The registry will have entries for Forms45, Forms50, etc and the actual executables are F45des32.exe, F45run32.exe ( 4.5 Forms designer and run-time) F50des32.exe,F50ren32.exe ( 5.0 "" ) Same for Reports, Graphics, etc.... Check your registry, path, etc..It should work,,, Hope it helps, John Greco Bob wrote: >. >> >> Our company has several machines (NT), which have complete Developer >> 2000 on them, versions 1.6 and 2.1 (Forms 4.5 and 5.0, Reports 2.x >> and 3.0 etc. ). >> >> >What problems could this >> >raise? >\ -o Eppu Normaali o- >> > >Ive been trying to run developer/forms 4.5 and reports 2.5 along with >forms 5.0 and reports 3.0 for months, but have never been able to get >them to work at the same time on one workstation.
