Struth! How can we both miss a simpler solution! Just set the margin parameter on the scrollbox - about 30 for advancing the field list on the vertical scrollbar... Now I can see one field ahead of the focused one. Cheers.

Yep, doing the code for that right now, thanks Griffyn!

Hmmm, OK, got the auto scrolling part going with the Scrollby - thanks for that (mark for that), now I just have to isolated the tabbing on a set of fields that go across and not have the screen jump... Thanks

That's handy but no, not using a TDBCtrlGrid for the data. Just a standard panel with the scroll-box with holds all the data fields pasted all over it. The scroll-bar belongs to the scroll box. Thanks.

Hi all, I have a data entry screen which is very long (scrollbar range 6000 approx) and the users want to see the field directly under the one they are entering data into as an indication of what is coming next. I do come across a few others who can't stand entering data when the focused field...

I have an Import and stats screen where I have a progress bar to show the progress of how many records have been processed. When I run the program on a slow network or locally, progress bar works fine, but when using it on another network which is somewhat faster, the progress bar gets stuck at...

howdy, I have the dreaded DBGrid problem where the scroll button when moved, does a few strange things and only moves to the top and bottom of the grid visually and replicating the indicator when the scroll button is depressed (pressing down on the wheel). As I have parts of my product needing...

Howdy, Being a previous Paradox programmer, had no problem putting my products on a network drive and have more than 1 person using the product at the same time. But what steps should I take to have a Delphi program on the network drive using Paradox tables - is it still as easy? I want to...

Thanks for that guys! The thought was around that I wanted a "near perfect" product before giving it a Ver 1.0 as we obviously we all aim for etc and I have to stay away from thinking that having subversion numbers doesn't make it bad in any way after the official release version...

Hi everyone, Just want to get clarification on the "protocol" on how to determine what version number a program should be in development. My beta version of a Psychosocial assessment database is just about ready to replace my older Paradox version. It's the 5th generation but stuck...

I think we are confused. Sorry if I'm wrong but it sounds like you are at the basics of Delphi... What a few of us here will say, Use one TTable component for each Paradox table you have. Alter the parameters in the Object inspector so each TTable component has the table name eg Table name =...

Had a problem where a full blown stats report covered several pages. Using many sub-detail sections to present the different pages (not composite), you can easily cause a nasty if you try to export the report using the Text-filter. When designing and copying down fields from the report itself...

Howdy, I have a stats report which works well in D5 and when I export it to a QRP file it works fine. But when I export it using the Text filter, it generates the file but the data is missing or partially there. When I exit the report after doing a text export, the form won't let me access...

Brilliant! If you could please, Email is Crisell.Allen@saugov.sa.gov.au For that you get the points and for your help, Thanks lespaul!

I've gone another direction and using Microsoft's example of how to merge a created data doc etc and works fine. IS there any listings to list the word codes eg: wdSendToNEwDocument etc. as I can't find too easily how to color paragraphs etc and change their style etc via the properties of the...

Thanks for that, but that didn't work either. Just had 134 characters in the report and I had set 1000 and xp can take it up to 32000 approx but it didn't make any difference. It must have something to do with the RTF codes or something on the text. The problem is I can't export just text as...

Hiya, A report that is generated from one of my products is stored in a table. It is in RTF format and can be readily printed using QReport. For extra flexibility for the user, I've successfully made some interaction between table data in Delphi and a Word Template using XP Word. But what I...

Hi all. (D5 Pro + updated QRP) In summary, when I bring up a Q report with multiple "sub-details" (which gives me a 7 page report treated as one), the program doesn't like showing these types of reports in "PreviewModal" mode. The error that comes up is "Error...

Hiya, started having a problem where after I exit my application, the message "invalid window handle" comes up. Running the program and using most functions doesn't give this error message but when I use a certain reporting functions which may be 3 windows deep from the main menu...

Thanks for that... closing wasn't the problem but I forgot to put in code to disconnect the server before connecting again. My next test is to find out what happens if it tries to access Word on a machine where Word isn't installed. Do you know how to test for that so no nasty messages come...
