Bonus TIPS for Successful Posting

Try a Search First
It is highly recommended that a Search be done on your topic before posting, as many questions have been answered in prior posts. As with any search engine, the shorter the search term, the more "hits" will be returned, but the more specific the search term is, the greater the relevance of those "hits". Searching for "table" might well return every message on the board while "tablesum" would greatly restrict the number of messages returned.

When you do post
First, make sure you are posting your question in the correct forum. For example, if you post an issue regarding Desktop applications on the Mobile & Browser Applications board , not only will your question not be seen by the appropriate audience, it may also be removed or relocated.

The more detail you provide about your problem or question, the more likely someone is to understand your request and be able to help. A sample database with a minimum of records (and its support files, zipped together) will make it much easier to diagnose issues with your application. Screen shots of error messages are especially helpful.

When explaining how to reproduce your problem, please be as detailed as possible. Describe every step, click-by-click and keypress-by-keypress. Otherwise when others try to duplicate your problem, they may do something slightly different and end up with different results.

A note about attachments
You may only attach one file to each message. Attachment file size is limited to 2MB. If you need to include several files, you may do so by zipping them into a single archive.

If you forgot to attach your files to your post, please do NOT create a new thread. Instead, reply to your original message and attach the file there.

When attaching screen shots, it is best to attach an image file (.BMP, .JPG, .GIF, .PNG, etc.) or a zip file of several images, as opposed to a Word document containing the screen shots. Because Word documents are prone to viruses, many message board users will not open your Word file, therefore limiting their ability to help you.

Similarly, if you are uploading a zipped archive, you should simply create a .ZIP file and not a self-extracting .EXE as many users will not run your EXE file.

    Will alpha five Ver 11 run on Windows 8.1 Pro

    I'm thinking of purchasing a new Microsoft Surface Pro 3 tablet/laptop and wanted to know if Alpha Five Ver 11 will run on it. The operating system is Windows 8.1 Pro
    Thanks

    Well it won't run on my Galaxy, but that isn't a laptop as it uses Android.
    Were you planning DT or Web?
    I have had some success with using Synology NAS with my tablet though.
    See our Hybrid Option here;

    Apologies to anyone I haven't managed to upset yet.
    You are held in a queue and I will get to you soon.

      more than likely it will run and please note that in windows from 8.1 on internet explorer is version 11 as default and many stuff in alpha does not work with that ie version. such as html editor you cannot create a5w pages., or working preview ( you can see live preview, however) but I hear the same works well with version 12, alpha anywhere. for version 11 alpha software the best will be windows 7 machine I think or at least I am told.
      thanks for reading

          I can't say for Windows 8.1, but our v11 desktop app installed just fine on 8.0, easier than on Vista or Windows 7.

              I have windows 8.1 and alpha installed and works alright, except for the limitations I explained before.
              but mine is a desktop not tablet.

                Re: Will alpha five Ver 11 run on Windows 8.1 Pro

                I have been using my new surface pro 3 for about a month and love it.
                I have not had any problems running Alpha Five ver 11
                The one issue that I have not been able to fix as of yet is using the "F8" button to switch between view and browse
                Hitting the "F8" button on the surface pro 3, a windows menu slides in from the right side of the screen. If anyone knows how to solve this, please let me know.
                If you can deal with a small screen, I highly recommend a Surface Pro 3
                Thanks
