Greetings, Previously I have posted some adverse comments about XBASE++ and EXPRESS++ migration because I had unresolved errors. Now I want to put the record straight - we have SUCCESS!! With help from the XBASE support guys and from Roger Donnay we diagnosed that my problems were localised on...

I have 2 ledgers on the same server in different directories One services the NZ market and the other services AUSTRALIA. The file names are common to both directories. We must move stock between the 2 ledgers. The Clipper 5.2c manual says 'Fine - just make sure that unique ALIASes are used for...

Client was using PKZIP across a network connection when someone else opened a file currently being zipped... the workstation hung and the only way out of it was to reboot that workstation. Now that particular workstation can no longer use our program because a required datafile gives an error...

Have copied Greg Lief's source code and tried to migrate his functions to XBASE++ but am not successful yet. Has anyone managed to migrate POPCALC() or POPDATE successfully to XBASE++... ... and if so, could I pretty please have a copy of your code? Thanx in anticipation, Jim <jwild@xtra.co.nz>

Has anyone successfully migrated Greg's POPDATE function from Clipper to XBASE++ ?? If so I would really appreciate a copy of your converted source. I have wasted untold trying to debug it myself without success. Thanx in anticipation, Jim

Hi, Had good success migrating Clipper applications to XBASE++. However, I have some systems that use the 3rdparty GRUMP.CH and I need to be able to include these functions when converting to XBASE++. Any suggestions please? Thanx, Jim

When running a Clipper application on a HOST computer via a pcAnywhere Host/Remote session we are getting a SYMEVENT error message (greybox message with the memory address of the conflict). The HOST computer is a PIII-600. Clipper is 5.2B linked with RTLINK. Could this error condition be...

I currently use RTLINK on CLIPPER 5.2b source code. This results in a 1.6MB .EXE which tells me at link time that the result uses 399K. When I run the program (with 580k conventional memory available under WIN98) I have only 95k of FREE memory. ENVIRONMENT FACTORS ARE:- DBASE3 FILE...

When I had only 80 column wide reports saved to disk I could display them on screen using RUN TYPE myfile.txt |MORE and it ran like a dream... no problemo mon! PROBLEM number ONE: Now my clients tell me that they see nothing on screen when they try to use this option! Something is obviously...

CA-Clipper 5.2 linked with RTLINK When we were using only 1 memo field we never seemed to have a problem with the text content. We enhanced the system which now has 10 memo fields in the single record... and now we are constantly losing part of the texts in any of the memo fields. Only the...

Memo records in a .DBT file are not linked correctly to their original parent record. There appears to be no obvious pattern to the contamination, but rather a random misfit. 1. How can this happen? 2. How can I repair the problem? 3. How can I prevent it happening again? EXE compiled with...

Have finally made a decision for the future and bought XBASE++. I have squillions of lines of CA-CLIPPER 5.2 code and do not know where to start with conversion (but I am surely going to get stuck right in!!!) Any tips would be greatly appreciated.

Hi gals & guys, Have a client with some databases created years ago in DOS using WAMPUM (shareware/freeware database - a bit like dBASE3). Please does anyone remember the product, and more importantly can we have a contact address/site so we can get a working copy of WAMPUM to allow retrieval...

I have made changes to Windows\System.ini (WINDOWS ME) and added a new 1st line in 386enh section..... PerVmFiles=150 However, I am still getting DOS ERROR 4 What else must I change to provide enough handlers? Thanx, Jim

Migrated a CLIPPER package to a WINDOWS ME new PC. I got DOS ERROR 4 when opening the 16th file under Windows ME. So I put a 'SET CLIPPER=F111 /E:0' line into an AUTOEXEC.BAT file in the root directory and I also put 'FILES=150' into a CONFIG.SYS file (this worked fine for Win95 and Win98)...

I need to print a scanned logo (in a JPEG or similar file) to the header of an invoice. Is there any FUNCTION() that can do this please? Jim

Client wants to change all reports/document printing to fit plain A4 paper. This calls for printing their company logo onto invoices and statements. How can I achieve this sort of image printing from CA-Clipper 5.2? Does anyone have a function I can borrow or buy that I can then cut & paste...
