    - Inserting a page in a report - VFP 9.0 Hello, Within a VFP 9.0 report, i would like to insert a blank page between page 1 and 2, if the total number of pages of my report is uneven. Would be perhaps possible with the new reportListener object. But i don't see where to start. Thanks in advance for help, Regards, Guy Tag: New VFP multi-threading example posted Tag: 223990

    - Connecting to remote VFP database using ASP We are having a difficult time connecting to a Visual Foxpro database located on a remote server using ASP. It is a security issue because the web application can connect if the database is located locally on the web server. When we point to the remote database and run the code, the application cannot find the location. We tried everything in the Microsoft KB article located at: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/175801/en-us but nothing seems to help. Our connection is through an ODBC System DSN that uses a UNC path to the remote database. Any advise or help would be appreciated. Tag: New VFP multi-threading example posted Tag: 223966

    - Copying a Database (DBC) Is there a trick to copy a database from one directory to another? I am trying to set up a test area for a system on my computer. I have duplicated the file structure for the drive on which the DBC is located. I have copied the files for the database and the tables in the database. I have used the SUBST command to map part of my drive to the same drive letter as the DBC is expecting. But it doesn't work. The Validate database command shows errors for just about every table in the database. For most files it says: "Table is not in a database." If I use modify database and then click on a table, it says "Cannot resolve backlink." Is there anything I can do short of recreating the whole database from scratch?

    - VFP6: Getting Lousy Output I have a dot-matrix printer that I use for Q&D output. When I print from DOS programs, it works great and spits out the output quickly. When I print from VFP (or any other Windows app), it insists on making it better quality. This takes several times longer. How do I set the printer driver to give me low-quality (and fast) output?

Is there a way to allow a user to run an app, but give read/write/modify permissions to the app instead of the user. That way the user can access the data but only via the app. I know I can effectively do this locking down with group policy, but I have some very awkward accountants in at the moment.

    - Foxpro 2.6 Error 1104 Hello Everyone, I've been searching through all of the posts here about error 1104 and can't seem to find a solution that has worked for us. First off, we are not using Terminal Services or Citrix. The apps are being run on each local machine, accessing data files on a Windows 2003 server. The network is mostly gigabit with a few of the machines still using 10/100 cards. So far we have tried the following: - Disabling antivirus on both server and workstation - Disabling all automated backups - Changed from Foxpro 2.5 to Foxpro 2.6 - Set CATMAN = OFF We have an error control program that is currently working around the problem, but it is more of a band-aid as opposed to actually fixing the problem. Whenever the 1104 occurs, the error control program logs it to an error file and then tries again. The second try has worked every time. Lately, the error occurs mostly on the SEEK command, but has occured during the USE, APPE, GO, and SKIP commands in the past. We changed one of the apps so that instead of using a CDX file, it uses an IDX file. We have not had an error with that program since then. We ran a simple disk check on the server and did not find any errors, but we have not had a chance to run a more in depth disk scan due to the number of users that are dependant on using the data. We have checked the cables and NICs, recrimped cable ends, etc and we can't seem to find any problems with any of the hardware, but we haven't ruled it out completely. If anyone has any ideas, we are open to all suggestions. Any and all ideas are welcome. Thanks, Ben Jitima bjitima@gmail.com (304) 525-3293 Tag: New VFP multi-threading example posted Tag: 223914

    - Issues with menus Hi, Running VFP 9.0, trying add a menu to my application. I have created the menu, added three pull down items, File, Reports and Help. In the File menu I put a Close option to exit the application. Here's the setup: Prompt: \<File Result: Submenu Options: Key Label: ALT+F Key Text: ALT+F Container: Left Object: None Pad Name: File Menu Level: File Prompt: \<Close Result: Bar# _mfi_quit Options: Key Label: CTRL+F4 Key Text: CTRL+F4 Skip For: .F. (I tried leaving this blank originally, same result either way.) Resource: _mfi_close (I tried _mfi_exit too, didn't work either.) Also, in the general options for the menu I turned on Top-Level Form. In the Init() of my form I have: DO menus\mainmenu.mpr WITH THIS, .F. (Tried .T. too) Form.ShowWindow = 2 - As Top-Level Form. When I run my application the menu appears like I expected except the Close option is greyed out. I can't seem to find any property settings to adjust this, any ideas? Is this the default state of a menu option and do I have to control that in code somehow at run time? All I'm trying to do at this point is be able to exit the application. The other thing I want to do is include an About item in the Help menu, what's the best way to do this and be able to display the version number of my application, not just the version of VFP? Beyond that I'll want to add some items for reports but I suspect those will be easy once I understand these first issues better.

Just recently when users install the application they have been getting the following error: programname.exe No disk in drive.

I have built the exe again with nothing in my disk drive and distributed it but the error still comes up. Of note: My project is on my E: drive but has been their for years and years and I have never seen this before but it makes me think it may be related.

    - Reading user name Hi, I'm running VFP 9.0 and I've built my installation program using Instalshield Express 5.0 and it works fine. But I'm wondering, when I install the application it prompts for User Name and Company Name, is it possible to retrieve that information from within my program? Not during the installation but during normal application use. I tried sys(0) but that returns the logged in user if I'm not mistaken. Now that I think about it, the logged in user name would probably be a better way to go but I'm still curious about the answer to my original question.

    - Strtran() not working with special characters I am using VFP9, SP1. Some text fields in a table have CTRL characters embedded at the end of the field preceded by spaces. This renders the alltrim() function useless when used prior to output. When pasted into a text file and viewed in binary they are =chr(2). I need to remove them. The at() function, however fails to detect them. When I use the following code (field=applics1): x=alltrim(applics1) x=STRTRAN(x,CHR(2),'') replace applics1 WITH ALLTRIM(x) strtran also does not detect chr(2) and the string remains unchanged. I have a workaround(kluge!) that senses the next last charater after alltrim() is used. Tag: New VFP multi-threading example posted Tag: 223837

In datafile, I have five fields, first is a character field with values in, the next four are integer fields, with values there as well. There are five records total in the table. What am I doing wrong? What should I see in the GENERAL field, the actual graph? A data string that will be used in some way to actually display the graph? Really confused on this. Right now, I'm using FP to generate a text file, that then is used by Excel to actually create the graphs I need. I'd really like to be able to generate them completely in VFP. Thanks!

Is there any way to eliminate orphans short of insisting on at least 21 times the detail band height + group header height before starting a new group?

    - Create multiple threads from VFP Create multiple threads from within your application by Calvin Hsia http://blogs.msdn.com/calvin_hsia/archive/2006/05/16/599108.aspx I've been playing with the code and I really think it's a start to giving VFP GUI apps MT capability at least the equivalent of VB6 which has some basic MT capability and is similar to VFP as far as Apartment multi-threading. Calvin's example actually blocks on the main thread so I redid it somewhat to avoid that and replaced some commands to make it backward compatible with earlier VFP versions. Not perfect but I think it's a start. This new version can be downloaded at Sedna Y: http://codegallery.gotdotnet.com/SednaY (project is called MTmyVFP)...

    - Renaming a field name I don't think this can be done in the following scenario, but then I am sure somebody here has figured it out. I need to rename a user defined field when the table is not in an exclusive mode. In the Customer table I have created some user defined fields with default names (NewField1, NewField2....). I have to allow the user to rename the field Name, Type, Width etc. Cannot open the customer table in Exclusive as there may numerous users hitting it at once. Creating a caption, comments etc on the fly for the field is a no brainier , But for reports etc rather than every time one or two of these fields are need, checking if the caption is blank with empty(field("fname","tablename",1)) will be a major PIA and a nightmare for support.

    - program location I am building a standalone ap with vfp9. I want the exe to find a set of free tables in the directory where it is run from. I know I can hard code a set of tables into the project. The exe finds them from where ever it is run. But that file set won't be where the exe expects to find them after being put in place by a program installer on a user's machine. My thought was that there would be a way for the program to tell itself where it is (like app.path in vb). I have found home() and a set of sys() functions that provide a lot of paths, but, as far as I can tell, none of them will tell the program what directory it was started from. Yes, the program can find the Windows current directory, but that won't necessarily be the same thing. Is there a way to for a vfp exe to find out where it is?

If SET REPROCESS is AUTOMATIC, it just sits there waiting for a lock. * Process 1 again: USE IN mytable2 * At this point, Process 2 should be able to continue with its edit, but it does not, not until Process 1 also unlocks mytable1.

    - System menu bar not updating My application uses the main foxpro screen as the main screen, I have customized the system menu and have mdi child windows that spawn within the main window. There is a toolbar that is docked at position 0 (top). When the child windows are maximized, the system menu bar changes properly to display the minimize, normalize and maximize icons on the far right side. Normal behaviour is for these icons to disappear if the window is normalized or minimized. I have trapped the _screen resize event with a bindevent() procedure, in which i resize multiple objects in the application including other toolbars in dock positions 1 and 3. Things still function normally when this happens. However, if i attempt to resize objects(specifically a pageframe) within the toolbar docked at position 0 in this bindevent() procedure, in the same manner as the toolbars docked at positions 1 and 3, the system menu no longer functions properly. When the child windows are minimized or normalized, the minimize, normalize and maximize icons in the system menu bar are NOT disappearing. And when they are clicked the application crashes. Another weird thing is that before I got to this point, the only way that I could resize this toolbar at all was to hide it before resizing and then show it again, otherwise the application crashed. Specifically the line of code, that if removed the system menu bar functions normally is: toolbar.pageframe.width = _screen.width. Tag: New VFP multi-threading example posted Tag: 223764

Then I set the recordsource-property of the grid new - and get a programm abort and a message, that the error can be reported to Microsoft. What is my mistake?

I've updated the VFP MT example (at http://codegallery.gotdotnet.com/SednaY)
based on Calvin's example to be sort of like .NET:
Example Use:
* t=CREATEOBJECT('testserver.thread')
* t.start(5,"do c:\MTmyVFP\MyThreadFunc WITH p2")
* && start method params:(1)#threads,(2)VFP code to MT,(3)Silent mode
* ?t.check && returns .T. if completed
* t=null && cleanup
Simple, fast, efficient - it is VFP!! And, yes, it's really
multi-threaded...
