    Uncoupled Disk Encryption

    Hi, I am looking for an disk encryption solution that is uncoupled from any specific vendor or OS. If a TPM module is used, it must not be at the motherboard layer. It can exist on the disk or at the pcie card layer. The kays are not to be saved at the motherboard or card layer. The keys...

    How do I Resize Controls at Runtime

    Thanks for the discussion... I had done this back 18 years ago and had completely forgot about it, until I started to work on the old app that I never use as it is a specific customer app. While reviewing how I did it, I used the mousemove event of a graphic object that looks like a handle...

    How do I Resize Controls at Runtime

    Thanks Scott... By dragging the edge of the grid if resizing a grid. When resizing a grid, I would use the grids resize event to change its neighbor's placement properties. If moving a line, (boundary line) for resizing an area in a form. Note that NO changes are made to the form, only the...

    How do I Resize Controls at Runtime

    Hi, For example, how do I resize a grid or move a line at runtime? Not the form or a window, but only the control. Then from the control's resize event, I can adjust the neighboring controls. Thanks, Stanley

    HowTo Set Custom Form Property's Default Value

    Hi, A long time ago I adopted a naming convention where lc=local char, ln=local numeric, gc=global char and so on. Because of this habit, I never do reassignments Changing a type from char to numeric or vice versa always has been a no-no and creates chaos. This style has served me well...

    HowTo Set Custom Form Property's Default Value

    Chriss, You can set a default type ONLY when creating it. Once created, there is no way to redefine the default data type as Mike has confirmed. That was what I was asking. Thanks, Stanley

    HowTo Set Custom Form Property's Default Value

    Hi, Thanks Mike... Glad you confirmed the issue and I wasn't missing something. Its always been trivial to deal with it and tonight, I thought I ask you guys as perhaps I'm looking in the wrong place. As far as the Thor stuff goes, I have a hard time keeping it working and eventually go back...

    HowTo Set Custom Form Property's Default Value

    Hi, How do I change a custom form property's default value? Currently, I delete and re-create it. I've looked. You can change its name and comment, but not defaults. VFPA Thanks, Stanley

    Order By not working as Expected

    Mark, Looks like I'm doing it the other way around, View Designer first, then load. Are both versions of the view identical? The one I create with the Designer is a complete single table view with all fields selected as updateable. I use that as a starting point for what is in the load...

    Hi Mark, I have all the Hentzenwerke books as they were not flooded and in my day-to-day collection. "What's New in Nine" is in that collection. I have looked extensively in those books and have found very little about view implementation. I just found the best and probably the most basic...

    Grid Disapears with Form Resize

    Hi, Using VFPA on Win11Pro I have a form with a grid that is pushed off into the corner (out of the way) with it's visible property set to .F. I have a button that toggles its show/hide. It's show sets the grids top=10, left=10 and visible = .T. properties and it shows where needed. Its...

    Order By not working as Expected

    Thanks Mark, I can certainly use the GetNextModified() function as this is first time I've seen it (as least I don't remember seeing it and definitely have never used it and all probably because its related to remote data, something I didn't do back then. The more we discuss things here the...

    Order By not working as Expected

    Hi, True, but a 1-liner fixes that. Here is what I did that makes it easy by copying the builder's sql code straight to a .prg or method and adding a small one line. Then leave as is, or edit as it contains the whole table's definition as a starting point/template. Before I invest a lot of...

    Order By not working as Expected

    Hi, Here is what I settled on. It insures that "All Clerks" will hold the #1 position, regardless what comes down from the query, something that Chris spoke of when he mentioned "Adair County" would come before "All Clerks". Stanley Open Database '.\data\eFir' Select ClerkName, SystemID...

    Mark, Help says... The default scope for LOCATE is ALL records. If this is the reason, isn't all records already in scope without the LOCATE? Thanks, Stanley

    Hi Mark, I found my M$ "Microsoft Visual Foxpro 6.0 Programmers Guide" book that has so much about remote views and the best reference yet. It survived... It was part of my flooded book collection that was laid out to dry after literally prying them out of the shelf. The books were stuffed...

    Hi Mark, Thanks for the sample code as it will help. While studying your demo code I ran across a "locate" and wondering why it is placed there? I've always used it with parameters. Here is a screenshot. Thanks, Stanley

    Thanks Mark, OK, I see how you address the field objects EXCEPT for the very first line after my select statement. Look at the 1st line in your snippet. You are using the same as mine that is erroring on that first line and never get to the field items below. I'm trying to make the RV...
