VISTA!

[krembuk]

I have problem installing Ellipse 5.2.3.7 on Windows Vista. Anybody has the same experience?

I tried to search this forum for "Vista" but the result has a broken link to this address:

Why????

Hi,
To my knowledge the winview client only works with internet explorer 6 for the Business object infoview tab.
Furthermore parts of Winview are still written in Delphi 3. Ellipse 6.x might have the newer components but we are not using this at the moment.

Ivy is correct. I've installed Ellipse 6.1 client on a desktop that runs WinXP x64 and Vista. It behaves itself nicely; and seems to enjoy the extra RAM access. Please note that this is a "fat-client" install and does NOT address any Citrix or Active Directory questions.

(For what its worth, I recommend WinXP x64 over Vista: it has all the extra horsepower with none of the extra over-head driven by useless "bling".)

Secondly, Ellipse 5.2.3.7 is not COMPELETY compatible with IE7 - there are a few minor screen components that IE7 may not display properly. Ellipse 6X appears to be 100% compatible with IE7.
