    installing on another machine

    The best option might be to use the installshield app that came with VFP 8. If you are using any external dll's (for example, Filer.dll) you will need to install these as well. VFP has a help "walkthrough" on creating an install procedure that you can use. Ken

    Citrix Presentation and Universal Printer Driver

    I have never actually run into this situation, but I can hazard a SWAG at what is happening: The reports have all printer driver info removed (they probably hacked the reports.) When the preveiw runs, it uses the current printer's drivers to generate the preview and therefore the report prints...

    Using multiple databases in FoxPro

    You don't need to change the name of the database - just change the location. lcDatabasePath = MyCompanyTable.cDBPath CLOSE TABLES ALL CLOSE DATABASES ALL SET PATH TO &lcDatabasePath OPEN DATABASE MyDBC Assume that your Data directory now has a series of sub-directories (one for each...

    client/server app without SQL server

    UltimateWilliam, Further to what Scott gave you, you are going to have two learning curves that you need to work through. The first deals with Object Oriented Programming (OOP) and the second deals with a client/server or "N Tier" construct. After FPW 2.6 came VFP 3 - that is where the Fox...

    Notepad and VFP9

    Paul, Are you saying that VFP is using wordpad rather than the VFP editor when you modify a .prg? If so, you need to look at your configuration file. Do you have TEDIT set to wordpad? Ken

    I knew controls are created before the form that contains them, but...

    It should not give you any problems then. I assume that this navigation class runs error free in other forms. Does it? If it runs in other forms, then there has to be something in this form that is causing it to fail. Ken

    VFP6 - strtran() on form field

    If you simply save your stuff to a DBF and then export to an XLS, you go ignore the middle step of creating a CSV. This way you can ignore the quote-to-start. Ken

    Try .Columns(x).ControlSource = (mField) Ken

    I knew controls are created before the form that contains them, but...

    What do you have in the form's load? The order of execution is LISA - Load Init Show Activate. If you refer to your class in the load, it may not be there yet. Ken

    Set Key Command

    FREE doesn't go into a SELECT Statement - When you SELECT ... INTO MyTable, it creates a free table. If you SELECT ... INTO MyTable DATABASE MyDBC, it adds it to the database. Ken

    Null value display in grid

    Perhaps you are looking for the .NullDisplay rather than the .DisplayNull property. The grid does not have this property, but the textbox in the grid does.

    Set Key Command

    RGW, You should be able to SELECT every bit as fast as you can SET KEY. The primary problem with SET KEY is that you have to have exactly the right index for every selection type. True it is simple to add indexes, but not when users have the table open. If you have the correct indexes on...

    txt file into frx

    Hamirca, Not sure if this is what you are looking for, but it sounds as if you are trying to include text stored in a file in a report. You can do this by creating a text box on your report and then setting the control source to a function like this FUNCTION GetTextFromTextFile LPARAMETERS...

    Network performance!

    Try getting rid of NETBUI Use one protocol only - made my network 20% faster but that was the entire network. If you have a one machine problem, check the hardware.

    "Append For" function does not work

    Try using the date function: DATE(YYYY,MM,DD)

    Report locks tables ????

    Check the data environment in the report. Is it set to default? If not, FP will create a new data environment that may be defaulting to SET EXCL ON. Use the default data environment or in the data envionment's init method, SET EXCL OFF.
