Has anyone experienced this? Any suggestions? Suddenly today, one of our users went to a screen where there is a linked record, which showed up blank. I look up the same person ( in the same database ) on one of my PCs and they show up. I look on my other PC and they do not. So, then I...

Has anyone ran into this before? Any suggestions? We have word mail merge documents to pull from VFP tables. I found a weird bug with Word 97 where it will CENTER a merge field ( although alignment is left ) if there is a carriage return in the data. Taking out the carriage return makes it...

One of our users is getting the annoying "BEEP" when a messagebox is displayed, dispite having turned her sound to MUTE! I even tried setting all of her notification sounds to (none) and still get the beep. Any idea what would override the mute? When I mute my computer, I don't get the beep.

This is more of a windows issue, I'm thinking, but I thought I'd ask here because it's happening in a FoxPro application. One of our users is suddenly getting a BEEP when a MESSAGEBOX() comes up. This is not functionality built into the app. I run the same EXE from my workstation and get no...

Has anyone come across a solution for this type of issue? I created a lookup/record select form that goes against a remote Oracle Database, basically listing members. I have the underlying cursor begin empty, then when they enter the criteria they are looking for, I dynamically build a WHERE...

Just curious if anyone had a solution for this??? I have data classes that uses asynch fetching from an Oracle backend. One feature of our record select screens is creating indexes on the cursor to allow the users to sort by various fields and lookup values. However, when you try to create an...

Is there a built-in way of making a copy of an existing object? Maybe I'm just braindead and I can't remember. I realize you could loop through all properties and assign them individually, I was just wondering if there was a shortcut. I'm thinking something like ... o1=NEWOBJECT(<class>...)...

Which, in your experience, will be faster? table1 has 500 fields ( field1, field2, .... ) table2 has a subset fields from table1 ( field1, field2 ) Same # of records. select field1, field2 from table1 select * from table2 Thanks in advance!

I am just curious if this performance seems "typical"? I realize this is a very subjective question. I am doing some troubleshooting and I am fairly sure the network is our bottleneck. When we load our forms, we do several queries of the "select <fields> from <table> where <key>=<given...

Everyone may already have heard this, but I thought I would post it since I didn't see it in this forum yet. Disappointing news - excerpt from http://www.hentzenwerke.com/indexwhymoving.html: As a Fox developer, opportunities have been dwindling for a decade. Virtually all development work...

To make a long story short, we may be moving to an Oracle backend from a Visual FoxPro database. We are actually in the process of rewriting an old FoxPro 2.6 application in VFP 8.0 for the front end. In any event, we are making some data changes at the same time. Currently, the keys (foreign...

We are in the process of rewriting a FoxPro 2.6 app in VFP 8.0. I've been trying to get a workable set of data classes set up using the new cursoradapters against our native VFP data, since we may eventually move our backend to an Oracle database. What I'm seeing is having cursoradapters based...

Has anyone worked with automating Lucent Message Manager? I've searched high and low, trying to find a way. The functionality I want is to be able to programmatically fax something from VFP. I can easily do this at home using a local fax machine and a FaxServer Object. However, we are in a...

I have a frustrating problem with automating Word that I am unable to reproduce. One of my users is getting this error, but I am not, and theoretically, we should have the same pc setup. I basically print a mail-merge Word document on the fly from FoxPro. Here is my code snippet: IF...

I've read through a lot of advice about converting from Fox 2.6 to VFP on this site, so sorry to cover old territory. I am an experienced VFP programmer, but came into the game after the Fox 2.6 glory days, so I haven't had any conversion experience. Any advice would be most appreciated! Is...

Hello, we are experiencing a strange problem with locking and I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions. We have a batch process that runs commissions for our agencies. When we try to run this process, we get the &quot;record is in use by another user&quot;. It had been using pessimistic...

This is my first post, so forgive my inexperience with the forum. I'm a VFP programmer that is temporarily supporting a FPW 2.6 app until we rewrite. I have read through similar postings, but not found an answer (maybe this isn't possible in FPW 2.6?). I can accomplish this in the VFP world...
