I have a client with accounting software written in VB4.0. Even though
the company that wrote the software is still in business (and
apparently going strong), they have not yet got around to updating the
app to 32-bit VB. No, really. Stop laughing, it's not funny! :-P
Anywho, my clients want to do the whole 'web' thing they've been
hearing about, and have hired a programmer, chosen MySQL and PHP as
their technologies of choice, and are ready and raring to go. Except
for the whole "can't connect to the database from the
accounting/inventory/pos software"-angle. So, any ideas or
suggestions on how to get a 16-bit odbc driver for VB4? Or alternative
methods of making this work? Any and all ideas will be considered,
except for throwing away the old and moldy junk. They've been using
it for most of 10 years, and see no need to change.
To recap: VB4 software running on windows, connecting over the network
to linux server running apache/php/mysql.
