Guest Sword Posted April 15, 2006 Report Posted April 15, 2006 Can someone please give me an idiot guide to ETKA pricing. I have ETKA, but for some reason the prices will not show. I understand it means doing some config settings in the .ini files, but which ones, where does the Price file go etc. Thanks Quote
dave_m Posted April 15, 2006 Report Posted April 15, 2006 i couldn't get my head around doing that part of it either Quote

Rallim Posted April 18, 2006 Report Posted April 18, 2006 If I remember right you have to create a floppy disk with the price data on it, I did it when I first installed EKTA - 3 years ago :lol: but have just never deleted the installation on the hard drive when reinstalling updating the computer and it just runs from the executable and retains the price info, which normally is within the ballpark figure quoted by the dealers. Any reference on the ekta disk relating to making a floppy disk? Gordon. Quote

Rallim Posted April 18, 2006 Report Posted April 18, 2006 It was on the disk.... your going to make me look for the disk now aren't you..... give me a minute.... :lol: Gordon Quote
Rallim Posted April 18, 2006 Report Posted April 18, 2006 Found the disk... I've quickly scanned the instructions and it involced copying a directory of the CD called PRICE and then running the program inside the dir called CRPRS.EXE. You point this to the data file, LexPrs.dat (also in the same dir) which will then copy the price list to a floppy. You then use the Maintenance function within EKTA to update the pricing... Does that shed any light at all or are your installs completely different??? Gordon. Quote
Guest Sword Posted April 19, 2006 Report Posted April 19, 2006 thanks for the replies, any chance you can upload the lexprs.dat file? I havent got one in the PRICE folder. Quote
Rallim Posted April 20, 2006 Report Posted April 20, 2006 Its too big to upload, about 3.4Meg in size, but it zips down to 846kb.If you want it. send me your email address and I'll send it to you. Gordon Quote
