    - Copying Files Hi Everyone! I am trying to copy a shortcut file from a directory on my network to the desktop of a users computer. The problem I am having is that under Windows 2000 a users desktop directory is under the directory Documents and Settings. When I try to get FoxPro to copy to c:\documents and settings\kevin\desktop\ I keep getting invalid directory or path errors. Anyone have any ideas on how to copy to this directory? Also I can't string a path name together. Example : k = kevin path = 'c:\documents and settings\'+'k'+'\desktop\ copy file k:\test\sbtest.lnk to path - This will not work eithier Thanks Tag: File size Tag: 180787

    - UNC problem I have an application that is located on a server LIVE in a directory MYAPP. All of the users will login and map the S: drive to \\LIVE\MYAPP. All of the application files and subdirectories are under this main directory. The application DOES NOT use any UNC paths to find files. The application will always look under the S: drive for files and directories. I wanted to create a test login for this application. I copied the entire application along with the data files to another share (TESTAPP) on the LIVE server. The test login will map the S: drive to \\LIVE\TESTAPP. When the test login is initializing variables, it looks for a "Variable save" (.mem) file to load the variables and values. This .mem file DOES not exist on the test environment, but does exists on the live application. So stepping through the application on the test login, the application set a variable equal to the mem file name. gf_memfile = "S:\MEMFILE\AMEMFILE.MEM". The application then tries to verify the file exists with the FILE() command. It returns .t. even though the file does not exist! The value of gf_memfile remains equal to "S:\MEMFILE\AMEMFILE.MEM". The next statement is a RESTORE FROM command that executes without an error. The gf_memfile variable gets changed to \\LIVE\MYAPP\MEMFILE\AMEMFILE.MEM!!!! Why is that? Where does it get the UNC from? I don't believe this is a Foxpro problem, but rather an OS problem, but I can't be sure. Any ideas? <snip> ..... gf_adrive = 'S:\' gf_memfile = gf_adrive+ "MEMFILE\AMEMFILE.MEM" IF FILE(gf_memfile) && does not exist, but this returns true RESTORE FROM (gf_memfile) && this statement changes the gf_memfile && to a UNC pointing to the live application! ENDIF ..... </snip> HELP!!! Tag: File size Tag: 180776

    - VFP to VB6 Hi I'd a software written in Visual Foxpro 6 and now in the process of converting the source codes into VB 6. I made use of lots of subclassed controls in my software, like embedding a Checkbox, Command Button, Image or Combo Box into some columns of a Data Grid. Is there a way to realize these functions in VB 6 without buying other 3rd-party OCX controls ? Thanks a lot in advance. Tag: File size Tag: 180771

    - Data Navigation Hi I have been a Visual Foxpro programmer for a few years and now looking for a way to convert those VFP written system into VB6. I have some degree of knowledge in ADO as I did write some Web-based database applications in ASP using ADO as a data access interface. I faced some difficulties in designing a Data Navigation Interface in VB6 coz I can't directly retrieve and bind a million of records into data-bound controls. In VFP 6, I simply used the following syntax to open a table and then directly set the RECORDSOURCE of control to the STUDENT will do, need not bother too much about the criteria in the retrieval of records. A simple Data Navigation Interface with searching features is then easily created in VFP. USE STUDENT IN 0 INDEX STUDENT SHARED In VB6, I need to think of lots of data retrieval criteria. If I used the following ADO syntax to retrieve the STUDENT data will take me 10 minutes for the whole process and might cause system hanging as well. SET rsA = cnA.Execute "SELECT * FROM STUDENT" In such scenario, the data is then broken down into smaller parts by putting a WHERE clause as below. SET rsA = cnA.Execute "SELECT * FROM STUDENT WHERE YEAR_ENROL = 2000" The Data Navigation Interface will only have the recordset of those students enrolled in the year of 2000. What if I want to search for a student by name "LESLIE WILSON" who actually enrolled in 2001? Of course, the rsA.Find syntax is not applicable in locating this student. In this case, I shall use rsA.open "SELECT * FROM PATIENT WHERE NAME = 'LESLIE WILSON'" However, by using this syntax, the Data Navigation Interface will then only have this student record. I found this is not a nice method. In VFP 6, I don't need to bother so much by using SEEK. What's the proper way of handling this issue in VB using ADO ? Thanks a lot. Tag: File size Tag: 180770

    - Reports produce different results every time I have a client with a very large database. Some of the tables has about half a million or more records in them. When I run a report using any of tables, I get different results on every workstation. It is also different on the same workstation if I run it multiple times. If I run it on the server, it is fine. Write caching has been turned off on all workstations. The server runs Windows NT 2000 and all the workstations have different versions of windows on them. Is there any other type of caching that needs to be turned off or has anyone else experienced this problem ? TIA Sujata Tag: File size Tag: 180747

    - XML to single or multiple cursor(s) I have a project where I have to link our application to QuickBooks for updating records in either application or inserting transactions in to QB. US version of QB SDK had a foundation class and XML options and I used FC, which had simplified my task but Australian version only supports XML. I need to be able to create single and/or multiple cursors depending on the XML dataset so that I can manipulate data easily in my application. I experimented with the response xml file and find out if I only have 1 level of tags XMLTOCURSOR nicely creates a cursor that corresponds to the xml structure except the variable types (eg. a datetime field was created as a character field). Eg. A response xml file from QB <?xml version="1.0" ?> <QBXML> <QBXMLMsgsRs> <TaxCodeQueryRs requestID="1" statusCode="0" statusSeverity="Info" statusMessage="Status OK"> <TaxCodeRet> <ListID>20000-1046324474</ListID> <TimeCreated>2003-02-27T16:41:14+10:00</TimeCreated> <TimeModified>2003-02-27T16:44:08+10:00</TimeModified> <EditSequence>1046324648</EditSequence> <Name>CAF</Name> <IsActive>true</IsActive> <Desc>Cap. Acq. - GST Free</Desc> <Tax1Rate>0.00000</Tax1Rate> <Tax2Rate>0.00000</Tax2Rate> <IsTax1Exempt>false</IsTax1Exempt> <IsTax2Exempt>false</IsTax2Exempt> <IsPiggybackRate>false</IsPiggybackRate> <IsECVatCode>false</IsECVatCode> <TaxType>5</TaxType> </TaxCodeRet> <TaxCodeRet> <ListID>D0000-1046324474</ListID> <TimeCreated>2003-02-27T16:41:14+10:00</TimeCreated> <TimeModified>2003-02-27T16:44:08+10:00</TimeModified> <EditSequence>1046324648</EditSequence> <Name>NCI</Name> <IsActive>true</IsActive> <Desc>Non-Cap. Acq. - for making Input Taxed Supplies</Desc> <Tax1Rate>0.00000</Tax1Rate> <Tax2Rate>0.00000</Tax2Rate> <IsTax1Exempt>false</IsTax1Exempt> <IsTax2Exempt>false</IsTax2Exempt> <IsPiggybackRate>false</IsPiggybackRate> <IsECVatCode>false</IsECVatCode> <TaxType>3</TaxType> </TaxCodeRet> </TaxCodeQueryRs> </QBXMLMsgsRs> </QBXML If I use XMLTOCURSOR function without any modification I will get either one field or as many as the number of requests in the returned XML file (I can send multiple queries to QB in one XML message and therefore get a multiple response in one XML returned message) with everything squashed in with out their tags. Now if I remove <QBXMLMsgsRs> and <TaxCodeQueryRs .....> lines and also corresponding end tag lines then use XMLTOCURSOR function it will give me a cursor with field names and properties as ListID (char 16), TimeCreated (char 25), }these two is datetime field in the original XML response file TimeModified (char 25), } EditSequence (num 10), Name (char 3), IsActive (logical), Desc (char 47), Tax1Rate (num 8), Tax2Rate (num 7), IsTax1Exempt (logical), IsTax2Exempt (logical), IsPiggybackRate (logical), IsECVatCode (logical), TaxType (num 1) I can then work with this table to get what I want. This is fine if I only deal with one request/response, but majority of response(s) have more complex structure. Is there a better way to deal with response XML files? I saw in VFP8 new features that there is XMLAdaptor class that can accept internal or external schemas and create single or multiple cursors but we have some stability issues running our application in VFP 8 and therefore not ready yet to go up to VFP8. I need to find a solution within VFP7 capabilities. Cheers Mehmet Tag: File size Tag: 180736

    - resizable frames within a form Hi, I need to create 3 or 4 frames(windows/sections/divisions) within a form that the user can adjust in an easy way. think about the 2 or three frames we usually have in Outlook or Outlook Express... the user just drag the frame borders with the mouse and the other frames ar also automatically adjusted right now the only way I have found to solve this is using one Formset with several forms and puting some code in the resize event of the forms to adjust the others, however there is a problem: the only visual container of the forms is _screen, it seems there is no way to put the forms inside a single form object that contains them so I can instantiate the same form with it´s internal adjustable frames and allow the user to look at them as many software allows: Mosaic or Cascade I know this should be possible becaus e I have seen an application developed this way (I guess in Microsoft C++), but I am not sure what controls are they using I would appreciate any advice or if somebody knows where can I download a similar sample from the net Thanks and Best regards Tag: File size Tag: 180722

    - Are there any drawbacks if I use a lot of connection to SQL Server (and not sharing them)? Hi all, Most of the connections I used in my apps are occupied by one SQL query (VFP's remote view). However, in a case where I need atomic transaction, I would share a connection and perform table insertion/update inside SQL's BEGIN TRANSACTION and SQLCOMMIT pair. Question: Are there any drawbacks if I use a lot of connection to SQL Server (and not sharing them)? Overriding the connection handle in VFP's remote views require coding in the form's Init event. If the drawbacks are acceptable, I'd rather bind the RVs in the DE than open it programmatically one by one. Please note that what I mean a lot is about 10 to 25 connection (remote view) in each form. TIA, Willianto Tag: File size Tag: 180689

    - VFP6 data type mismatch on selecting table an VFP6 application that has been running for a number of years, quite happily, which I am now doing further development on has suddenly started to come up with the error "data type mismatch" when I try to select a cursor that I am scanning through - either within the scan or at the endscan stage. I suspend the program then immediately click resume and it selects the cursor and carries on quite happily - right through to the end of the scan. I can't see any fields that could be suspect, they are all character and just a simple select with no function calls. It happily starts the scan. This is totally doing my head in.

This is what I want to do: I have a number of 81/2 X 11 forms (for example, export documents) that I want to generate from my Foxpro program. I have done this in Delphi by overlaying a .wmf on a report file and printing them both. This method generates a very professional looking form and is very useful in placing and aligning the data fields. However, because of the way VFP reports are generated (Header/Body/Footer/)inserting a full page graphic and overlaying the data fields seems impossible.

Double click a control that has a resonably long chunk of method code in it. Select that method - the scroll bar in the edit window must be displayed. Click and drag the scroll bar a bit and DON'T RELEASE THE MOUSE. Keep the mouse button down, but keep the mouse still. In my system, after about 6 seconds, all of the windows in the VFP IDE go blank and stay blank until the mouse button is released. Thankfully the same thing does not happen in a VFP app at runtime.

    - Put a "date" date into a string and print in the report! Hi All, I have created a grid window and the data have been stored in a cursor. Also, two text fields (datatype: Date, Name of Text Fields: Text1,Text2) have been added in order to list the selected area only in the grid window. I'm now having a little troubles of how to print the selected data in the report. I want to list a sentence with "Text1" and "Text2" data ("date" datatype) in two text fields to the report like: filter_print='The date from'+allt(thisform.text1.value)+' to '+allt(thisform.text2.value) *!* This command is written in "Print" and "Preview" button. After I compile and execute the program, an error message jumps out and said "Operator and Operand do not match!" (It may not exactly the message like this!)

What is going on and how can I stop this. Versions prior to VFP8 did not do this. Thanks Tim Cairns Tag: File size Tag: 180484

    - Eltron Programming Language/Foxpro 8.0 I'm interested in printing bar codes on Zebra LP2844 barcode printer. Can I access the Eltron Programming Language (EPL2) via Foxpro 8.0? Do I still need to buy a barcode font package or is this included? Thanks in advance. John. Tag: File size Tag: 180478

    - Never before seen error in VFP6 Report Writer During the past week I am repeatedly getting a fatal exception while designing reports (with the VFP 6 report writer.) I'm running on XP and the error message provides no useful info - just shuts VFP down. I am trying to determine if the problem is unique to my PC or if it might be related to a recent XP update... Has anyone else seen this? Tag: File size Tag: 180437

    - Printing memory and OT: Tracker PDF-Xchange Hi all, I've had memory issues nagging me for some time now on printing large volumes of VFP reports. What I've got is a billing program that spins through a few thousand customers and prints one or two copies of their bills--always one in PDF format the other (printed in about 2/3 of the cases) a postscript file. These bills consist of usually between three and six different formats (one frx each) with occassional bills having ten or even 15 different formats. So in the course of an entire run, it will probably run 15-25,000 REPORT FORM commands. As it runs, the MEM usage (from the Task Manager's Performance tab) continues to climb. However, if I do all the other processing, skipping the printing portions, the MEM usage change is negligible. My guess is the issue is more in printing when drivers are needed as we used to report to ASCII from frx's and never had these problems. I think I've got the most up-to-date drivers installed (Win2K Pro machine, HP5 printer/Acrobat 6.0 writer) and the app is currently running under VFP7. Upgrading it to V8 is a possibility, but in some short tests this morning, I've been seeing similar memory problems. Does anyone know of other places I might want to look or am I pretty much stuck trying to keep drivers as current as possible and keep setting stop-points and rebooting? Somewhat related: has anyone used Tracker Software's PDF-Xchange for printing w/ VFP. We're considering it as a replacement for Adobe's driver. The reviews I've found are few, but positive. I'm concerned mainly with accuracy, performance, then file size (though 1 and 3 so far sound good). TIA, John Tag: File size Tag: 180431

    - Subquery returned more than one record VFP8 SET ENGINEBEHAVIOR 70 or 80, doesn't matter. The below query (the below is a portion of the query, the entire query has some joins, etc.) has worked in previous versions of VFP. I'm now getting the error "Subquery returned more than one record" SELECT AcctCode,Dept,Revenue,Income ; FROM JobCost ; WHERE Dept=(SELECT Dept FROM ValidDepts WHERE Dept="4") ; INTO CURSOR TempCost The subquery does return more than one record, but it worked in the past. Even if I force the subquery to return one DISTINCT record, I still get the error. Help anyone. Thanks in advance Tim Cairns Tag: File size Tag: 180422

Hi Taha:

Try using the ADIR() function like this:

? ADIR(atest,"Test.doc")
? atest(1,2)

I hope this helps.
