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: New! Alpha Five v11 Desktop Edition for developing desktop apps

          I received an email re the v11 desktop offer which expires on 6th February. I decided to buy the Alpha Five v11 Desktop Edition and Unlimited Runtime bundle priced at $349.

          When I clicked Add to Cart I was directed to the UK shop and found that the offer was not available there.

          Can someone explain why UK customers are deprived of this offer?

            Mike, go direct with Brett at Alpha.
            He has mentioned that the Avonquest Uk site collaboration wasn't working as intended - or similar words that were posted - and that was delaying matters.

                  "Compatible with Windows versions XP, Vista, and Win7. (Unlike versions 9 and below that are not compatible with Win7). "
                  Excuse me?
                  I'm still developing in V9 on a Win7 box and successfully deploying to same, so obviously it works.
                  What exactly did you mean by incompatability Richard?

                  Also will the Grid options still be in the Desktop version or has that feature disappeared?

                    Hhmm... good question. But if there is no web controlpanel, you can't create grids, so...

                    (just thought this through as I was typing).

                      Just how far the split is - and the delineators - will be an interesting piece of software!

                        My guess is that producing the desktop version didn't require much effort programming. Turn off the WEB CP and a couple of other tweaks and their done. I guess the question is what does the future hold?

                          Well as a prophet of doom I'm afraid I predicted this split in a post about a year ago
                          I used to own a fair sized Software house, so it's the route I would have taken.
                          Being a fan of Alpha, I hope it stays out of Microsofts hands.
                          I'm sure that Richard an Selwyn have looked at an "exit" route. So we will see.

                            We are working in close concert with our UK partner and you will find similar offers being made available in the UK. Our objective is to have comparable offers to users on both sides of the pond. Our UK partner is also working hard to increase the profile of Alpha in the UK

                              Richard, given your position at Alpha: The fact that you choose to participate here/work on the weekends when necessary, is both impressive & admirable. (I've frequently noticed your willingness to do so over the years. (which includes occasionally even responding to bug reports)

                              IMHO (actually not so humble at times), your work ethics exemplify both the "true colors" & integrity of Alpha Software.

                              Thank You!
