Ravi: just to confirm; you have several "client companies" that run MS Windows 98 on their "server machines" and you've written a program that runs on another machine of an unspecified version of MS Windows. You were expecting your customers to be running at least MS Windows XP on their server boxes which is causing you problems. (for small companies, I'd expect the server and client machines to be one and the same, but this distinction doesn't seem relevant to the current discussion) I think the answer is going to be that Windows doesn't expose a large enough subset of the Win32 API to allow PG to run, but at least it'll get away from the religious argument this seems to have turned into. -- Sam http://samason.me.uk/ -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
