Bought the W7 Professional but failed to install. Waiting to hear from the vendor. When it rains, it pours. Thanks for your concern. Will post results as a hint when I got it working.

Jonathan Leeming | Re: A sure way to connect to Advantage database server from XBase++ method on Sat, 21 Mar 2015 15:02:13 -0600 Hi Richard, I'm assuming that the Clipper app is moving from a Novell IPX/SPX environment. Keep in mind the ADSDOSIP solution will be significantly (painfully) slower than what the Clipper app users would have experienced in the IPX/SPX world. Unless it is "impossible" to recompile using Xbase++ VIO mode I would suggest that it is worth the time investment. With that being said... I belive you can find ADSDOSIP using the following link http://devzone.advantagedatabase.com/dz/content.aspx?key=20 Advantage has not updated the ADSDOSIP component since V7 but they did release some updated LIB files in V8. From the link above click on any release 8.0 or higher (the ADSDOSIP / Clipper LIBs are all the same after 8.0). At the bottom of the list of products for the selected version you will see... Advantage Clipper RDD. Within there you will find 2 download links... You will need both the 7.0 "Full Release" and the 8.0 "Update". The 7.0 is an executible called Clipper.exe... when you install it I seem to remember that you need to do a full install (maybe Manual) otherwise you won't get ADSDOSIP. The 8.0 just has 3 updated LIB files as I mentioned previously. Please let me know how it goes for you and if you get it to install OK otherwise we can look at "plan B". Regards...
