Statusbar Color Scheme ?
Can anybody tell me what color scheme is used by the VFP 8.0 StatusBar ?
I want to use my own status bar but with the same color scheme as being used
by the VFP StatusBar. My Statusbar control will appear in only selected

Protecting your code
Hi,
How to protect your code when distributing class libraries (vcx) and
Databases. How to stop some customer to make "improvements" to your stored
procedures? I do not want to include the Databases and or class libraries in
the project(s) as some of the libraries are shared by multiple APP/EXE and
the Databases need to change depending on customer needs (like for example
adding a new index to a table or to repair indexes and reestablish
relations). Is there a way to make the source code (equivalent to a prg)
disappear? Tag: Define a Window with Custom Color ? Tag: 214891
Menu Path solve
Taking the "IN LOCFILE(.....) portion out of the menu generator allows
menues truely to be integrated in APP/EXE files. With the standard menu
generator you will have to include the menu.mpx in the original location
which also does not allow to make a true setup where the enduser selects the
destination directory.
Scenario.
app directory: F:\myproject
source fiels: F:\myproject\source
The menu on the developing machine with the other SCX and prg is in the
source directory.
Running the "standard" Menu generator will generate some code like
ON SELECTION PAD _1hv06ai6t OF (m.cMenuName) ;
DO _1hv06ai6u ;
IN LOCFILE("\Myproject\sourc\MyMENU" ,"MPX;MPR|FXP;PRG" ,"WHERE is MyMENU?")
Now if on the destination machine there is no directory Myproject\source
then the above menu code will popup that file selection box asking for the
MyMENU even though the menu had been included in the project and compiled
into the app file and had been already executed with the "DO Mymenu.mpr
....." Command earlier in the code.
Changing the code to
ON SELECTION PAD _1hv06ai6t OF (m.cMenuName) ;
DO _1hv06ai6u
- ommitting the LOCFILE part will work and resolve the above problem. Tag: Define a Window with Custom Color ? Tag: 214890
True case structure of file path?
Hi. Believe it or not, I'm using Visual FoxPro to generate JavaScript
code. This code references images found on a web site. Problem. The
server must be case sensitive. In other words, if I generate [./ygl
casket offerings/metal caskets/premier
metals/pharaohfrontppt_thumb.jpg], I get file not found. I need to
generate [/YGL Casket Offerings/Metal Caskets/Premier
Metals/PharaohFrontPPT_thumb.jpg].
Is there a function or utility that will retrieve the true case
structure of a given file and it's path? The only other option is to
convert all files and folders to lowercase before publishing them in
Frontpage.
Any advice would be really appreciated...Dennis Tag: Define a Window with Custom Color ? Tag: 214885

Need help! Need older version of FoxPro and/or help.
I was a database developer using FoxPro back in the early to mid 90s. (I
cannot remember which version we used.) I have not touched FoxPro since 95
and do not have the program or manuals from what ever version that may have
been. I got Visual FoxPro version 8.0 a couple of years ago and I'm just now
trying to get into it. I have to say I don't like it a bit! I was very
comfortable with the older environment where all the code was written out in
command files, except for reports and forms. The help file in version 8.0
does not include enough of the old commands and syntax for me to develop my
program command files. I also do not like the form and report generators.
I am not writing just to complain, rather I would like some help to see if
any of you would know what version was used 10 years ago and if anyone has an
old copy they would part with. I really need the help file! I know I should
learn the newer version, but I'm just an old dog. Does anyone have any ideas?
I would kill for all of my old source code, but that belonged to the company
which was sold in 95.
Thank you,

Resolving Path
I got a form class with the following custom properties
menu - which contains the menu name for the form
defpopup - which contains the default popup to get opened on the form
This is the code in the init snipped
DO (THIS.MENU) WITH THIS, THIS.TAG
IF TYPE("THIS.DefPopup") = "C" AND !EMPTY(THIS.DefPopup) AND
POPUP(THIS.DefPopup)
ACTIVATE POPUP (THIS.DefPopup) NOWAIT
ENDIF
etc. etc
Works great - only problem is that when I distribute the app only I also got
to distribute the mpx or I get an error - Now the menu is included in the
project and the command DO (THIS.menu).... works fine - so in this case it
can find the menu inside the app/exe files only if the mpx is missing the
command ACTIVATE POPUP ... will open up a window looking for the mpx.
Any way to avoid that?
Also same seems to be true for frx files. REPRORT FORM (lc_reportname) will
look on the disk and not inside the app where the report is located.

specifying format in SQL
Hello and thanks in advance for the help.
How do you specify the format of a field in and SQL query?
Example:
I have a field called OPEN_BAL which is N (9,2). All values are > 0.
I have another field called TRAN_TYPE which is C(1) and can have the value
'D' or 'C'
For reporting purposes I need the 'C' types to subtract so I have a query:
SELECT IIF(TRAN_TYPE = 'C', OPEN_BAL * -1, OPEN_BAL) AS OPEN_BAL....
This works fine except that the resulting field size in the query output is
9,2. If OPEN_BAL happens to be > 100,000.00 (example 123,456.78) the value
will be -123,456.7.
I need to tell the query to have the resulting field be N (10,2) so that it
can accomodate the possible 6 digit number without losing a digit. Can
someone tell me what I have to do to make this happen?
Thanks,

array[2,1] vs array[2] gotcha
It turns out INSERT INTO <alias> FROM ARRAY <array> can insert more than 1
record. This is not documented and appears to be controlled by whether the
array is dimensioned with 2D syntax or not.
I'm sure it's old news but it had me scratching my head for a few minutes,
thinking someone else's code was wrong. Then realising it was in fact
working but I couldn't see why (he was selecting a field to an array so the
DIMENSION clue wasn't visible.)
CREATE CURSOR test (test C(10))
DIMENSION foo[2]
foo[1]='record1'
foo[2]='record2'
?foo[1]
?foo[2]
* this inserts 'record1' only
INSERT INTO test FROM ARRAY foo
DIMENSION foo[2,1]
?foo[1]
?foo[2]
* this inserts both records
INSERT INTO test FROM ARRAY foo

grid.column.textbox.valid() could lock focus

Grid has one column. Column1.currentcontrolset is a textbox.
Code in grid.column1.textbox.valid():

FPW2.6a @...SAY won't update when I want it to
I've mentioned this before but this time it's the subject and it's really
annoying me.
I have a progress bar / thermometer drawn in nice old fashioned @...SAY and
it will *NOT* update the screen when I want it to.
Pseudocode looks like this
**************************
FOR x=1 TO lots
* do stuff
* update progress bar
NEXT x
@...SAY 'Finishing off'
SELECT <cursor>
DELETE <expression that takes a while>
SELECT <query that takes a while>
**************************
What is so annoying is that the screen sits there showing "processing
(lots-1) of lots" and then 'Finishing off' will be printed on the screen
AFTER the DELETE command has finished.
I have put 100 SHOW GETS, 100 @...SAYs interspersed with 100 SHOW WINDOW ...
REFRESH in between "@...SAY 'Finishing off'" and the "SELECT <cursor>" and
it makes no difference.
The similar thing I've come across before is in a screen by the screen
designer and 2 SHOW GETS seems to work for that.
Is there any way I can make it work how I want?

Slow screen repainting
Hi,
There are numerous situations throughout our VFP9 application where
repainting of the screen is slow.
Examples :
1. a form is shown (eg. a progress-bar form) and then heavy processing
immediately occurs (such as retrieving data from SQLServer). A grey block
is shown on the screen where the form is, the form is eventually painted
some time later when Foxpro is not so busy.
2. a form is closed and then heavy processing occurs. A grey block is
shown where the form used to be and the underlying screen area is not
repainted until later.
The forms are created via createobject() and then displayed using
"oform.show", rather than "do form".
I have tried "oform.refresh" after the "oform.show" but this doesn't help.
I don't remember having this problem back in VFP 6; the issue has existed in
all subsequent versions of Foxpro.
Is there any VFP setting, or WinAPI call, that will force the screen to
repainted immediately? Other suggestions?
Thanks.

[OT] User-Defined string Functions Transact-SQL
Ladies and Gentlemen,
I am pleased to offer, free of charge, the following string functions
Transact-SQL:
AT(): Returns the beginning numeric position of the nth occurrence of a
character expression within another character expression, counting from the
leftmost character.
RAT(): Returns the numeric position of the last (rightmost) occurrence of a
character string within another character string.
OCCURS(): Returns the number of times a character expression occurs within
another character expression (including overlaps).
OCCURS2(): Returns the number of times a character expression occurs within
another character expression (excluding overlaps).
PADL(): Returns a string from an expression, padded with spaces or
characters to a specified length on the left side.
PADR(): Returns a string from an expression, padded with spaces or
characters to a specified length on the right side.
PADC(): Returns a string from an expression, padded with spaces or
characters to a specified length on the both sides.
CHRTRAN(): Replaces each character in a character expression that matches a
character in a second character expression with the corresponding character
in a third character expression.
STRTRAN(): Searches a character expression for occurrences of a second
character expression, and then replaces each occurrence with a third
character expression. Unlike a built-in function Replace, STRTRAN has three
additional parameters.
STRFILTER(): Removes all characters from a string except those specified.
GETWORDCOUNT(): Counts the words in a string.
GETWORDNUM(): Returns a specified word from a string.
PROPER(): Returns from a character expression a string capitalized as
appropriate for proper names.
RCHARINDEX(): Similar to the Transact-SQL function Charindex, with a Right
search.
ARABTOROMAN(): Returns the character Roman numeral equivalent of a specified
numeric expression (from 1 to 3999).
ROMANTOARAB(): Returns the number equivalent of a specified character Roman
numeral expression (from I to MMMCMXCIX).
AT, PADL, PADR, CHRTRAN, PROPER: Similar to the Oracle functions PL/SQL
INSTR, LPAD, RPAD, TRANSLATE, INITCAP.
More than 4000 people have already downloaded my functions. I hope you will
find them useful as well.

but to no avail so I tried using COMMAND=SET MACKEY TO.
That is when I found an unfortunate side effect:
If I use a COMMAND= in the config.fpw of a standalone .exe, it runs that
command and immediately exits rather than running my application.
I'm guessing a standalone .exe starts up Foxpro from the .esl then has
something like a DO <topprog> where topprog is the top program in the
project.
Any other ideas why this effect is seen?
Or how to suppress the macro dialogue from the config? If it's not possible
I'll just put the command in all the applications' top level program.

Mouseover Problem in Windows XP ..
I am working on an application containing some old fashioned code involving
input through say/get which is not compatible with windows XP and windows
2003.
I want to convert this code in a way that it
1: does not causes 'the mousever problem', and
2: supports Windows XP themes.
My biggest worry is how to convert the code defined as
1: a Windows is created and then numerous say/get commands follow.
2: some menu pads - to be converted to command buttons - follow to initiate
the action.
This sort of code is placed in some over a dozen places in the
application - which uses accpac pro framework -. How can I convert such code
to use a Form and command buttons.
Please advise .. one way of doing this is to have a generic class and
populate it at run time but am not sure how am I going to do it. Tag: Define a Window with Custom Color ? Tag: 214675
Rick Strahl at LA Fox August 9
Rick Strahl is our distinguished speaker this month at LA Fox. He'll be
speaking on Integrating Internet Electronic Payment Processing into Web
Applications.
"This session will guide you through the maze of choices for collecting
payments from your customers online. We'll start by discussing the
business end and understanding of how gateway services, merchant
providers interact and how you can get your payments processed over the
Internet. You'll see the architecture and different approaches from
several common providers including Authorize.NET, Verisign PayFlow,
LinkPoint and AccessPoint as well as Paypal. Then we'll demonstrate and
differentiate the various vendor APIs and provide a common framework of
classes for managing multiple providers efficiently in your
applications. Finally we'll put it all together in a demo application
that demonstrates the credit card processing for multiple providers
managed in both an Web Connection front end application and a Desktop
application."
Come see why Rick is one of our most popular speakers! For further
details or directions, please see our UG web site at http://www.lafox.org.
See you there!

Have all Fox versions since 2.6, EXCEPT VFP 8.0. Should I get 8?
Until last night, I had everything up to and including 7.0. I have been
investigating getting 8.0 and 9.0, maybe getting some kind of MSDN
subscription or an ISV arrangement. I got lucky at a Fox user group last
night and won the raffle and got a copy of VFP 9.0 (on a DVD with 7.0)
and some other MSDN stuff from March 2005.
What I know about VFP 8.0 and 9.0 is pretty much what I've picked up
just going to various VFP user group meetings and a few presentations by
VFP gurus (Drew Speedie among them). Virtually all of these meetings
have presentations by very knowledgeable VFP people, however, my
knowledge is necessarily spotty.
I'm wondering if and how much I'll miss not having 8.0. I'm looking for
FoxPro work. I've heard that most of the major changes in VFP in a long
time came in version 8.0. Does 9.0 have everything I need to get up to
speed? Or does 8.0 have examples/samples, etc. that I won't find on that
MSDN DVD (Disc 2488.2, March 2005)? Thanks!

PS: I just went to the Universal Thread and looked for the Fox chat area
and couldn't find it. Did they do away with that? Tag: Define a Window with Custom Color ? Tag: 214651
Special Characters Set
Hello all,
Working with foxpro for DOS, I can insert into a program a special character
such as a <smily face>. If I do open that program into visual foxpro
(windows) what I see is a totally different character.
If there's something to do to set the character set in windows so when I do
open the program in vfp to see the same <smily face> what would that be?
Thank you all Tag: Define a Window with Custom Color ? Tag: 214640
close application from windows 'X' button
I wrote a simple application in Visual Foxpro 8 for the pourpose of
viewing/exporting firewall logs.
When I close the application through the Windows X button (next to Minimize
and Maximize) I get the message "Cannot quit Visual Foxpro".
I have an Exit command in my file menu and I set that to the command CLEAR
EVENTS and this works.
If I put ON SHUTDOWN CLEAR EVENTS in my main program and then click the
Windows X button, the program seems to go into an infinite loop and the only
way to close it is to kill the process.
Thanks in advance
