When I use a FileListbox set its Directory property to a network path, in IDE design the proper files are listed from my network drive but during runtime the Filelistbox defaults back to path of the exe's location. This also seems to happen with most components ie. DirectoryListBox as well. I...

I use Delphi ver 2007 and wanted to know if there's any way to load a VCL form with an image1 component and flag it as non-movable in the IDE or lock it down in the form while editing. I'm duplicating an existing and rather complex paper form into a program. I add nearly 92 edit & checkbox...

I have an existing Word doc that I use. I'll give Express VCL a shot at the task. Thanks for the tip.

In short I'm trying to find the changing path of the temporary MS-Word document. This is the corresponding tmp for the open-unsaved document through Delphi. Purpose: To save the user from having to save then (attach/reopen) this doc for email. Immediately upon the form completion (before...

We have a dilemma at my work trying to record UPC data from order pickers while simultaneously recording them from an above camera. Many items appear the same so we also have a screen capturing device on the monitor, only the data is too small to view clearly from the recordings and is useless...

I fixed it.. I had to add ADOquery1.CommandTimout:=300; :)

I use Delphi 2007 and i'm sending a query that takes approximately 45-55 seconds for a result. I tested this with Query Analyzer. My ADO connection times out at 30 seconds which is the default setting no matter what I set the connection time out to be. Code Snipit...

Your not alone I have also had exactly what could be described as intermittent problems, no show stoppers but minor bugginess. The IDE would underline unknown units which would go away after compiling, and errors during the initial IDE loading were infrequent but happened. I could still get my...

Its ok now the <> was the correct syntax. Thanks harebrain & whosrdaddy. You were on track and now so am i. FYI: Delphi 2007

LVL 1 question I have two lines of code very similar 1 works fine and later changing only the operator causes it to fail. //working sql.add('update items set cost = 5 where contract = '''''); but reverse it with ('update items set cost = 5 where contract != '''''); Syntax error (missing...

Give this a try... ADOQuery1.SQl.Add('Insert into Listings (Title)'); ADOQuery1.SQL.Add('Values('+QuotedStr('Title Test')+')'); ADOQuery1.ExecSQL; or ADOQuery1.SQL.Add('Insert into Listings (Title)'); ADOQuery1.SQL.Add('Values (:X1)'); ADOQuery1.SQL.Params.ParamByName('X1').AsString:='Title...

That was it. I wrote a program that kills the print spooler and now works perfectly. Thanks so much! Tony

I'm completely new with VB2005 and this is probably obvious. I'm been learning with Visual Studio 2005 Standard and need work with the services. I've think I'm on the right path... using System.ServiceProcess But I get an error ServiceProcess is not a Class of System? Is there something I...

Have you tried adding an ActionList to the app? Actionslists will allow you to define many things including Cut/Copy/Paste. Double click the component and in the action editor create 'New Standard Action' and select TEditCopy,TEditPaste. Then on your event TNumEdit.WhenKeyDown call...

1) Right-click Tquery and Add All Fields then do this again and select NewField give it a name ie: 'RowNumber'define it's type as an Integer and select CalcField. 2) On your TQuery add an 'OnCalcFields' Event. 3) Code something similar to this.. Tquery1.FieldByName('RowNumber').AsInteger:=i...
