    How to use buffering with security of file locking

    Thanks Olaf. I am still fairly new to VFP so please excuse my basic question. So if I used the rlock() to lock the customer record, is there any conflict with still using buffering,4 on this table? Thanks Sue

    How to use buffering with security of file locking

    I am currently using (buffering,5) for a pageframe consisting of 3 pages: - page 1 and 2 show a single record, but page 3 is the many table. The application was originally written in 2.6 using rlock() and the user was informed immediately they tried to display a customer that someone else was...

    Need to set focus after Data bound calendar

    I have a grid that displays 3 fields, start date, end date and number of days. For each record, the full booking information, including these 3 fields are displayed in the lower part of the same form. I have used the monthview data bound calendar, as described in the solutions examples, as a...

    Combobox for large volume of records

    Thanks again everyone. The auto-complete solved the breed and colour drop-downs. I will still need to use some form of a grid for the Vet + Vet phone number as this is the only combination that does require both columns to display and be updated. Thanks for your suggestion Olaf on this. Sue

    Combobox for large volume of records

    Hi Mike, Thanks again for your assistance and I do appreciate all the help from the other experts as well. As I am still fairly new to VFP9, I am open to all different solutions. The articles I mentioned were prior to VFP9. I have just tried the auto-complete and it is so easy. I have one...

    Combobox for large volume of records

    Thanks Mike. I haven't used the auto-complete so will look into this and give it a go. I was under the impression from some of the articles that I have been reading, that a special combo/grid combination was the way to go with large volumes, but the auto-complete sounds good. Mind you most of...

    Activate Menu Option on Application Startup

    Hi Mike and Olaf, All works now once I took out the Do loop for the Read Events, placed the Activate code after the menu call and relocated the cleanup code to the form with the grid. Thanks again for all your assistance. Sue

    Activate Menu Option on Application Startup

    Thank you all so much. I agree the users need to be educated in the Windows based apps, but it is a slow progress. They only started using a mouse when the internet was connected in July this year. The original 2.6 app I wrote 15 years ago for them was all keyboard based. Mike and Olaf...

    Activate Menu Option on Application Startup

    Hi Mike, The users have requested that the first menu option be selected as it used to be in their old 2.6 app. They are not used to using the mouse hence why I have had to place a lot of Hotkeys into the app. Sorry for my ignorance, but would you place the active popup in the Menu setup proc...

    Activate Menu Option on Application Startup

    Hi, Can someone please help with using a keyboard{}action to select a menu option, both at startup and when my forms are released. When my application starts, my custom menu is shown, but it is greyed out. In the menu setup procedure I have the code keyboard '{CTRL + B}' and this menu...

    Using a grid as an input screen

    Hi Olaf, I found the problem was in my DE on the form with the pageframe. Once I set the relationship in code, it worked. Thanks again Sue

    Using a grid as an input screen

    Hi Olaf, I set the grid properties as the solutions indicated, and I still get the other records appearing. When I place this grid on a single form, these settings work, so is there a problem perhaps with having the grid within a pageframe? thanks sue
