    Frustrated with our VFP program under Vista

    We've been tearing our hair out over this one. Because we are a VFP9 shop, I hope that this is the appropriate forum for posting this one, even though the problem is only with clients running Vista. Our distributed multi-user package has an Auto-Update feature that allows downloading and/or...

    What sequence when clicking Windows "X" to quit ?

    Could somebody please let me know exactly what happens when you click the upper-right Windows "X" box to quit the top-level EXE, as opposed to clicking the VFP-form button defined as the CANCEL button. I have a situation with the main EXE able to load forms (modal and/or modeless) and/or EXEs...

    Is there any way to do this with 2 FRXs ?

    I have implemented a set of daily / weekly / monthly Calendar reports to our Calendar system that we are incorporating into our main system. These 3 reports are the same style as the daily / weekly / monthly Calendar reports from MS-Outlook Calendar (including the upper-right displays of...

    Can you make an undocked toolbar NOT closable?

    I have designed and implemented a VFP toolbar into a test system, including a popup on one of the button pairs (as in the VFP ... Samples...Sedona\newtbars.vcx). Everything appears to work well both docked and undocked, except I have one concern. I don't want this toolbar to be able to be...

    Can anybody help me with this one. On a standard form, I have a label that I dynamically change & refresh the .Caption value depending on some selected criteria from a multi-selection grid. The .Caption value will be a comma-delimited character string of abbreviated codes - typically 2-3...

    Need help with BUILD EXE or Build Method

    I am refining an in-house Source Control system that I designed and have used in our development department for a few years now. I am adding a method to the main form that will extract the PJX names that use any SCXs, PRGs, VCXs, etc. that have been revised since the last recompile of any...

    Strange Print Preview behavior in VFP9

    Since upgrading our distributed software to VFP9 (from VFP8), we are seeing a frequent strange behavior in the Print Preview in many of our viewable reports. For a split-second, before the actual Report is previewed on the screen, there is a flash of one of the screen objects selection boxes on...

    Occasional loss of data on Printed report...

    Has anyone experienced this problem in VFP9? Since updating to VFP9, a small handful of our clients show that a few of our reports will sometimes lose some data (usually full pages) when printed. The PRINT PREVIEW is always complete on-screen, but these few printed examples will sometimes have...

    Procs used from cache

    Can anybody give a little more explanation on VFP's execution of procedures/functions from previously-used copies in cache as opposed to reloading the <procname> with each "SET PROC TO <procname>". For example, in a system with 200 SCXs spread across 30 EXEs that are connected via a master menu...

    Simple (?) question re Listbox repositioning

    Maybe I can't see the forest for the trees, but I got myself lost working on this problem. In a 'User-access-rights' portion of a password-management form, I have a page on a pageframe that has 2 listboxes; the left one is initially populated with all available accessible forms, and the right...

    How to get printout of Report Designer ?

    Is there any way to send the Report Designer view of a report to the printer? (Other than using multiple PrintScreens...) I want to have copies of our FRX layouts as seen in the Report Designer (c/w controls, bands, etc.) for our inhouse programmer's documentation.

    VFP9 - Internal Consistency Error on Win/XP Pro ???

    We are VFP developers, and I have recently replaced my local Win/2000 development computer with one using Win/XP-PRO. Installed the same software as on my old computer ... VFP8, VFP9, etc. Everything seems OK except for the following chronic problem. If I make a syntax error in a line of code...

    How to get TIME() from server

    Probably a simple answer to this one, but it is eluding me. Because the workstations on our network will typically be off a few minutes in synchronizing their clocks, I need to get the TIME() from the Win2000 server. Is there an easy way to do this? TIA ... Roy

    How did this Temp File pathname get into a project ?

    One of our client installations recently had a frequent intermittent error "Error reading file..." Filename was "c:\docume~1\<username>\locals~1\temp\<progname.fxp>" I anticipate the reported filename was the DOS 8.3 version of the following: c:\Documents and...
