Michael Riley ZilchWorks | I'm running Windows 7 and ran into an issue when I tried to run the
CDCollector example that ships with ElevateDB from inside the Delphi IDE. I got an *Access* *Denied* error. To get around this I copied the cdcollector folder from: C:\Program Files (x86)\ElevateDB 2 VCL-STD\RAD Studio XE4 (Delphi Win32)\examples\cdcollectorunicode to: C:\ProgramData\Elevate Software\cdcollectorunicode Then I opened the cdcollector project from this location. -- Michael Riley GySgt USMC (Ret) www.zilchworks.com |

This is a constant issue with any application - how do you put the samples anywhere that they are useful. The key is that by copying them to a personal location you get full access, but you also leave the "masters" alone so you cannot change them. Thus you can always copy them. On my applications, I have an installer for the samples which the application runs the first time it is run, but mine are quite often used by multiple users on the same computer. Developers are generally smarter than the average user, as you have shown, and know the reasons for the access denied, and the solution. -- Matthew Jones |

Lance Rasmussen CDE Software ![]() | One of the things I've done over the many years is NOT install any 3rd party components in their default folders.
I have a folder off the root of C:\ called _COMPS and will install everything there. This gets me out of trouble with UAC when running demos or recompiling the components. C:\_comps\ElevateDB 2 VCL-STD\RAD Studio XE4 (Delphi Win32)\examples\cdcollectorunicode Preferably, I'd like to see Tim adopt what some are doing and put their examples under My Documents. TMS and some others have been doing this. This helps with the examples, but again, wouldn't help to recompile the components if under Program Files.

TMS and some others have been doing this. This helps with the examples, but again, wouldn't help to recompile the components if under Program Files. I use "3rdParty" but the principles the same. I also move examples off my C drive into a dedicated examples folder on another drive Roy Lambert |
