    - Mailmerge Wolfgang, Thanks for your kind response. I changed DFC() and got past the error but I got a message from WORD: Error in mailmergeword8(69): OLE IDispatch exception code 0 from Microsoft Word: Word was unable to open the data source. I am wondering if the message prior (Unable to find FoxPro File ODBCDriver) is the cause? I have tried putting the ODBC drivers I could find in the Windows and Windows32 folders but it didn't help. Do you know the proper name of the driver and where it should be located? I found this code in mailmergeword8 and it seems to be wanting the driver. Why would it be needing the ODBC driver and connection string when the data source is a local view? *- attach data file oDoc.MailMerge.OpenDataSource(THIS.cDataSrc,0,0,0,0,0,"","",0,"","",m.cODBCSource,; THIS.csqlstmt, THIS.csqlstmt2) Tag: Foxpro 6 Tutorial Tag: 189146

    - Trying to force Outlook msg window to foreground I have an e-mail address field on a form whose right-click event will open up a new Outlook message to that recipient. The automation part of it works like a charm. However, there are times when the new Untitled message window will flash in the taskbar and not be the foreground window and other times when the new message will indeed get the foreground (which is the desired result). Using both the mail item's Display() and Activate() methods produces the same results. Is there a way to make sure that the new message window always hits the foreground and has focus? I'm assuming that the WinAPI has to come into play for this.. Jon Tag: Foxpro 6 Tutorial Tag: 189125

    - OLE-Drag'nDrop in COM-Object Hello In my application I use OLE-Drag&Drop. It's working ok. But one part of my app ist a COM-Object, also written in VFP8, using the same classes as the rest of the app. This COM-Object shows controls in a top-level-form. In this form OLE-Drag&Drop doesn't work. It's not starting, no matter, if I let VFP do the work (OLDEDragMode = 1 (Automatic)) or if I start it myself with OLEDrag (.t.) in MouseDown-Event. As soon, as I press the left mouse button, the control is in editing mode, means if I move the mouse with left button pressed, I mark text under the mouse. It's not entering the OLEDrag&Drop-mode. Some ideas? I've written a litte test application, which shows my problem. You can download it from www.ksoft.ch/download/oletest.zip. It's only 17k. Unzip it and build an exe in order to register the COM-Class. If you start the exe, you will see 2 Forms. Both are the same top-level-form, but one is opened from within the exe using do form, the other is shown from a COM-Object. In the form opened with do from OLEDrag&Drop is working, in the other form it is not. Funny, isn't it? Thank's a lot for every help I can get.

    - Moving from VFP7/SP1 to VFP8/SP1 Hi all! I have a view which works just fine in VFP7. But VFP8 complains "View definition has been changed". The view is of the type; Select ... join ... join ... where &lcWhereExpr1 union all Select ... join ... join ... where &lcWhereExpr2 My app has many views of this very flexible type and all except one works fine i VFP8 too. The view is added to a form´s DE with no data on load. The view´s requery command is in a page's activate. If I close and open the view before the requery it works in VFP8 too but then there occures other undesired things. Enginbehavior is set to 70. What´s this about? Is there somebody who has experienced something similar? I want a solution without having to close and reopen teh view. Any help would be very apprecitated.

    - Windows form design guide - where? Isn't there a document (I think by Microsoft) that discusses guidelines to be followed when designing forms? Some sort of windows design guidelines? We have a person that likes to change the default colors of controls, and he sometimes comes up with some nasty color combinations. I believe that default colors should be left alone, and the document I'm looking for discusses the rationale behind this a well as other standards to follow when designing forms.

    - Foxpro and Open Files and Backup and Win 2000 Server Hello - I have a client who has problems with backup because files from my VFP application remain open even after users exit the application. He has made sure that all workstations have exited my application and yet the server still shows that files are open. He is blaming my application. I say it is the responsibility of the server or workstation to properly close out files when users exit my application. I have noticed that when a workstation is accidentally reset or when it freezes some servers will keep files open (like phantom files). Why doesn't the server close these files? I have heard there is a setting in Win 2000 that may be applied so that if a workstation is reset or logs off - all related files are closed. This specific client has Win 2000 server sp4 and win 2000 workstations. All ideas appreciated. Thanks, Mike Tag: Foxpro 6 Tutorial Tag: 189061

    - Microsoft Access and Remote Access Views Hello - I'm trying to read an Access database into VFP so that I can convert it to VFP. I start by specifying the connection as Microsoft Access and enter the database name. I'm leaving the UserID and Password blank. From the project manager I then click the New button for a new remote view and select the connection I created. It then asks me to select a database name. I'm not sure why it asks me this since I already specified the database name in the connection.

    - Are Report Commands Modal? Thanks in advance for any replies. Is the REPORT command modal when it is issued without NOWAIT modal? What I mean is if I have the following code: 1. SELECT CLIENTS 2. SCAN 3. SELECT * FROM INVOICES WHERE CLIENTNUM = CLIENTS.CLIENTNUM INTO CURSOR CLIENTINVOICES 4. SELECT CLIENTINVOICES 5. REPORT FORM INVOICEREPORT TO PRINTER NOCONSOLE 6. SELECT CLIENTS 7. ENDSCAN Does the report finish processing before line 6 is executed? This seems to me to be a basic and obvious question but I have some code that is essentially the same as the code above and sometimes the first report is failing with a "Variable Not Found" error for a variable that is in the query. The other reports are printing correctly. Previously I had this code being called from a form with a private data session and the error occurred every time. I was advised to change the form to use the default data session. At first I thought this had solved the problem but what I've discovered is that the problem still occurs but only about 1 in 10 times instead of every time. Also the code is contained in a PRG that is being called from a menu. When I ran the code with the debugger on it never failed. Also when I ran the code from a button on the form instead of from a menu on the form it didn't fail. If anyone has any clues as to what is going on here I'd appreciate hearing about it. Thanks, Jeff Tag: Foxpro 6 Tutorial Tag: 189001

    - 1a = eof??? Yesterday I have a big problem with a table. The table has 200000 records and a big size 144 Mb. While I was searching in the table (free table) it hang the system a lot of times. At first I think the table was broken and searching with an hexadecimal editor i found (sorprised) a lot of 1a marks (eof mark). Then doing my research i noticed that what is broken was the index but the cdx was not corrupted. I did: USE MYTABLE BROWSE i browse perfectly normal then i set SET ORDER TO MYINDEX and VFP was not responding and I have to press CTRL+ALT+DEL finally I reindex the table and the system started to work. The question is, 1a=eof, because then i open other tables (no more than 10 records) and i found 1a marks at the beginning of the table (it belong to a dbc). What is going on?? Anybody knows???

    - Row Highlighting using a container Object FoxPro allows you to Display multiple rows per record in a grid control by replacing the default text box control with a container object in a one-column grid. The container class I set up contains text boxes with the appropriate data. However I lose the â??the current row highlightâ?? effect. I tried setting â??allowCellSelectionâ?? to .f.., but this also had no effect. I also tried the pre VFP8 method of using â??.SetAll("DynamicBackColor"â?? to emulate row highlighting; with no success. Does anyone have any workarounds to emulate this highlighting feature Thanks Chri Tag: Foxpro 6 Tutorial Tag: 188963

    - Slow view requery I have a parameterized view into a large MySQL table. When I requery the view, control is immediately returned to the command window. The record count for the view slowly increases at the rate of about 200 records a second. Bandwidth consumption is minimal, cpu is minimal. If I check the box the server is running on, I find that cpu on that box is also at a minumum. This looks like something is throttling the query, because everything is running at an idle. How can I: 1) Have control not return until the view is done being requeried 2) Have the system use max cpu/bandwidth instead of just idling along, so that I can get my results faster?

Hi All,
I am the very beginner of Foxpro. Currently, I have Foxpro 6.0 installed in my computer(windows ME 2000). I would
be very appreciated if some one can tell me the websites which contain the Foxpro 6 Tutorial. Have a nice weekend!

Best Regards

Hi Richard,

Welcome to Visual FoxPro!

The Help which comes with VFP is always a great place to start. Another free
online resource is at http://www.free-ed.net/fr03/lfc/030101/129/default.asp
.

You'll learn a lot by reading here. Other resources are the UniversalThread
(www.universalthread.com, basic membership is free), and the ProFox listserv
(http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech ProFoxTech has the OT chit
chat filtered out).

Finally, VFP8 is the current version. Intellisense has been added that will
make it much much easier for you to learn VFP. However, it's not supported
for development on Windows ME. That doesn't mean that it won't install
though. If you're serious about development you'll be better off with
Windows XP (Home or Pro).
