Thanks for the follow-up, Rick. I appreciate it.
I figured I was limited in what I could control but was hoping for some nugget of info that maybe I'd overlooked. Will just have to delve into it deeper. ;-)
Take care.
Thanks Rick. That's what I've kind of figured. I have looked at the tree view.
If I were going to do this, how do I intercept the call to the File...Open dialog when a user clicks the Insert OLE/Image button and brings up the dialog to set the file name? If I can intercept that, I can do...
In our application, we allow the users to customize reports where we fire up MODIFY REPORT <filename.frx> and the users can add fields, insert logos, etc.
When they go to locate an image file, we'd like to limit what folders/files are visible to them. Is it possible to replace the "File Open"...
All,
In earlier versions of FP, if a user was modifying a report, the "Report Layout" menu item was available so that they could adjust some things for their particular printer.
We have a situation where we need access to that capability in our application BUT MS moved the access...
Thanks spayne,
Appreciate the quick reply. Yeah, I can do that but what I was hoping to do was to not have to 'roll my own' file and directory access module but it sounds like I may have to. I'm part way there with the tree control and populating it but was trying to find something a little...
All,
When using the GetFile function in VFP, the Windows dialog is presented to allow someone to choose a file. In addition, one can right-click and choose to open/edit any displayed file.
Is there a way to make the GetFile a "Read only" process such that the ONLY thing the user can...
Actually that's not correct!
Here's a way to give it a try.
Create a program file and paste the following in. Then run it.
------- BEGIN PROGRAM CODE
local m.pkid, m.mytitle, ls_Order, ls_SortOrder
create table foo (pkid C(4), mytitle C(50))
sele foo
m.pkid = "0002"
m.mytitle =...
Thanks Ramani,
I understand what you're saying. But my select statement is only pulling field1 and I want to keep the order that is set in the source table. However, without using any ORDER clause, the field1 records are SELECTed into the cursor in RECNO() order and not in the order that is...
...TITLE
0001 Class 4
0002 Class 2
0003 Class 3
If I order ascending on TITLE, the PKIDs are sorted as:
0002
0003
0001
I want to select *just* the PKIDs AND keep them in the order they are in when the table is ordered by title.
However, every select I do always reorders them in the...
All,
I have a VFP executable that I'd lilke to be able to launch from within a different VFP EXE. Once I've launched, I'd like to be able to access/call one of the forms that's in the 1st EXE and have the user interact with that form. And then when they are done, return them to the original...
Mike,
Thanks for the reply. Yes, I only have two images. I got so wrapped around trying to find a way to use a setting or something on a standard grid, it didn't even click to create my own objects. I've done that for other things in the grid and this is the right answer. Thanks much for...
All,
I've got a grid that I'd like to have one image displayed if the record/field value is True while I'd like a different one displayed if the record/field value is False.
When I try to use an IIF() in the Picture property of the image object, I get errors (depending if I preceed the IIF...
In the words or the famous Homer, "DOH!" Yes, Simpson not of the Iliad & Odyssey fame. ;-)
Ding Ding that makes sense. Thanks for 'setting me straight'. ;-)
Thanks for all of the suggestions. I figured there was a mathematical calculation for the conversion and was hoping someone else had already done that. Thanks much!!!!
Thanks also for the code snippets. When looking at the on-line help it shows cColor (or something similar) for the...
I have a grid and want the users to be able to set the dynamic fore and back color. I can get the color dialog box (GETCOLOR()) but it returns a single numeric value while the dynamic requires the character string in RGB format.
I know I can take the RGB() and convert the 3 individual values...
All,
I have a database container with some remote views pointing to an Oracle database. I have the DSN entry in the ODBC driver with the appropriate information. When I try and connect using the database container to create/modify the remote views, it just hangs. Never completes the...
All,
Let's say I have a "class" that has custom methods with my own code. When I am looking in a subclass object, is there any way I can see what the code is in the parent class? A couple of years ago, Powerbuilder had a nice feature that one could view the parent class' code but I...
