I am using FP9 and developing a web application. If I have a text field, how can I turn the data in that text field into a hyperlink progammatically using FP code? Thanks. Tony Scarpelli Clinical Engineering Dept. Maine Medical Center Portland, Maine 04102

I am using VS2008 VB.Net and developing a web application. If I have a text field, how can I turn the data in that text field into a hyperlink progammatically using Visual Basic? Thanks. Tony Scarpelli Clinical Engineering Dept. Maine Medical Center Portland, Maine 04102

I am using Visual Basic 2008 and SQL Server 2005. In a web page, my users are going to enter an equipment ID number. The program will search a table and come up with the name of a Word document from the table. For example: Tag #: 12345 | Pm123.doc The program will then display the document...

I found the problem. It was like a duh moment. Does anyone else have these? <g> I was thinking about the question that JonathanMortimer presented and that I responded to. I opened my Web Designer program and opened the page in FireFox. I clicked on the button link to my .pdf. file and FireFox...

Thanks for the answers. Sorry for taking so long to respond, my ISP, Roadrunner, wanted us to move our web sites, and I had to figure out why my son's web site wasn't working, what a poor support system they have for this. Anyway, linney, I looked at the multimedia section of IE 8 and...

I am in the process of creating and testing a web site. One of my links is to a .PDF file that contains music and sounds embedded in it. If I use FireFox the music plays fine, but if I use IE 6 or 7 the music doesn't play. Is there a setting in IE that prevents music from playing? Any ideas...

I have yet, in all my time as a programmer, found an application generator that works. Some come close, even the ones that cost $700, but every time you generate a project there is always tweaks to be made, and you could never understand it. Very frustrating. Of course I can go back and do the...

I added the /libs directory path to the search path and it found the class. My question is, shouldn't the application generator have taken care of things like this? Or, at least, the instructions in the walkthrough should have. Oh, well, on to the next bug. Thanks. CU Tony Scarpelli...

I was going through the Walkthrough: Creating Applications with Visual FoxPro. When I got to the build part and built the myapplication.app and tried to run it I get two error messages: File 'e:\myApp\myapplication_app.vcx' does not exist and File not found, or unavailable. It may be in...

I was just reading yesterday, in the paper "Visual FoxPro 9.0 Report Writer In Action" that "_REPORTBUILDER" can be set in Config.fpw. Also, I think you're right about the error message. The message is wrong. It could be finding the _REPORTBUILDER system variable, but not the...

As I mention in my main question, in my Main.prg I set '_REPORTBUILDER = ""', and when I run the report I am getting an error that it can't find "_REPORTBUILDER". I then moved '_REPORTBUILDER = ""' to the form that calls the report and still got the same error. I've been noticing that the...

<<"There may be many ways to skin a cat, but there are very few right ways to do it." ;) >> Well, you start with a dead cat... <g> Actually I'm one of four FoxPro Programmers in this 600 bed hospital. One is a doctor for the Outpatient department, one is the manager of our Emergency...

Right. This is a mixed report application and on some of my reports, I'm getting an error, when I run the report, asking where _REPORTBUILDER is at. Why would it be asking that question on the new reports and not on the older reports? Thanks. Tony Scarpelli Clinical Engineering Dept. Maine...

I have two tables, one with equipment information with an ID, and one with dated procedures in it related to the ID of the other table. There are multiple rows (2 to 4) for an ID, and with a date field. I need to choose one of the rows based on the earliest date. I.E. ID Date 1234...

Some of my reports are using old FoxPro 2.6 reports that I don't want to change and I want to use the old report builder for other reports. By setting it to nothing, the app uses the old builder. Tony Scarpelli Clinical Engineering Dept. Maine Medical Center Portland, Maine 04102
