Code: Select all

cOneDriveFolder := GETENV( "OneDrive" )
? cOndDriveFolder
 
Now we can use cOneDriveFolder like any other folder to write or read

We can also map onedrive to a drive letter (no external utilities are required. we can do it within windows itself) and use this drive letter for reading and writing.

Whatever we write will be synchronized by Windows across all computers used by the same user.

But there will be a lag in synchronization and so can not be used to read/write data files simultaneosly from different computers.

Silvio,

Microsoft will not be providing options, enhancements, or even support, for any OS except the current version of Windows 10. Backward compatibility is just too difficult. They learned that from Apple. OS updates move along, and are provided to computers that will handle them. When a computer can no longer be compatible with new OS features, it will not ve upgradeavble. This is what Apple does, and you will see more and more of this happening with Windows. The result will be to offset OS size increases caused by new features by simply not including legacy code that does not have usefulness in the current version.

Thus, as Nages points out, you will need to look at an alternative storage option.

I did a test on onedrive. I inserted an exe with some dbfs archives. Then I used two computers with Windows 10 obviously I have to have the same Microsoft account on both PCs.

When I insert or modify a dbf on a PC shortly after I have the change in the other maybe if you understand how to do it we could use this technique instead of a lan.

But now I have a laptop with Windows Seven and I wanted to try to install OneDrive.

A long time ago I read that OneDrive could be installed on Windows Seven but now I can't find the method

Silvio, I have not been using that method but I think it can be a good idea. I will do some tests in the next few days and see what I can find out.

Microsoft is "retiring" a lot of their older programs. They have significantly modified OneDrive over the past two. years so the version that might have worked with Windows 7 would no longer be available today. People wanted OneDrive to work more like iCloud where your work is automatically saved, and then updated on other connected devices. It is all transparent.

I will do some experiments and update comments in the next day or two.
