    Win 2003 Server Reboot

    Hello All, We have a client that runs Accpac ERP on a Win 2003 Server on a SQL database. For almost a year now, when loggin in to the server, it has been asking for a restart, probably because of some automatic update download. We have noticed a considerable degradation in speed on the server...

    Day end

    Do you notice a difference in the speed with which the day-end executes? Are the IC Costs updated? Had the same issue on my office machine. Turns out the day-end somehow corrupted. Copied in a new version and the problem was solved.

    VB6 vs VB.NET vs C# for UI development

    The SDK. In the SDK you will also find code samples etc. Also check the Developers forum on the ACCPAC forums.

    VB6 vs VB.NET vs C# for UI development

    We use pretty much all of those. We started using VB and slowly developed the libraries and tools for C#. Now we prefer doing all the work, including UI, in C# but it was initially very difficult and no help was available. In the long run though we believe it was worth it for the additional...

    ACCPAC Plus AP Housekeeping Error

    You're welcome. Glad I could still dig that up in the memory archives. I guess after 15 years it's difficult to forget. But I try ...

    ACCPAC Plus AP Housekeeping Error

    Open the menu file (APMRSC.LD4) in a text editor. Find the menu item "Maintain specification". there is a number next to it (something like 5200 but could also be something like 'spec'). Now look in the APASP directory for APxxxx.LD4 (the number you found). It is probably missing. See if you...

    Multiple Accpac Questions

    If you do not have the ability to do your own Crystal Reports then you should consider Accpac Query. It is a very nice, easy to learn and use, reporting tool. And it's pretty inexpensive to boot.

    Customize Accpac Windows Screens

    Optional fields are awesome but, as you say, it is sometimes a lot easier when they are accessible elsewhere. We have done a bunch of these mods to both OE and PO.

    Accpac UI error

    The table ARAGED is used by the system as a temp file while printing. It should in theory clear after each print but doesn't. Check the table and if it has tx, backup, clear the table and try again. While you're in the table, make sure it has the field RECORDNO in it.

    How to disable double click in a datagrid of OE2500

    Sudha, Your comments are un-called for. If you are working for an end user I would offer our services to you on a consulting basis. If you are a developer with your own business I would give you more assistance to help you get going. As for the version question - 5.1 has issues with event...

    How to disable double click in a datagrid of OE2500

    You will have to get a developer to help you with this. Unrelated questions, if I may: - are you working for the ACCPAC user or the consultant? - why are you still on version 5.1?

    How to filter the data for sales History

    I would have approached it a little different from Tuba and write my own front end/macro to call teh report. A little neater than multiple reports and future new users will not require any new setup. But then, we have the ability to program this. I don't want to sound mean or anything but I am...

    Inventory Receipts for Accpac Plus error

    Typically would happen if you chose an allocation method which does not allow the system to do teh proration - eg you chose weight but there are no weights associated with the items. BTW - you are playing with fire. Dump Plus and get newer software.

    Help with Accpac Plus Purchase Order

    Kenny, PO6.1C is a very, very old product and even at it's best it was flaky. That's why it was replaced by Inventory Receipts, which became the standard PO system for Plus. Your company is extremely short sighted and this will someday cost them way more than to upgrade to more recent software.

    Windows Vista

    Maintaining PriceLists

    This is not a programmer issue - any ACCPAC consultant should be able to do this. And yes, many consulting firms could do this sort of stuff using one of the many communication tools available. Call me in the morning and I will help you. You can get the contact info from our website at...
