Running Windows app on Thin client doesn't work
Hi,
I have created my first Windows forms app in .Net 2.0; installed it on a thin client (not sure which version of the Windows OS it is running); when I double-click on the exe file to run it, the hourglass comes on briefly, then goes off and nothing else happens. If I run the app on the C: drive of a thick client (running Windows XP) it works OK. The app is a Windows forms/ Crystal Reports app; using a Microsoft Access database. Any idea on why nothing happens when I run it on a thin client and how to resolve it?
Thanks in advance.
I'm not sure what a "thin client" really is either...But, I did install the .Net 2.0 framework and the Crystal Reports runtime; hadn't thought of the MDAC data access components. I will check on that and get the exact version of the Windows OS that is running; my understanding is that it is some form of Windows server os.
Thanks for your input.
OK, I got the details that "thin client" means that when the user logs into their workstation it actually logs them on remotely to the server with limited permissions.
Anyway, I discovered that I had _not_ installed the Crystal Reports runtime, which I thought I had installed; after I installed the Crystal Reports runtime, my application runs..
Thanks for the help!!
