I have 2 vb.net applications that execute baan libraries. Recently we started implementing Thin Clients in a virtual environment. In this environment, my VB applications do not communicate with BaaN.

There must be a solution for this. Anyone familiar with this problem?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi,

There have been several discussions/threads about the incompatibility of OLE with thin client and I guess Infor doesn't have any replacements as of now. Not sure if they are going to provide one or not.

Looks like this similar thread (http://www.baanboard.com/baanboard/showthread.php?t=67144) is also related to you.

Thank you for your courteous response. Sounds like the solution is NOT use a thin client where these applications are used. I don't have a lot of physical locations but it does tie my hands.

We have managed to run vb.net script on thin client and execute baan.

It would be great if you can share your ideas. Might help others wanting to do the same.

It has to do with the architecture I am connecting TO using the thin client. We are running in a virtual environment and connecting to a windows server. The administrator of the system has created images that control what we are allowed to run and the baan client is in the core image, meaning everyone sees / has access to baan.

He added additional baan client configured with user name / password and named the way we call it from vb.net scripts.

We are all new to this environment including our administrator and we don't know what we don't know. Persistence helps.

Hi,

Does it work with the WebUI? i.e. LN on web-browser?

By Thin Client I assumed thin client mode. Anyway, thanks for posting your solution. Will surely help someone with similar requirement.
