To correct my customer's issues with this fatal error I did follow Olaf's advice of having my apps copy all of the runtime dll's into the app startup folder and then uninstalling the app using the control panel. The app functioned fine after that. Just had to send the exe to the desktop as a...

I have to say I'm on Griff's side of the fence.... I started the applications I have developed, sold, and still support starting with 2.6.... they are now distributed in VFP8 and I went thru the required re-write of the code when they were converted to VFP6. I understand what the table buffering...

Windows Vista, Windows 7 and Server2008 have a directory and file caching issue due to changes in the SMB protocols in networking that can cause delays in data updates to the server from workstations, and index corruption if shared table updates are attempted from multiple workstations. Alaska...

file access denied sounds like a privledges problem... could be on a temporary file path... Andy Snyder SnyAc Software Services www.snysoft.com Hyperware Inc. a division of AmTech Software www.hyperwareinc.com

The trick you have to use for the non-wrapped fields on the right is to concatenate them into one field that you define in the detail band to be tall enough to show all of the fields that are concatenated. i.e. nw_field1 + chr(13) + nw_field2 + chr(13) + nw_field3 Andy Snyder SnyAc Software...

The opportunistic file lock setting can also cause delayed write issues with the buffered updates on workstations not getting flushed for an extended period of time... This is the link to the support article on the opportunistic file lock settings...

And to help you out even more... just copy the red check mark image below and use it in your form.... Andy Snyder SnyAc Software Services www.snysoft.com Hyperware Inc. a division of AmTech Software www.hyperwareinc.com

I would stay with the free table concept and copy the cursor to a free temporary table and pass the name of the the free temporary table to the other business object. The other business object could then load it's own cursor from the free temporary table and erase it to clean up. Andy Snyder...

Jack.... "better than nothing"... as you can see above I have offered a solution that is quite a bit better than nothing. In my early days programming with VFP and with FP 2.6 I used the wait window but I outgrew that a long time ago. Andy Snyder SnyAc Software Services www.snysoft.com...

Jack... using the WAIT WINDOW method is the quick and painless way to accomplish that but it also doesn't create a persistent message display window. Any movement of the mouse or a keyboard action removes the message. The display window example I gave is a persistent, modeless message window...

Here's a quick manual message window example... **** create the message window and display it... oMsg = CREATEOBJECT('desktopwindow') oMsg.SHOW() **** update the displayed message oMsg.NewMessage('Your message text here....') DEFINE CLASS desktopwindow AS FORM SCALEMODE =3 TOP=45...

Mike... the reason I have abandoned using memo fields is due to the nature of the application environment that my products are used in. The users have to be assumed to be completely computer ignorant and they often turn off their peer-to-peer server while other computers have the tables open...

Another major source of C00005 errors are corrupted memo fields... I have made a practice of removing memo fields from my table designs wherever possible to avoid the fatal error syndrome. Andy Snyder SnyAc Software Services www.snysoft.com Hyperware Inc. a division of AmTech Software...

I did tell you about the environment and I'm very clear about what I'm trying to troubleshoot... Unfortunately what I'm trying to troubleshoot isn't actually a VFP problem but a Windows OCX registration problem. I asked the question on this forum in case any of our peers had run into an ActiveX...

The workstations are running OS's earlier than Vista... (primarily XP) The server is not used as a workstation.... Corporate domain controlled network as opposed to home/workgroup peer to peer. I have to consult with the customer's IT services people to find out what might have changed on their...

I am maintaining a legacy app that is running under VFP7 and uses a particular ActiveX control for image editing that has been in use for the last 8-10 years. On this particular installation the ActiveX control that registers successfully using REGSVR32 throws and OLE error 'class not...

Another issue with Windows 7 that affects performance across a network is the OpLocks setting on the server and workstations... The following links are from Microsoft... http://support.microsoft.com/kb/296264/en-us...

Another solution that I have used to be able to space columns of expanding "memo" report fields is to create a separate memo field for each column in the detail band cursor record and populate the column memo fields instead of populating 1 spaced memo field. All of the columns expand to the same...

You're relying on an index to get you to the last invoice generated... not a good practice due to the possibility of the index not being in sync with the data table or being corrupted... local ln_invno ln_Invo = 0 select distinct invno from frames into cursor tmpFrames scan ln_Invno =...
