Hi from Uruguay, South America

Post by mrclinker »

Hi folks!

I am Mr. Clinker, back in the programming saddle again after a client of mine who has been using a Clipper system since 1994, (yes, 1994), wants to move to Windows Xp.

My native language is Spanish, so forgive me if I make some spelling or grammar errors.

As you can imagine, I have tons of questions regarding this process of "code-rewriting", so I think you will be hearing of me very often.

Best regards to all.

Hola Mr. Clinker

Welcome aboard, saludos from Turkey :)

Please don't hesitate for asking questions; without questions all answer are meaningless ;)

Also don't worry about language; here isn't TOEFL forum :)

Hi Mr. Clinker,

Welcome aboard.

I am sure we can learn from each other a lot.
East or West HMG is the Best.
South or North HMG is worth.

Yes, some of my clients also still using very old programs originally developed with clipper :)

And some of them still using clipper programs with winXp (with some problems also ;) )

With best regards.

Hi from Russia, Mr. Clinker!

In our office I'm trying to move a lot of our very old soft (since 1992! yes!) from Clipper to Harbour (it's medicine management related: statistics, financial, stuff of reports for region and federal ministry... & other garbage...).

This soft is in use years and years... but we need to work in "XP world" (like your clients)... and in "after-XP world"... and in "Linux-world"... and in "WWW world" (with a little help from Roberto's HMGSCRIPT, I think :) )... And we don't want (and haven't enough hands and time) to rewrite this tons of code from "zero point"...

And in this situation only Harbour (+HMG of course!!) is "light in the darkness". :) So - you're in good (and friendly) place! :) Welcome!

Perfectly worded Alex. Thanks.
