    - SBT/Vision Point 10 with VFP 6.0 Anyone out there using SBT/Vision Point 10 in Windows XP, along with Visual FoxPro 6.0 (actually, any version of VFP)? My client has source, and I'm doing extensive revisions to non-Laser printing output, bypassing the Report Generator code and the .FRM/.FRX files, and getting FoxPro "C0000005" error. Researched that on Google, found only one guy who seemed to really know anything about it, and he suggested downloading the latest Service Pack (SP5) which I did. Still, no joy. Wondering if anyone else is doing something similar. Many thanks for your input. Tag: VFP 9 Local Drag and Drop Tag: 225702

    - VFP build version Hi, Is there a way to find what version of VFP I used to build an executable? I'm sure I've seen an (MSDN?) article on it before, but can't seem to find it anywhere. Any help much appreciated. Tag: VFP 9 Local Drag and Drop Tag: 225700

    - VFP 9: Help with sending/receiving XML via FTP Hello, Looking for resources which will help me understand XML via FTP. The same application is used by both the sender and recipient. Here is what I do (sender): Insurance claim is created (single record). The record is converted to XML. The XML file is uploaded to specific FTP directory for the specific insurance company. At the other end (recipient): Recipient checks FTP folder for contents. Recipient is prompted to download the claims. The claims are downloaded and exported to table. Confirmation is returned to sender. I have the concept of how it will work, but I need a good book or suggestions from you on how to actualy deploy the idea. Thanks for the input.

    - Running BAT file via ShellExecute I kick off a BAT file from within my VFP7 app with something like this... lcPath = "C:\MyPath" lcFile = "MyFile.BAT" CD (lcPath) ShellExecute( 0, "open", lcFile, "", "", 2 ) All works OK. However, if lcPath has a value of [\\MyPC\c\MyPath] the ShellExecute doesn't seem to work. SYS(5) + SYS(2003) return the expected value of [\\MyPC\c\MyPath] at that point. FILE(lcPath + "\" + lcFile) returns .t. Any ideas? Brian Tag: VFP 9 Local Drag and Drop Tag: 225684

    - Serial Cash register drawer I posed this issue before and was steered to the microsoft site for using mscomm32 to send output to a serial port. The cash register is on com1 and the drawer opens pressing CTRL G. Can I just save the code below as a program. Call the program at the time the receipt button is pressed and edit the following code to read as follows to work? ComForm.Testcom.CommPort = 1 ComForm.Testcom.Output = 7 ( the appropriate code to send the CTRL G to the serial port?) ComForm.Testcom.Settings = "9600,N,8,1" Do I have to run the setup tool and include the mscommlib for the application to work for my customer also? ***Program code*** PUBLIC ComForm ComForm = CREATEOBJECT('Form') ComForm.AddObject("Testcom","Olecontrol","MSCOMMLib.MSComm") ComForm.Testcom.CommPort = 2 && Use Comm2, The second Serial Port.

    - Detecting an Excel File Hello and thanks in advance for the help. This may be the wrong place for this question but if anyone has any ideas I'd be grateful. I am working with Excel spreadsheets and using the following code to open a spreadsheet: oExcel = CREATEOBJECT("Excel.Application") && Start Excel oExcel.Workbooks.Open(lcSpreadsheet) where lcSpreadsheet contains the name of the spreadsheet file. The problem is that these are uploaded files and sometimes they don't upload Excel files even though they are supposed to. Sometimes this code is executing on my web server which doesn't like Excel file open errors. My question is: 1. Is there a way to detect whether or not a file is an Excel spreadsheet before calling Workbooks.Open? Thank you very much. Jeff Tag: VFP 9 Local Drag and Drop Tag: 225662

    - Update Views problem I use a view to fill a grid. To add an additional row in the grid I provide a button on the form which adds a row in the view, enters some predefiened data and send an update to the view with: =TABLEUPDATE(1,.t.,'view') and put the focus onto the grid. After entering data, closing the form, reopening it again the predefined data are there but the manually entered data are lost! In the grid in every text and combo box I put in the Valid Methods the code: =TABLEUPDATE(1,.t.,'view') The problem occurs only if a new row is added to the grid/view. Please could someone give me an advice how to avoid the data loss. Wolfgang Tag: VFP 9 Local Drag and Drop Tag: 225661

    - PS file generation error after VFP8 upgrade to VFP9 Hi All, After i upgrade from VFP8 to VFP9(with SP1), the Adobe Distiller can not convert the ps file to pdf successfully. The problem is due to the ps files store the printer setting. I have fixed it by checking "Printer Environment" in every report forms, (since all report forms are checked it in VFP8), however, it is too time consuming. Any other methods to solve it? many thanks! Tag: VFP 9 Local Drag and Drop Tag: 225651

    - Keeping Focus in a TextBox I have a textbox at the top of a form and a grid below. I want to stay in the textbox and enter data - hit return and update the grid - and then go right back to the textbox. Don't want to leave it until I click out of it. I use valid to test the data in the textbox and return(.t) just after updating the grid. If not valid I return .f. and tell the user and the focus stays in the textbox. I want it to stay there even if I return .t. Return .t causes focus to go to the next object. I don't want that. When the user is done entering data and updating the grid data then they can click out of the textbox. Using VFP 9. XP Pro. Any Ideas would be very appreciated.

    - Insertion point, active window highlight: not I've got a situation in which the vfp insertion point is not visible and the title bars of active windows are no longer highlighted. This has nothing to do with set cursor or sys(2002), but it *may* be related to the fact that I have a large number of tables open (aprox 110) and some of those tables have a large number of fields (eg 250) with an index tag on about every field. Has anyone else seen this? -Lew Tag: VFP 9 Local Drag and Drop Tag: 225639

    - Build Exe and Project Build What is the difference between running the Build Exe command in a prg and running the third option in the Build Options Dialog box "Win32 executable / COM server (exe)"? According to the documentation it should be the same. I am using foxpro 7 and trying to compile a COM server application. When I use the project build option it works just fine and creates the exe , tlb, and vbr files. When I run the Build Exe command from a program it hangs on the COM registration portion of the build and then errors out saying it can't find my COM events class.

ControlSource: Alias "TABLEA" is not found. If I modified the form, clear grid.column1.controlsource, set grid.column.text1.controlsource="tablea.column", then the form could be loaded without problem. Why? Isn't form.load() fired before grid.column.controlsource looks for its data? -- SoftMedia Technology Co., Ltd.

Unfirtunately, this particular grid has its AllowCellSelection property set to .F. which seems to prevent the Drag and Drop operation from working correctly. When I set the AllowCellSelection property to .T., it works fine. Is there some other property that I am not setting correctly? Does anybody have a workaround that will alow me to Drag and Drop from a textbox in a grid when the AllowCellSelection is set to .F. ? -- Jim D Tag: VFP 9 Local Drag and Drop Tag: 225476

    - How to handle transaction when data sources are differenent? I want information in how to handle transaction when data are in different data sources such as Visual Foxpro dbf and MS SQL Server tables. The environment is very simple just a workstation and server with MS SQL Server. So, there is no other servers like MTS. How can I make sure that data is updated successfully to both data sources when they are connected using different handles? thanks. Tag: VFP 9 Local Drag and Drop Tag: 225475

    - Chicago FUDG hosts Greg Green on 8 August 06 Come to the ChicagoFUDG meeting on Tuesday 8 August 2006 and check out another example of creativity and ingenuity in the VFP community. Our speaker will be Greg Green, a SAP consultant working on a contract in the Chicago Area. His passion is building a better programming environment. Here is Greg's description of what he will be demonstrating at the meeting: â??The menu editor is actually a subset of tools that I have been working on. I also have a program (prg) editor, a form editor, a visual class editor, a form/program/class comparison editor (displays side-by-side code and property differences), and an enhanced project manager. All editors support intellisense, code completion, color syntax highlighting, code block highlighting, change control, book marks, search/replace, undo/redo and more (user defined macros, font selection, enhanced printing, etc.).â?? â??Also, in the form/class editor, if properties or method names are changed it will search for matches and update references as well, and you can copy methods from other classes or forms and add as new, or append/replace existing methods. The project manager also has all the features of the standard project manager with extended capability.â?? Other topics will arise as surely as ENDDO follows DO WHILE. August 8th, 2006, 5:30 PM at the Monadnock Building, 53 W. Jackson, Suite 826, Chicago Loop.

    - Disabling Combobox items I know that I can disable a combobox item by assigning a "\" to its value. How can I determine programatically if any combobox item is disabled? When reading the value, it does not return the "\" character. Cheers David Tag: VFP 9 Local Drag and Drop Tag: 225453

Is there a way to drag the contents of a control on a form to another
control?
IE. drag contents of a textbox to another textbox.
My specific need is to drag the contents of a cursor cell to a cell in
another cursor.

I have gotten it to work using a right click to copy and then paste but
would like it to be a little more elegant.

Thanks Lee,
The dragcopy from grid to textbox worked great. Also works great for
textbox to textbox.
Now I need to drag from cell in one grid to cell in another grid. The
code for the above doesn't work for that.
Am I missing something? Does that need a different methodology?

Jim
