Hi, I'd suggest, if possible, to contact application programmer to follow his instructions. Maybe in the applications are embbeded index recreation modules (they should) If not, you should identify the table (.dbf file) that is given the error. This may not be easy, specially if there are...

Hi Steve, I suggest you to consult the followings functions and commands in FP help file: RLOCK() SET REPROCESS SET MULTILOCKS UNLOCK There you can find abundant information and examples as well. Good luck! David.

Hi, I suspect that FP can´t find the location for temporary workspace, needed to physically place the cursor. That directory is set through TMPFILES in CONFIG.FP. If you run the SQL from the command window, and no TMPFILES is set, then is used the default start directory (most probably FP's)...

Hi, First, in the 3.11 machine, you should have an ADDRESS.PRG file. Second, in this file there is a line of code that produces an error in the NT enviroment. FP tries to show this line, but it can't. This is because the .fxp and .prg don't match (as Rick says) or because it can't find the...

Hi, You are positive sure when this routines are reached SAFETY is set OFF? David.

Hi, Queries use lot of disk space. It is very important, to improve network speed, avoiding traffic of temporal files. This means that that FP temporal directory points to the local machine. Check, in CONFIG.FP, the existence of a line like this: TMPFILES = C:\TEMP Of course, this directory...

Hi, Even when (as you were told) your DOS applications will run in any ulterior version with no code change, you will have to consider that the only sense to change is to use the new and more powerful capabilities of the new versions. What I mean is that the smallest change, that is to say...

Hi, A very similar discussion took place in this thread: thread182-171110. Hope this helps. David.

Hi, Would you tell us about the sintax of the line which produces the error? That might help. David.

Hi, To extend the concept, you have to consider BOF and EOF as "suplemental" records. It means that you have a record (BOF) before the first record and another one (EOF) after the last one. So BOF is located going TOP and issuing SKIP -1 and EOF going BOTTOM and issuing SKIP. The...

codetyko, If you are editing a memo field (yourmemofield), you don't need to store it into a variable (m.det1), unless you consider a "Cancel" buttom in Screen B. If you have only "Save" option in Screen B, just edit yourmemofield in an Editting Region. Then you can...

codetyko, I'll try to translate: "Once I made something like this through MS-DOS 25h interruption (absolute disk reading). It's not easy (you should create an Assembler program and compile it to create '.bin' file. This one is load it passing a parameter (LOAD myroutine.bin WITH...

Hi, Try SET PRINTER TO \\<machine name>\<printer name> = LPT1 before launching the report. Remember FPW only accepts 8.3 names format. Hope this helps. David.

Hi Kate, From http://www.jjtc.com/Fox/foxfiles/ you can download &quot;gp30.zip&quot;, which includes a function named &quot;N_ServTime()&quot;. According to the documentation, returns File Server Time. Good luck. Hope this helps! David.

Jorge: En alguna oportunidad hice algo así con la interrupción 25H de MS-DOS (lectura absoluta de disco). No es simple (hay que crear un programa en Assembler, y compilarlo para crear un &quot;.bin&quot;). Luego se carga pasando un parámetro (LOAD mirutina.bin WITH cadena, y el FP retorna el...
