Author Using BDE b1807 in place of b1804 in Scriptmaker and Inno

I'm using dBASE Plus 2.5 b1807.

I could not find an installer for b1804 on the dBasePlus CD nor on the gold
website. So, I downloaded the installer PlusRuntime-b1807_EN.exe.

When I compiled with Scriptmaker I got an error message for the line #Define
dBDestName "dBASERuntime.exe" under [dBASE Runtime] saying that
dBasePlusRuntimeEngi
ne1804_EN could not be found. So, (i) in the #Define
line I changed "dBASERuntime.exe" to " dBasePlusRuntimeEngi
ne1804_EN.exe"
and (ii) I also renamed the installer "PlusRuntime-b1807_EN.exe" to
" dBasePlusRuntimeEngi
ne1804_EN.exe". Then the compile process worked and I
got a setup.exe in the Output folder.

Is this the correct procedure? Will there be any unforeseen problems for the
end-user because of my doing this?

I've done the same without any problems. You might also consider looking at
the dBaseRunTime.txt file in the \program files\scriptmaker\in
clude folder
and looking at changing the #define of the dbPlusName constant. That's what
I did to compile with the Runtime b1807.

Hi,

you can also change the property Build and Version in the dbase Section with
your needed number

Like eg example for DB2K

#Define dBaseBuild "1661"
#Define dBaseVersion "0400"

Build = your needed Runtime buildnumber
Version = the Versionsnumber of PlusRun.exe file ...
