Re: Client Access Express + Windows XP - excel addin

["Steve Landess" <sjl_abc@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

You have a challenge here...

IBM didn't plan to support Windows XP in V4R4 Client Access Express-V4R4 
predates XP by several years.
Of course, if you could obtain a copy of V5R1 CAE, it would work fine with 
Windows XP and V4R4 of OS/400, but this would NOT be a legal solution if you 
don't have a legal copy of V5R1...

(But I'm sure you're knowledgable about licensing and royalties, since you 
work for SonyBMG)

BTW, are you sure it's not a Rootkit problem??? (lol)

Subject: Client Access Express + Windows XP - excel addin






Our office is using Client Access Express for Windows version 4 Release
4 Modification 0



However, after everyone moved to Windows XP (from Windows 2000), bugs
started appearing with Client Access.  It basically works, but for
bigger files, it cuts off at line 16351 and gives an error message.  I
have confirmed that the files I am transferring do not exceed the Excel
maximum of 65000 lines.  This bug occurs only when using the Excel
Add-In version of Client Access.  Other bugs have been occurring with
the add-in as well...



Is there a more recent version of Client Access that you guys use?  Have
you experienced any problems with Client Access on Windows XP?



Any advice would be appreciated....
