Hi,

I need to increase my current ADS version 11 license for 50 users to 250 
users and the supplier is quoting on version 12. I seem to remember 
hearing of problems with ADS 12 but don't know of any specifics.  Is 
anyone aware of any reason that why I should stay with version 11 
instead of moving up to version 12?

Thanks... Jonathan

Isn't there a developers edition anymore ?

There is thread in "data-access" newsgroup where Tim Callahan posted 
links for ads v12 32/64bit developers edition



http://d1x450sr0i2zzc.cloudfront.net/ads12/dev/ADS12DeveloperVersionWin64.zip

or

http://d1x450sr0i2zzc.cloudfront.net/ads12/dev/ADS12DeveloperVersionWin32.zip


Also multiple forum members posted that v12 works quite well.


Hint: Import news.alaska-software.com into Thunderbird or other 
newsgroup reader and use text search there.


greetings,M

Hi Matej & Thanks,

Yes there is a 2 user developers version of ADS ver 12 and I have gone 
into various screens within my application and run different reports but 
am also interested in the "real World" experiences of others in case 
there is something I may have missed.

I should probably have mentioned that I am using Xbase++ 2.00.1487, Win 
Server 2019 and currently all Win 10 clients (various versions).

FYI... Just checked and Tim's links still work.

Thanks Again... Jonathan

Hi Cesar,

I just uninstalled my ADS 11 developers 2 user and installed the ADS 12 
developers that I just downloaded from Matej's links (above).  No key is 
required.  From the 64 bit version you just install the 
adswin_x86_64.exe with your desired settings.  Note that the Advantage 
Data Architect utility is only available from the 32 bit zip 
ADS12DeveloperVersionWin32.zip.  To install this utility run arc32.exe 
from within ADS12DeveloperVersionWin32.

Again, there is no key required for the 2 user developers version.

Hope this helps... Jonathan
