Hi All, I am new to delphi development. I want to design a touch entry Pos form in delphi as attached. What controls should I use and any related tutorial ? TIA

Hi, I am using oracle database with vfp via ODBC and use SPT commands to send/receive data from vfp. I have to convert VFP date fields with oracle "to_date" function or a vfp logical field to numeric 1/0 before sending my vfp data to oracle. I want to use CursorAdapter with Oracle database...

Hi Foxincloud, Thank you for reply. I develop VFP desktop applications. As the internet is fast, cheaper and easily available, I would love to adapt my VFP applications to Foxincloud. I have tried the demo version before and had these issues 1) Foxincloud tutorial and step by step tutorials...

Hi Olaf, I am working in foxpro since foxpro DOS. I don't want to create a database server but wants to do some vfp data access layer. I have converted some parts of our application from vfp to oracle database too (mainly data for some reports). I thought I could use VFP and XML(?) to exchange...

Vfp data sync to a database server is an other part of this application. I want to use my VFP knowledge to build a single vfp data access layer for all types of clients like desktop / web etc. Yes, you are right that it is the data which will be common in all these clients. And all the data...

Yes, It is an old style developed application and I want to convert its data access logic. I have seen some videos about Enterprise application development in DotNet in which they can access it through multiple clients like desktop / web / mobile / tablets etc and client applications developed...

Hi, I need to access and update vfp data from desktop as well as web clients. I know sql server will be a good data source instead of vfp free tables but right now all our application data is in vfp. I searched on web and in this forum about multiple techniques to do this which are like (1)...

How can I switch to Arabic code page when printing Arabic reports? Since it only works by setting the system locale from regional settings of control panel which needs to restart the PC.

Thank you Tamar. My code page from Cpcurrent() is 1256 (Arabic) and CPDBF() is 1252 (English). This application is using English as input language but later due to some requirement I set Arabic system locale to print few reports in Arabic. What can I do to improve the speed or is there some...

Hello, I and my other developers have set their system language to Arabic through system locale option via windows regional languages. We are using windows 7 and 8.1. Both vfp 7 and 9 have the same speed problem. If we change the system locale to default English, then program as well vfp exe...

Hi Olaf, I thought to add two fields timestamp and flag in my tables but now I will try this increment field idea. Thanks Naeem

Hi, Thanks Olaf. 1) I have logical field rec_Status in vfp table and rec_status number(1) column in oracle table. For spt, I convert (map) logical to numeric and vice versa in my DML query. Can this be automated through CA "ConversionFunc" property or through Remote view ? Thanks Naeem

Hi, Thanks Olaf.

Hi, Thanks Olaf for detailed reply. I will try this. I once used single vfp table via spt (2 to 3k records) to oracle database and it took a long time because it processed the table record by record. 1) Can I update records in a bulk/batch? Should I use CA / remote views ? 2) Should I use...
