    RTLINK cannont find .LNK script file

    Seems like this forum is all but dead, but I'll post this anyway. After several years of being away from clipper, I'm back to supporting an old app. My problem is RTLINK cannot find my link script file, even though I'm compiling out of the same directory. The compiler finds all the files and...

    Treeview won't release focus

    I have a treeview control that won't programatically pass the focus to a textbox. After the user drills down to the appropriate level in the treeview (I do an edit here to ensure they're at the right level) I enable a groupbox which contains 2 textboxes. I then change to focus to the textbox...

    Treeview lock

    I need some help here. I want to take a treeview object and programatically select a node, 4 nodes deep in the tree and then expand the node at that level.

I created a bootdisk off another W98SE system and the disk works fine on other computers. However, when I boot the Compaq from it I can see the drive letter but cannot access any...

    I need a simple way to write a print job to disk. I'm running Clipper 5.01a under Windows 2000. We use the NET USE command under W2K to redirect print output to various printers on the network. I thought there might be a way to use NET USE to redirect output to a file, but at this point I...

    Text filename selection

    I'm trying to prompt the user to select a text filename--similar to what most applications do with the File|Open function, thus allowing users to drill down and select the appropriate file. The trouble is I'm such a newbie to VFP that I'm struggling with how to do this. I've got years of...
