    Repeated Parameter Requests

    I've got a slightly messy situation I'm trying to debug. I'm using CR XI to generate reports which are displayed by another application which runs on a server. I do the development on my local machine, using a VPN to connect to the server for data access. The data is broken into two separate...

    Cascading Parameters: How Do It Know?

    I'm trying to figure out HOW CR cascades parameter choices. Does it take the join information from the Links tab and use that to determine that "SCHOOL"."district" links to "DISTRICT"."id", or is it pulling foreign key information from the source database, or what? The reason I'm asking is...

    Mismatched Parameter Help Page

    I'm using Crystal Reports XI, Professional Edition, and I've got a conundrum. I'm trying to work with Cascading Parameters, but the Help page shows columns in the Parameters interface that I don't see. Specifically, when I click on the Dynamic radio button, I see three columns: Value...

    A VERY weird form value parsing bug

    I've got a very weird and confusing bug here. Stripping it down to the core problem I've isolated, I have a database accessible by several users, including myself. There is a form containing several records, and one of the fields on the form is the record ID. I build a query which reports the...

    Why is identica query returning different results for different users?

    I've worked with MS Access since 1996, and I've never run into this problem before, so I could use some suggestions on where to look. I've got a database which contains a standard form-based parameter query (simplified for purpose of my question): PARAMETERS [Forms]![FORM_NAME]![ID] Short...

    PHPDocumentor without command line?

    I want to set up PHPDocumentor for use at work, but in the interests of minimizing the work required of my coworker who maintains the server, I'm trying to find out if there's a way of using it through the standard CGI install of PHP rather than needing the CLI version. Any suggestions?

    Techique Q: $_POST[ ] versus import_request_variables( )

    I'm looking for some input on a syntax choice: is there any practical advantage to using the $_POST[] array rather than import_request_variables("P","P_")? I've written most of my sites using the latter, but I've been wondering whether the former might save me some trouble. Any informed...

    Regex suggestion for this task

    I'm trying to figure out a way of using regular expressionsm specifically ereg_replace(), to take an existing string and indent it. Specifically, I'd like to take a string like line 1\nline 2\nline 3\n and turn it into \tline 1\n\tline 2\n\tline 3\n Note that I don't want a tab after the...

    Recovering pre-onclick value of a radio button group

    I have a set of radio buttons, some of which can trigger the display of other form elements (i.e. the user clicks "I hate it", and the onclick property triggers Javascript which displays a textarea labeled "what do you dislike about it?"). I want to set up some validation code so that if the...

    Excel shifts dates when they are copied and pasted

    I have run into a really weird problem with Excel recently. For some reason, when data from certain spreadsheets is copied and pasted into another workbook, the dates displayed in the copied data shift by four years and one day into the past. The numeric value storing the date is not changing...

    Identifying proxy rights via the API

    I'm having difficulties figuring out how to navigate proxy rights using the Groupwise Object API. If I have an Account object for user Fred, the AccessRights property will give me a list of everybody he has granted proxy rights to see his account. How do I find the accounts to which he has...

    How can I generate a DES hash in VB?

    I'm currently working on a VB interface to a database populated by a PHP application. The PHP application stores a DES hash of user passwords in the database using the crypt() function. Now, I want to compare passwords entered through my VB interface against the hashed passwords in the...

    Weird interaction between <a> and <dl> in Firefox

    This is a weird one. I'm putting up a site for fun, and I've got a problem. I'm trying to put a hyperlink in an entry of a definition list, i.e. <dl>. For some reason the presence of the hyperlink breaks the indentation ofthe containing list element in Firefox, whether the hyperlink is inside...

    CSS positioning weirdness in IE

    Ok, I'm trying to set up a table-style data entry display, where several records are displayed for editing, one record per row. I was beating my head against a CSS problem in getting the rows to work, and I've reduced it to what appears to be a very basic positioning inconsistency in IE. You...
