V2.12-"Change name" problem with Win XP

Post by donne » Mon Jun 11, 2007 12:28 am

Nick,

At the end of a previous topic initiated by me, you acknowledged that File/Database/Change Name didn't seem to work when running KKPro V2.12 under Win XP. I was wondering if your investigations had revealed why this should be so, and when a bug fix will issued.

We have been able to reproduce the problem but it occurs at a standard call in the program which doesn't cause problems under Win98 so we're not sure what is causing it.

Further investigation has revealed what appears to be a bug in either the Borland Database Engine under Windows XP, NT and 2000 or in the Windows File Protection System.

Since we do not have the means to correct either of these we will look into workarounds which we can program into K&KPro.
