    - file is in use and used('tablename') I use vfp8 and winxp. When I run this code something strange happens. IF USED('sdstud') then USE IN 'sdstud' endif USE sdstud IN 0 exclusive && line 47 In line 47 I get 'file is in use' error message. How come, when I closed it in the instructions above line 47? When I run the code a step at a time, used('sdstud') is false so it goes straight to line 47 and reports 'file is in use'. Can anyone help me? Sincerely, Jan Nordgreen Tag: use run in xp? Tag: 190754

    - Triggers Hi Q1. I have a small problem, actually I am looking for something we use in SQL server Inserted.CustName or Deleted.CustNam Q2. I have a table A. I have some triggers in this to update table I am flocking table A before updation. Do I need to flock table B in the trigger ? If I flock table B in the trigger, will the locking and unlocking will happen fo every record ? because my updation is 'update where <condition>' for more that on record. Will it execute the trigger and lock table B for all the record separatly ? That is if the update condition is for 10 records, it will update record in A and execute the trigger then update the 2nd record and execute th trigger etc Mike Tag: use run in xp? Tag: 190740

    - Newbie question I am fairly new to programming/foxpro. I am rewriting an existing dos application using vfp 8. The application has the ability to setup new company files. Upon creating these company files, it creates a folder in the application directory (for example if I setup company 54, a folder called "Data54" will be created with all the dbf files in that folder). My question is, how can I make this happen? I want to create a folder for a company to work out of. Any help at all would be much, much appreciated!! Tag: use run in xp? Tag: 190719

    - Running Fox Exe's from a local network, VFP5.0 vs VFP6 - 8 I have several small office applications written in Foxpro. Years ago I bought some of them up from Foxpro 2.6 & FPW 3.x into the what was then the newest 'Foxpro', 5.x, and then wrote a few more apps. When later on 6.0 had been out for a while I tried to move up to that version. To that point all I had to do when distributing an application was to put the exe, two Dlls, DBFs and a few other files in a directory on the local network protected by the appropriate NT security. Then put an shortcut on the users desktop pointing that exe. With lots of changes in our office responsibilties this is easy to connect new workstations to these apps. With 6.0 that all changed to have to setup the apps on each computer even though the exe and dbfs could be shared on the network. This is what I had to do with VB apps (which is one among other reasons I didn't use VB alot). I tried to putting all the files the 6.0 setup wizard was putting on each computer on the network in the exe's directory but it didn't work. I guess this is because of the files not being registered properly in the setup. I was hoping that Foxpro would just look for these files in that directory first without checking the registry The upshot of all this is that all the apps are still on 5.x . I suppose that I could set up one VFP 6.0 app on each workstation and then as long as the rest of the apps used the same componets they would not require an individual setup. Before I go that route I'm wondering if there is a way to run 6.0 ( or actually I have 7.0 now) the way that I ran the 5.x apps on the network ?? Tag: use run in xp? Tag: 190712

    - Uploading Large files using XMLHTTP Hi All, I am using XMLHTTP object in VFP to upload files using VFP and having the problem of string too long to fit when uploading files more than 16MB. The error occurs when I try to concatenate the FILETOSTR data with the header info. Temporarily I worked around it by using a memo field. But then it gives the same error in the XMLHTTPObject.Send method. Any body knows any workarounds? * This is a pseudo code only x = FILETOSTR(FileToUpload) BuildPostData(x) && Builds the Header information etc XMLHTTPObject.Send(x) If the above cannot be fixed any other fox pro code that may work?

    - VFP email client Hi, I asked recently about accessing port 110 using VFP to be able to parse email in a POP3 account before it was downloaded to a client. I got some great help on the Winsock control which did the job well. Couple of questions: Any ideas how to cleanly disconnect? The POP3 server keeps the connection open for a period of time if I use the Winsock Close() method, and VFP hangs for a similar period of time if I issue a POP3 "QUIT" command. This is just annoying, not important. Now I can access POP3, and can send email in various ways (using BLAT for this, but CDO and wwipstuff are other SMTP based options), I wanted to see if I could write a basic email client using VFP. All works well so far unless I want to reply to an HTML email. In OE or Outlook, you click "Reply" and you can type your reply into what looks like an edit box, but with the original HTML nicely rendered below. Can this be done in VFP? I can display the original HTML using the Web Browser control, but I'm a bit stuck on creating an interactively editable browser object. I'm only doing this as an experiment. It's non-production, but would welcome any help. Neil Tag: use run in xp? Tag: 190672

    - Subreport w/ External Foxpro DBF I'm having a problem with a report. I have a problem getting my subreport linked to my main report. I have a primary file used for the main report, and a second (stand alone) file for the subreport. The subreport is not showing any information from the second file. I'm at a loss, and could use some advise. I have included some details below. I have a file that includes multiple fields that are used in the main report: customer name, customer number, job number, company number, and equipment id. I have a second file which is a list of equipment used on a given job: (subreport) job number, company number, equipment id, serial number, model # These files are not joined in the report, I wish to use subreport links to join the two together. The second file will list the detail info for a given piece of equipment and for a given job. I setup the links as follows: ?Pm-Customer_history.ncompany = cs_equip.nCompany ?Pm-Customer_history.nsite_equipid = cs_equip.nsite_equipID ?Pm-Customer_history.njobnumber = cs_equip.njobnumer The selection formula (record) on the subreport was left as it was created by the SubReport Links window. -------------------------------- Thx in advance, Dan Tallent Tag: use run in xp?

    - Unique Identifier for .MNX file I need to grant access to a particular menu option depending on which user has logged in. I am planning to create a DBF file which will contain the menu options that accessible by each userid. Then at the time of running the MPR file, I can modify the SKIP FOR clause if the userid has access to that menu or not To accomplish this task, I need to know if there is a unique identifier in the MNX file that is created by Menu Builder. I want to tie in the userid with the key for MNX file for the purpose of lookup. I browsed the MNX file but I am a little confused about the records in that file.

    - Insert and update function! Hi All I have just created two database files with master and detail relationship. For now I'm getting trouble with writing "insert and save" function. Firstly I used VFP6.0 built in master detail relationship to create a form. It works fine. My first question: Can I get into their built in "Insert" and "Update" function for my little modification purpose Or if not, I wrote "Insert" and "save" by myself. As I clicked them the first time, it works fine. But after click "save" and it jumped back to "insert" mode, the old data were displayed on the screen, instead of creating a new record, or even my code was included "append blank" Now I found that the problems were from "the cursor were still pointed at the last record after I hit "save and insert". What exactly should be the problem of my coding Please help Sam. Tag: use run in xp? Tag: 190646

Yes, but you must RUN a real .EXE - not a .BAT file or a DOS command.
