IDE

ActiveX

#1335 - Fixed - ability to run Crystal Reports Report Viewer ActiveX Version 11 from within dBASE Plus (both IDE and Runtime Application)

The fix for this issue was to turn off the Linker setting that sets

         the DEP bit in the .exe header.

         In addition, this build now calls to turn ON DEP during dBASE startup

         (SetProcessDEPPolicy(1)) instead of turning it off - as we have been

         doing when Operating System policy settings permit.

         This MAY cause dBASE to sometimes be shutdown by DEP.

         This build MUST be tested with DEP enabled for all applications

         and tested on Windows Server 2008, 2012, etc. (which default to

         requiring DEP be enabled for all applications) to see if we have

         a problem or not.
