Hi, I've just attempted to install Visual dBASE 7.01 on a Win98 machine that has no previous versions of Visual dBASE, but does have Corel Word Perfect Suite 8 which includes IDAPI. During the install process, VdB reported "Warning! Unable to merge changes into BDE configuration file". If I try to run VdB it says "Database Engine Initialisation Error - Wrong version of IDAPI32.DLL". I assume there is some sort of a conflict going on, which I find odd since VdB and WPS8 came in the same box direct from Inprise (buy one - get one free). Any and all suggestions on how to get myself out of this mess will be gratefully received.

Two choices, I think. - Uninstall both, then reinstall VdB first. - Manually modify the relevant registry entries. ____ Bowen Moursund (TeamB) bowen at nerds dot com http://lonestar.texas.net/~moursund/ Try this help resource: http://www.dejanews.com/home_ps.shtml

Bowen, You wouldn't happen to be in a position to give me any pointers to the bits of the registry that need changing would you?
