save / restore user settings

Hi,

Is there an easy way to save and restore
"lay-out"-properties
that a user has changed upon opening and closing a form.
for example : grid.columns.width,
form.height/width/top/left.
I could make my own one but this probable already exist
so if somebody....you know...


thanks in advance
christophe

Christophe,
"Easy"? Check the UT (http://www.universalthread.com/) for a class. Of =
course you'll have to decide whether you want to keep this information =
in a table, the local registry, .INI file, etc.

Thanks Rick

Do also have a name to make searching a bit easier.
I "only" found it for a form.

I think/afraid I have to go the "not easy"- way

I wrote an article for FoxPro Advisor on this very subject
in August, 1999. Basically it is a set of base classes
that can remember, for each user, how the user left them
the last time they were used. It's up to you which settings
in each instance of a control are "remembered." All the
grid settings you mention would not be a problem.

I think I still have my example files (the base classes)
here somewhere. If you're interested, I could email them
to you.
