    - Method code swapping in VFP8 SP1 VFP8 SP1 on XP Pro SP1 I've seen this reported in other versions of VFP, but not in VFP8. After editing a form and running it, I got some odd errors. I went back into the form and found that several methods had their code swapped. The code from the Load and Init methods had been swapped, the code from the Show and Unload methods had been swapped. How's that for scary? This form has about 40 custom methods added to it and only the native methods that had code in them got swapped. The custom methods were all fine. In VFP's defense, at the time this happened, (but after the form had been saved, compiled, and run) VFP crashed due to another issue. I suspect these events are related since I've never seen this code swap problem before this. -- TRW _______________________________________ t r w 7 at i x dot n e t c o m dot c o m _______________________________________ Tag: create a help file Tag: 211014

    - RDP, Memory and VFP Hello, At a customers place, I have to develop foxpro (8.0) in a Remote Desktop session on a heavy machine, lots of memory, 2 cpu's etc.. When I' m running large queries I frequently get an error: "Not enough memory for map file", or when I look at the rushmore optimization it says; "Not enough memory to rushmore optimize table x". I tried SYS(1104) or/and sys(3050,1,large) / SYS(3050,1,small). But nothing seems to help. Sometimes it helps to log off the rdp session and start a new session. Because off security reasons it's not easy to try the query on a local machine (without RDP)... Is there anyone who knows how to solve this? TIA Gerben Kessen Tag: create a help file Tag: 211012

    - Multiple Detail bands in Report Writer? Not sure if that's what I need to do or not, but here's the gist... We do testing services here, using vehicles. The data is compiled at certain mileage intervals. The report goes like this... Header Detail lines showing data at each mileage interval More lines showing data another way at each mileage interval. Same as above, data another way. Same as above, data still another way. Same again, data still another way. Each of these "bands" show the mileage intervals and dates that the data was compiled. But each of these show the data in a different manner. Initially, raw data, next band a sort of summary type data, the next band a projection data, but still based at the individual mileage increments when the data was compiled, next band is a series of comments compiled at each measurement interval and finally a set of physical properties taken at each mileage interval. Right now this is done as a "manual" report in FPD2.6. I have no idea how to get this into the report writer. Can someone please help? Point me in the right direction? Thanks!

    - C0000005 upon vfp exe exit after responding to .net events I am getting a dreaded C000005 at address 79221bd8 after running a simple vfp exe that opens a simple .net form and responds to an simple event. The event is being handled fine by VFP, but upon exit the windows error is displayed. What is strange is that when this simple app runs in the VFP IDE it works just fine. No errors. Running it standalone produces the error. Does anyone here have some experience/sample code in responding to a vb.net dll's events in a VFP executable? I would sure appreciate some help here. Again the code is working just fine; .net dll is being created and .net form is running in new thread, I am implementing an eventhandler in VFP correctly since the event fired by the .net form is being responded to by VFP. It just blows when exiting back to Win XP. Thanks. SJT Tag: create a help file Tag: 210960

    - SQL Problem I have a problem (VFP6) in getting a summed amount which I need for a report. In simplified form, because there are other related tables, the code reads:- Select tenants.lastname,tenants.tenantref,more fields, tenacc.item,tenacc.debit,tenacc.credit,sum(tenacc.debit) as sumdebit,sum(tenacc.credit) as sumcredit; From tenants inner join tenacc; On tenants.tenantref=tenacc.tenantref; order by tenants.tenantref; Where (tenacc.item='Due' OR tenacc.item='Received'; INTO cursor rentsa The problem is that the summed fields include all debits and credits for tenantref, ignoring the Where line which is intended to restrict them. I would like to define the summed fields as sum(tenacc.debit) for (tenacc.item='Due' OR tenacc.item='Received') but SQL does not accept a FOR clause. I have also tried using the summing ability of a report format, but cannot seem to get it to work Help would be much appreciated. -- Tim Hobson Tag: create a help file Tag: 210917

    - - 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...

    - 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."

    - Getting number of e-mails programatically Our ISP collects all of our incoming mails, and every 15 minutes the POP3 connector of SBS downloads the mails, but sometimes the download does not work, so I would like to run a tiny program that tells me how many mails we have queued at our ISP. How should that program look like? Walter Tag: create a help file Tag: 210780

    - How to make the group in the same page I am making a report using VFP 6.0 I want the whole group printing on the same page. i.e. Don't split the group Header + Detail + Footer into different page. OR Don't split the group Header / Footer into different page. There's some Memo field in the Band and I have to select Stretch for this Memo. The VFP would print the first two line on the first page and the rest lines in the next page. How to make the Memo on the Same page. Tag: create a help file Tag: 210778

    - 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...)
