If anyone's interested - I didn't figure out how to use "Rotate" to produce a landscape page. Instead, I used the MediaBox parameter, and set it to [0 0 792 612]. This seems to work fine.

Hi- Does anyone have experience using PDF::Create? I'm trying to create a landscape view PDF, and can't figure out how to use the "Rotate" method for new_page. I've tried a variety of syntax, including: 'Rotate' => 90 'Rotate' => [90] 'Rotate' => '90' I keep getting an error: "Can't use...

Hi- Does anyone know if there's a way to add a sub report to a report at runtime, in the OnFormat event of a section of a report? My problem is this: I have a table containing many projects from different years. Some of these projects are continuations of each other through years. For...

OK, it was a permissions problem with creating the document. I had to change the group of the directory to www, and it worked right away! Thanks for talking me off the ledge, sleipnir. -emily

Yup. Does this script have to be *owned* by the apache user as well (not just in the group)?

The php page has a button, and when the button is pressed the perl script is supposed to execute & produce this text file. When I try virtual("my_script.pl") clicking the button causes the text of the script to appear in the browser. When I try exec("my_script.pl")...

How exactly does one use virtual() to execute a perl script? I've been trying to get virtual() and/or exec() to run a perl script, that simply creates a .csv file, and have had no luck. The script runs when I call it from the shell. I'm using linux/apache.

Thanks! that worked great

Hi - I searched around this forum & wasn't able to find what I was looking for. I am writing a script that loops through a variable number of Users who answer a survey & creates hashes for each of the Users that holds how they answered each question. I want to have hash names like %user1...

Hi- I have mySQL running on a linux machine, with several databases in it. One of the databases is very huge, it's updated with thousands of rows daily, and it can fairly easily be re-populated if soemthing were to happen to it. Another database is pretty small, and I want to be able to keep a...

Never mind- I figured it out. I created a subroutine on the form that I wanted to refresh (with your code as the body of the subroutine), and then called the sub from the other form. It works great - Thanks!!!!!

Can you use this to refresh a form other than the one that the code is running from?

Is there a way to refresh the contents of a form, but remain focused on the current record? Or is there a form function where you can jump to a particular record (i.e. saving the record id, refreshing, then jumping back to that record)? I'm using Access 2000.

That's it. Thanks!!!!!!

The file is executable and I have a cd command in the first line. An import thing I forgot to mention - I am writing the scripts on my windows machine and then uploading them to the unix machine. Is there something I need to do because of that?
