    - Sedna June 2006 CTP posted From http://msdn.microsoft.com/vfoxpro/letters/, by Milind Lele Sedna June 2006 CTP We have released the second CTP (Community Technology Preview) of Sedna. The June 2006 CTP includes latest builds of NET4COM and MY library for VFP. NET4COM is a library of COM wrappers around commonly used functionality from the .NET Framework 2.0. This allows these API to be called from Visual FoxPro. The library also includes source code and samples. The MY namespace is a native Visual FoxPro class library that contains similar wrappers for SYS() functions, Windows API and Windows Script Host properties and methods. The idea is to make a select few commonly used API accessible in a form that is easy to discover and navigate. ...... -- Cindy Winegarden MCSD, Microsoft Most Valuable Professional cindy@cindywinegarden.com Tag: Art Bergquist will speak at ChicagoFUDG on June 13 Tag: 224157

    - VFP 9 Report Designer Is it only my machine, or has anybody else experienced this. (using reportlisteners to preview/print ), The labels keep disappearing in Preview I have to include the table in the Datasession window, even though it is in the DE, to be able to pick fields from the Expression builder. Deleting an object refreshes the whole screen When doing multiple bands, the tables have to be related, even though the form calling the report has the initial table with corresponding paramatized view open. Only tables and no views in my experience... The bands have the view name in quotes as target aliases Get an error ".... is not related...". Cannot figure out "commandclauses". Listeners do not respect While or For clauses of the Report Form, Need to print only one parent record with multiple child records in 5 paramatized views. Kludgy as hell Sending email using successor listeners is erratic, on some machines it works perfect others the html report is out of whack Lines and labels not properly sized etc. All examples and the Pundits make a big deal about conditional formatting...cutesy red and blues etc... In the real world who gives a S.... I would rather be able to control output without having to write a convoluted program Wondering if its worth it. Why not make the report designer like a form, its kinda the same principle, both with a table in the backend.. Just drop classes, controls etc.. Now in this crazy world of specialists, a new breed of Report specialists is all we need. Tag: Art Bergquist will speak at ChicagoFUDG on June 13 Tag: 224106

    - something similar to shortname function in filesystemobject I have got a table of items, and I need to produce a unique but recognisable 8-character descriptor for each one. The problem is that the items might be so similar that the first 8 characters are the same. Is there a way of generating a 8-character descriptor like this.

Is there a control (or does anyone have one?) that could be dropped on a form that is already validated as a time field?

    - finding procedures in a procedure file I came across some odd behavior today, and would appreciate feedback on this. To demonstrate the issue, create two files: File 1: zoot.prg Procedure zoot =zoot1() set procedure to =zoot1a() return File 2: zoot1.prg PROCEDURE zoot1 WAIT WIND `ZOOT1' TIME 1 RETURN PROCEDURE ZOOT1A WAIT WIND `ZOOT1A' TIME 1 RETURN Then in the command windows, DO ZOOT. It does the zoot1 wait window as expected. Surprisingly, it also does the zoot1a wait window. Why? I added the SET PROCEDURE TO line to clear any open procedure files, thinking that DOing zoot1 did an implicit SET PROC TO ZOOT1, but it still works. CLEAR PROGRAM stops it from working. Is this an undocumented feature? I was not aware that DOing a PRG file would load make all procedures in the PRG available, even after the top level procedure was exited, and therefore no longer in the call stack. We also discovered that suspending VFP would clear it from memory, as if VFP arbitrarily clears such stuff when it wants to or thinks it needs to.

    - Copying a Database (DBC) Is there a trick to copy a database from one directory to another? I am trying to set up a test area for a system on my computer. I have duplicated the file structure for the drive on which the DBC is located. I have copied the files for the database and the tables in the database. I have used the SUBST command to map part of my drive to the same drive letter as the DBC is expecting. But it doesn't work. The Validate database command shows errors for just about every table in the database. For most files it says: "Table is not in a database." If I use modify database and then click on a table, it says "Cannot resolve backlink." Is there anything I can do short of recreating the whole database from scratch?

    - Foxpro 2.6 Error 1104 Hello Everyone, I've been searching through all of the posts here about error 1104 and can't seem to find a solution that has worked for us. First off, we are not using Terminal Services or Citrix. The apps are being run on each local machine, accessing data files on a Windows 2003 server. The network is mostly gigabit with a few of the machines still using 10/100 cards. So far we have tried the following: - Disabling antivirus on both server and workstation - Disabling all automated backups - Changed from Foxpro 2.5 to Foxpro 2.6 - Set CATMAN = OFF We have an error control program that is currently working around the problem, but it is more of a band-aid as opposed to actually fixing the problem. Whenever the 1104 occurs, the error control program logs it to an error file and then tries again. The second try has worked every time. Lately, the error occurs mostly on the SEEK command, but has occured during the USE, APPE, GO, and SKIP commands in the past. We changed one of the apps so that instead of using a CDX file, it uses an IDX file. We have not had an error with that program since then. We ran a simple disk check on the server and did not find any errors, but we have not had a chance to run a more in depth disk scan due to the number of users that are dependant on using the data. We have checked the cables and NICs, recrimped cable ends, etc and we can't seem to find any problems with any of the hardware, but we haven't ruled it out completely. If anyone has any ideas, we are open to all suggestions. Any and all ideas are welcome.

    - Cheap OLE DB tool for dbc/dbf access? Any suggestions on available tools (free, cheap, common) which can open VFP8/9 dbc tables and issue DDL statements (alter table stuff...) SQL Queries, execute stored procs etc.... I'd like to have a few options to give to our customers who don't have VFP, and I'd rather not provide an interface myself.

    - Issues with menus Hi, Running VFP 9.0, trying add a menu to my application. I have created the menu, added three pull down items, File, Reports and Help. In the File menu I put a Close option to exit the application. Here's the setup: Prompt: \<File Result: Submenu Options: Key Label: ALT+F Key Text: ALT+F Container: Left Object: None Pad Name: File Menu Level: File Prompt: \<Close Result: Bar# _mfi_quit Options: Key Label: CTRL+F4 Key Text: CTRL+F4 Skip For: .F. (I tried leaving this blank originally, same result either way.) Resource: _mfi_close (I tried _mfi_exit too, didn't work either.) Also, in the general options for the menu I turned on Top-Level Form. In the Init() of my form I have: DO menus\mainmenu.mpr WITH THIS, .F. (Tried .T. too) Form.ShowWindow = 2 - As Top-Level Form. When I run my application the menu appears like I expected except the Close option is greyed out. I can't seem to find any property settings to adjust this, any ideas? Is this the default state of a menu option and do I have to control that in code somehow at run time? All I'm trying to do at this point is be able to exit the application. The other thing I want to do is include an About item in the Help menu, what's the best way to do this and be able to display the version number of my application, not just the version of VFP? Beyond that I'll want to add some items for reports but I suspect those will be easy once I understand these first issues better. Thanks in advance, Linn Tag: Art Bergquist will speak at ChicagoFUDG on June 13 Tag: 223905

    - Opening Cursor My applets irritatingly open with a Wait_Cursor and a tool tip "Click to activate this control", neither of which is part of the applet. To activate the applet eg by clicking on a 'Play' button I have to click twice. The first click just seems to re-position the screen and the second click initiates the applet correctly. Am I doing something wrong or is this a feature of Java? -- aychee ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Posted via http://www.codecomments.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Tag: Art Bergquist will speak at ChicagoFUDG on June 13 Tag: 223904

    - Image control replacement I'm looking for an ole replacement for the image control. I need to have at least as much image quality as the windows thumbnails view and, hopefully, more functionality. The image control (VFP9)'s resolution is terrible, imo. Inexpensive and/or public domain would be a great help, too. Recommendations? -Lew Tag: Art Bergquist will speak at ChicagoFUDG on June 13 Tag: 223875

    - Just an observation In some of the Microsoft magazine adds you see a guy at a desk and just behind him a bookcase. The bookcase shows various flavors of development tools in colorful retail boxes. How hard do you think it would be for Microsoft to slip a VFP box into that cabinet with the other tools?
