What can I say? I'm old and forgetful. A LOT has happened in my life since 2015! But, on the other hand, can you believe this Fox 2.6 app is still taking over 1 million orders per year? Even with a max screen width of 1024. :)
Hi All,
Can anyone confirm that 1024 is the maximum width for a screen in Fox 2.6? If I change that value to a larger value it just seems to change it back.
Yes, generally the invoice is one page. I currently am averaging somewhere around 2 seconds per PDF creation using XFRX. With invoices which are small, I have to setup an automatic restart of the app at around 2000 invoices created in order not to crash the app. I think there may be a memory...
If I am just mass producing PDFs without user interaction, can FoxyPreviewer still be used? An example would be as we create printed invoice copies for our shipping department to work from, we also create a PDF simultaneously from the same Foxpro report to have for our customer service agents...
Hi guys,
I have had a breakthrough. Unknown to me, there was a data folder on one of the systems that contained a copy of the DBC and data tables that only contained sample data. I was able to copy that DBC over and get the system to work. I did have a few tables that it would not relink to...
Hi Olaf,
Yes, mine looks to match yours: 0B0000000100180000000A. I do not see anything in the code memo for StoredProceduresSource. As a matter of fact, I don't see anything in the code memo for any of the records.
Yes, I do see those first five rows matching yours. There are no deleted rows in the database. I have packed it and it still shows the same number of records. I also tried removing those objectid=0 records but it did not help.
By the way, I have now downloaded all the data files as well so...
Sorry jrbbldr
Yes, the customer exhibits the same problem. That's how it got started. I made a local copy on my machine here offsite in order to try to repair the file. So, yes, the files I am currently working with are copies of the original from the customer and have the same issue. I also...
Hi Mike/Olaf,
I do have the file triple of DBC,DCT and DCX and have checked that there are no deleted records. I would agree that the number of records is extremely high. Many of the records are objectid=0 which makes me think these records are invalid. The file size of the dbc itself is...
To clarify, if I use databasename.dbc, the recccount() is 218250 records. This is not any of the DBF files themselves. I actually don't have those tables as they are on the customer site. I only copied over the database (dbc,dct,dcx files). Strangely enough, if I use the select statement eg...
Hi Guys,
Thanks for all the comments. Here's what I know so far. The DBC does have records verified by the USE DBC statement instead of open database. Using a utility that Westwind had posted sometime back to determine Foxpro versions from an EXE, it is VFP8. The last backup the customer...
Hi guys,
I have a database (DBC) that gives the error that it is not a database. I can however open it with "use filename.dbc" successfully. I have a copy of Recover that I have used successfully to recover and repair DBFs for years. It reports no problems when using it to scan/repair the...
I have considered that but in this particular screen it is reading data from a bunch of different sources with list boxes etc and I will have to maintain state during the "Refresh". It could be done but luckily they have decided I can just put a large title field on each of the screens and...
Hi philthoms,
That does indeed change the background of the screen but it wipes out all labels and gets. If you issue a show gets it will redraw the gets but not the labels/lines/rectangles etc. I don't know how to get it to completely redraw the screen other than doing what danfreeman suggested.
