Thanks both, the advice was useful. As commented, if this was to be written anew, then using Browse would not be part of the solution!

I have been asked to make a "useability" change to a VFP 6.0 program. this consists of a form whoch calls another program thet has a "DO Form" in it. The second form itself runs the following code: SELECT ordrdata SET ORDER TO TAG recnum GO TOP BROWSE NORMAL NOWAIT NODELETE NOEDIT NOAPPEND SAVE...

I have been asked to change a program used in Foxpro 6.0 but clearly written in an earlier version. It contains the following code which displays some fields from a table, and allows one field (goods_in) only to be edited. I need to make the cost_price editable as well, but it seems I cannot use...

Thanks all - I've got things working.

Thanks for the (very rapid) help. Unfortunately, I don't have VFP7 so I can's use Getwordnum, but I can find the first "word" using AT and the rest of the code will then enable me to isolate alpha and numeric parts of the postcode. Thanks again!

I have a need to process a postcode value passed to a form. The postcode should be in two parts, the first being the "region" and the second the precise location, e.g. B97 5UX. I am checking that a space exists, in order to identify where the first part of the postcode ends. My problem...

Silly me. The Foxpor form looks for it's data on G: and so I'd mapped G: to the directory containing the tables. The directory wasn't however defined as sharable to XP.

I've seen a few posts about this message but none seem to fit. I have a simple VFP6 form which Seeks a record in a free table (USEd Shared) and having found it, attempts to replace the value of a few fields. This all worked before my hard disk failed - having reinstalled everything I now can't...

This is obviously going to be really simple but... Whenever I start VFP v6, it starts in the same position and size, not full-screen. How do I get VFP to be full-screen when I launch it?

No, the values are not at all large and all fit quite comfatably within the Grid. I'm puzzled that it seems to be column 8 only that behaves like this.

Oh, another thing, the Interactivechange event is not firing for column 8.

I have a 9-column grid, and have a problem when changing the value in column 8. When I do this, column 1 disappears, i.e. it seems to have slid off to the left! This is not a scroll issue - I have both scroll bars operational, and the column has just gone! I can find no apparent reason for...

I've subclassed Checkbox to create class "Mycheck", in order to add an Interactivechange. I've then used addobject in my form to add Mycheck in a grid column, removing the Text1 object that is there by default. I set the Sparse and CurrentControl settings as usual. However, when I run...

I have defined a grid on a form ,and want to be able to set the InteractiveChange method from within the form, but cannot because this is read-only. I want to do this because I am adding a checkbox to a grid column programatically and need to set this method. I could define a new checkbox...

More info - I've recreated the form in ordre to start wiht a clean slate, and just added the listboxes, and the Data Environment of linked tables. I can Alt-Tab to another app. and bcak again, without a problem. The problem occurs when I double-click on a memo field in one of the Table2 listbox...
