    Ghostscript PDF printer not working in 2008

    We have used Ghostscript PDF printer for years on Server 2003 but when we recently migrated to 2008 I cannot get it to work. No matter what I do I get an error. I have a feeling it has something to do with security or permissions. Does anyone have any experience with this? Thanks!

    Windows 7 Deletes my Programs

    I am a VFP9 user and recently upgrades to Windows 7. Everything worked fine for about 3-4 months (I was worried that it wouldn't work well under 64bit but it seemed to do fine). All of a sudden, most every time I either try to compile or save a program, I get a 'file access is denied' error...

    Save table as fixed length file?

    Seems like a simple question, but for some reason can't find an answer here. Is it possible to save a simple Foxpro table as a fixed length data file? Is so, what are the steps to do so? Thanks in advance for your time!

    Different Colors in Report Fields?

    When printing a VFP report, does anyone know if it is possible to print some fields a different color depending on the value of other fields in the table record? If so, can you tell me how to do it? Thanks in advance.

    Need total of fields, but number of fields vary

    This one may be a little hard to explain but please bear with me. For each account, I have a table that contains the fields (for example) tot1, tot2, tot3, etc. I also have a field called grand_tot, which is the sum of all these other fields. To get grand_tot, I put "tot1+tot2tot3...." in my...

    ie8 doesn't open links with the "_blank" target

    There is a known problem (according to many posts on the web) but I still cannot find a solution. IE8 doesn't open links that are trying to be forced to a new page ("_blank"). They open fine on top of the existing page if nothing is specified. This doesn't happen in previous versions of...

    importing records - field length problem

    Surely there has been some advice written on this topic but I cannot find it. I need to import a large number of data files from other databases (not foxpro). As you know, the field lengths are usually alot longer than what Foxpro allows. If you just import it like it is, you often get...

    Links not working in Firefox

    I have webpages that are created dynamically by scripts; many have URLs which are very long and complicated. Recently I noticed that when I put a regular link (http://www.anypage.com) into the page, Firefox appends the URL of the current page on to the link, making it bad. Does anyone know...

    Check to see if table is open?

    Surely there must be a thread here somewhere on this, but I have racked my brain for a couple of hours looking so I will just ask: I'm getting errors related to "file is opened by another user" and the program crashes. I need to find out if the table is open before I even try to do the...

    How do I compare 2 tables for subtle differences?

    I have 2 large tables with the same field names, structure, etc. One table may have some subtle differences in some of the data from the other one. What would be the best (quickest) way to find the records in the second table that are different from the first table? Thanks!

    Iframe link not working in Safari

    This isn’t easy to explain but here it goes… I have a site that is basically comprised of two regular frames – named ‘header’ and ‘content’. The main content of the website is in ‘content’. I usually target everything to ‘content’ and it works fine. I now have an inline frame inside...

    Query on certain field names?

    Should be easy but.... Can anyone tell me how to query on field names that begin with a certain character (in the field name). For instance: query all records with field names that begin with "f" that contain data (are not empty). Thanks.

    Making query faster?

    I have a stupid question but I'll ask it anyway because I need my query to be faster. I know to make a query faster you need to add indexes. I am not creating the tables on the fly so, does that just mean that I can add an index to the file being queried or is there actually something you...

    How do you strip the "Trademark" sign?

    I need to automatically strip the "trademark" sign off a string of data because its causing my javascript to malfunction. It is the little "TM" that appears a little higher than the rest of the text in HTML. Isn't there a code that represents the sign that you can search, then remove from...

    I have been using VFP9 for a long time and this is the first time this has happened. When I access a program file with the debugger or open a table, I get an error message saying "Invalid Path or Filename". Program files seem to run fine on their own. I tried to re-install VFP and run a...
