is a client application that accesses a server. Do I then need to purchase the Client-server version? Thanks. |

Otherwise, you can use the 5-connection server provided with the STD version. -- Tim Young Elevate Software www.elevatesoft.com |
