    BROWSE functionality

    Thank you JRB-Bldr, I hope they pay you well! I really like the sound of your second option, I'll play around with it and see if I can get it to work. The other part is to convince the client to make the change, the application is scheduled to be replaced by next February. Therefore they...

    BROWSE functionality

    Could you please expand on the ' read-only scrollable list on an append screen'. Is that still using the browse command or is it totally different?

    BROWSE functionality

    Is there a way to lock records in the browse window? I need to be able to let the users add new records and edit each field, but also ensure they don't edit existing fields in that same browse window. Thanks!

    Encryption and randseed

    We have an application that uses pgp 6.5.8 to encrypt files. The platform being used was recently upgraded from W98 to a locked-down W2K platform. The process used to be completely automated with no user input required, but now the user is prompted to enter random data until indicator reaches...

    Convert date field into a numeric or text field

    I have an Access table that I'm exporting to Excel. The date field needs to be in the format of yyyymmdd. I'm having 2 problems: 1. The field shows up in Excel as mm/dd/yyyy. 2. Really old dates (1900 or older) don't get exported and Access creates an ExportErrors table showing these...

    SCATTER confusion

    I think I figured it out, I'm getting my programming languages mixed up. I was doing "tablename.fieldname = value", when it should be "REPLACE tn.fn with value". Thanks.

    SCATTER confusion

    Setting a relation sounds great, I didn't know it existed before. Once the relation is set how do I reference the fields on each of the tables? I'm getting a compile error trying to reference the child table as tablename.fieldname. Also what would the check be to see if there is a child...

    SCATTER confusion

    Thanks for the reply, I would like to avoid using arrays if possible. What I'm doing is looping through a client table to update the ethnic origin field based on the original value and the country of birth field. I'm also searching another 'child' table to see if there is a corresponding...

    SCATTER confusion

    Is it possible to use the SCATTER function to scatter fields from two tables and reference the fields from those tables even if some fields from each table have the same name? A more thorough explanation of the SCATTER/GATHER functions than what is provided in the FoxPro help would be great...

    pcAnywhere black screen

    I have a Windows NT host using pcAnywhere v8.01. I can connect using Windows 98, but when I try to connect using W2K I get the black screen with a cursor. I tried slowing down the modem speed, on both the remote and the host, all that did was give me garbage characters on the black screen...

    Hidden screen fields

    Long story. I have to use two fields for the same value. The field where the users select the value has to have a specific name in order to use the look up function (which i'm not about to rewrite). Then I transfer that value to the other field for saving, which is the field on the table...

    Hidden screen fields

    I'm using FoxPro 2.6 for Windows. The coding is done through the .SCX screens and I want the field to be always invisible. It is a GET field. Thanks.

    Hidden screen fields

    Can someone tell me the best way to hide or otherwise make a field invisible on a screen? TIA

    deleted records

    Is it possible to create an index, or somehow sort records in order of deleted records first, then the rest?
