GOAL:
Changes when migrating from the 16-bit to the 32-bit Progress product
FACT(s) (Environment):
Windows NT 32 Intel/Windows 2000
FACT(s) (Environment):
Progress 8.1x
FACT(s) (Environment):
Progress 8.3x
FIX:
Starting with Version 8.2A, PROGRESS follows the Microsoft Windows
32-bit application standard.
New 32-bit character client product availability
Version 8.2A and higher supports a 32-bit character client on the Windows 95 and Windows NT platforms. This client has full Version 8 character widget
support, including the updatable browse. In addition, the Windows
character client supports access to dynamic link libraries (DLLs),
dynamic data exchange (DDE), and ActiveX Automation (with Automation
Servers that do not require Window handles from the controller).
To order the 32-bit character client, contact your local sales office,
as this product is not automatically shipped when you upgrade from
Version 8.1. This client is not double-byte enabled.
8.1x to 8.3x Database Conversion
Dump and load use
Upon connecting to your database, you will receive the error message:
Invalid block size 512 in database <dbname>
you will need to dump and load that database. This error message is
generated because you had a database created with our 16-bit product.
On Windows 95 and Windows NT, Version 8.3x is a 32-bit only product.
