ADS with Alaska 1.9 & 2.0

Are there any issues with accessing ADS DBF files with a mix of Alaska 2.0 and Alaska 1.9 programs. I am just starting the conversion to Alaska 2.0 and there appears to be no problems with both xBase versions accessing shared DBFs at the same time.

No, you will not have any concurrency problems because both Xbase++ 1.9 and 2.0 use the same Ads Client engine - ACE32.DLL.

Just make sure that you use the ACE32.DLL, AXCWS32.DLL, ADSLOC32.DLL set that comes from Advantage, not the files that are included with Xbase++.
