You'll need to look after YOUR apps requirements and if the other app. falls over then the client needs to contact the developer of that app. If you start stuffing around with their environment then the client won't be happy with you at all (the other developer probably won't be either<g>). If the other app is using the system path then you'll need make your app. self reliant without using system paths. CYA Steve
From: tham chan weng on 30 May 2010 02:26 Hi Steven Thanks. I guest there aint much options available. Maybe I will rewrite those 3rd party apps (they have since cease support) for free. This is a very good client.

Rewriting important apps that are no longer supported by the original developer would seem like a smart move for the client. -- Ginny Caughey www.wasteworks.com |
