How to connect to a simple database with CFRONT OCX

cssgyula

Hi there,

Does anyone know how to use CFRONT OCX to connect to a simple database?

I tried using opendatabase() with correct parameters, but CFRONT replied: "opendatabase() is not used anymore, use connecttoserverandopendatabase() instead"

I tried using connecttoserverandopendatabase() while leaving the server-based parameters blank, but in this case fatal cfront error occures.

When I installed a native database server and tried this command, it worked,

:!: BUT :!:

How can I connect to a simple database file without the need of installing a database server? :?: Is CFRONT only server-based or...? ](*,)

Thanks for your help,

Jules

From C/FRONT Help:

Navision Database Server
The server must be running when you issue this call. All subsequent calls to access the database will be passed to the server, which will execute the operations. This function is only applicable in a multiuser configuration.

You are not able to use this for singleuser connection... and if another functions are obsolete, it seems, that there is no way to connect in singleuser mode through C/FRONT...
