Installing the BDE with Wise 5.0

Dear collegues,

I have some problems installing the BDE (delphi 1.0) on a Windows3.11
system using Wise 5.0

Wise installs the BDE on my system but then my applications comes up
with an error: 'invalid configuration parameter'.
When I use the Database Engine Configuration I see that the
installationprogram usest DB437NL0.LD as the langdriver, but I don't
have that LD file on my system. When I now manually change the
langdriver to 'dBase ENU cp437' everything works fine....

1) Did anybody have similar problems?
2) How is the langdriver chosen (can I influence that choice)?
3) Where can I get the db437nl0.ld driver?
4) anybody any good or bad experiences with WISE?

Please e-mail to  s...@pi.net, thanks..

You really should ask GLBS technical support!

No problems with WISE _4.0_ and the German drivers. (though, to be
honest, I do not use the code created by their wizard - I am relying
on my own script)

WISE 5 uses include scripts to support deployment of BDE, DAO etc, have a
look at the scirpts in WISE\INCLUDE , I think you will find the problem
there, should be simple to fix
