Good thought ... but I was actually running it from the EXE on the network on both machines ( to avoid that kind of potential issue ). Also, the record was not marked as deleted. Some VFP config option also wouldn't explain why it was resolved by simply copying the data to my hard drive and...

Has anyone experienced this? Any suggestions? Suddenly today, one of our users went to a screen where there is a linked record, which showed up blank. I look up the same person ( in the same database ) on one of my PCs and they show up. I look on my other PC and they do not. So, then I...

Thanks for the suggestion, Mike. I realize I could strip out the carriage returns, but I'd prefer a way to allow the carriage returns to show up in the Word mail merge. The field is a notes-like free form text field, which needs to preserve the formatting it was entered with. I could use...

Has anyone ran into this before? Any suggestions? We have word mail merge documents to pull from VFP tables. I found a weird bug with Word 97 where it will CENTER a merge field ( although alignment is left ) if there is a carriage return in the data. Taking out the carriage return makes it...

Thanks for the help - guess I'll file this in the "gremlin" category. I referred her to our help desk as I'm "just" a programmer here ... I'm not sure whether she'll follow up. It's the kind of thing that makes you scratch your head ( especially since it started happening spontaneously ).

Geoff, I even tried assigning those noises to the "(none)" option, as well as having all sound muted and it was still beeping!

Yep, I just re-realized the default is to beep, but the weird thing is that muting doesn't prevent it! The speaker is just the PC speaker that came with the box, I assume. This behavior just started happening today ( didn't happen yesterday ). The only thing I can imagine changing is if the...

I tried using Tweak UI on my PC, and it didn't stop the beep when my volume was not muted, so I'm thinking it won't help if she gets it when it IS muted? It is the PC Speaker that's beeping. This behavior just started happening today. I haven't the vaguest idea what would have changed...

One of our users is getting the annoying "BEEP" when a messagebox is displayed, dispite having turned her sound to MUTE! I even tried setting all of her notification sounds to (none) and still get the beep. Any idea what would override the mute? When I mute my computer, I don't get the beep.

This is more of a windows issue, I'm thinking, but I thought I'd ask here because it's happening in a FoxPro application. One of our users is suddenly getting a BEEP when a MESSAGEBOX() comes up. This is not functionality built into the app. I run the same EXE from my workstation and get no...

Thanks - I've almost got it... however my columns now lose their controlsource ( the table is not in the order of the columns on the grid ). Do you know of an easy fix for that or should I loop through before and after and reset them? Thanks again! Jason

Has anyone come across a solution for this type of issue? I created a lookup/record select form that goes against a remote Oracle Database, basically listing members. I have the underlying cursor begin empty, then when they enter the criteria they are looking for, I dynamically build a WHERE...

Thanks for the discussion. As Olaf mentioned, the behavior I was hoping for was the "intermediate results" sorting. It seems like something that should be possible. I just want a record-select screen to come up FAST, have the results returning asynchronously, and let the user sort/lookup as...

I did try your suggestion, which had similar results to using the nodataonload. It does create the indexes on the empty table. However, once you requery, it goes into synchronous-like behavior ( similar to if you issue a GO BOTTOM on an Asynch cursor ). I'm trying to brainstorm about a...

Just curious if anyone had a solution for this??? I have data classes that uses asynch fetching from an Oracle backend. One feature of our record select screens is creating indexes on the cursor to allow the users to sort by various fields and lookup values. However, when you try to create an...
