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.

      Re: RMUF file

      going back to windows 7 might have screwed the startup. win 7 doesn't like changes to files in the X86 folder so you may need to run as admin and also run compatability check. a reinstall of Alpha may go into prog files and not prog files (86).

        Assuming you mean, e.g., that an app built in v12 can't be run in, say, the v10 runtime, then that has not been my experience. Of course if the v12 app has features that didn't exist for v10, that's perhaps a different story.

          You may be able to run it on a local machine, but running it over a LAN will cause problems.

            Interesting. I am not disputing what you say as it applies to the experience you have had on a LAN. All I can say is my app does run on a LAN and I have not yet experienced what you describe with some machines running different versions of the runtime. Maybe I have just been lucky--or maybe users just aren't bringing this problem to my attention. Or maybe it's just another A5 mystery, one among many! And as I stated above, it's a different matter if an app has, say, v12 specific features and you try to run it with a v9 runtime. But even that, it seems to me, should not involve an rmuf issue. And of course if an app is developed in v12 it would probably be a best practice to run it using the v12 runtime.

              I believe we may be talking at cross purposes.
              My experience is the when an application is developed in, say, V10.5 Build 1234 and the RT is V10.5 Build 5432, even though the versions are V10.5, the builds are different and errors occur.
              I have not tried running a V11 app in a V10.5 RT environment, so that's what I will do next.
              As you say, it is possible that a V12 "fix" has resolved the issues I had.
              A lot of Alpha is a mystery sometimes.
