    - Pass parm to form, form is "main" in project - doesn't work! I have a simple form that receives two parameters in form.init. I run form with parameters from within VFP, it works. I put form in project, set form as "main", compile into exe. I run the exe, with the same parameters. I get "no parameter statement is found". I'm thinking that you can't do this, anyone else confirm or comment? Tag: Foxpro 2.6w under XP database access issues Tag: 190780

    - How to remove code page warning on tables from fox 2.6? I use vfp8 and winxp. On a regular basis I have to append records from a fox 2.6 table to a table in a vfp8 database. The code below works, but it gives me two windows the user have to deal with. A 'table update warning' window and a 'select code page' window. As far as I gather from previous postings the first window no one knows how to get rid of, but what about the second? Sincerely, Jan Nordgreen The code: * oapp.cdatfolpat is the folder for the database and cfilepath is the fox 2.6 table caux = oapp.cdatfolpat + 'newathlt.dbf' COPY FILE (cfilepath) TO (caux) IF INDBC('newathlt', 'TABLE') then REMOVE TABLE 'newathlt' endif ADD TABLE 'newathlt' * append the new records to the sdstud.dbf table USE newathlt IN 0 EXCLUSIVE SELECT sdstud INSERT INTO sdstud (st_house, st_sex, st_studid, st_class, st_name) ; SELECT st_house, st_sex, st_studid, st_class, st_name FROM newathlt Tag: Foxpro 2.6w under XP database access issues Tag: 190777

    - Need HELP...! I have problem with formset. Hi, my problem is that i have a program and i want that the first windows to be in a formset. In this formset i've got my main windows. But i don't know why my windows appears only if i set it to 'As top level form'. But the fact is that i don't want this windows in 'As top level form' cause i'm not abble to open another windows over. frmLoading : As top level form frmSetMain --> frmMain : In top level form --> frmAccess : As top level form --> frmSetOther --> frmOther : In top level form --> frmForm2 : As top level form --> frmForm3 : As top level form From my program (program.prg) i call frmSetMain and frmSetMain open frmMain. If i set frmMain to "As top level form" it's work but when i load my frmAccess windows (to type an access code to acces my form) the windows appears in back of the frmMain windows. And if i set frmMain to "In Top Level form" the windows is loading but everything is close and i return to foxpro windows. I'm going to be crazy.... I hope that you will understand my problem..(sorry for my bad english). thanks maxime Tag: Foxpro 2.6w under XP database access issues Tag: 190774

    - Foxprow I have several old programs running on Foxprow alongside some new ones developed in VFP6. I use the patch so that Foxprow runs on faster machines. My query is this. My machine is getting old and runs at 450 mz using Windows 98. If I upgrade to a new machine using Windows XP and running at a much faster speed, is there a speed limit at which the Foxprow patch stops being effective ? Will Windows XP run old foxprow programs ? Thanks. -- Tim Hobson Tag: Foxpro 2.6w under XP database access issues Tag: 190771

    - Union problem in view I use vfp8 and winxp. This parametric view I have used as a recordsource for a list. CREATE VIEW v_Sdstud AS ; SELECT ; sdstud.st_name AS Athletes, ; sdstud.st_studid ; FROM ; Sdstud ; WHERE ; sdstud.st_house = ?choicehouse ; AND sdstud.st_sex = ?choicesex ; AND sdstud.st_athlete = .T. ; AND (Sdstud.st_class = ?choiceclass OR upper(?choiceclass) = 'OPEN') ; order by ; sdstud.st_name It works fine. When I run the form, the list is filled the way it should with name of students. Now, on the top of the list of students I would like to add the record '(No athlete)'. I have tried this: CREATE VIEW v_Sdstud AS ; SELECT ; sdstud.st_name as Athletes, ; sdstud.st_studid ; FROM ; Sdstud ; WHERE ; sdstud.st_house = ?choicehouse ; AND sdstud.st_sex = ?choicesex ; AND sdstud.st_athlete = .T. ; AND (Sdstud.st_class = ?choiceclass OR upper(?choiceclass) = 'OPEN') ; union ; SELECT ; '(No athlete)' as Athletes, ; 0 as st_studid ; from sdstud ; order by ; 1 When I browse the query from the data environment and feed it the parameters it works fine. However, when the form is running it gives me an empty list. What am I doing wrong? Is there a better way of doing this?

    - file is in use and used('tablename') I use vfp8 and winxp. When I run this code something strange happens. IF USED('sdstud') then USE IN 'sdstud' endif USE sdstud IN 0 exclusive && line 47 In line 47 I get 'file is in use' error message. How come, when I closed it in the instructions above line 47?

    - Triggers Hi Q1. I have a small problem, actually I am looking for something we use in SQL server Inserted.CustName or Deleted.CustNam Q2. I have a table A. I have some triggers in this to update table I am flocking table A before updation. Do I need to flock table B in the trigger ? If I flock table B in the trigger, will the locking and unlocking will happen fo every record ? because my updation is 'update where <condition>' for more that on record. Will it execute the trigger and lock table B for all the record separatly ? That is if the update condition is for 10 records, it will update record in A and execute the trigger then update the 2nd record and execute th trigger etc Mike Tag: Foxpro 2.6w under XP database access issues Tag: 190740

    - Newbie question I am fairly new to programming/foxpro. I am rewriting an existing dos application using vfp 8. The application has the ability to setup new company files. Upon creating these company files, it creates a folder in the application directory (for example if I setup company 54, a folder called "Data54" will be created with all the dbf files in that folder). My question is, how can I make this happen? I want to create a folder for a company to work out of. Any help at all would be much, much appreciated!!

    - Running Fox Exe's from a local network, VFP5.0 vs VFP6 - 8 I have several small office applications written in Foxpro. Years ago I bought some of them up from Foxpro 2.6 & FPW 3.x into the what was then the newest 'Foxpro', 5.x, and then wrote a few more apps. When later on 6.0 had been out for a while I tried to move up to that version. To that point all I had to do when distributing an application was to put the exe, two Dlls, DBFs and a few other files in a directory on the local network protected by the appropriate NT security. Then put an shortcut on the users desktop pointing that exe. With lots of changes in our office responsibilties this is easy to connect new workstations to these apps. With 6.0 that all changed to have to setup the apps on each computer even though the exe and dbfs could be shared on the network. This is what I had to do with VB apps (which is one among other reasons I didn't use VB alot). I tried to putting all the files the 6.0 setup wizard was putting on each computer on the network in the exe's directory but it didn't work. I guess this is because of the files not being registered properly in the setup. I was hoping that Foxpro would just look for these files in that directory first without checking the registry The upshot of all this is that all the apps are still on 5.x . I suppose that I could set up one VFP 6.0 app on each workstation and then as long as the rest of the apps used the same componets they would not require an individual setup. Before I go that route I'm wondering if there is a way to run 6.0 ( or actually I have 7.0 now) the way that I ran the 5.x apps on the network ??

    - Uploading Large files using XMLHTTP Hi All, I am using XMLHTTP object in VFP to upload files using VFP and having the problem of string too long to fit when uploading files more than 16MB. The error occurs when I try to concatenate the FILETOSTR data with the header info. Temporarily I worked around it by using a memo field. But then it gives the same error in the XMLHTTPObject.Send method. Any body knows any workarounds? * This is a pseudo code only x = FILETOSTR(FileToUpload) BuildPostData(x) && Builds the Header information etc XMLHTTPObject.Send(x) If the above cannot be fixed any other fox pro code that may work?

    - VFP email client Hi, I asked recently about accessing port 110 using VFP to be able to parse email in a POP3 account before it was downloaded to a client. I got some great help on the Winsock control which did the job well. Couple of questions: Any ideas how to cleanly disconnect? The POP3 server keeps the connection open for a period of time if I use the Winsock Close() method, and VFP hangs for a similar period of time if I issue a POP3 "QUIT" command. This is just annoying, not important. Now I can access POP3, and can send email in various ways (using BLAT for this, but CDO and wwipstuff are other SMTP based options), I wanted to see if I could write a basic email client using VFP. All works well so far unless I want to reply to an HTML email. In OE or Outlook, you click "Reply" and you can type your reply into what looks like an edit box, but with the original HTML nicely rendered below. Can this be done in VFP? I can display the original HTML using the Web Browser control, but I'm a bit stuck on creating an interactively editable browser object. I'm only doing this as an experiment. It's non-production, but would welcome any help. Neil Tag: Foxpro 2.6w under XP database access issues Tag: 190672

    - Subreport w/ External Foxpro DBF I'm having a problem with a report. I have a problem getting my subreport linked to my main report. I have a primary file used for the main report, and a second (stand alone) file for the subreport. The subreport is not showing any information from the second file. I'm at a loss, and could use some advise. I have included some details below. I have a file that includes multiple fields that are used in the main report: customer name, customer number, job number, company number, and equipment id. I have a second file which is a list of equipment used on a given job: (subreport) job number, company number, equipment id, serial number, model # These files are not joined in the report, I wish to use subreport links to join the two together. The second file will list the detail info for a given piece of equipment and for a given job. I setup the links as follows: ?Pm-Customer_history.ncompany = cs_equip.nCompany ?Pm-Customer_history.nsite_equipid = cs_equip.nsite_equipID ?Pm-Customer_history.njobnumber = cs_equip.njobnumer The selection formula (record) on the subreport was left as it was created by the SubReport Links window. -------------------------------- Thx in advance, Dan Tallent Tag: Foxpro 2.6w under XP database access issues Tag: 190658

    - Unique Identifier for .MNX file I need to grant access to a particular menu option depending on which user has logged in. I am planning to create a DBF file which will contain the menu options that accessible by each userid. Then at the time of running the MPR file, I can modify the SKIP FOR clause if the userid has access to that menu or not To accomplish this task, I need to know if there is a unique identifier in the MNX file that is created by Menu Builder. I want to tie in the userid with the key for MNX file for the purpose of lookup. I browsed the MNX file but I am a little confused about the records in that file. For some reason it has two records for every menu option that I created. Can someone throw some more light on the structure and contents of MNX file and suggest how best I can do what I want to do Thanks a lot.... Subhash.

    - Insert and update function! Hi All I have just created two database files with master and detail relationship. For now I'm getting trouble with writing "insert and save" function. Firstly I used VFP6.0 built in master detail relationship to create a form. It works fine. My first question: Can I get into their built in "Insert" and "Update" function for my little modification purpose Or if not, I wrote "Insert" and "save" by myself. As I clicked them the first time, it works fine. But after click "save" and it jumped back to "insert" mode, the old data were displayed on the screen, instead of creating a new record, or even my code was included "append blank" Now I found that the problems were from "the cursor were still pointed at the last record after I hit "save and insert". What exactly should be the problem of my coding Please help Sam. Tag: Foxpro 2.6w under XP database access issues Tag: 190646

    - VFP and Windows CE OS Just wanting to know if anyone has any knowledge as to whether or not one can run a VFP application on something like an IPAQ using Windows CE as its OS We will be creating a small stand-alone application and we're wondering if we can use VFP for it. The app will have to run on the Windows CE OS Anyone have a clue Thanks... Bullsai Tag: Foxpro 2.6w under XP database access issues Tag: 190564

    - Setting up DCOM impersonation I have an application that is called from the web and it generates pdf documents using printer drivers. My problem seems to be that when the com server runs it is impersonating IUSR which does not have printer drivers available. I have heard that I can overcome the problem if I have the COM server impersonate a particular user. However, this would mean that when the application is distributed every installation would have to manually configure the dcomcnfg settings, I really want to avoid that. I would appreciate some pointers in this area (advice, links to online articles). Thanks. Tag: Foxpro 2.6w under XP database access issues Tag: 190563

I have been testing out using a legacy 2.6w app on XP boxes and have
been encountering "Not A Table/DBF" error messages which are temporary
and incorrect. It will happen when I am using a shared table in 2
different instances of foxpro at the same time. Does anyone have any
knowledge of a work around or fix to this?

Thanks,
Jonathan Kadish

Hi Jonathan

Please let me know the following

1. Where is your data folder residing? On the net or local XP machine
2. What type of user you are? Supervisor or Limited
3. Are you logging on the Machine only or on a Domain Server
4. What is the size of the table that causes the error

Maybe I can be of help if you will provide me more information..

Thanks for responding Lhan,

The database resides on a windows 98 box on a shared local peer to
peer network. The database is about 75 megs and since it is peer to
peer/mapped network drive all users have full access. There is no
domain server. Also there is no problem accessing this data on windows
98/95 boxes only XP and 2000. I am wondering if it has something to do
with NTFS vs FAT drive access?
