So I finally got my new computer for other machine. Did a fresh new install of PC-DMIS and Datapage +5.2, on windows 10. So a few of us still use the External Command, Listening at the top and End at the bottom. Well if you don't install Datapage 5.0 and install 5.2, this little knickknack don't work. spent all day with Hexagon just to find this out. Now if you put External Command without -END or -E it works which takes a while to record. You have to have Data Importer 5.0 gathering info and Datapage 5.0, and it will still show up in DataPage 5.2. Now it actually seems to work fine on my windows 7 computer, even though I have both Datapages installed, I do use the Data Importer 5.2 gathering the information, results no problem. So I'm kinda guessing this might be a Windows 10 thing. Now Stats update seems to work no problem.
One more thing to add, I'm sure Hexagon will get right on this and fix it
This forces SQL to use version 10 of sql types. But It's been about 3 years since I actually had to do it so I don't recall the actual info.
I manged to get all of this working. I uninstalled DP+ 5.2 and the CLM 1.5. Installed 5.0 and the CLM. Created a database, which worked. Then, reinstalled 5.2. It didn't work with the database that 5.0 created (needed update, but couldn't because of the column problem). So, I created a new database within 5.2. That gave the error which this code fixes.
However, now I am up to finding the dataimporter.exe.config file. It's not in my DataPage+ installation folder. Where is it? Or do I need to create it and put it in the DP+ 5.2 folder? Is that it?

VinniUSMC Sorry I haven't been more help. This was a one off thing I fixed a few years ago and it was a bit ad-hoc. There is a global settings xml file in the public documents for datapage that might also need to have this put into it.
