It has been, many years, sadly since I have visited these forums! But I am delighted that it is still running and the software (possibly) still valid and I hope supported well.
I am hoping that someone might be able to help with my queries or verify some of the following please ! :)
I bought some of the very early versions of the AlphaFive software with Web Application Licence from the beginning!
However through personal bereavements (& so on) I never got the time to get started ! However I kept upgrading hoping to get going ... I am almost at the point of finally getting started ! Yeah! :)
I now have version 9 with Web Application licence.
My plan is (as it always has been), to get an online database that users can update themselves, that will auto update onto my systems (live or at certain intervals). Each entry or listing will have around 400 options in all, and I expect to eventually have around 250,000 individual and business listings. Many will have several contacts and addresses.
1) I am assuming that this aim is still possible to do with v9 and the web licence ?
2) I am using Win 7 and a top quality laptop, so assuming that v9 will run smoothly and I should expect any particular software problems or difficulties in it's running and functioning ? i.e. no one has had major bugs or issues ?
3) Since transferring the software to my latest laptop it now wants a licence number - how can I obtain this please, as mine is in my other office (somewhere)?
I have had to move everything and no idea where I put it. Plus much paperwork is now damaged / ruined, and it may not be around any more! The old laptop may not work either and I am currently at my new (2nd) location and unable to try! ?
(I've tried directly sending an online request to Alphafive for this, but their webpage form is constantly throwing up errors, and an old email address I tried failed too!)
4) Am I right in thinking that Alphasoftware is still linked to Alphafive, or have they split please?
5) Can I still get help in here or where-ever, to help get me started, and to develop the software to my needs as I go along ?
(My last version had included some free tutorials and free 'get started' help, but I'm not sure if this is even still possible let along available! ?)
6) Are the latest versions 'much improved/better' or 'easier to work' than v9?
7) Might anyone, be interested in my older versions? (All downloaded with all their own license numbers but I might only find a few of those numbers! However Alpha5 ought to be able to supply new one's I would have thought?)
