    programing dongle

    A dongle is like any other object connected to the PC via a comm port. If it sends a response back to the computer, then you can capture this signal and analyze it. Check the manual that comes with the dongle to learn the APIs for the object, their correct syntax, and the values returned for...

    imaging for windows not user by windows XP

    Just An Idea.... I've never had this occur, but you could do one of the following: 1. deploy the Windows Imaging software with your application. 2. Convert the image into something standard, like GIF or a JPEG, and let the browser display the image. Olan

    PB80 Nested DW’s overlapping (report)

    In your code, try directly setting the attributes you need on your visible columns - like the dddw width, AutoSize, etc. Perhaps that will force the objects to be drawn in the correct size. Be sure to either dynamically calculate the size needed, or to use percentages - do NOT hardcode your...

    How to Connect PowerBuilder to MS Access tables

    PowerBuilder has a set of tables that it inserts into every database: these are the CATALOG tables to which the error message refers. The PB Installation CD includes a script to insert these tables into most of the standard databases on the market today. I do not know if ACCESS is included in...

    PB 6.5 and Oracle CLOB object

    If a &quot;CLOB&quot; is a character large object in Oracle, perhaps you should send it a BLOB object from PB? I know that a string has additional data embedded into its structure (like its length) and thus should not be used to contain BLOB-type data. In PB8, I'd suggest you use GetFullState...

    Building the Library takes forever....

    It sounds like a VSS-related problem; perhaps the work files are still locked. Check out the Sybase/Source Control forum for extensive information on PB and VSS. Olan

    How do you interface PB6.5 with VSS?

    There are HUNDREDS of posts on this subject in the Sybase/Source Control forum. Check it out. BTW, after reading though that forum, we went with QVCS as our source control product. But you are already using VSS which means you've already paid for it! Olan

    Using Powerbuilder 5.4 and getting an unusual build error

    Any time you get a BUILD error during the LINK phase of the operation, you've got an object that is being referenced that the compiler cannot find. I'm not sure if &quot;__imp__VirtualQuery@12&quot; is an object reffered to in your code or is an indirect reference. In any case, if you do a...

    PowerBuilder v6.5 &amp; v7 on Windows XP

    FYI - 1. Pb 7.0.3 is the earliest version of PB that is certified to work with Win2K. PB8.0.3 is the earliest version certified to work with WinXP. 2. Use the ENVIRONMENT object to capture the operating system information from the client PC. 3. I >>>STRONGLY<<< recommend upgrading to PB8.0.3...

    How print in LPT1 and LPT2 in same datawindow

    Why not just change the name of your printers? If you need to print to device1 then set that as your printer. From the PRINTER Datawindow Object property: The printer you select for a DataWindow does not affect the PowerBuilder default printer or the system default printer. To specify a...

    App behavior changes when users go from W95 to W2K

    Sorry guys, PB 7.0.3 is the first version of PowerBuilder to be guaranteed to work with Win2K and guaranteed to be Y2K compatible. The differences between the PCs is due to the differences between the underlying operating system DLLs. What you can do is check to see if you are running in a...

    DSN-LESS and TNS-Less Oracle Connection?

    Richard - OK, now I'm confused. Why would you want to change the TNSNames file? The only reason I know of to do so is 1) because the physical connection to the database has changed (like the port number), or 2) because you are adding a new connection to a new database. If you are adding a new...
