    Need to move pixs in FoxProMac 2.6a into FPWin 2.6

    Hmmm....but if just storing the link in a memo field, can that actual image be displayed on the face of a form, and can they click open the memo field from the browse and get the image itself, not the link? That's for FoxPro Windows 2.6A, not VFP John

    Need to move pixs in FoxProMac 2.6a into FPWin 2.6

    Dave, thanks for responding. The pictures are digital photos of industrial parts. I just sent a note to the client to see if a PC version of the program they are using with the camera is available (it almost certainly is.) If we can get that PC version of the camera software and install it on...

    VFP -> post data to CGIscript to pre-populate a form

    Bill...I am going to ask for a little more. I have to preface this with the fact that I am a very un-experienced VFP programmer, and I can't grasp exactly how to construct the entire process of posting according to your suggestion. For instance, I don' understand where the program would list or...

    VFP -> post data to CGIscript to pre-populate a form

    I've got to use post...the three simple fields in my example are just for testing...much more will actually be passed. I am reading and attempting to absorb the rest of your reply about POST. Thank you. John

    CGI creating HTML with form: Default "Values"?

    A normal HTML page with form post to a the CGI script below, which in turn generates a page. How do I default data into the value= of the form-to-be generated?

    VFP6 -- Post to script on web server?

    baltman, your reference is interesting and I learned a few things reading it, but am too thick to grasp how I would attack my problem using your solution. wgcs, that's a great FAQ, I'm sorry I missed it in my initial search. I was using the wrong key words, CGI, etc. Now to dig into 184-4359...
