ADS x RR v9.0 Xbase

[alaggio]

Kathleen,____I have seen a lot of messages about some problems using RR 9 Xbase and Advantage Database Server. We are considering to use ADS so what are, IN FACT, the problems using them together ?____I would also like to discuss with others users in the same situation.____Marcelo Alaggio.__Delphus Informatica Ltda.__Brazil__alaggio@delphus-inf.com.br____

What I think is the case (and any ADS users out there can certainly correct me) is that R&R can indeed read/use tables created/managed by ADS (as long as they are 2GB or less which is same file size limitation as Foxpro). What R&R does not do is work cooperatively with the ADS server so that we can see any database transactions as they occur in real time. Instead we read what is out on disk which may not be the latest data.____If I am wrong in this information, ADS users please speak up and correct me.____Kathleen__R&R Support
