    - Renaming a field name I don't think this can be done in the following scenario, but then I am sure somebody here has figured it out. I need to rename a user defined field when the table is not in an exclusive mode. In the Customer table I have created some user defined fields with default names (NewField1, NewField2....). I have to allow the user to rename the field Name, Type, Width etc. Cannot open the customer table in Exclusive as there may numerous users hitting it at once. Creating a caption, comments etc on the fly for the field is a no brainier , But for reports etc rather than every time one or two of these fields are need, checking if the caption is blank with empty(field("fname","tablename",1)) will be a major PIA and a nightmare for support. Any and all suggestions will be greatly appreciated. Mohammed www.imaginecorp.com/whatwedo.htm Tag: Create multiple threads from VFP Tag: 223802

    - show tips property I have a form with buttons on it which contain tool tips. The form itself has SHOW TIPS set to TRUE. For some reason, in the program where this form is used, the tips will not show. When I use the same form in another program, the tips show perfectly. The command I am using is: DO FORM myform READ EVENTS What could possibly cause the tips to not display? I don't think the problem is with the form, because it works correctly when in placed in other programs. --Elliott Tag: Create multiple threads from VFP Tag: 223797

    - program location I am building a standalone ap with vfp9. I want the exe to find a set of free tables in the directory where it is run from. I know I can hard code a set of tables into the project. The exe finds them from where ever it is run. But that file set won't be where the exe expects to find them after being put in place by a program installer on a user's machine. My thought was that there would be a way for the program to tell itself where it is (like app.path in vb). I have found home() and a set of sys() functions that provide a lot of paths, but, as far as I can tell, none of them will tell the program what directory it was started from. Yes, the program can find the Windows current directory, but that won't necessarily be the same thing. Is there a way to for a vfp exe to find out where it is?

    - locking bug? I've never run into this before, perhaps because I almost never have a reason to issue an explicit lock. (This is VFP8.) * Process 1: USE mytable ALIAS mytable1 SELECT 0 USE mytable AGAIN ALIAS mytable2 FLOCK() * Process 2 (another FP instance, perhaps on a separate computer): * Open mytable, attempt an edit. If SET REPROCESS is AUTOMATIC, it just sits there waiting for a lock. * Process 1 again: USE IN mytable2 * At this point, Process 2 should be able to continue with its edit, but it does not, not until Process 1 also unlocks mytable1. Even worse, Process 2 sometimes becomes unresponsive. Any comments? Tag: Create multiple threads from VFP Tag: 223791

    - Method corruption - vfp9! I think Microsoft is slowly but surely getting a handle on this. VFP6 was notorious about this, VFP7 better, VFP8 good. This is the first time I've seen it with VFP9. As with every previous version, the method code was corrupted. In this case, not only was the method code corrupted, but the form could not be saved. Both at once! That is new, usually it was one or the other, this is the first time I've seen them both happen at once. http://zootal.no-ip.info/vfpstuff/evilvrp9.jpg Tag: Create multiple threads from VFP Tag: 223772

    - System menu bar not updating My application uses the main foxpro screen as the main screen, I have customized the system menu and have mdi child windows that spawn within the main window. There is a toolbar that is docked at position 0 (top). When the child windows are maximized, the system menu bar changes properly to display the minimize, normalize and maximize icons on the far right side. Normal behaviour is for these icons to disappear if the window is normalized or minimized. I have trapped the _screen resize event with a bindevent() procedure, in which i resize multiple objects in the application including other toolbars in dock positions 1 and 3. Things still function normally when this happens. However, if i attempt to resize objects(specifically a pageframe) within the toolbar docked at position 0 in this bindevent() procedure, in the same manner as the toolbars docked at positions 1 and 3, the system menu no longer functions properly. When the child windows are minimized or normalized, the minimize, normalize and maximize icons in the system menu bar are NOT disappearing. And when they are clicked the application crashes. Another weird thing is that before I got to this point, the only way that I could resize this toolbar at all was to hide it before resizing and then show it again, otherwise the application crashed. Specifically the line of code, that if removed the system menu bar functions normally is: toolbar.pageframe.width = _screen.width. Tag: Create multiple threads from VFP Tag: 223764

    - Polish for the final application? Hi, Using VFP 9.0 here and I'm getting ready to distribute version 1.0 of my little application. I've compiled the program into a .exe and when I run it I see that my main form is inside a Visual Fox Pro window. Two questions: 1) What do I have to do to make it so that when I click the red-x on the VFP window it exits my application? Right now I get a message that reads, "Cannot quit Visual FoxPro". If I click the red-x on my main form it exits the application. 2) Isn't there a way to make my form the main form of the program? Right now it's just floating inside the VFP application window. I'd like it to look integrated. I've played around with Show Window and Desktop properties but they don't do what I'm looking for. I'm guessing it has something to do with the _screen object but haven't figured it out yet. Thanks in advance, Linn Tag: Create multiple threads from VFP Tag: 223706

    - VFP9: Sending table VIA FTP Hello, This sounds like a stupid question, but I can't figure out how to maintain long field names in a table when I COPY TO upload FOR conditions. I send this copied table VIA FTP to another machine, which appends back into the same table structure as the copy originated from. How do I send a copied DBC to maintain those long field names, or is there another method for doing the same thing without having to send a DBC? Thanks for the reply.

    - Have VFP9 now, and well, just how do you use Report Listener? Here's what I'm trying to accomplish... I have several reports that make up a "final report" that is sent to our customers. I've gotten the system to the point that I can "print" several reports at a time(without report listener) but I want to be able to run all of them to a pdf file. I currently do this individually using FRX2Any.app specifically for PDF files. If I try to run my multiple report routine using FRX2Any right now, I get all kinds of garbage... Can anyone help me get this running properly? To run the multiple reports, I select all the data I need for all reports into a single dbf/cursor, then just print the report(s) from there, basically stepping through the dbf. Thanks!

    - report long text problem hi all, I have a problem with a field in a report. This field is in the group footer and it is a note that comes from a Memo field. If this note override in length (many lines of text) the first page (summing the detail rows) i got a report with a second page blank , the last rows are missing and the page footer data are only in the first page. I tried to change the memo to char and no difference. It seems like that the Report Designer cannot handle field with more then one line of text that causes the report to print a second page... It seems very strange to me that no one has had this situation thus this problem. Any idea about that? TIA Tag: Create multiple threads from VFP Tag: 223684

    - BufferMode Testing Hi FoxPro Gurus, Am doing testing. Had 2 same forms which using same table running at the same time: - Updation on Form A, after pressing "TableUpdate button", records updated in Form A. - Updation effective in Form B only if pressing "TableUpdate Button / TableRevert Button", then will automatically jumped to the most Updated record. - If did not press "TableUpdate/TableRevert Button", the program skipped the updated record and shown the next current record. *Basically behind the "TableUpdate Button" is coded "tableupdate()" "TableRevert Button" is coded "tablerevert()" *Had set the buffermode in the form to "2 Optimistic" Below are a few of my doubts: 1. What/why is the reason causing this problem? 2. How can i avoid this issue? 3. What is this to do with record locking/unlock? 4. Is there any better way to do this in a multi-user environment? thank you so much for your time. regards, ShallowRacer -- Message posted via DBMonster.com http://www.dbmonster.com/Uwe/Forums.aspx/foxpro-general/200605/1 Tag: Create multiple threads from VFP Tag: 223666

    - VFP8 and servlets I wrote a servlet which resides on my local OC4J server that connects to an Oracle database and insert records into a table. In VFP8, I use CREATEOBJECT("Msxml2.XMLHTTP.4.0") to make the connection to the OC4J server. I use the OPEN() and SEND() methods of the xml object to pass my INSERT command. Currently, within a VFP SCAN I build an INSERT statement and use the OPEN() and SEND() methods one record at a time. Through the SEND() method, I am sending 65313 records, but only 999 records get inserted into my targeted Oracle table. I believe all 65313 records should be INSERTed (I am able to INSERT all the records through an ODBC session). I am wondering if anyone might have used VFP to connect to a servlet to INSERT records to a remote table and can share an example of their code. I suspect that I have a memory leak in my servlet, but Iâ??m wondering if my VFP approach is correct. Am I using the correct object to connect to my servlet? I eventually want to send (not sure how to do that at the moment) an array set of values and loop through it in the servlet. For now, I am testing the connection and seeing if I can INSERT all records one record at a time into a remote table. Regards, Joe Tag: Create multiple threads from VFP Tag: 223662

    - Odd behaviour Hi all, hope you had a great weekend! A bug was introduced to this program that I'm working on last friday, and the only thing that I had done was insert-save-compile, and then remove-save-compile one line of code to test something out. Here's what happens... 1: set defa to c:\foxprow\etudiant 2: set view to ss (view that's been saved, opens up all of the relevant tables, etc. etc.) 3: do ssmain (the main program) 4: Choose File -> Course Information 5: Hit exit in the Course Information window (notice I haven't made any changes, just a direct exit) 6: Now it goes to hell... -Program error: Unrecognized command verb (I hit ignore here) -It highlights a line in the code, which was UNCHANGED, and I get Alias 'ETUDSD' not found. (I hit ignore here) -Opens a Open Table dialog box (I hit cancel here) -It highlights ANOTER line in the code, again an unchanged line, and gives Program Error 'No table is in USE' (Again, Ignore) 7: After closing the ssmain part, and checking the SET, all of the tables are closed. As I said before, I added and then removed a line of code, and I think I might have re-generated the *.spr after changing the valid clause, but that I changed back and generated the *.spr AGAIN ... I think it was directly related to another problem I was having. Should inserting and then deleting a line of code and re-generating/compiling the screen bring up these errors in the *.prg, and close all of my tables?

I've been playing with the code and I really think it's a start to
giving VFP GUI apps MT capability at least the equivalent of VB6 which has
some basic MT capability and is similar to VFP as far as Apartment
multi-threading.
Calvin's example actually blocks on the main thread so I redid it
somewhat to avoid that and replaced some commands to make it backward
compatible with earlier VFP versions. Not perfect but I think it's a start.
