Hi all, I'm trying to make an app that shows a label inside a scroll pane. For some reason it doesnt work. And I really dont have a clue why...im sure its simple. import java.awt.*; import java.awt.event.*; import javax.swing.*; public class MainFrame extends JFrame { BorderLayout...

hehe, I couldn't find where the libraries were after installing tomcat (uni really doesnt prepare you for using 3rd party classes, damn learning!), so I included my entire JBuilder folder...it worked. Thanks so much sedj, you have been a terrific help.

ok, this is getting frustrating (for everyone i'm sure) I'm using JBuilder, and I have included iText and jasper in my projects libraries, but now when i go to run the app i get this error: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/commons/digester/Digester at...

Thank you so much, this is exactly what i needed.

So.. I use some visual XML designer to create the desired structure. Then paste this code in my project and just use the variables where I need to. Finally I export it somehow to a pdf. Is this the idea? If so, any tips on a visual XML designer to create a good report structure? And also do I...

Ok I've read through all of the 'how to' guides, the API, as well as the faq and I still cant see how to do it. Is there some piece of information that I'm missing? As I said I have no xml experience, so some of that may go over my head. But still I would imagine I would have been able to work...

This is going to sound stupid but... How would I go about this? I've obviously missed something and I have no experience with XML so an example or two would be extremely helpful. Thanks.

Hi, I was hoping to create a program that would allow users to click lots of radio buttons, check boxes, select from combo boxes..etc. Then all this information could be exported to a report hopefully in the pdf format(Just because then they wouldn't be able to edit it, and it would be...

I have found the answer: SHAPE {SELECT DISTINCT Name FROM Table1 ORDER BY Name } AS Command2 APPEND ({SELECT Test, Score FROM Table1 WHERE (Name = ?) ORDER BY Name, Test} AS Command3 RELATE 'Name' TO PARAMETER 0) AS Command3 Thanks for all your help although i'm bound to be back.

It doesnt matter what Name fields are expanded ,i was just trying to show a possible structure when viewed on a flex grid. I want the recordset to group the distinct names as shown in the first example, when the data appears in an access database in the format shown in the second example. Thnks...

Thanks for such prompt replies But i assumed that there would be some SQL command that i could use, as i know there are SQL commands that can do anything :). Thanks again

Hi everyone. I have a problem, i have been trying to use the SHAPE provider to open a recordset like the following, it will be displayed on a heirarcharcial flex grid: (The "+" expands to show child records) NAME TEST SCORE -David Test 1 30 Test 2 31...

Hmmmm Yeh well my previous back ends have been made with Access. And even then i didnt really use access to do anything other than make up tables and fields. All the rest was done with VB. So i will need to make a VB front end? SQL doesnt have its own front end (i know this may be a really...

Hi all (im new to these parts of town) A computer technician has asked to look at a database, and see if i could create one like it (but better) in SQL. I have never used SQL before and even had trouble installing it - i have win2000 prof (and SQL server 2000 standard edition). He wants this...
