I have blogged about the updated VFP 9 SP2 Hotfix, which includes the missing multi-threaded. http://rickschummer.com/blog/2009/04/vfp-9-sp2-hotfix-update.html _RAS www.whitelightcomputing.com Shedding Some Light (blog) VFP MVP

It turns out that I had a bug in my code and did not have the proper test condition set up to test out the offending code. Thanks to everyone who noodled on this problem. _RAS www.whitelightcomputing.com Shedding Some Light (blog) VFP MVP

Sorry for not being clear. The problem is not the case sensativity, the problem is the arrays is not sorted at all. _RAS www.whitelightcomputing.com Shedding Some Light (blog) VFP MVP

I have the following code: SET COLLATE TO "MACHINE" ASORT(laViews,-1,-1,0,1) The reason for the SET COLLATE is to guarantee the sort order is case sensative no matter what. On my machine the information in laViews is sorted fine. On another developer's machine it is not sorted at all. At first...

I probably should have asked what type of network. I have seen this exact issue on Novell Networks where the Server just would not let go of a file. _RAS www.whitelightcomputing.com Shedding Some Light (blog) VFP MVP

I have not seen or read anything on this topic. The FPW Connectivity Kit was designed to work with ODBC of the early 1990's and MySQL is a product designed and coded to work with much more recent technology and specifications. _RAS www.whitelightcomputing.com Shedding Some Light (blog) VFP MVP

I am not sure if I am missing something obvious here. I would think you would present a form with the information the user wants in the BodyText and then a button or something in the interface to call the logic you have in this thread to send the email. Why try to popup Novell Groupwise? Is...

Who makes Calendar Control 8.0? If you are referring to the Calendar Control that ships with VFP 8, then I believe the answer is no, but until I know exactly what control I cannot provide accurate advice. _RAS www.whitelightcomputing.com Shedding Some Light (blog) VFP MVP

What does not work? Bailiing out of the loop? Is it possible there are too few records in the cursor you are SCANing? Have you checked the ON('KEY', 'DEL') in the loop after the REPORT FORM command to make sure the ReportListener being used does not remap the ON KEY LABEL? _RAS...

The error is triggered because the operating system is reporting an error reading the file. Is the file already open when the error occurs? What is the code doing when the error is thrown? Is it possible the table or index is corrupt? Which version of the ODBC driver are you using? _RAS...

Kate, By changing the graphics to JPGs you are likely changing the OLE server the files are associated with when they are stored in the General field. This might have more to do with the resolution of the problem than the file size. The JPGs will save on the storage space which is a huge bonus...

OK, so how are you storing the bitmap into the General field? What is the syntax? Are the graphic files always the same file type? What properties do you have set up on the OLE object used to display the image? _RAS www.whitelightcomputing.com Shedding Some Light (blog) VFP MVP

I have not seen this error specifically, but most OLE errors with General fields are typically related to how the data got into the General field. You see, the General field holds the data plus OLE information about the automation object it is related to. So if you have content related to a...

And here I thought I was the only person experiencing this aggravation {g}. _RAS www.whitelightcomputing.com Shedding Some Light (blog) VFP MVP

Likewise Craig, the information in your blog has been excellent. I like how you posted the techniques to access the various email technologies. Will you also be posting how to read emails and attachments? These are questions I see frequently posted on the forums. _RAS...
