ERS 5 - Metaframe - Terminal Server - Macola

Hi,

Is any one using ERS with macola ???

Yes some people do, but not many that I have ever heard of. What are you trying to accomplish?

Software Sales, Training, Implementation and Support for Exact Macola, eSynergy, and Crystal Reports

I use it from time to time, but I don't find there is anything in ERS that you can't get from another tool so far. However, ERS can be used to modify the VB on the front end of the ICRs. But modifying ICRs comes with its own drawbacks. If you have to rewrite the whole thing anyway, you can just do all the filtering & selecting logic in crystal itself instead of messing around with the ERS project. I have also used ERS to modify ddfs in the past, but other tools can do this as well.

We have a stand alone ERS application running as a published application on 20 to 30 Thin-net clients - Citrix Metaframe Presentation Sever 3 on a Terminal Server Running WIn 2K SP4. This worked well on the old version of Citrix but with the latest version about once a week decides it can't find the .exe file or drive mapping and crashes. Has any one heard of similar problems with the Server 3 version.

We are also having problems with Activity Transactions Screen using flex code on thin-net clients. Once a day it causes the terminal sever to run at 100% thus frezzing every other terminal. the same screen & flex work fine on PC. Any Ideas

Regards
