PDOX 9 ON WINDOWS XP PRO
- Thread starter subroman
- Start date
That is our current set-up and we had some issues at first. All of them centered around XP permissions. Remember to give all users full and complete rights to all directories Paradox uses and you will have a good start. Install all service packs, too. Mac

subroman,
I can confirm Mac's experience; I've had no troubles using Paradox 9 under XP.
I would add one caveat, though: Be sure you install the program when you're logged in as Administrator.
Other than that, it's fine.
Hope this helps...

One other note based on our system. You may experience different behavior on different workstations, depending on how XP was installed. Workstations where XP was installed over ME or 98 experienced few (or no) problems, while fresh XP installs were picky and required a lot of permissions tweaking. Mac
