 | I have users running existing dBASEPlus installations. I have recently rewritten a form to make use of the new BeForeCellPaint. I have copied onto the users machines re-compiled versions of the revised form and myControls.co. The users are unable to see the effects of the BeforeCellPaint, (ie. changed colours). However they also do not get any error messages. Is there another file(s) I need to copy to their machines for BeforeCellPaint to work?
I would appreciate any insight. Thanks, Catherine

Catherine, does the runtime on their machines match the version of dBASE that you are using to compile the wfm/cc files?

I did not copy the new runtime version on their machines. I am assuming from your question that I need to do so? Can I simply copy the new runtime files to each workstation?
Thanks, Catherine

Catherine, yes, I think so...the old runtime would not have heard about the new features, so couldn't implement them.

Yes, that should do it.
Since I haven't deployed these new versions anywhere myself, I hope that I am steering you right. ;-)

It makes sense, the older runtime wouldn't know what to do with the new beforeCellPaint method and such ... so putting the new runtime out there would resolve that issue.
