    Deleting a Line if it is not present in an address label

    I also need to be able to delete just an address line if it is not present. When I try to do this, it deletes the entire address. I can't just delete a line.

    'Losing Data' in successive reports

    I have to use the same report with a series of 4 datafiles. It worked fine with the first datafile. It can't 'find' the data from the second, third, and fourth datafiles. These are FoxPro dbf files. I have looked at them in FoxPro. They are fine. This report was set up in Crystal 5. (I...

    Getting data from a FPW2.6 Database and running report

    I have a large Foxpro Windows 2.6 database. I have to pull information from 4 files in the database. I then have to accurately place this in a fifth file so that I can run a report from this. The report was done in Access 97. It works so long as the fifth file is correct. I could get the...

    Legacy report (and file) problems

    I need to be able to pull information out of a large database (FPW 2.6, 4 different files) and place it very accurately in a fifth file. This fifth file is then used to run Crystal Reports. I can get data out of the large database. I cannot get it to go accurately into the fifth file. I...

    Add a counter to a report

    I 'inherited' a report that does membership cards. I need to add a counter to this. I don't know how. None of the documentation that I have says anything about it. And, as usual, I needed to do this yesterday. This report is in Crystal 5.

    Pulling Data from FoxPro files into Access

    I 'inherited' a large Foxpro Win 2.6 database about a year ago. This runs peer to peer off NT 4 - SP 6. Many of the datafiles are very large. One is about 3.5 Gig. Many of the variables in the original datafiles are not being used in the system. However, as all paths, locations, etc. are...

    Indexing a 'dynamic' database

    I 'inherited' a Foxpro 2.6 for Win database that runs on an NT network about a year ago. It is set up peer to peer. It has paths, font size, location of variable, screen resolution, etc. hard coded into it. Now for the problem. A user pulls some data to make a report. This ends up on...

    Rebuilding a Foxpro Project

    I have a large foxpro 2.6 (Win) that probably needs to be rebuilt. I am getting such error messages as 'code not found', 'incorrect version of code', etc. I have an *.app file. I have no documentation as to what goes into the project. Are there any things that I should watch for...

    Good Books on VFP

    I am starting to have to deal with this on a very serious level. There are a number of books that have been written, but I am interrested in those that people have found useful. What is your favorite? And why? I do have the 'using' from QUE and the Microsoft Press set. But neither goes far...

    Many to many relationships on the same form

    I am dealing with a number of many to many relationships. The tables are all indexed on the same field. I need to be able to link 2 or 3 tables at a time. Is there a good way to deal with these? I have never done this before.

    Info from 3 tables on the same form

    I need to be able to scan information from 3 tables into 1 form. The tables all have a common field, idnumb. I tried to link the tables by id number. This only worked when I used the wizard. I am pulling some of the information into text boxes and some into grids. The scan does work. The...

    Evnthdlr Library Information

    I am 'attempting' to move a Foxpro application, FPW26.A, with Microsoft patches, from a 133 Mhz Pentium server to a 733 Mhz Pentium III server. I keep getting various errors. They basically all 'come' from the evnthdlr library. I can't find this anyplace on the disk. Most of the errors...

    Finding an item in a list and then copying the record

    This should be easy, but it isn't. I need to check the id numbers in one list against the id numbers in another list. These are presently in 2 worksheets, but they could be in one. If the id number from the first list is present in the second list, then I need to copy the entire record to a...

    Difference between count and actual records

    People asked for a count of things in a particular file. <br><br>count for rcode=&quot;A&quot; gave 2771 records.&nbsp;&nbsp;The same things in Visual FoxPro version 6 gave 2774 records.<br><br>However, when I retrieved the data from the same file...<br><br>Select * from file where...

    I inherited a large Foxpro 2.5 and 2.6 database that runs on NT.<br><br>This was originally set up as peer to peer.<br><br>On reindexing the database files (that are huge), there was binary that 'snuck' in.&nbsp;&nbsp;Needless to say, the indices do not work well.&nbsp;&nbsp;And, programs that...

    Can't get into the mdb table.Access denied.

    We have some database tables, mdb, that are generated by a proprietary program. The program 'eats' any data over 3 months old. (Needless to say, tech support has been talked to about this.)<br> <br> We keep the data separate from the program. If we need it for historical reasons, we go in...

    Control Files Gone

    I only have .exe files left of a number of reports. Neither the .rpt file nor the .crf file is present.<br> <br> They are also not on the backups.<br> <br> If I try to run the .exe file, it says, control file not present.<br> <br> Is there anyway that I can use the exe file to reconstruct the...

    Transgressed handle?

    I am now getting this error message? This is a warning, but if anyone does anything else with it, they generally get the 'illegal error' message.<br> <br> Does anyone have any ideas about transgressed handles?

    Year 2000

    I have a problem. I have a Foxpro database that prints from Crystal Reports, version 5.<br> <br> Crystal sent some dlls about a month ago to fix it. They did work in some test cases. They do not work now.<br> <br> I checked the dlls from version 7. They are completely different from those in...
