    Dual-core processor slowing Paradox??

    I have a new workstation (Sony Dual-core - 1 gig of ram, XP Pro) that is significantly slower than all our other systems. There is a delay when arrowing between records and a general sluggishness. I re-installed Paradox 8 and then tried 9 without any improvements. I copied the CFG file from a...

    Create and email a PDF from ObjectPal

    I am trying to automate the process of printing a PDF file for a quote and emailing it to a customer. I figured out how to do the mail portion, but I would like to create the PDF behind the scenes and add it as an attachment to the message. I have seen posts on sending keystrokes for PDF...

    Record text vanishes

    Paradox is behaving very strangely for one user at our company. I have a summary form that lists some tables generated in the private directory. When he moves his mouse over the records they disappear! I run the same form on my computer and it works fine. We are running windows XP Pro and...

    Moving to top of tableframe after edit

    I have a tableframe that I am editing (adding/changing records) with objectpal. The table is keyed and if I add a record that flys away to the top of the tableframe, the only way I can see it is if I manually use the vertical scroll bar with the mouse. I have tried various combinations of...

    Paradox 7 - very slow switch from form run to edit

    I am using Paradox 7 and am becoming irritated with the amount of time it takes when I switch between viewing a form and editing it. It isn't a problem if I don't have any objectPal code windows open, but if I do it may take as long as a minute to switch to edit mode. It doesn't seem to matter...

    Date range using setGenFilter

    I am having trouble using setGenFilter with date ranges. I have a TCursor opened on a table and am using setGenFilter to limit the view of the TCursor. I have searched through manuals and this site, but haven't found a solution. Any suggestions? Also, thank you to the people who responded to my...

    Printing problem in Paradox 8

    I want to be able to print out a report on a laser printer and then print out labels on a label printer when the user clicks on one button. I have tried all of the object pal code that I can think of to internally switch the printers (printerSetCurrent..) but it is not working. Is there a trick...
