I am using VFP 7.0 and I am trying to load the vfpencryption.fll and it says that the file is 'invalid' Does it only work with some versions of VFP?

Please disregard this and Sorry. I tried the application on another machine and I did not suffer the problem.

I have a form which starts my app. From that form I call a custom menu which opens forms within that initial (master) form. When I click on a menu item, the respective form opens properly in the 'top level' initial form. While one is opened I can click (on the menu bar) and open another form...

I hope someone else can benefit from this. You have to use MySQL's SQL syntax correctly. And you need to use the ? to pass variables from application side to Server in SQL Pass Through. m.xDate = xDate m.xCode = xCode NumRows = SQLEXEC(myConnection, "INSERT INTO mydata (date,code)...

I know I am late on this one but I succeeded in disabling the Word Toolbars leaving only those i want. But the change also affects the appearance of word the next time I open it the normal way. Seems like my change finds its way in Normal.dot. Which that there was a way to point the changes...

But Mike, I am using forms with Private Datasessions and have been having each instance to open and close its own server connection, would you consider that to be too much overhead? Just asking, I am new to this.

I literally spent the weekend searching for a solution to this problem. I have a LONGBLOB field in MySQL which is being populated from a MEMO (Binary) VFP 7.0 field. So when I do an INSERT into MySQL the data in the MEMO (Binary) field finds itself in the MySQL LONGBLOB field correctly...

Sorry Andrei. Mike is correct. I am in your shoes as well, and I am taking it to a higher level. For my part, I am moving from VFP to MYSQL and I am redoing my queries and data access codes to be easily adaptable to changing backends. Hence, I am a public variable pcRDBMS which informs my...

Hey, I have realized that the connection string for MySQL ODBC Driver 3.51 is different from those of previous drivers. I think that may be your problem. For Example 2.50 takes user passwords as PWD=yourpassword and 3.51 takes it as PASSWORD=yourpassword. Check out this site...

Mike Lewis, Could that not be achieved creating a connection with the SQLSTRINGCONNECT() each time a set of records is required or an operation has to be performed on the server? I am contemplating using this method as I am moving to MySql.

I was advised to move away from .dbf as a backend data store as it is not very secure. Anyone can do an ODBC FROM MS access and make unauthorized updates. Hence I moved to MySql, which is free. I was then faced with the problem of upsizing my my .dbc and found that the Upsizing wizard in VFP...

Thanks Guys, I succeeded in creating an EXE that runs the VBscript. My Trouble now is to Encode the Script. I can't get it to be 'baked' in the EXE that I have created in C++. Neither can I get a nice icon for my created C++ EXE. I will forego this in the mean time.

I used "wscript.exe" instead of "cscript.exe" and it worked. My only troubles are: 1. The install.vbs file is not 'baked' into the .EXE generated file. 2. I cannot find a way to associate an icon with the .EXE generated. It the old DOS .EXE icons.

I am making some progress. I precursored the "install.vbs" with "cscript.exe" and it worked. The trouble is the windows black box comes along with the scripts results when I do the Execute EXE in C++. However, when I run the EXE from windows I just see a flash of a black box. Well I still...
