    Get date question

    Jim, probably not. I haven't been in this code for along time. (Probably why I'm rusty at Clipper.) It was exhibiting some peculiar behavior so I'm going to leave Century On entirely for a while. Will probably turn it all off later and leave it that way. Thanks, -Keith

    Get date question

    Griff, thanks for your promptings. Problem found. I have 25 'Get's before the 'Read' is invoked. Down towards the bottom of the getlist there is a 'Set Century Off' statement. When I removed this my initial Date 'Get' worked fine. Moral of the story is you can't mix 'Set Century' in the middle...

    Get date question

    Griff, thanks for the response, your example runs perfectly. In my code I already had 'Set Century On' so I added 'Set Date American' (even though this is the default). Again the initial date displays perfectly (99/99/9999), but when the Get receives focus it displays the date in the...

    Get date question

    I am prompting the user to input a date with a 4-digit year. I have 'Set Century On' and my statement looks like the following: @4,0 Say "Date of Service" Get tDOS Picture "99/99/9999" However when the Get receives focus it prompts for the date with a 2-digit year, i.e. "99/99/99" I thought...

    RTLINK cannont find .LNK script file

    Hey guys, Thanks so much for the responses. Griff and TonHu I did not realize .lnk was only a convention, but will definitely be using the .lk5 extension from now on. I was able to get around this the other night, but the solution was incredibly dirty. I went into the registry and eliminated...

    RTLINK cannont find .LNK script file

    Just wanted to add this used to work fine, but something has changed. I think when windows cleans up unused shortcuts in can remove an old RTLINK script file too, as I had to find my script file on an old system, because it had disappeared on the development box.

    RTLINK cannont find .LNK script file

    Seems like this forum is all but dead, but I'll post this anyway. After several years of being away from clipper, I'm back to supporting an old app. My problem is RTLINK cannot find my link script file, even though I'm compiling out of the same directory. The compiler finds all the files and...

    Upgrade problem 5.3 -> 5.3a

    TonHu, Thanks for the reply. I have tried updating with both versions and unfortunately neither one worked. -Keith

    Upgrade problem 5.3 -> 5.3a

    I am attempting to upgrade(patch) clipper from 5.3 to 5.3a without success. When I view the PATCH.LOG file almost all the files have the following error: 'wpt0036: Old file was not found. However, a file of the same name was found.' The install program is obviously seeing each file but...

    Problem with dataTable fill

    Jim: Thanks for the tip. Yes, I had create a new stored procedure and remove all OUTPUT parameters. This allowed the fill to work correctly. Once again, thanks for your help. Keith

    Problem with dataTable fill

    OK, my suspicions were confirmed from my previous post. My stored procedure with the declared 'OUTPUT' parms made the datatable require input parameters, even for the 'OUTPUT' parameters. I don't know if you experienced .NET developers would call this a bug, but it's certainly an anomaly in my...

    Problem with dataTable fill

    OK, the light is beginning to come on, except the tableadapter is is wanting me to declare parms for the output columns of the stored procedure. (I have only one input parm.) Declaring these are the only way to resolve all the program errors. The 'output' data should fill the 'yourdatatable'...

    Problem with dataTable fill

    jbenson001: Thanks for the response. I'm using VS2005 to generate a WinForms app, sorry no ASP. Here's the code giving me a problem, it's so simple I don't see anything wrong, unless VS isn't doing what I think it's doing. Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As...

    Problem with dataTable fill

    I have built a report and am trying to fill the dataTable with a stored procedure. I am receiving a similar message for each column I'm returning to the dataTable: "Argument not specified for 'parm_Active' of 'Public Overridable Overloads Function Fill(dataTable as...

    Add fields in single row

    r937: Thanks for the feedback on this. I found the problem, even before the good advice, but since I was struggling with unfamiliar syntax as well, I think my brain became garbled. Thanks again. Keith
