Single window vs multiple window
applications
In Superbase 1.xx and 2.xx, you could only have one form
or window on the screen at a time. In Superbase 3.xx, they
added support for the Windows MDI (Multiple Document Interface)
so that you could have multiple windows and forms on the screen
at the same time.
If you are upgrading an application, you need to decide if
adding multiple document (multiwindow) support is worth the
extra effort, because you must account for the possibility
that many forms could be onscreen at the same time.
If you wanted to move an application from Superbase 1.xx
to Superbase 3.xx with a minimal of headache, you should add
the following line to the top of the start up code for the
program:
Superbase.MDIMode = 0
This command tells Superbase to operate in the single window
mode, which is most like the way it was for version 1 and
version 2. |
