RE: DBCS

Bryan,
 
You are correct. The DBCS version of MAPICS pretty much the same except the 
character fields are set to be open. I am not sure how they would handle both 
versions on the same system. I would hope there would be only one license 
charge since the user count would be the same.
 
Regards
 
Konrad

        I am going to request a new license key and there is a question on the
        request form about DBCS.  Last year I answered no and there were no 
problems
        with the keys.
        
        I am just questioning that response this year because we do have 
Japanese
        Kanji DBCS (2962) on our operating system.  We have Japanese users on 
staff
        and also users passing through from Japan.
        
        Do you suppose we there is a DBCS version of MAPICS that we do not run
        although we run DBCS on the operating system?  I suspect this is the 
case
        because we had MAPICS long before we put Kanji on the system.
        
        Thanks in advance for any replies.
