Prev Next

System Requirements

  • Personal computer running Windows 7.0 or higher
  • 64 bit CPU (we are not supporting legacy platforms)
  • You have elevated privileges to do installations (e.g. admin rights on your local machine)
  • Min 2 GB, but more memory is stronly recommended espeically when working with large data
  • B4P requires less than 20 MB disk space
  • Internet connectivity is required to access documentation, but not during normal program execution

Software Requirements

  • A standard editor is sufficient for developing the code. Optionally, install a more fancy text editor program of choice to do the coding. I strongly recommend an editor supporting UNICODE.
  • Web browser installed: Microsoft Explorer, Microsoft Edge or Google Chrome
  • Install 7-ZIP, a free of charge compression and decompression tool. This tool is needed because standard Windows installations provide no command level ZIP tool. Without this tool, some functions, including file compression/decompression functions and loading Excel files, will not work.
