$250-750 USD

Paid on delivery
Seeking Delphi developer who can transfer current source code from Delphi application that only runs on a 16- bit machine. Current Delphi application is only capable of generating 900k 5 column rows (main file) and is limited to 10,000 records per menu file that gets bumped against (main file) rows. New application has to have capacity to generate 50m 5 column rows and not be limited to records per menu file that gets bumped against each row. This can be done in an external database if necessary as long as it is quick. I’m not married to what program or application you work with to build this application. I only care about the end results, since I will be the only person using it. The aesthetics (beauty) of the application user interface (UI) when finished is not as important as function and speed. The current database program that’s built in “Delphi SQL 3” is limited in its capabilities of generating rows because of its internal database limits of 900k rows. I have the original source code for the Delphi program. • Work Type: Software Development - Desktop Programming - Other • Employment: One-time project • Operating system: Windows XP, 7 and 10
Project ID: 9024854

Good day! i have been working with Delphi for 20 years since Delphi 1.0. I can update it to new Delphi version and it will be the most quickest variant and the major reason - there will be no mistake, because it will be almost the same code, where i will change all restrictions

Hi, Delphi 3 happens to be the first language I used in my first job! I am now using Delphi 10 Seattle (v19 really) and it's still going well. May prefer Visual Studio 2015 but who really cares - as long as the output is FAST, and results are ACCURATE. Would you mind sharing the current EXE? If it is small just attach it to a message, or if larger maybe put it on a filelocker site password protected zip. I'm confident I can do this for you quickly and efficiently, first time. "we only do" = "we do NOT try and do NOT enjoy revisits" Regards... Richard

Hello. I have over 5 years of Delphi experience, I worked with older Delphi versions, such as Delphi 5 and 7. Also I worked in teams before, so no problems with reading and modifying 3d-party code. I plan to stick to Delphi language for you project, that will eliminate the chance of random error during translation to other language. Of course I will be using modern version (XE5). I am not currently sure what kind of backend (DB storage) to use, but I have experience with great variety of SQL DB Engines, such as MSSQL, MySQL, PostgreSQL, Interbase and Oracle. I will choose what is more appropriate after investigating source codes and project functionality.

I have more than 10 years of experience with Delphi. I performed tasks similar to yours for my pre-previous full time employer: there were some 16-bit Borland Pascal applications using Btrieve database and they were transferred into Delphi5 applications using SQL.

Hello Sir, I'm assuming the Delphi version of the compiler is the number 3? Do you need a port to another version of Delphi or just change your DB? I would propose use MSDE (Microsoft SQL Desktop Editions), which is free Background: - Experience in development with Delphi and MSQL Server. Several projects: - Software for Car Workshop management - Software for "real time" automated factories connected to PLC/SCADA - Work with MSSQL at analysis and database design levels, knowledge of use of functions, stored procedures, triggers, etc.. - Use of ReportBuilder as a tool to make reports. - Design of VCL components for Delphi owner library. Best regards, Josep Ciberta

Cheers! Wow, it looks like and old Delphi 5 program. I suppose it's using Paradox database. Well, If You kindly send me the source code so I can have a better perspective about what You want, I suppose I can have it done pretty quickly. We might use MySQL or Postgres on local host (even remotely, your choice) and that will definetely take care of it. Kindly contact me and I'll give You a preview as soon as possible.

Hello There, I am a Software/Web Developer, and Security Analyst. I have been working with Delphi since version 4 and have a lot of experience with regard to older applications, and porting them to newer chip-sets and hardware configurations. I will (re)build you a multi-threaded application in Delphi XE8, using a SQL database as the back-end, this will make for extremely fast querying, and unlimited record lengths which should suit your needs. I will provide 1. Your Binary(compiled) Application. 2. Well Commented and Documented Source Code. 3. Long term support, and updates where required. If you choose me as your Freelancer, I will provide you with a project outline and a screenshot of a few possible layouts for your GUI(Graphical User Interface). From there based on your idea's and approval the project will commence, as I progress I will provide you with updates, and screenshots. Get in touch if you have any further questions, I look forward to dealing with you. Regards, Gareth
