My XP hard drive failed before I could copy it. So, what about using an old runtime and writing applets with dBASE 11 or 19? Is that object code updated as to not be runable in a web page directory tree? dBASE 2019 can be used for Web applications, indeed there is a tutorial for creating web applications, but like anything, it will take some time to work through it all, and get an understanding. You would also need to find a host server that runs Windows (there are suggestions in the tutorial). http://www.goldenstag.net/dbase/WebTutorial/00_Menu.htm > > I have wanted to know if Classic dBASE can be used on a webserver? I switched my domain hosting from Linux to Windows years ago but never tried to ask GoDaddy if they will install BDE or dBASE runtime. I used to run a webserver at home when I had dsl. I have also for quite some time looked at who in dBASE community operates web server space. Last I checked it was $5.xx/month but several links do not work. No. It doesn't have the internal mechanics needed. > I know people might complain about issues but I am finding the dBASE 19 easier than ever. I worked in dBASE at Borland. I could never learn fast enough to make sense of Visual dBASE. The leaning curve was too steep. Anyway, I hope I can get this project done enough to get it out before I am 71. ;) There's also a regular dBASE tutorial that should work for dBASE 2019 (there's no reason it shouldn't): http://www.goldenstag.net/dbase/Tutorial/00_Preface.htm And I have books available (see the signature block below).
