    - Migration from XBase++ to Visual FoxPro 9 Hi, I am working on a project in Visual FoxPro 9 which will eventually replace the existing software written in XBase++. During this migration process, I will use the existing XBase++ tables with cdx indexes. Does anyone have any recommendations or any data recommendations during this migration. I seem to have random index problems. The problem will not be there and then it shows up. I then delete the index file and reindex with the XBase++ software and the VFP9 software will still show the error. I then open the free table and the index in VFP9 and then issue reindex (This is done without trying to browse the table). All is cured. The table is still accessable from XBase++ software and VFP9 software. Anybody know what is going on here and what I need to start doing in order to make this work? Thank you, Mike Tag: Printing on a dot matrix with vfp9 Tag: 214973

    - Keypress event F2 works in VFP6 but not VFP7 onwards I am converting an application from VFP6 to VFP9 and have discovered an issue that I hope someone can help with. I am trying to capture the F2 key being pressed within a textbox on a form in the keypress event (nKeyCode=-1). This would not work in VFP9 so after trying many things I built a basic form with one text control and a capture of the key press events to screen. It appears that in VFP6 the textbox keypress event happily tells me that F2 has been pressed, however in VFP7 onwards it appears that the F2 is not captured and nothing happens. The ON KEY LABEL is not active and F3, F4 etc are all working e.g. nKeyCode=-2, nKeyCode=-3 etc. This happens only with F2 (nKeyCode=-1). Does anyone know why? Is there something I am missing? This seems too simple an issue to be a bug? Thanks John R. Tag: Printing on a dot matrix with vfp9 Tag: 214955

    - Foxpro dll and Installshield I built a multithreaded com server (dll) in FoxPro 9 and put it into my installshield to install. When it tries to build the installer I get this message. The build was unable to extract COM information from the file <my dll file> in component <my dll file>. Please ensure that the file is self-registering and verify that the self-registration process does not fail. I can register it fine manually with regsvr32 but I do not want to manually register it.

    - Rounding question and trig functions set decimals to 4 ? SIN(1)*COS(1) 0.45464871 ? .5*sin(2) 0.45465 VFP rounds the result, but why does the first get rounded to 8 digits, and the second get rounded to 5? SIN(1)*COS(1) is the same number as .5*sin(2), but VFP somehow treats the above calculations differently. If I put them in the watch window, they display the same as what is printed to _screen, with the same inconsistent rounding. Tag: Printing on a dot matrix with vfp9 Tag: 214938

    - Protecting your code Hi, How to protect your code when distributing class libraries (vcx) and Databases. How to stop some customer to make "improvements" to your stored procedures? I do not want to include the Databases and or class libraries in the project(s) as some of the libraries are shared by multiple APP/EXE and the Databases need to change depending on customer needs (like for example adding a new index to a table or to repair indexes and reestablish relations).

    - Menu Path solve Taking the "IN LOCFILE(.....) portion out of the menu generator allows menues truely to be integrated in APP/EXE files. With the standard menu generator you will have to include the menu.mpx in the original location which also does not allow to make a true setup where the enduser selects the destination directory. Scenario. app directory: F:\myproject source fiels: F:\myproject\source The menu on the developing machine with the other SCX and prg is in the source directory. Running the "standard" Menu generator will generate some code like ON SELECTION PAD _1hv06ai6t OF (m.cMenuName) ; DO _1hv06ai6u ; IN LOCFILE("\Myproject\sourc\MyMENU" ,"MPX;MPR|FXP;PRG" ,"WHERE is MyMENU?") Now if on the destination machine there is no directory Myproject\source then the above menu code will popup that file selection box asking for the MyMENU even though the menu had been included in the project and compiled into the app file and had been already executed with the "DO Mymenu.mpr ....." Command earlier in the code. Changing the code to ON SELECTION PAD _1hv06ai6t OF (m.cMenuName) ; DO _1hv06ai6u - ommitting the LOCFILE part will work and resolve the above problem.

    - True case structure of file path? Hi. Believe it or not, I'm using Visual FoxPro to generate JavaScript code. This code references images found on a web site. Problem. The server must be case sensitive. In other words, if I generate [./ygl casket offerings/metal caskets/premier metals/pharaohfrontppt_thumb.jpg], I get file not found. I need to generate [/YGL Casket Offerings/Metal Caskets/Premier Metals/PharaohFrontPPT_thumb.jpg]. Is there a function or utility that will retrieve the true case structure of a given file and it's path?

    - Need help! Need older version of FoxPro and/or help. I was a database developer using FoxPro back in the early to mid 90s. (I cannot remember which version we used.) I have not touched FoxPro since 95 and do not have the program or manuals from what ever version that may have been. I got Visual FoxPro version 8.0 a couple of years ago and I'm just now trying to get into it. I have to say I don't like it a bit! I was very comfortable with the older environment where all the code was written out in command files, except for reports and forms. The help file in version 8.0 does not include enough of the old commands and syntax for me to develop my program command files. I also do not like the form and report generators. I am not writing just to complain, rather I would like some help to see if any of you would know what version was used 10 years ago and if anyone has an old copy they would part with. I really need the help file! I know I should learn the newer version, but I'm just an old dog. Does anyone have any ideas? I would kill for all of my old source code, but that belonged to the company which was sold in 95.

    - Resolving Path I got a form class with the following custom properties menu - which contains the menu name for the form defpopup - which contains the default popup to get opened on the form This is the code in the init snipped DO (THIS.MENU) WITH THIS, THIS.TAG IF TYPE("THIS.DefPopup") = "C" AND !EMPTY(THIS.DefPopup) AND POPUP(THIS.DefPopup) ACTIVATE POPUP (THIS.DefPopup) NOWAIT ENDIF etc. etc Works great - only problem is that when I distribute the app only I also got to distribute the mpx or I get an error - Now the menu is included in the project and the command DO (THIS.menu).... works fine - so in this case it can find the menu inside the app/exe files only if the mpx is missing the command ACTIVATE POPUP ... will open up a window looking for the mpx. Any way to avoid that? Also same seems to be true for frx files. REPRORT FORM (lc_reportname) will look on the disk and not inside the app where the report is located.

    - specifying format in SQL Hello and thanks in advance for the help. How do you specify the format of a field in and SQL query? Example: I have a field called OPEN_BAL which is N (9,2). All values are > 0. I have another field called TRAN_TYPE which is C(1) and can have the value 'D' or 'C' For reporting purposes I need the 'C' types to subtract so I have a query: SELECT IIF(TRAN_TYPE = 'C', OPEN_BAL * -1, OPEN_BAL) AS OPEN_BAL.... This works fine except that the resulting field size in the query output is 9,2. If OPEN_BAL happens to be > 100,000.00 (example 123,456.78) the value will be -123,456.7.

    - FPW2.6a @...SAY won't update when I want it to I've mentioned this before but this time it's the subject and it's really annoying me. I have a progress bar / thermometer drawn in nice old fashioned @...SAY and it will *NOT* update the screen when I want it to. Pseudocode looks like this ************************** FOR x=1 TO lots * do stuff * update progress bar NEXT x @...SAY 'Finishing off' SELECT <cursor> DELETE <expression that takes a while> SELECT <query that takes a while> ************************** What is so annoying is that the screen sits there showing "processing (lots-1) of lots" and then 'Finishing off' will be printed on the screen AFTER the DELETE command has finished. I have put 100 SHOW GETS, 100 @...SAYs interspersed with 100 SHOW WINDOW ... REFRESH in between "@...SAY 'Finishing off'" and the "SELECT <cursor>" and it makes no difference. The similar thing I've come across before is in a screen by the screen designer and 2 SHOW GETS seems to work for that. Is there any way I can make it work how I want? -- TIA Andrew Howell Tag: Printing on a dot matrix with vfp9 Tag: 214781

    - Excel Print Area Hello, i have created an excell sheet by code with Visual Fox Pro. everything is fine with one exception. i have set the print area to be a certain size, but my data wcould be larger than that, so when it prints i get the last page cut off. osheet.pagesetup.printarea = "$A$1:I$166" is there a way to have the sheet or workbook print area shrink or grow depending on the data?

    - acquired documents from scanner Hi, Are there any recommendations on this topic ? There seems to be "lots" of hits on a google search and I was wondering if someone has some experience with this. It should be able to grap one or more documents, if possible over LAN all from within my app. (Also prices ranges from around 40$ to 400$ ?!?) Thanks in advance regards christophe -- \|||/ (o o) ----ooO-(_)-Ooo------------- Tag: Printing on a dot matrix with vfp9 Tag: 214775

    - Slow screen repainting Hi, There are numerous situations throughout our VFP9 application where repainting of the screen is slow. Examples : 1. a form is shown (eg. a progress-bar form) and then heavy processing immediately occurs (such as retrieving data from SQLServer). A grey block is shown on the screen where the form is, the form is eventually painted some time later when Foxpro is not so busy. 2. a form is closed and then heavy processing occurs. A grey block is shown where the form used to be and the underlying screen area is not repainted until later. The forms are created via createobject() and then displayed using "oform.show", rather than "do form". I have tried "oform.refresh" after the "oform.show" but this doesn't help. I don't remember having this problem back in VFP 6; the issue has existed in all subsequent versions of Foxpro. Is there any VFP setting, or WinAPI call, that will force the screen to repainted immediately? Other suggestions? Thanks. Paul Elliott Tag: Printing on a dot matrix with vfp9 Tag: 214767

When I set report behavior 90, The fonts no longer print out correctly on a
dot matrix printer. When I set report behavior 80 everything is fine.

What Can I do to insure the fonts print out correctly? I tried saving the
printer environment and it did not help. Sending output to generic text
printer driver does not work well either.
