Windows 7 64 bit

[Karl@CP PISTONS]

Our it dept is asking questions that I have no idea how to answer. We have some scripts that are critical to our day to day operation. Question is these scripts were developed using X4 and X5 under windows XP. Will these transfer into windows 7 64 bit without incident? Anything I need to look out for specifically?

scripts ?

 

Could you be a little more specific? - VB Script? , Or? ...

 

It's probably not so much dependent on which Windows, but on which version of X.

Sorry Roger, These are mastercam VBA scripts. Some of them use the CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") and CreateObject("ADODB.Connection"). That is what got me thinking that windows version might cause some difficulties.

I havent had any problems here; using MCX5.1, Windows 7 64bit, and some of my OLE code is old-fashioned LATE BINDING stuff.

However, you may well have to update the source for incompatibility if the parent apps are updated, to Win7 versions.

Thanks for the info. It is good to know that the it dept is thinking of moving us up and out of the XP world.
