    Send Event with Parameters

    Hi, I'm trying to call a compiled macro with SendEvent (I'm using FMP 7.0). I read on another forum to store four doublequotes in a field called QMK, store the path and macro name in another field and then call it this way: "cmd /c " & QMK & macroname & QMK This works fine. It calls my...

    Images when creating PDF from html

    Hi, I'm trying to create a PDF from html. When I do so, it gets rid of the space around my images so that the images are right up against each other. In my html css, I have margin-bottom: 20px Even though it looks correct on my browser, Acrobat ignores this margin when I create the PDF from...

    HTML Form Submit not Passing URL

    Hi, I have a simple HTML form. (I signed up for an autoresponder account, AWeber, and the form is generated by their wizard). It uses POST as its method. Here's the problem. Behind the scenes, apparently it isn't passing the originator's URL, which means the person is going into the system as...

    Export to EPS loses gradient

    Hi, I have a gradient with 2 spot colors. I need to end up with an EPS that also has this gradient. However, when I export to an EPS from Indesign CS and then I open the resulting EPS in Illustrator, I no longer have my gradient. It looks correct, but when I click on the object, it is not a...

    Vertical Bars in Image

    Hi, This should be an easy one for someone to answer. I'm just not experienced enough to recognize the problem. I just got Photoshop 7 at home. When I post a very simple image to the web, I'm getting verical bands. I don't see these bands on my screen in Photoshop. When I tried a similar test...

    Keep ILL from Centering When Opening

    Hi, I'm sure this is a very basic question, but I'm not that experienced in Illustrator. I have a file in Indesign that is letterhead. It has a logo and text at the top of an 8.5" x 11" document. I saved it as an EPS and opened it in Illustrator. Instead of showing me my logo/text at the top...

    IE z-index and positioning bug

    Hi, I have an IE-specific problem where the fix for one bug caused another, and I'm not sure how to fix both. Look at www.silverleafdesign.com/contact.php There's a div with a rounded rectangle semi-transparent images as its background. This div shows behind the form fields. In order to get...

    Downloading data to file

    Hi, I have a perl script that I downloaded from the web. It allows the user to download data from a mysql file as a .CSV file. Here's the problem. When I run it using IE on an XP PC, I am prompted to save the file. But when my customer runs it, it never prompts him. Instead it shows all the...

    Changing Font on copy/paste

    Ok, here's a weird one. I have a text frame in one document. The font is New Baskerville ITC by BT. I copied and pasted the text frame into a different document. When I check the font of my pasted text, it was ITC Kabel. I noticed a preference "Preserve Text Attributes when Pasting" but...

    z-index for Mac IE

    Hi, Mac IE doesn't seem to handle z-index properly. I have a simple test stylesheet: #logo{ position:relative; height: 112px; padding: 0px; margin:0px; border-style: none; z-index:3; } #logo2{ height: 112px; padding: 0px; margin:-20px; border-style: none; z-index:2; } with the...

    Searching for Paren

    Two questions. 1. When using the replace method, what does LookAt do/mean? The only documentation I can find tells me to use either xlPart or xlWhole but doesn't say what these things mean. 2. I'm trying to search for "(" and replace it with "B" for all the cells in my active worksheet. Here's...

    I have an Access 2000 database. Another user has read-only access to it via network security. I instructed her to create her own Access 2000 database and then link to the tables in mine so she can create her own queries, but when she tries to link to the tables, she gets an error "could not...

    variable scope

    I don't understand why the below example doesn't work. I thought variables are global unless they are in a function: test.html contains <!doctype html public &quot;-//w3c//dtd html 4.0 transitional//en&quot;> <HTML> <BODY> <script src=&quot;c:/tempcandelete/menutop.js&quot;></script> </BODY>...

I put an invisible control in detail whose control source is =1, set to Running Sum Over All, name = IncrementalCount. In the report footer section, I put...

    Searching both parent and child

    I know this must be a simple thing, but I'm fairly new and can't figure it out. I have a parent file and a child file. What's the best technique for searching the child file with criteria from both the child and parent files? Tried from the parent side--searching, putting the unique ids in a...

    What are warnings set to?

    In a module, I want to set warnings off, run a query, but then instead of setting warnings back on, I want to set warnings to what they were when the module was called. They may have been off but they may have been on. Is there any way to tell what warnings are set to at the beginning of the...
