    - Resizing a Picture in a word document Using VFP 9 SP1 I'm able to create a document, send the correct data, create a table and insert a photo in a cell (I'm using .Cell[2,4].Range.InlineShapes.AddPicture((lcImage)) ), so far so good. I'm looking in the book automation with Visual Foxpro and it mentions being able to assign a height and width to the image. I've tried - .Cell[2,4].Range.InlineShapes.height = (number) etc, but it tells me it doesn't recognize the object. Could someone please tell me how to pass the height and width so I can resize the picture. thank you Tag: C# or C++ equivalent of VFP (Visual Fox Pro) BITOR Tag: 220798

    - FORMSET Issues I am using something new for me, a FORMSET. Problem is, it does not behave the same on my home development box as it does on my other boxes. 1. FORM1 in formset, lets a user select the customer, then brings up a grid on FORM2. 2. User nows selects a customer detail record and presses a button to make FORM3.visible, which should display information in textbox's based on the current record. Two XP Professional/SP2 boxes on INTEL show the correct record on FORM3. My new XP Media Center Edition/SP2 on AMD Athlon 64 will not display the correct record. This new XP Media Center box is also the same box where Foxpro 9/SP1 will not ask if I want to overwrite the existing .exe when rebuilding. I even Uninstalled and Reinstalled today, but getting the same results. This is really frustrating trying to get this stuff working, when the behavior is different on different PC's. Anybody got any ideas????? Thanks for your help Tag: C# or C++ equivalent of VFP (Visual Fox Pro) BITOR Tag: 220788

    - ADO CursorAdapters - only first is loaded Environment: ADO Cursor Adapters, connecting to an SQL 2005 DB. I have found that only the cursoradapter specified as 'InitialSelectedAlias' in the form's data environment will be loaded. All other ADO-connect-type cursoradapters do not load. If I change the connection type from ADO, to ODBC all cursoradapters are in the datasession and loaded correctly. Can anyone steer me in the right direction?

    - Display preceding + on numeric data in browse I want to browse some data with quantity variances. I want to show + in front of positive numbers, I'd hoped there was a format code to do that but can't find one. Next I converted the data to character and added a leading + or - and tried browsing with a picture clause but unfortunately CREATE CURSOR test (test C(10)) INSERT INTO test (test) VALUES ('+123') INSERT INTO test (test) VALUES ('+99347') INSERT INTO test (test) VALUES ('-3 BROWSE FIELDS test :P='@J' does exactly what it says - right justifies (*not* right alignment.) Fixed pitch font is obviously better but still isn't correct, the data is not up against the right hand edge of the cell like numeric data would be. Is there any way to do this? -- TIA Andrew Howell Tag: C# or C++ equivalent of VFP (Visual Fox Pro) BITOR Tag: 220776

    - Looking for VFP programmer in Upstate NY I am a relatively new VFP programmer, but despite this have managed to make a few dollars by developing an application for a client in the Albany, NY area. The client has undergone significant growth at their single location, and now has outgrown my ability to serve them. This is compounded by my pending recall to military service for a tour in the Middle East for several months. I am looking for a VFP programmer near the Capitol District of Upstate NY who would like to have this client. Per my agreement, the client owns the source code for this very customized VFP 7.0 application, so negotiations to provide service will be made directly with the client. A confidentiality agreement with the client should be expected. If you or someone you know could be interested, please contact me ASAP, as I leave for military service in a very short time.

    - Problems installing VFP8 - SOAP toolkit won't install. Running Win2k, and I "think" all updates are loaded. I'm going to check that now just in case. However, I've installed this on one pc in the past, and am now trying to install on another and it needs the prerequisites loaded. I tell the installer to go ahead and load, and it errors on the SOAP Toolkit. I'm able to install by using the setup.exe /no_dhsl_check option(I think I have that typed right here) and VFP installs, but I'm unable to edit any .prg files. It says they're read only, which they shouldn't be. Is this because of the SOAP problem? What is the SOAP toolkit anyway? And, any ideas why it's not loading properly? Thanks!!

    - Update any users Exchange (2003) Calendar from FoxPro 8 Hi Does anyone have any information or guidance on this issue ... I have a multi user FoxPro 8 system and want to use FoxPro 8 to put calendar entries into the Exchange (2003) Calendar, maybe through Outlook but that does not have to be the case (CDO?). I want to be able to do this for any user in the Exchange i.e. not just the current users calendar. I have a list of user names in FoxPro which can be cross matched to Exchange Server user/email names (with an extra field in the table). But I am unsure how to reference the calendar and thus put an entry into it. Note this is not a users local pst file. Any help or pointers to documents/code/help would be appreciated Thanks John R.

    - Including report forms in exe I have a VFP (9.0) exe that contains a lot of report forms. Even when I include the report forms in the reports section of the project I get a message 'File not found' when you run the exe. I even included specific pathing for the call REPORT FORM (gcPath + "reportname") to print noconsole and I still get the error. If the report forms are placed in the directory with the exe they work ok. Is there something special that needs to be done to make this work correctly. I don't want all of these frx's sitting in the exe directory. Jim Czebiniak Tag: C# or C++ equivalent of VFP (Visual Fox Pro) BITOR Tag: 220735

    - Visual Persistence with grid Is there a way to have the last selected cell have visual persistence when using the grid? You can have visual persistence for the last row that was selected, but I can't figure out a way to highlight the last cell that was selected. I have an application where I have a grid and a listbox. When someone clicks on certain cells in the grid, it fills the listbox. But if they click on an item in the listbox, I want the last grid cell to be highlighted to give a visual check on what the listbox data is.

    - APPEND FROM does not work as Import wizard I am trying to import a text file with the following sintax: APPEND FROM file.txt DELIMITED WITH CHARACTER | I have VFP with SYSFORMATS ON, witch is the same configuration of the txt file (point=',' and separator='.'). When I append the file with this command, he imports the numbers greater the 999 wrong, as they have a dot(.) as group digit. For example, the number 12.498 will be imported as 12 (small number like 653 is imported as 653). With this command it imports de decimal fields correctly, for example, 0,9 is imported as 0,9 correctly. When I use the import wizard for text files, it now imports the thousands correctly but loses the decimal numbers, for the example above, we would see something like this: filed 1:12.498; field 2:653; field 3:0,0.

    - Doug Henning at Chicago FUDG on 14 Feb 06 The February Chicago FUDG Meeting will be a Webinar on Stonefield Query. Doug Hennig is the author of Stonefield Query and of the Stonefield Database Toolkit and a guru of gurus. Doug wrote the Cursor Adaptor builder that is in VFP 9. Check out his site at <http://www.stonefield.com> Or attend the February 14th Foxpro Users and Developers Group meeting. Doug says it's not cold enough in Chicago in February. He'd rather stay home in Winnepeg Saskatchewan. Instead he'll be available via streaming video and Skype phone at our meeting. Here is more on the new release of Doug's Stonefield Query which will be discussed in detail at our meeting: The Report Wizard has been replaced with a more powerful and user-friendly Reports Explorer. Role-based security is available for report folders, individual reports, fields, and tables. The Advanced Report Designer was overhauled and includes a new _Expression Builder. Creating a setup executable is now a snap with the built-in setup generation tool. http://www.stonefieldquery.com/devedfeatures.html This is our first meeting where we bring in a guy from another part of the globe without paying the air fare.

    - [OT] User-Defined string Functions Transact-SQL <-> VFP Ladies and Gentlemen, I am pleased to offer, free of charge, the following string functions Transact-SQL: AT(): Returns the beginning numeric position of the nth occurrence of a character expression within another character expression, counting from the leftmost character. RAT(): Returns the numeric position of the last (rightmost) occurrence of a character string within another character string. OCCURS(): Returns the number of times a character expression occurs within another character expression (including overlaps). OCCURS2(): Returns the number of times a character expression occurs within another character expression (excluding overlaps). PADL(): Returns a string from an expression, padded with spaces or characters to a specified length on the left side. PADR(): Returns a string from an expression, padded with spaces or characters to a specified length on the right side. PADC(): Returns a string from an expression, padded with spaces or characters to a specified length on the both sides. CHRTRAN(): Replaces each character in a character expression that matches a character in a second character expression with the corresponding character in a third character expression. STRTRAN(): Searches a character expression for occurrences of a second character expression, and then replaces each occurrence with a third character expression. Unlike a built-in function Replace, STRTRAN has three additional parameters. STRFILTER(): Removes all characters from a string except those specified. GETWORDCOUNT(): Counts the words in a string. GETWORDNUM(): Returns a specified word from a string. GETALLWORDS(): Inserts the words from a string into the table. PROPER(): Returns from a character expression a string capitalized as appropriate for proper names. RCHARINDEX(): Similar to the Transact-SQL function Charindex, with a Right search. ARABTOROMAN(): Returns the character Roman numeral equivalent of a specified numeric expression (from 1 to 3999). ROMANTOARAB(): Returns the number equivalent of a specified character Roman numeral expression (from I to MMMCMXCIX). AT, PADL, PADR, CHRTRAN, PROPER: Similar to the Oracle functions PL/SQL INSTR, LPAD, RPAD, TRANSLATE, INITCAP. Plus, there are CHM files in English, French, Spanish, German and Russian. Plus, there are versions for SYBASE ASA, DB2, Oracle, MS SQL SERVER 2005 SQLCLR. More than 8000 people have already downloaded my functions. I hope you will find them useful as well. For more information about string UDFs Transact-SQL please visit the http://www.universalthread.com/wconnect/wc.dll?LevelExtreme~2,54,33,27115 Please, download the file http://www.universalthread.com/wconnect/wc.dll?LevelExtreme~2,2,27115 With the best regards.

    - Licensing Folks, A prime advantage of Fox has always been its licensing policy. Once you purchased the original development edition you could produce applications which would run free of any extra charges (royalty free). My impression is that this has changed in the more recent versions. I haven't been able to find the information on the official MS site. Is my summary of VFP licensing correct? Are there changes? If so, what are the new restrictions? There is a good chance this discussion has transpired more than once. If so it would be nice to have a pointer to where I can find those threads or web pages.

I know report previewing has always been flaky with VFP, especially in the IDE, but I just noticed that with VFP9 you still can't preview 2 reports at the same time if you try to use right mouse to preview them. After spending a bit of time with this, it appears to be a continuation of the mouse right click crash bug. Open table. Create 2 reports that run against table. Open both reports in report editor. Right click a report, select preview. Right click other report, Menu manager internal consistency error occurs. Faulting application vfp9.exe, version 9.0.0.3504, stamp 436c14ff, faulting module vfp9.exe, version 9.0.0.3504, stamp 436c14ff, debug? 0, fault address 0x0021ab95 Happens with VFP9, VFP8, VFP7.

    - Field display on report question? Hi, Using VFP 9.0. I'm designing a simple report for one of my tables and I'm seeing something that seems odd to me. The field expression is: alltrim(lname) + ", " + alltrim(fname) So I should get 'lname, fname' on my report. It seems to be working except where fname is null, then I just get .NULL. on my report. I would have thought that if it were null then I'd just get 'lname, ' out on my report but instead I only get .NULL.. Can anyone shed some light here? Thanks, Linn Tag: C# or C++ equivalent of VFP (Visual Fox Pro) BITOR Tag: 220638

    - problems with installshield in 9.0 I am attempting to install build an install exe for vfp 9.0 runtime. When I run the exe on a machine that does not have 9.0 dev installed it chokes with the message "Visual Foxpro could not start. Could not load resources": I looked through postings here and found several suggestions and solutions that worked for others, such as 1. don't forget the vfp9r.dll 2. include the c## libraries 3. just copy the runtime dll into the exe directory and that is all you need. 4. be sure to register the dll 5. don't register the dll. At this point I am confused. I have tried all of the above and still it doesn't work. I have manually registered the dll and that didn't help. Is this an XP issue??? I have used the installshield with 7.0 distributions with no problems. Which c## libraries should I be including? Which boxes should be checked in the redistibutables section?? help???

    - Dialog error message What would cause the following message to appear when a user is running an application I've written? I've not had it with other users running it. The user has an AMD processor with 523,000 KB mem running Windows2000 Professional. Error message: "Unable to open dialog" They then click on OK and continue with the program and all appears to work fine. It seems to have no consistent time it does it.

    - Read from text file I have a text file with e-mail addresses seperated by Return key (chr13). I need to import the e-mail addresses into a table. To do this, I created a table with one C(100) field and was able to execute: append from textfile.txt type SDF with VFP6.0. All data got imported ok. However, when I do the same command in VFP9.0, all e-mail address in the table displayed as a square box - unrecognized character. What did I do wrong? -jesk Tag: C# or C++ equivalent of VFP (Visual Fox Pro) BITOR Tag: 220612

    - Attempting to Automate VSS 2005 w/ VFP9 I'm revisiting a problem that stumped me years ago. I'd like to automate the sharing of project files within the VFP IDE through VSS Automation, and everything's good to go except for the VSS "add file to source control" dialog - I'm hoping I might be able to use some of the new functionality VFP9 to get past this. Here are some options AFAIK: VSS's IVSSEventHandler interface - but would have to write a separate DLL. BindEvent() - to trap windows messages and perhaps get a reference to the dialog window. EventHandler() - but so far, I don't have a COM object to attach to. I think I need to get a reference to the dialog window's hWnd and do something like a SendKeys or a SendMessage, but the VSS automation doesn't seem to expose any objects I can grab a hold of.. Would appreciate all suggestions. Thanks. -- William Fields Code Contortionist MCSD - Microsoft Visual FoxPro US Bankruptcy Court Phoenix, AZ ".dll hell - .rpm hell - whatever.

    - How to append a Word doc to a general field and display it as an icon I need to append a word document to a general field and display it as an icon and edit it in word when you double-click it. The default option when you use the command "Append General <generalfield> From <file>" is to display the file content and edit it inside the oleboundcontrol. The only way I found to do this, is to check the "Show as an icon" option of the "Insert Obeject..." menu in the Create from file tab. Is there a way to do the same but programatically with the "Append General" command ??? Thanks in Advance !!! Best Regards, Geo L. Tag: C# or C++ equivalent of VFP (Visual Fox Pro) BITOR Tag: 220606

    - Upgrade from FPW/DOS 2.6 to VFP6.0 I'm preparing to upgrade an application package that uses Foxpro 2.6 for Windows/DOS, to a newer package that uses Visual Foxpro Version 6. I have an opportunity to buy a used Upgrade version of VFP 6. Would that version consider the old Version 2.6 a qualifying version for upgrade purposes? Thanks for your help.

I am looking for the C# or C++ equivalent of the following VFP snippet...

someVar = bitor(bitor(bitlshift(3, 13), bitlshift(4, 9)), 0x00000001)

Thanks in advance.

someVar = 26625;

Well, bit wise manipulaions are operators in C:

bitlshift: <<
bitrshift: >>
bitor:|
bitand: &
bitxor: ^

And that's still valid in C++ and C#.

Bye, Olaf.

I guess I am missing something...

this in vfp...
someVar = bitor(bitor(bitlshift(3, 13), bitlshift(4, 9)), 0x00000001)

does not appear to translate to...
someVar = |(|(<<(3, 13), <<(4, 9)), 0x00000001)

thanks in advance.

Hi LvBohemian

> someVar = |(|(<<(3, 13), <<(4, 9)), 0x00000001)

Yes, you are missing that operators work different than functions:

function: function(operand1,operand2)
operator: operand1 operator operand2
Depending on the definition of the function it could sometimes also
translate to the different order of operands:
operator: operand2 operator operand1

for example:
function bitor: bitor(1,2)
operator |: 1|2

+ is an operator you should know, you also don't write +(1,2)
you write 1+2, don't you?

Well, pps showed you.

I thought that hint would be sufficient. As you should have a help
system with c++, c# you could find the rest yourself, with the
help or with google.

Bye, Olaf.
