    Error after installing our application

    Ah, Framework. That part of Paradox is so rarely used that I don't think the developers rate it very highly (if at all) on their bug list. Would it be a lot of work to re-jig the application to work with just forms and tables etc.? It would perhaps save you a lot of hassle in the future. How...

    How long is Paradox going to Live?

    Have you visited www.prestwood.com/forums/paradox/books/official/files ?There is a file there (official.zip) containing a load of sample forms which contain pretty much everything you need to get started. They're really very good. Don't worry about there not being a guide for Pdox 10. All...

    Cannot print landscape orientation via OPAL in ver. 7/8/9

    This is a known problem in versions 7\8\9. The problem is with the PrinterOptionInfo method, so instead of using this method : 1) Users can try putting PrinterGetInfo in the INIT method of a form, or use the following code which prints (in this example) a report called CLIENT.RSL in...

    Paradox Lock File Problem

    Hi, Sorry for the delay, just found this site. With the combination of Pdox 5 & 9 * Novell, there are four things to be aware of (as Lance mentioned), namely 1. Update client 32 2. Set local share to True in the BDE 3. Opportunistic locking 4. Correct Net Dir alias But users must also shut...

    Distribution editor ...

    Sorry for the delay, just found this site ! 1. Like Lance said, Runtime is there for you to use as you like. However one runtime license is required per seat i.e. a copy must be purchased for every machine it's installed on. 2. Keep away from Application Framework !! I couldn't tell customers...

    Setting the background

    Just copy and paste in the image, then in design mode choose Format | Order | Send to back (Pdox 9), so that it doesn't cover the rest of your objects. Works in all versions, but the 'send to back' option is found in different places depending on version. Darragh Quinn

    Publishing Paradox Data on the Internet

    Hi Steve, Anybody doing anything remotely serious with Paradox needs to subscribe to the newsgroup CNEWS.COREL.COM, and sign up for corelsupport.paradox9.webxxxx etc. There's quite a few subgroups under the banner CNEWS.COREL.COM - or at least there was a few years ago, I've been out of the...

    Button problems in Windows 2000 installation of Paradox 7

    I remember running P7 under Win 2000 when it first released and noticing that the GUI was seriously affected. You can try out Lance's suggestions in the tech. doc. but I think that might only apply to XP and NT. I mentioned it to the head of Paradox at the time and got the equivalent of a...

    What is the Netsetup.exe file for and how do I use it?

    As I recall, Netsetup.exe is just used for installing the Corel application itself, and doesn't relate to setting up the network for database access. This might help : CONFIGURING THE BDE TO RUN PARADOX IN A NETWORK ENVIRONMENT =========================================================== In...

    run paradox 7 as a service or in the background?

    Just to clarify - there is no way of displaying the form without Paradox, no way of creating executables, if that's what you were implying. Darragh Quinn

    run paradox 7 as a service or in the background?

    Hi, In 32-bit Pdox 7 .... You have to declare the form as a dialog box (Form | Window style, choose Dialog box) and then hide the application using the following code (try it out on a pushbutton): var app application endvar app.hide() sleep(3000) app.maximize() If it's 16-bit, I think...
