I routinely run FoxPro apps, originally created in FPW 2.6 for Windows, adapted to Visual FoxPro versions up to 9.0. Both my Windows 10 64bit Lenovo P1 laptops have been problematical in that they have stopped being able to access my android phones. Seems to be something about a corrupted INF...
This addition to the utility accomplishes what I was after:
If ALERT("Do you want to see the tracklisting?","Yes;No")=1
lcWasdef=Full(Curd())
Set Defa To W:\Data\Fox\DJ\FF30V5
Do FFOXFIRE With "REQUEST","","","ffCONFIG.PRG","DA_PRCPL"
Set Defa To &WASDEF
Endif
The only parameter needed was...
I suppose this in the header of FFOXFIRE.PRG gives a good idea of how this can be done:
*-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
**BEGIN SAMPLE**
*-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
* EXAMPLE CALL
* Note: since...
I am pretty sure this is doable, but am not seeing it thumbing through the Foxfire! reference manual. I figure it looks something like DO FOXFIRE WITH ( ... a set of parameters, which would obviously include a preference set and the name of a request and its required parameters, if any).
Does...
you may convert it to MS ACCESS via ACCESS or with some code for example using odbc (dbf->mdb and mdb->dbf)
There are tons of ACCESS viewers for android in playstore."
Can an ACCESS viewer for android see MEMO fields? Perhaps even edit them?
In a thread at Anandtech Forums on best android apps, [ https://forums.anandtech.com/threads/so-what-are-the-best-android-apps.2358587/ ] it was suggested I have a look at DBF Viewer Beta, a free download. I installed it today on a couple of my android phones and had a look. I failed to get it...
My mousepad on this Lenovo Thinkpad P1 (version 3) does emulate a scroll wheel nicely in a browser (two fingers on the mousepad, drag up or down), and does so very smoothly. But in the VFP 9 PRG editor it doesn't work nicely. Nothing happens until position suddenly jumps about an inch...
Thanks, Mike. To address your response (and Tamar's):
I was aware that I can easily change the font and size in the editor. I just thought I'd ask for suggestions. Your suggestion of sticking to monospaced fonts (which I believe courier is) is helpful. I guess I can stick with what I'm using...
Yes, Tamar, it's a procedure file. There are quite a few subroutines in it, tacked on after the main procedure comes to an end. It does call some code that's in the VFP path (i.e. not in the main procedure file), but by and large it doesn't do that. A lot of the subroutines are tiny, some fairly...
I've pretty much always used the editor furnished in Microsoft FoxPro in all versions (started with FoxPro for DOS 2.6, FPW 2.6, have used every version of VFP). I have an extensive procedural application that is based mostly on a single large PRG (PROCEDURE, with subroutines, mostly after the...
I just came back to this thread a few minutes ago because I again wanted to use my VFP 9 app (written in FPW 2.6a) not maximized and it would just disappear and I'd have to kill the process. Glad to see answers! Thanks!!!
Well, I tried Olaf's suggestion:
_screen.left=0
_screen.top=0
Basically...
So, I do some searching on the internet and see a page where it suggests this command
_screen.windowstate=0
I go to a command window and enter that. What could go wrong? That's supposed to set it not maximized, not minimized but "normal." However, what happened is that VFP again simply...
Just noticed this today. I usually run VFP maximized. Just now I have use for dealing with several apps at once, so I want to have VFP not maximized. But when I click the box to the left of the X, instead of getting a non-maximized window, VFP disappears entirely. I can find no way of dealing...
Yeah, a subquery wasn't necessary, just this:
sele proper(artist), proper(title), recordings, album, evaluation, play, airplay, theme from rec, airec where ;
date=msetdate and set_num=mset_num and rec.key=airec.key order by select_num
Here's my problem:
I have two tables and they share a common key. Let's call them table A and table B. The key is alphabetical, 9 characters.
Table A has details. Table B tracks instances that table A items occur, i.e. date and order of item appearance on that date, by set and order within the...
Well, I did a search and came upon an MSDN thread where it was suggested to enter this command in the command window in an effort to resolve this complaint:
SET MESSAGE TO
Doing that has resolved the behavior. However, I don't know why I had to do that. I am pretty sure I've never used that...
I used to be able to get this at the bottom left of the standard VFP 9 (and lesser versions) editing window. I know that many VFP programmers prefer other PRG editing options (a 3rd party editor, I suppose), and I would like to hear some suggestions, but I have always just used the one provided...
Thank you, Olaf, for the excellent clarifications! I will evidently (I suppose) need to reconfigure a lot of things now, e.g. my browse windows field widths and field order, probably have to set up my default font size in memo fields.
EDIT! Actually, I'm not seeing that necessity. My browses...
