    - - How to Save Target As.. ? I am trying to automate IE6 to downolad a bunch of documets (.tif, .fax files). Is there a way to execute "Save Target as" within IE object? For instance, I have a link that looks like this: https://www.whatever.com/viewfiles.jsp?fileid=999&name=FILE+NAME+.TIF and I need to download this file to a specific folder with a new file name: c:\TifFiles\_999FileName.tif If I use URLDownloadToFile, I get a blank page since viewfiles.jsp is preventing me from getting the file directly. However, if I use Navigate and then ExecWB(saveas), I am prompted with a dialog to Open/Save/Cancel from Navigate followed by Save As (filename)dialog from ExecWB. With this, I get the ability to download the file but how do I stop the prompts? Ideally, what I am looking for is something like URLDownloadToFile(with ability to provide source url and destination file name) that would work like Navigate->ExecWB(saveas) without the prompts... Is this the right group to post this on? Tag: Timer events... when? Tag: 210902

    - Record does not unlock Hi I have an application made in FPW 26, using tables .DBFs. An application process locks a record and when finishes, unlocks it. Randomly, the record is not unlocked and other users performing the same process stay waiting indefinetly and they have to kill the application. Even though when the process who locks the record finishes and the user closes the application with all tables closed, the record remains locked and other user remain waiting. What could be the problem? How can I solve it? Thanks in advance Francisco Heker Tag: Timer events... when? Tag: 210890

    - Servoy & Firebird learning curve compared to FoxPro Goldmine 7.0 (CRM) is moving away from xBase, will ship with Open Source SQL DBMS called Firebird (similar to Interbase) as alternative to MS SQL Server version of their product. I'm not much of a programmer, and the only programming language I have ever come close to mastering is/was FoxPro (VFP 6). I have thought of learning Filemaker Pro but since Goldmine is probably going to be my CRM of choice and version 7 will nolonger use dBase I'm faced with learning more about Firebird and wondering what I would use to access the underlying data in addition to or outside of Goldmine. I lean towards FoxPro only because I'm familiar with it already. Interested in opinions / comparisons of FoxPro and Firebird, and also a FoxPro users perspective on Servoy as an RAD tool. John "J.J."

    - Foxisapi won't launch COM application Here is my situation: VFP 6.0, XP PRO. http://localhost/common/Foxisapi.dll/RESET & STATUS work properly COM server is out-of-process exe COM server can be loaded directly from Fox with: o = create("bulkm.x2") ? o.testServer() && This works But when I try to launch it from within IE I get "page cannot be displayed" http://localhost/common/foxisapi.dll/bulkm.x2.testServer In the event log I get: The HTTP server encountered an unhandled exception while processing the ISAPI Application 'foxisapi + 0x1E96 + 0xD8CF25C5' It must be a permissions problem. So within the component services I have set: The COM permissions on "My computer" are set to Allow Access and Launch for the IUSR account Under DCOM config the COM server is set to use the defaults for security I am thinking that maybe it is the permissions on the common directory, because Foxisapi writes a file to that directory.

    - Outlook Read Email Does Not Run The Form I tried posting this to the Outlook forum with no responses.... I have a custom Email form I have designed with a button on it. However, I notice that when I double click on a form in my inbox the custom form is loaded so that I can read the Email on the custom form. But, the button won't work unless I then click Form, Run this form. Isn't there a way that I can make the button work automatically when the user reads their Email so that they can just click the button rather than click Form, Run this form and then click the button. I'm guessing that maybe Microsoft did this so that scripts won't run but I'm wondering if there is an easy way to activate that button. Thanks Tag: Timer events... when? Tag: 210863

    - textbox date format I have picked my brain to bits and I can't figure this out. Maybe someone can help me. There is a grid and underneath this grid there is a textbox that is called txtSearch. So users type the word they are searching for and hit Seek. Now when you have ordered the grid by last name the txtSearch is fine. When you click on the Date column, the txtSearch now has / / indicating a date format. When you hit on the Last name column one more time, the / / do not disappear. I can not get it to. Do you know where this formatting is set and why I can't get rid of the two forward slashes? I just want to be able to say something like txtSearch.Clear or something. Thanks in Advance.

    - Problem with SELECT [alias] I have a screen which has a list of calls and actions, listed by the latest date. Each 'call' can be handled alone or I can create an 'action' related to this call. I use 4 tables in a database. 'Calls' which may have a bunch of 'Call_Interventions', and 'Actions' which may also have a bunch of 'Action_Interventions' (both have a SET RELATION). So, from that screen, I click on an action ID and I open another screen which list the details on that action and a list of interventions, if there are any. This works fine. For the call, I have the same process. I click on a call ID and this should open the call details screen with a series of interventions done by the operator. I do a 'SELECT Calls' but the 'select' curiously stays on the 'Actions' database. I placed a bunch of 'SELECT Calls' in the calling screen, in the Init, in the function that refreshes some specific area of the screen, but it stays on 'Actions'. Curiously, the Call data is OK but I have all the call interventions instead of only those related to this call. By looking at the Data Session, I see that both relations are still in effect. Actually, if I click on 'Calls' manually, it works. It works also when I run it in Debug/trace... strange and frustrating. Can you help? (I hope I am clear enough...) Tag: Timer events... when?

    - - How do I rename print-to-file filename at runtime? I am trying to convert a bunch of different format files (.jpg/.pdf/.doc) to .pcl (print-to-file) in a batch procedure. I've used shellexecute to open the files (with an associated application) and then send them to a printer that is set up to print to a particular file name (myprint.pcl). In particular, The printer is configured to a particular file name local port (c:\print_files\myprint.pcl) so that, if anything is sent to this printer, the output is redirected to this particular file (not the printer itself). The problem with this is that myprint.pcl is overwritten every time a new file is being sent for printing. How can I get this resolved i.e. how can I rename the default file name (myprint.pcl to say my_batch_file_name.pcl) at runtime before printing to it? Ideally, I would be looking for an API that would allow me to control this parameter (read-write) at runtime and, of course, a sample would be highly desirable. Tag: Timer events... when? Tag: 210702

    - Data problem I have an application created with VFP6 and is now upgraded to VFP7 that uses data which was originally created in Access then imported into VF6. The data is then manipulated (in VFP6) then sent to me to test with the application. The application was nearly bug free. We had been testing it for a little over a month. Once I entered the new data all sorts of bugs arose. It was as if we never debugged it. Certain code stopped working and needs to be re-written, etc. Some were valid bugs that just never displayed regardless of the machine it was put on, but with the new data it finally displays. Most of the issues were data saving issues. I'm only given a few days for turn-around for data testing. How can I prevent this massive breakage? Will VFP9 help? I read that strange things may happen if using one version of VFP to create the tables and another to use the data. That seems to be true, but I do know this was happening when we were both using VFP6. It just didn't seem quite as massive. Tag: Timer events... when? Tag: 210670

Here is the problem If you put a grid on a form (or on a page of a pageframe), and insert a combobox control in one of the columns and change the CurrentControl property to point to the ComboBox, the following will happen: 1- if the Combobox control style is set to 0 (dropdowncombo), the Combobox will only show the first 8 characters of the field 2- if the Combobox control style is set to 2 (dropdownlist), it will show the entire field. However, in both instances, the control doesn't refresh when you click on it and select an item. nothing appears in the combobox till after you move to a different column or a different record. My suggestion is to try it keeping this in mind: the combobox point to a field in a related table.

    - SourceSafe issues continued Right, let's continue this topic because I'm still not clear on a few issues. Our "build master" updated the master project (PJM) in VSS. We have a dozen developers that need to update their project. How do they do this? "Joining the project" is what we do because it is the only way we know how. It is very slow and causes the user doing so to check out the PJM, preventing anyone else from doing this. User A "joins" project. VSS automatically checks out the PJM to this person. This is just not right. User A does not need the PJM, and VSS should not check it out to them. User B, C, D....J all want to do the same, but no one else can because you can't "join" the project if the PJM is checked out to someone else. When this happens, it takes all morning for everyone to get the most current project because they have to do it one at a time. We can't "update project", because overwrites the PJM with old project settings. Update Project goes from local VFP to VSS, and we want to go from VSS to VFP. Getting latest does not update the PJT/PJX, and without an updated PJT/PJX you cannot truely get latest from within VFP. Getting latest simply gets latest version of files project is aware of. We've been going back and forth, back and forth, and the tech leads want to get rid of the PJM and just store the PJX/PJT in sourcesafe because (from their perspective) the VSS/VFP interface is such a kluge. I'm not sure I disagree, but then I'm not a VSS expert. Tag: Timer events... when? Tag: 210630

...in Fri pm duh mode. Timer events fire between lines of code or between
procs? Also there are some issues with users setting focus on other non-VFP
processes while timers are enabled, I seem to remember. Some refresher
remarks about that'd be good, too.

TIA.

I guess I don't understand what you're asking.
Can you elaborate a little more on what it is you are trying to do/fix?

AFAIK, it's not possible to interrupt anything "in the middle of a line of
code" (operating system excepted, of course).

Timers should continue to work properly even if another application is
foremost. But having said that, I've seen a few programs that seem to lock
up the whole processor from time to time.

I wrote a background application that uses several timers running
simultaneously and continuously, and no problems have been reported.
