    - Vfp9.0sp2, InstallShield. The setup of my application always interrupts before completed. I transfer my old application (contains and a OLE server exe) written in Vfp6.0sp5 to Vfp9.0sp2. Runs fine, no problem in the development environment... The InstallShield Express Limited Edition v5.0 that cames with Vfp9.0 creates the setup.exe of <MyApplication> without any error (only with the Self Registering the OLE server.exe, never mind!). I run the setup.exe, starts OK everything goes ok but before the last screen I have the message: "The wizard was interrupted before <MyApplication> coulg be completed installed... ... run setup again." No error code, nothing! What goes wrong? Any idea? My best wishes to all of us, for the 2008 !

    - Word Automation VISTA Problem I have been using the following to open a doc file in VFP 8: oWord = CREATEOBJECT("Word.Application") oDocument = oWord.Documents.OPEN(MYLOCATION+'\'+C_FILE_NUM+'.DOC') WITH oWord .Application.WindowState = 1 .Application.Visible = .T. ENDWITH This work OK in XP even when I have another instance of Word open. It creates another instance of word, opens the file up and displays it. BUT When I use the same commands in VISTA and there is an instance of Word on the taskbar it opens that instance file up as well as the new one and the bad part is it puts the old file on top of the new file I am trying to open. Is there any reason why in VISTA the CreateObject does not open up a new instance of Word?? At least is there a way that I can get the new file I am opening on top on the old file that was on the task bar?? Thanks for any help. TonySper Tag: Path Command Q. Tag: 238510

    - handling fatal errors at run time So far, I have not gotten reports of FoxPro errors occurring in applications I've distributed. I've gotten plenty in development to be sure, but I haven't heard about those from users. Yet. When that happens, is there anything I can do to control the box that pops up saying things like "fatal error" and "FoxPro" and "Send report to Microsoft"? I haven't decided exactly what kind of control I want over it, but I'd like to know whether it's even possible. Tag: Path Command Q. Tag: 238508

    - Excel Automation I am automating Excel 2003 and trying to remove the default vertical page break, when I try to delete it I get an error, I can delete a page break that I added though. So since I cannot remove the pagebreak I tried to move it to the column I want it at using VPageBreaks(1).Location this does not work. Could someone explain how to get the page break where I want it. I have searched Google and the examples I have seen all adding pagebreaks and not moving. Every one have a great New Year Thanks Tom Tag: Path Command Q. Tag: 238506

    - VFP 9 and Vista I had to buy a new computer with Vista on it not long ago and I upgraded to VFP 9.0 on that machine. I set beha to 8.0 on the Vista machine because of some problems. Anyway the rest of my machines are XP linked together with Linksys Router 10/100. My Vista machine is running the initial loading of the forms very slowly. This never happened before I upgraded. It is acting like a network problem (like it is searching for files on the xp machines). Eventually the forms will load and are quite fast once loaded. Any ideas would be appreciated. Could it be a setting in VFP 8 on the XP machines or in VFP 9 on the Vista machine? John Tag: Path Command Q. Tag: 238504

    - editbox interactivechange I have a simple form with two edit boxes. Both of their control sources are memo fields from the same cursor. Even without making any changes, just tabbing to the various controls on the form, Editbox2 fires interactivechange when it loses focus, but Editbox1 does not. I don't know why this happens.

    - <alias> is not related to the current workarea Hi all, I'm doing my first VFP9 multi-detail-band report. I've got the master cursor related to detail cursors, but when I call the report, I get error 1165, crsDetail is not related to the current workarea. I quick check of the Set dialog shows that it clearly is related to the current workarea. Any ideas? In my detail band, "crsDetail" is in quotes as suggested in the manual. Curiously, I have another cursor, "crsNotes", that is also related to the master table but Fox doesn't complain about that (at least, it hasn't yet). Thanks, Eric Tag: Path Command Q. Tag: 238489

    - Calls between windows I have the need to trigger some events in windows which don't have focus and am not seeing any good way to accomplish this. The scenario is that if specific window is opened and a process started in that window, I need another window to know that the process is running and configure itself accordingly. I know I can use public variables, but they don't "trigger" an event such as a form refresh. I've tinkered with it, and it also does not seem possible for one form to run an event in another window... for example, if form1 could run a form2.refresh that would be a start. Any wisdom appreciated. Thanks in advance, Beverly Howard Tag: Path Command Q. Tag: 238478

    - M`I 5`Persec ution ` BBC News casters Lie & D eny Theyre Wat ching Me MI5 Persecution: BBC Newscasters Lie & Deny They're Watching. Me Central to the persecution campaign waged against me for some. nine years now by the Security Service is their use of. the media, and in particular the broadcast media, to make clear to me that I. am under surveillance and being watched within my own home, even by BBC newscasters while they. read the news. This is really an act. of arrogance; MI5 and their tools in the television and radio are so sure that. they can never be caught, that they have many times made explicity clear on broadcast programmes that. they are as capable of seeing me as I am of seeing the. broadcast pictures. Even when they have known I am taping the programmes they still. carry on this practice; for examples of TVand radio. presenters caught "in action", see the Evidence area. of my website. If you wish to reply to this. article...... then please include your name and fax number! I. provide the means for recipients to send me their thoughts. on the topics discussed, but ask that you provide me with your fax. number or email address if you require a response. Also would you please send not more than one. or two pages, if by fax.. Thank-you! It started with a. Newscaster, and it continues with Newscasters today The very first incident in the story started with a reaction by. an ITN newscaster, Sue Carpenter, in June of 1990, almost. nine years ago now. She reacted to what she saw in my living room at home as she. read the news. My mother had brought an apple for me into the room,. whereupon the newsreader smirked and giggled,. apparently finding this funny. I couldn't believe what I was seeing. I. carried on watching news and other television programmes to see if presenters would show signs of. "interactive watching"; to. my surprise, this happened again and again. Unfortunately, I did not have my wits sufficiently about me to videotape. these programmes, and it is now almost impossible to obtain recordings dating back to. 1990. However,. I have been busy recording everything Ive watched the last couple of years, and the taping has yielded some nuggets, which you. will find if you point your Web browser at. the "evidence" area of my website, whose URL address is given above. Strangely it is not particularly the BBC who. are "after. me" at the moment (with the exception of occasional fire from Nicholas Witchell),. but that supposed paragon of virtue and decency Jon Snow of. Channel Four TV News (he actually works for ITN), who once claimed hed turned down MI5s offer of a tax-free salary. I will cover Snows. recent actions. in a future article. BBCs Hidden. Shame The. first ever Usenet post (internet newsgroup article) on the subject of the MI5 bugging /. BBC watching occurred, as stated in a previous article, in early May. 1995. It is reproduced here; Date: Thu May 4 18:27:24. 1995 Newsgroups:. alt.conspiracy Subject:. BBC's Hidden Shame Remember. the two-way televisions in George Orwell's 1984? The ones which watched you back?. Which you could never get rid of, only the sound could be. turned down? Well the country which brought Orwell into the world. has made his nightmare follow into the world. after him. Since 1990 the British have been waging war against one of their own citizens using. surveillance to invade privacy and a campaign of abuse. in the transmitted media in their efforts to humiliate their. "victim". I suppose "BBCs Hidden Shame" is more. of a wish than a fact. It may be hidden,. but the BBC and other media and security organisations seem to have no shame whatever in their anti-social, not to. say criminal, actions. Nor do the general public, who seem. quite happy to parrot the vilest obscenities without. much hesitation or apparently thought. Martyn Lewis,. Nicholas Witchell and the rest Most of the harassment. occurred in 1990-92, when I wasnt making any recordings, and the BBC wont release copies of current affairs. programmes from that period.... so although I. can remember there were many incidents in. that time, even many specifics, I cant dig up the actual programmes to flesh. out the bones. This year, there has been at least one incident with Nicholas Witchell. as newsreader, which I have successfully recorded and. digitized, i.e. converted into a computer Quicktime movie file. This. has not yet found its way onto my website. (Im a busy man, dontcha know) but you can be sure I. will let the readership of these articles know when that clip makes it onto the web. The Witchell clip was. recorded on Saturday 10 April 1999 at 7pm, and shows Witchell. trying to restrain his features from collapsing into a smirk.. First his upper lip quivers for several minutes, then with the non-excuse of a non-joke his entire face twists into a. grin. It looks as if. he finds me so funny, that he allows himself to submerge any pretence at professionalism in a sea. of MI5-inspired sarcasm and harassment. The two BBC newscasters whose reactions to. me I can remember most vividly over the years are Martyn Lewis and Nicholas Witchell.. I can remember thinking years ago that Michael Buerk. was also seeing me at home; and if the other two are watching then. there would be no reason why he wouldnt be doing the same; but in all honesty. I cannot remember a single clear instance of his reacting through facial. or verbal expression to me. I can remember several instances of Martyn Lewis reacting. to what he saw of me, however. In early 1992 I was watching the BBC news with. Lewis on a small black-and-white portable TV at my then home in Oxford. I. threw a term of abuse at Lewis; he flinched, then gave a grin and made a. comment from which I understood that he had been on my. side, but might have changed his mind as a result. of what Id just said to him. And in spring 1991 I remember Martyn Lewis. clearly reacting to what he saw of me at my then accommodation in Woking,. Surrey, by continuing to stare at some fixed point near the camera after the. news had finished - presumably this is where the monitor. interactively showing pictures of my room. was located. Why would BBC and other Newscasters. Watch and Harass Me, Watching Them? This. is a very difficult question, and I dont actually know the answer. It is a. matter of record that the Secret Services are very much part of the Establishment. The recent exposure of the "MI6. Agent List" on the internet, and its coverage in the newspapers, reveals. how much MI5 and MI6 are recruited from the ranks of the. Establishment. Obviously the relationship is bi-directional;. the Establishment influences MI5/MI6, but the secret services (well, perhaps. not so secret now we know who works for MI6!!!) also influence the machinery of power and. information dissemination i.e. media in this country. So they must. have a lot of covert leverage. with the BBC and ITN. Some of this leverage is obviously through. bribery. It is a matter of record. that MI5 tried some years ago to "buy" Jon Snow of Channel Four TV. He turned them down. - obviously they must have approached other media people as well, and from. the lack of other reports of people turning them down,. it may be presumed that some other journalists will have accepted the sugared carrots put before them. Ironically, Jon. Snow has been taking part in the recent "watching" actions against me -. but why he has allowed himself to be used by the secret services is something which. I do not know. Perhaps the Security. Service uses blackmail to twist arms of journalists into co-operating with them? I have always thought. there was something slightly odd about Martyn Lewiss. demeanour. At the time of the Ron Davies "rough trade" scandal it was reported that MI5 had known. all about Davies predilections and the sham of his pretence. to be a happily married man. Perhaps MI5 have been able to dig something up from Martyn. Lewiss private life to blackmail him. into acting on their behalf? And if there wasnt. anything before the "newscaster watching" started then there most certainly is something. now.... once theyve started watching, the newscasters will surely. wish their activities to remain covered-up, and co-operate. with the security service. "Newscaster Watching" Deliberately Constructed to Mimic. Schizophrenia Presumably. this is the first case in history of television journalists actually taking part in acts of real-time, live. spying and reacting against one of their viewers.. What you have to understand, though, is that I was quite mentally. healthy in June 1990, certainly relative to November 1992, when after two and a half years of harassment I was. finally admitted to hospital as an. out-patient. MI5 decided from the outset that they would make me. mad; they constructed the media harassment to resemble what would be reported by a person with mental illness; and then. they carried on years of abuse. to inflict on me the condition which they wished to use as an excuse to cover up their. abuses. I sold my portable TV. in autumn 1990 and stopped watching television regularly. I realise now that this may have been a. mistake. What I should have done was to watch TV and listen to the radio,. but tape-record everything and make a note of what each excerpt meant to me. I would. then be in a much stronger position as regards to. evidence that I am now. That is what I am trying to. do now, but unsurprisingly the TV/radio presenters have. stopped getting at me, now they know they are being recorded. When I started publicising my case on internet newsgroups in 1995, I. was met with the disbelief one might expect to be accorded to. a mentally ill person who talks about "newscaster watching". and media persecution. Some newsgroup participants thought. I had started a "troll", an invention made to obtain a reaction; one bright spark even suggested. a group of psychology students were behind the articles. But most people. thought the articles were symptomatic of derangement - and that is. exactly what MI5 want people to think.. MI5 chose me as a target because I was mildly mentally ill at the outset in 1990,. although I stress my illness then was very mild in comparison with November 1992, and because they. knew that enough abuse would (a) make me much more seriously ill, and (b) once I. was more ill, they would "get away" with a harassment. deliberately constructed to. look like the symptoms of paranoid schizophrenia. Martyn. Lewis Denies & Lies, But Wont in Writing In February 1997 I wrote to. BBC Viewer & Listener Correspondence and asked them. to investigate the claim that their newscasters had engaged in "real-time spying" on me.. They replied that they had asked Martyn Lewis and Michael Buerk whether they had engaged. in such practices, and that they. had both made verbal denials to VLC, but were refusing to put their denials. in writing. To me it looks. as if Lewis and Buerk are happy to lie verbally but not in writing, because written falsehoods would place them. unambiguously in the wrong, whereas they can try to. talk their way out of verbal lies if they are ever caught,. or perhaps even deny the verbal lies completely? If they lie without shame, then why would they have any shame about future. lies about. lying? BBC-VLC also. said that the BBC "would never engage in any form of surveillance activity" such as that described. Clearly Martyn Lewis. and the rest have lied to their own organisations. personnel about their criminal actions. So much for the "objective", "truthful". BBC, a nest of shabby. liars. Summons against the. BBC, for Nuisance caused by Newscaster Spying In March 1997 I issued a civil summons. against the BBC, seeking injunction against further "newscaster spying", and token damages for what. the BBC had done to me until that date. The purpose of the. summons was to try to "smoke out" the BBC, since obviously I did not have good. evidence which would be necessary for either. a civil or criminal case to be made against them. My summons was worded. as follows; 1. The. plaintiff is and was at all material times residing at [home address]. At some time prior to or. during June 1990, persons of unknown identity. entered Plaintiff's premises and installed concealed television equipment. in said premises. 2. A campaign of harassment was launched against the Plaintiff. by the persons of. unknown identity, which in part took the form of instigating harassment by BBC TV. newscasters (including specifically Michael Buerk and Martyn Lewis) as they read news bulletins, by making direct and. personal comments to. Plaintiff. 3. The campaigns purpose. was to subject Plaintiff to great mental stress and induce mental breakdown. As a result of. it Plaintiff did indeed suffer from. severe mental strain in 1990-97. 4. In order to avoid the. mental strain being caused to him the Plaintiff has been compelled. to stop watching BBC TV news. Defendant therefore committed the tort of. private nuisance, since normal use of home was interfered. with. 5. Plaintiff. claims a permanent injunction prohibiting further nuisance, and damages for nuisance suffered limited. to 5,000. Naturally, my attempt to smoke-out the. BBC and its lying newscasters failed. The BBCs litigation department. sought to have my summons struck out; and they succeeded in doing so, on the grounds. of my action "disclosing no reasonable. cause of action". I was also prevented from issuing further civil claims against the BBC without leave of. the Court. Apparently litigants-in-person frequently / usually. have their claims. struck out with this wording, regardless of the merit of their claims. BBC Suppresses my. Claims of "Watching by Newscasters" BBCs staff magazine Ariel ran my advert. "BBC Newsreaders Spying on my home". for one issue in the Personal category on 8/July/1997 before it was spotted and axed by editor Robin. Reynolds; please see webpage;. http://www.pair.com/spook/evidence/plaint/ariel.htm Clearly the BBC will. not allow claims of its wrongdoing to be made public in. the media channels it controls. On several occasions people said to my face that harassment. from the TV was happening. On. the first day I worked in Oxford, I spent the evening in the local. pub the Rose and Crown with the company's technical director Ian, and Phil, another employee. Ian made a few. references to me and said to Phil, as if in an. aside, "Is he the bloke who's been on TV?" to which Phil replied, "Yes,. I think so". The reader might think. that mere "watching" by newscasters etc might be a relatively. benign happening. But it is not; it is part of MI5s framework of harassment and lies. On many occasions the reactions of. the BBCs newscasters to me has been in the nature of sarcasm, implicit. contempt and abuse. This is visible in Witchells news programme mentioned above,. where he engages in abuse by laughing at me during. his newsreading. It was particularly visible in the early period of 1990-92, and as. late as Autumn 1993, when during a Newsnight. broadcast Jeremy Paxman interviewed a football person about soccer hooliganism, and the interviewee gave vent. to an unsubtle rant about "theyre idiots, theyre just. idiots, keep up the surveillance". Paxman. started grinning, showing he understood and was taking part in the. abuse being perpetrated on that programme. Conclusion The MI5 Persecution. started with harassment by television newscasters, and today harassment by. TV and radio presenters still forms a key part of MI5s activities against me. When this business started in June 1990. I was in relatively good health of mind.. Years of persecution by the secret police and their mouthpieces in. the state-run BBC and other media eroded my health until MI5 achieved their aim of seeing me. rendered mentally ill in November 1992. The diagnosis which was forced on me unfortunately. and ironically meant that my reports of the. harassment are disregarded, because the mentally. ill are second-class citizens in todays Britain. Yet TV and radio harassment continues, albeit in a reduced. form, despite my. taping all the programmes I watch, resulting in my being able to obtain and demonstrate objectively on the website instances. of media presenters attacking me. Unfortunately these recorded instances are quite. tenuous; I might. understand them, the presenters understand what it is theyre doing, but despite many thousands of people. knowing the truth of the "newscaster watching", the omerta continues and they continue to refuse to admit. the truth of the matter. It is a terrible indictment of British society. that there is not even one decent person willing to. speak out. I look forward to the day when the truth. does finally emerge, and the mass corruption which has allowed. the MI5 persecution to take place is finally purged and the Establishment. criminals caught and appropriately punished. 5329 Tag: Path Command Q.

    - M`I'5.Persec ution ` Fo ur Y ears of MI 5 Perse cution Pos ts on Interne t News groups Four Years of "MI5 Persecution". Posts on Internet Newsgroups For approximately the first three years of the MI5. persecution, from June 1990 until late 1992, I kept. as quiet as possible, in the hope that by not reacting, MI5s interest in me would decrease and they would simply go. away of. their own accord. This is the sort of behaviour some people employ against bullies; if. the bullies arent getting a reaction, then they might simply. go away and victimize someone else. Unfortunately, this tactic didnt work. The quieter I became, the. more shrill and hysterical the noise from the. Security Service operatives. For about. two years I didnt watch TV news at all. Yet this only heightened their obsessed fixation; they continued to follow. me wherever I went, they continued to induce harassment at work by managers. and fellow workers, and they continued to encourage me to commit suicide. They. seemed to regard my refusal to react as a crime which they. would have to "put right" by ever more extreme forms. of abuse. Finally, in 1995, I. changed tactics radically. Since late 1994 I had had accounts with internet. providers in Ontario, Canada. I discovered the cornucopia of internet newsgroups, on every. topic from consumer electronics, to politics. and legal topics, and I discovered online services such as. Compuserve and AOL. In May 1995, I made the first posting to the conspiracy. newsgroup, on the subject of "BBCs Hidden Shame". BBC's Hidden. Shame The. internet newsgroup discussion, which has now reached its fourth anniversary, started with an article in alt.conspiracy, which I. reproduce here. Date: Thu May. 4 18:27:24 1995 Newsgroups:. alt.conspiracy Subject: BBC's Hidden. Shame Remember the two-way televisions in George Orwell's 1984? The ones which watched. you back? Which you could never get rid of, only the sound could be. turned down? Well the country which brought Orwell into the. world has made his nightmare follow into the world after him. Since. 1990 the British have been waging war against one of their own citizens using surveillance to invade privacy and a. campaign of abuse in the transmitted media in their efforts. to humiliate their "victim". And the most remarkable thing. about it is that what they do is not even illegal - the UK has no laws. to protect the privacy of its citizens, nor does it proscribe harassment or abuse except in. the case of racial abuse. A lot of people in England know this to be going on, yet so far. they have maintained perfect "omerta";. not a sound, not a squeak has escaped into the English press, and for all the covert harassment absolutely nothing has. come out into the public domain. Have the. British gone mad? I think we should be told At this point, I did not name MI5 as. my persecutors. I was still unsure that they were the ones responsible. for the "psychological terrorism". In followup posts however I did name them; and the persecutors. have never denied the claim; so I think my guess is valid. (The Security. Service Tribunal in 1997 have said "no determination in your. favour was made", but it is. a well established fact that MI5 lies routinely to the Tribunal which has never found in favour. of a plaintiff, so no conclusions can be drawn from. this.) This. first post was made to alt.conspiracy, but further posts were made to the UK-local. newsgroups, in particular uk.misc but also uk.legal and uk.politics. (which is now called uk.politics.misc). Some time ago I tried to. take the battle to the Compuserve forums, UKPOLITICS (which is now called UKCURRENT - current affairs),. but my articles were censored by the forum. operators. Such censorship is impossible on the internet newsgroups. Police. Refuse to Act I have complained several times to the. Metropolitan Police, who have each time refused. to help.

This in. itself dos not suggest that the police have it in for you. The old bill operates on extremely tight spending limits forced on them by that. pillock Michael Howard, and without evidence,. they often have higher priorities than chasing something that. cannot go to court. I doubt that the police are actually being leant on, but they probably realise that. if they looked into this, they would be leant on hard. The met. always stays away from anything that looks like it has Defence, Security or secret service interest. already, because they realise that they are below these government. agencies in the general pecking. order. If I walked into my local nick and complained that MI5 were snooping on me,. they would show me the door without even looking at my evidence, because that. bored desk seargant with only five years to go before he retires doesn't. want to start fucking about with somebody who has incurred the wrath. of Stella Rimington. He would rather deal with the lost dogs and driving licence producers, eat his cheese and pickle sandwiches and. piss off home at the end of his shift than have. some high ranking spook having a go at his boss and. getting him a bollocking. In short, you have. earned much sympathy but little surprise. Just remember that saying about the enemy of your. enemies. Most recently, I. wrote in March 1999 to Charing Cross Police Station CID. They did not. acknowledge or reply to my letter. When I phoned them up, the detective Id written to treated me. to a sadly not unusual display of police bigotry, with an uneducated rant about "your. paranoid rubbish". It would be nice to think that such uneducated. bigotry is something other than wholly typical of police. behaviour, but unfortunately that is an illusion that. is rapidly dispelled. Uncorruptible. Jon Snow of Channel Four News From previous articles the. reader will know what I think Jon Snow has recently been. watching me while he reads Channel Four News in the evening. Recently I digitized a few moments of. one such broadcast, where his face twists into a smile, without. there being anything in the news broadcast to cause merriment. Here. is a usenet post from some time ago on MI5s "bought and paid for". tools in the so-called "free" press. Peter Harding (harding@ermine.ox.ac.uk). wrote: : I was at speakers' corner on Sunday. There. was one chap who was bellowing : about. something or other, I don't know what, but one thing he said to :. someone caught my ear: : "BBC,. MI5, same thing." Can't disagree with. that sentiment. Wasn't it. documented that MI5 sometimes "bought" journalists and broadcasters?

MI5 to become their covert mouthpiece, and had refused. ............................................................................. > : >mouthpiece,. and had refused. >. : > : It was Jon.

He was most concerned that many others would have. accepted such an offer. However, we can probably make an educated guess as. to some of those who accepted: Nigel West (Rupert Allason, MP) and.

Most of the expenditure. is directly on the salaries if the agents involved; and in this post I. put forward the theory that MI5 are trying to draw out their involvement for. as long as possible, very cynically, to maximise their income and. line their own pockets. At each. stage they have tried to pretend that I am something out of the ordinary. Either I was very stupid. ("he's an idiot") or very clever ("he's like a genius"). Either. I was a threat to Western civilization (Levin once referred to me as the next Hitler). or I was completely defenceless ("a soft toy"). Now, it should be obvious to any person with common-sense. that I am not out of the ordinary in any way. I have an IQ which is. average for the Web, I am racially white European, and there are plenty of other people with. schizophrenia or epilepsy out there who haven't been targeted for MI5 attention, so why. me? I think the. answer is that the MI5 agents who harass me have cynically exploited the situation by painting. me as extraordinary in order to assure themselves of well-paid employment funded by the. ordinary British taxpayer. To put it bluntly, they are stealing millions of pounds from the. taxpayer to feed their own pockets. This assertion is supported by the. observation that it's the same agents who are doing the harassment. Six months ago in a local hospital. I was harassed by someone whose face I had seen (he had stared straight at. me aggressively, at the time I just thought it was some nutter but it turns out he was one of "them") aboard a KLM flight a. couple of years ago. It's presumably been the same people most of the time. I've seen. the way contractors act when they. don't want their positions terminated. Would these agents really want to lose their well-paid. employment harassing me? Presumably they are promising. their bosses a "breakthrough" (ie my demise) real-soon-now and have been for the last seven years, while all the while these MI5. agents skim millions off. the taxpayer. I. wouldn't mind a job like that. Perhaps if I persecute myself a little bit, like standing in front. of a mirror and shouting mindless obscenities, do you reckon I'd get a slice. of the caky Service Tribunal. This year Nick Brooks, current Tribunal Secretary, confirmed. to me that he could not think of a single case where. the Tribunal had found in favour of a complainant. Here is my usenet. post from two years ago. Subject: MI5:. "It wasn't us" Newsgroups:. uk.misc,uk.legal Organization: Toronto. Free-Net "The Security Service. Tribunal have now investigated your complaint and have asked me to inform you that no determination in your. favour has been made on your. complaint." Signed ER Wilson, Tribunal. Secretary Well that's a relief then. All that. spamming for nothing eh. Gaw blimey, if they say. they're not doing it then it can't be them, can it? In a recent letter to Mr Brooks I. expressed the opinion that the Tribunal were unable to fulfil. their responsibilities in the face of MI5 falsehoods. Nevertheless, I do intend to make. another complaint to the Tribunal. in the near future, despite the Tribunal appearing to be a toothless. watchdog. Discrimination against a Unit. Minority MI5 have been very clear. in their instructions as to what I should do. They have openly shouted at. me the word "suicide", and also from the other abuse it is clear. that they want my existence terminated. This point is covered. in more detail in a previous article. The following post. describes the xenophobic nature of MI5s campaign against me. They have refined their bigotry down to a unit minority, yet. they make use of the discrimination against the mentally ill. which is a feature of current British. society. Subject:.

It happens everywhere, not. just in Britain. The persecution that is going on now is in. reality a refined form of racism. Instead. of "nigger" it's "nutter", and abusing the mentally ill is still socially acceptable today. In 50. years it might not be, but today there isn't any social or. legal sanction against it. So really they've refined racial harassment. down to a minority of one. The words may be different, but the methods are. the same. 3859 Tag: Path Command Q. Tag: 238475

    - M`I,5-P ersecution ` MI 5 Wa ste Taxp ayer M illions on P ointless Hate-Campa ign MI5 Persecution. Update: Friday 30 April, 1999 If You Intend. To Reply, Please Read This Please.... keep your response to one page!. Faxes over. a page or two will be deleted without. being read. Somewhere between 0 and. 100% The last few. days there have been no clear recordable instances of abuse.. However, while travelling on the Underground, while walking around near my home and going to friends. homes, I am constantly troubled by thoughts that those people over there might be about to get. at me; that the couple sitting in the. opposite seats laughing are in fact laughing at me; et. cetera, et cetera. A comment by a scientist to the BSE inquiry sticks in. my mind. He described the possible scale of the epidemic as. "between 0% and 100%". It might not be happening, it. might not happen at all, to any discernable degree..... or it might be total. Without clear recording, which seems to have become impossible the last couple of weeks, there is no. way of knowing whether the harassment really is continuing,. whether we have entered a temporary hiatus, or whether perhaps it has. perhaps stopped for now. But for the time being I think. there arent any reasons to dicontinue these faxes. I. only re-started them six weeks ago in response to a resumption of MI5 harassment; and I think I will need. to be more convinced of absence of persecution before. I discontinue my complaints. The Newscasters. are still watching In the last few weeks there have. been at least a couple of fairly overt instances of. "interactive watching" by newscasters. I reported this in a previous "MI5 Persecution. Update". These instances are really very rare compared to 1990-91, when there. were many dozens. of such occurrences. Undoubtedly the reduction is due to my practice of videotaping everything. I see. Recently I had the opportunity of showing this years "happenings" (Jon Snow/Nicholas Witchell) to. my psychiatrist, and he agreed that in both cases. the newscasters were expressing merriment without visible. cause, and that objectively it might be possible for my claims to be true. - although of course other people reported similar thoughts. to him, and this thinking is usually a symptom of. illness. Read About the MI5. Persecution on the World Wide Web The March 1998 issue (number 42) of .net Magazine. reviews the website describing it as an "excellent site". Since August. 11, 1996 over 50,000 people have. browsed this website. You are encouraged to read the web. pages which include a FAQ (frequently asked. questions) section outlining the nature of the persecutors, their methods of harassment through the. media, people at work and among. the general public an evidence section, which. carries audio and video clips of media and workplace harassment, rated according to how directly I think they refer to. me objective descriptions of the state security agencies. involved scanned texts of the complaints I. have made to media and state security agencies. involved posts which have been made to. netnews over the last four years on this topic Keith Hill MP. (Labour - Streatham), my elected representative, as ever refuses to. help. MI5 Waste Taxpayer. Millions on Pointless Hate-Campaign Recently I was talking. to an independent observer about the nature and purpose of the perceived campaign of persecution. against me. The person I spoke to,. a highly intelligent man, said he was struck by the utter pointlessness. of the perceived campaign against me. He also said that, if my theories. were in fact true, many people would have to be involved, in the surveillance itself, and in the technical side. of the delivery of information from my home to TV studios for example, if the. "interactive watching". were happening as described. He voiced these thoughts without any prompting from me; but both I and other observers had arrived. at pretty much the same conclusions, some years. ago. I saw a team of four men at Toronto Airport in. 1993 To carry out the surveillance. alone, full-time, would employ four or five men, or their equivalent. in terms of man-hours. Each man would "work" an eight-hour shift, so you would need. at least three men doing the surveillance, plus. a connecting link / manager. An indicator that this estimate is correct arrived in 1993, when I was accosted by one of. a group of four men. at Toronto Airport; he said, laughing, "if he tries to run away well find him".. Plainly these were the men who had been involved in the intrusive surveillance of. me for the preceding three years. On other occasions, I have seen the same man on two or three. occasions. On one such occasion, at Ottawas Civic Hospital in. November 1996; he gave his name to the doctor as. "Alan Holdsworth" or some such; my hearing is not very good sometimes and I am not sure of the. surname, although I am sure "Alan". was his first name. I saw exactly the same man again in Ottawa, at the airport, in July 1998. Obviously,. other people must be "working" with this person; he would not be the sole agent. employed in this case. Usenet. readers views on the Cost to MI5 of Running the Campaign Here's what a couple of other. people on internet newsgroups / Usenet (uk.misc) had to say regarding the cost. of running such an operation... PO: >Have some sense, grow. up and smell reality. What you are talking about PO: >would take loads of. planning, tens of thousands of pounds and lots of PO: >people involved in the planning,. execution and maintenance of it. You PO: >must have a very high opinion of yourself to think you are worth. it. and...... PM: >But why? And why you? Do you realize how much it would. cost to keep PM: >one. person under continuous surveillance for five years? Think about PM: >all the man/hours. Say they _just_ allocated a two. man team and a PM: >supervisor.. OK., Supervisor's salary, say, #30,000 a year. Two men, PM: >#20,000 a year each. But they'd need to work in shifts. -- so it would PM:. >be six men at #20,000 (which with on-costs would work out at more like PM: >#30,000 to. the employer.) PM:. > PM: >So, we're talking #30,000. x 6. #180,000. plus say, #40,000 for the PM: >supervisor. #220,000. Then you've got the hardware involved.. And PM: >any transcription that needs doing. You don't think the 'Big. Boss' PM: >would listen to hours and. hours of tapes, do you. PM:. > PM: >So, all in all, you couldn't actually do the job for much less. than PM: >a quarter million a year. Over five years.. What are you doing that makes PM: >it worth the while of the. state to spend over one and a quarter million PM:. >on you? Those are pretty much the sort. of calculations that went through my head once I stopped to consider what it must be costing them. to run this operation. At the very least, a. quarter million a year - and probably much more, given the. intrusive and human-resource-intensive methods employed. Times nine years.. Equals well over two million pounds - and probably. much, much more. Its wasteful for someone with my. skills to be unemployed The wastefulness of the MI5 campaign against me. is not just that of futile expenditure on their side. It is also extremely wasteful for. someone with my talents to. be unemployed and on a disability pension. I am highly qualified in numerate. disciplines, yet am unable to work, specifically because of the MI5 hate-campaign. against me. It is a terrible waste of resources for a supposedly efficient economy. like that of the UK to be squandering the talents. of a skilled and capable worker. I made every effort to remain. in employment for as long as I could, but ultimately I was. defeated by MI5s employment of massive resources specifically. targeted on my workplaces with the sole aim of seeing me evicted from those workplaces. You might expect. this sort of behaviour from the Stasi or some other secret police. force in a communist country where labour is. cheap, and the governments aim on seeing its citizens confined; but for a supposedly free and efficient. economy like Britains, the wastefulness resulting both. directly and indirectly from the Security Services activities is simply criminal, and should never. be allowed. The international dimension means the costs. are multiplied many times overoer had any sense, then. they have surely taken leave of them over the last. nine years. Four years. of persecution in Canada The persecution re-started within. less than five minutes of my arrival in Canada, as documented above, and in. the "frequently asked questions" article on the website. The words,. "if he tries to run away well find him" spoken by one of the harassers at Toronto Airport. are now imprinted on my. mind. A year later I emigrated to Canada, intending to find. a job and settle there, hoping that MI5s interest in. me might dim with time. I did manage to find work there, but my hopes of avoiding Security. Service interest were ground. into dust. As detailed above, I saw the same man in November 1996 and July 1998, both times. in Ottawa. Apart from these encounters, there were numerous incidents between 1994 and 1998 of harassment, of. an identical. nature and in most cases using identical words to what had occurred in the UK. It. became quite clear to me that the permanent surveillance and harassment operation which MI5 had subjected. me to in England was. being continued. For. a team of four or five men to be employed overseas must cost a lot more than if. they operate in their home country. And for MI5 to continue the operation for a period of over. four years, continuously, must cost many hundreds. of thousands of pounds. This confirms my belief that the state is funding the campaign against mehat the. Security Service receives current annual funding of #160M. Divided by. 1850 staff, works out at #86,000. But the unit annual cost of each "watcher" must. be much higher than this, especially. given the frequently mobile and overseas nature of their actions of the last few years. A very. conservative figure might be a little. over #100,000 pa for each of a team of five people, or half a million pounds per year. For nine years, so far. So. the most conservative estimate of the. surveillance element alone is perhaps four or five million pounds since. 1990. This. guesstimate is of course theoretical - I am not privy to inside details of. how MI5 split their funding. But to take some other examples, the cost of a US counter-surveillance specialist per day. is USD 5,000. Even if the agents permanently assigned to. me are not of this calibre - even if they. employ specialists when difficult work planting bugs etc is encountered - their. salary and support costs must still be very high. The individual agents are doing well for themselves as. they are well-paid to exercise psychopathic instincts. which in any sane society would see them in prison;. but the taxpayers who must fund this terribly wasteful exercise are being "done" out. of hundreds of thousands of pounds each. year. It. must be emphasised that the above estimates are highly conservative. Besides the surveillance operation, it must. carry a high cost in man-hours to propagate covert slanders through the population;. to setup and maintain the "interactive. watching" links to TV and radio stations, which these organisations. continue desparately to "lie and deny"; and to induce antipathy in co-workers which would. not otherwise exist. Why they are wasting Millions of. Pounds on a "Nobody from South London" As remarked in the. prologue to this article, it is really most extraordinary that. the Security Service spends a chunk of its budget, every year for nine years. so far, on a meaningless campaign against a "nobody from South London". That they. are spending such a large amount of money has been confirmed to. me on several occasions, usually by oblique references to "its costing. this country millions". The supposed "logic" behind. the persecution is that MI5 wish to avoid their harassment of me, and the involvement of. the UK media, to be made public; yet as the reader will appreciate that is. a circular argument, "theyre doing it because they want to keep it secret and avoid humiliation. for themselves and their country" begs the question, "why. did they start doing it in the first place?", to which in truth I myself do not. know the answer. Plainly MI5. with its rich budget can afford half a million pounds a year to waste on a "nobody from South London". Some. time ago I was talking to a British. surveillance professional on Compuserve who told me "this work costs a lot of. money and is usally because the person I am following has done something (usually criminal) to warrant all this money and time. being spent." Yet in this particular case it is. plainly not the "victims fault" that the harassment is. taking place. The hate-campaign against me is completely the creation of the obsessive psychologies of the. MI5 agents who have made themselves my persecutors; it is. obviously a "personal" campaign for them, and for years they misuse. taxpayer funding to feed their insane,. unnatural and fixated fantasies. 2389 Tag: Path Command Q.

    - M'I`5 Persec ution , Compari ng th e MI 5 Persecuti on wit h Germ an Fin al Soluti on MI5. Persecution Update: Friday 16 April, 1999 If You Intend To Reply,. Please Read This Please..... keep your response to one page!. Faxes over a page or two will be deleted. without being read. BBC newscaster Nicholas Witchell. cant stop himself laughing During 1990-91 there were very many instances of. "interactive television" where newscasters. and other TV presenters saw on a screen before. them what was happening in my home, and reacted, frequently by laughing at me. During this period I unfortunately did. not record these programmes. For the last. year or two, I have been recording everything I watch, and there has been a drastic. decrease in such incidents. However, on. occasion, television presenters do still engage in "interactive watching" and. react to what they see. This has been evident with Jon Snow of Channel Four News recently - a particularly. interesting case,. since it has been established that he cannot be corrupted by money (it is well-documented that MI5 offered him a tax-free. salary and he turned. them down). I wonder what device MI5 are using to encourage him to do the. "interactive watching"? On. Saturday 10 April 1999 at 7pm, Nicholas Witchell on BBC2 News reacted when he saw that I was watching the programme,. and I have his reactions stored safely on videotape. I have watched. this tape several times and I am entirely confident that my evaluation of his reactions is correct.. For several minutes his upper lip quivered in mirth as he attempted to. keep a straight face.. Then finally his self-control evaporated through the excuse of a weak. joke and his face collapsed into a grin. The strange thing is that. I dont know why he was laughing at me, what I had done recently to "deserve". to be laughed at. The MI5 persecutors usually manage to invent some justification as to why people should. laugh at and/or abuse me ("hes an X", "it was so funny". etc), so Mr Witchell could have been laughing for any number of reasons. Perhaps he found. the views. I have been expressing in these articles amusing? I suppose if youre paid enough money and ordered to laugh then even the. most innocuous thing becomes. funny. Jon Snow of Channel Four News cant stop. himself smirking, either. On 12 February 1999 I. was watching Channel Four News presented by Jon Snow.. As usual, I was recording the programme, so that if anything out of the ordinary happened,. Id be able to go back and watch it again. Now, Jon Snow, by his own. claim, is uncorruptible. He says he turned down an offer of a substantial tax-free salary from. MI5 - they wanted to make him their mouthpiece, and he told them where. to get off. So you will. be most surprised to learn that Jon Snow "interactively watched" me that. evening, and on many other evenings. Approximately fifteen minutes into the programme, he announced. that the US President would be making a live appearance. at about 7.30pm; I looked at the clock on the mantelpiece; and Snow saw me looking at the clock,. and visibly tried to suppress a. smirk. Uncorruptible, are you, Mister Snow? If. not money, then why are you watching me, Mister Snow? Are they forcing you to watch. me? Cant you turn the monitor off,. Mister Snow? Keith Hill MP (Labour. - Streatham), my elected representative, as ever refuses. to help. Comparing. the MI5 Persecution with German "Final Solution" It might seem offensive to compare the mass murder. of millions of civilians in wartime with the peacetime persecution. of merely one person. Yet the comparison. has been coursing through my mind for several years. now, because the brutality of German intent to "sub-humans" is very much comparable to the brutality. of British intent to someone they vituperate and term "not up to British. standards". The methods may differ, but the persecutors. mindset is the same. The. Germans first targeted the mentally disabled, too During WW2 millions. of ethnic Russians, Poles, Jews, mentally ill, gypsies and other minorities were. rounded up and murdered in purpose-built camps by. the German regime, in the name of "racial superiority". Fifty years on, the British Secret Police, MI5, instituted a campaign. of mass hysteria; but in their cowardice, limited their activities to. one single victim. It is instructive to note that the early. German "cleansing" effort was directed primarily not at Jews, but at the. mentally ill. The Nazis set up the. T4 project in the thirties to "cleanse" away 70,000 mentally disabled people, including schizophrenics and epileptics. After WW2. the Jews with their media influence used the reaction from. the holocaust to roll back anti-semitism in the Western countries; however,. the mentally ill are today still a persecuted group in. the modern Western world as they were under the Nazis (the current Jewish home secretary in the UK. intends to bring in laws for. incarceration without any criminal charge for some mentally. ill people - he protects his own minority, but does nothing for the other. minorities in todays society), and this continuing bias forms a central. cause for the current acts of persecution in the UK. Widespread knowledge of what is happening to the. "un-British" minority In both the German persecution of the thirties and. early forties, and the current British persecution, many, many people. are well aware of whats happening. There is widespread complicity through. inaction of populace; and in a substantial proportion of the. mainstread population, the persecution had/has widespread enthusiastic. support; yet in both the German case in the 1940s. and the British today, the existence of persecution is a mass secret which. must be never admitted out loud. In the recent Lawrence case this "secret bigotry" has been. termed "institutionalised racism",. and that is a very good word for what the British are doing today. The persecutory attitudes and omerta regarding them are so. deeply ingrained in the national psyche that they define the national. mood During WW2 many Germans knew minorities were. disappearing, and through inaction. quietly condoned their government's mass murder of "un-German" minorities and inferior "foreigners"; and in. the 1990s, similarly, many. English people know what the MI5 British Secret Police have. been doing, and not only condone it, but actively take part, because of xenophobia against the "un-British" unit minority that. is the target of "British" actions. This. attitude by the British persecutors has been made explicit through the words "he's. not up to British standards"; the British seem to have found their very own. "untermenschen" to victimise. Why these. obsessive "holy wars" happen This type of. aggression occurs when the majority is threatened or humiliated in. some way, economically, militarily or culturally. In pre-WW2 Germany the threat was primarily. economic and military, following Germany's humiliating defeat in the first world war and the. reparations it was forced to. pay. In modern Britain, one might guess that the majority English who are behind the persecution feel pressured. by the swiftly diminishing status of Britain in the world,. and the rapidly increasing coloured colonisation of their country,. which in time will see the ethnic English a minority in their own land, and their more antisocial. elements, unable to reply to the obvious. threat, instead project their aggression onto. another, weaker, unit minority In both cases there is. a whiff of "holy war" or irrational obsession with the persecution. Certainly the German behaviour fifty years. ago bordered on the not-quite-sane, and the current British. behaviour towards their chosen victim. is strongly tinged with a leave-taking of reason. And the choices open to the victims are the same,. since MI5 will never allow me to escape them, "if he tries to run away we'll find him", just like. the commandant of. Auschwitz telling the new arrivals, "the only escape is through. the chimney". The Victim Will Destroy Us if We Dont Destroy Him. First The persecutors propaganda is the. same. Fifty years ago the Germans said, "if we don't do it to the Jews then the. Jews will do it to us"; and MI5's propaganda in the early nineties. concentrated on their victim as a "monster" aesome. "untermenschen" minority. "We are decent fellows" say the. Brutal Persecutors During the course of researching this article I read part of the. very interesting book, "Hitler - A Study in. Tyranny", by Alan Bullock. This volume contains a quote. from Himmler on the "Final Solution"; "Most of you know what it means when a hundred corpses are lying. side by side, or five hundred or one thousand. To. have stuck it out, and at the same time .... to have remained decent. fellows, that is what has made us hard. This is a page of glory in our history. which has never been written and is never to be. written." In the MI5 persecution, too, there is a thread of deliberate brutality. to the sick and vulnerable, while the persecutors maintain that. "we are decent fellows". There is. almost a conscious schizophrenia in the self-attitudes of the Security Service. operatives and those in the public who they employ against me, which reflects the. contradiction evident in the. German attitude above. On the one hand, they stoop to the lowest and most base behaviour; yet at the. same time, the MI5 operatives tell themselves that since they are. civilised British people, then surely they must by definition be. "decent fellows". Any indecency is made the fault of the. victim; "hes making us persecute him, so we need feel no guilt". Yet the. conduct is atypical of the way these peoples see their normal modes of behaviour. Befslaughter was not. typical of normal German behaviour up. to that point. Similarly, the current MI5 abuse goes against the grain of British self-image as being. "reserved" and "decent", since they are using terms of abuse. which are common among blacks and other supposedly less-developed races, but not. among the English. Conclusion The ultimate aim of both persecutions. is the humiliation and physical extinction of the persecuted group.. The Germans did this in a very direct way; the British Secret Police MI5 are. acting indirectly and relying on self-extinction of their target, because in peacetime. and in the current somewhat false climate of. "political correctness" more direct methods are impossible. If MI5 undertook more direct action the mass. "omerta" would be broken. I have written this article with sincerity to. show how a historically recent persecution in another country parallels what is. being done in this country today. In both. cases, the evil-doers are of their countries establishments, and rely on. widespread tacit support to maintain the persecution and omerta around it. While. the holocaust was undoubtedly the greater evil, it is important. to be aware of the fact that had the Germans not been defeated fifty. years ago, their plans would have gone through to total completion. In Britain today no force threatens. the "permanent government" of. which the Security Service forms a part; and it looks very unlikely that the wrongs perpetrated by the. MI5 secret police will ever be revealed to public. view, and the British secret state brought to justice for. its evil actions. 919 Tag: Path Command Q. Tag: 238473

    - messagebox with timeout weirdness Do this: MESSAGEBOX('message',16,'title',100000) Which causes a messagebox to be displayed with a 100 second timeout. Look at your taskbar, notice the extra icon on it. It has a fox icon, and it's caption is the title of your messagebox. Now click on the VFP desktop wihle the messagebox is still displayed. Notice that the messagebox is no longer visible because it is now behind VFP. You can't do anything in VFP while the messagebox is active - but you can't see the messagebox either. So, my question - how can I use messagebox with a timeout and prevent it from being hidden by my app? If you don't use the timeout parameter, it works as expected. If you use the timeout parameter, it can be hidden by the app, the user does not see it, their app is non- responsive, and the next thing you know you have data losses because they alt-ctrl-del and killed the app because they didn't notice the message box hiding behind the app. This appears to be how messageboxes have worked since VFP7, but I've never had the need to use the timeout parameter until now. Making the current form or _screen modal doesn't change this. Tag: Path Command Q. Tag: 238439

    - Another (hopefully simple) VFP 7 report writer question Hello and thank for the help. Also, happy holidays and happy new year to all. In the form designer, for most objects, you have top, left, height, and width. Is there anything similar for the report writer? How do you make small adjustments to a box or line to line it up with other objects in the report. I can easily move the box with the mouse but I can't make small adjustments to its size. I turned off "Snap to Grid" but the adjustments still have to be made with the mouse and it is difficult. Is there any way to numerically specify the width of an object in the report designer?

    - Class not registered error I have a form containing an activex control. The form was created on another system. If I rebuild my application on my current system all works fine however if I edit and save the form on this systemthen attempt to re-edit the form I get an error: OLE error code 0x80040154: Class not registered. OLE object is being ignored. The control is then seemingly stripped from the form. The OCX in question is present on my current system and has been registered via regsvr32. When I attempt to add the activex control via the toolbox OLE control item, the control is listed in the list of available controls but when I select it to add I get the OLE error code 0x80040154: Class not registered error again. What do I need to do to make the control registered so that VFP will allow me to use it. The version of the control is slightly different between each system - build 2.0.0.1169 as opposed to 2.0.0.1253 on the current system. thanks pete Tag: Path Command Q. Tag: 238372

    - Making a form appear docked I have a form which I would like to anchor to the left hand edge of the screen and appear as if it's been docked without the user being able to do any 'docking' functions....i.e. I don't want them to be able to undock it or move it's position. I've managed this by turning the titlebar off, setting the left position and altering the height of the form when the main screen size is resized. All of that works OK and I'm happy with how the form appears on screen. The problem is - because it is not 'really' docked and only appearing to be so, when I minimise forms or maximise a form the left hand edge of the window goes behind my toolbar. I'd like to do one of two things: 1. Ideally dock the form to the left hand edge of the screen and then stop the use moving the window or undocking it....(preferably disabling the title bar) or 2. Know how to resize a form to the internal dimensions of the VFP window taking into account the size of the toolbar. I imagine this should be quite simple for standard forms but what about when I run a report to preview? How can I control the print preview window in the same way? Tag: Path Command Q. Tag: 238309

    - Copy File Won't Work Hello - I discovered a problem in both VFP 6 and VFP 9 where copy file fails and I'm not sure how to get around it. It seems to fail when there are spaces before the filename. Suppose you have a file in any directory called test.txt (let's say the c:\junk folder as an example). Try this: 1. Click Start, Run and type CMD and click OK and then type CD\JUNK 2. Type Rename test.txt " test.txt" this puts spaces before the filename which you cannot do from windows explorer but you can do at the command prompt. 3. Go into VFP and from the command prompt type the following: m.lcFile = "c:\junk\test.txt" ? file(m.lcFile) && returns TRUE m.lcFile2 = "c:\junk\test2.txt" copy file (m.lcFile) to (m.lcFile2) && GIVES AN ERROR CANNOT CREATE FILE Most likely no one would have a space or two before a filename but one of my clients did and that is how I discovered this. Is there a way to fix this? Continuing on with this crazy logic: ? file(m.lcFile) && Returns TRUE rename (m.lcFile) to (m.lcFile2) && returns File Does Not Exist Mike Tag: Path Command Q. Tag: 238281
