    PROTECTED hDevice, channel / What does the statement PROTECTED provide

    I built this program about 15 to 20 years ago and I completely forgot what this keyword "PROTECTED" provides. If you need to see it in context here is a snippet of the code... VFP sees it as part of its language code by Highlighting it and uppercasing it as you type it in. I guess I got old...

    What causes the highlighting of coded code text to reverse the highlighting?

    I had a bad FOXUSER.DBF file and made the mistake of copying it into each Project's subdirectory. I looked and found a good one and copied it in its stead. ... back to normal. Mike, Chris, Mannib, and Tamar... Thank you all for the help! That was just my gaff. But it sure is a doozy...

    Pinning down the Data Session, Command, Call Stack, Locals, and Debug Output windows

    Mannib Now, that is an interesting idea. And that is why I tried to separate the FOXUSER.DBF Resource files. I often do different things with different projects. And that is exactly why I separated them. Now that I have found which one is busted, I will delete it and go back to my old way...

    The globality of FOXUSER.DBF.

    Mike There are things that I still take for granted. I have done wild things in my days, but there are many things that I should have learned long ago and still have a hazy insight. This one was a doozy. I was trying to make sure that one project did not mess up another. I made tools to...

    The globality of FOXUSER.DBF.

    To Everyone who participated/followed this thread I finally figured out the Highlighting issue. It has everything to do with the FOXUSER.DBF file. In the Environment Manager, I unified 2 of the Projects to refer to the same FOXUSER.DBF file and that source project is the one that does not...

    The globality of FOXUSER.DBF.

    Chriss, You said: "So I rather would look into font or windows issues than any VFP files." Some of my new projects are causing this. It is not universal, Chriss. Like I said before, Most of my old projects are just fine with the Bold font signaling code. It is happening in the...

    What causes the highlighting of coded code text to reverse the highlighting?

    Chriss, It must have something to do with the XXXXXXX.PJX file. I think that I deleted one record from one of the PJX files and it propagated the error somehow. VFP does not manage the Project (PJX) files adequately if you work with several projects in the same session. You have to install...

    What causes the highlighting of coded code text to reverse the highlighting?

    Chriss, Here is the Methods window: I think it is OK... Dennis Kean Simplicity is the extreme degree of sophistication. Leonardo da Vinci

    The globality of FOXUSER.DBF.

    I have been hesitating concerning how the FOXUSER.DBF file should be used. Should each Project have a FOXUSER.DBF file set in its own directory, or can we use the FOXUSER.DBF file within its Installation directory like: From the Environment Manager I notice that you can choose any location...

    What causes the highlighting of coded code text to reverse the highlighting?

    Mike, Something else, I should say about that impossible reversal of Highlights... Some of my Projects in the Environment behave normally. But some Newer Projects come up that way once I invoke them through the Environment Manager. Others come up normal, but once I invoke one with that flaw...

    Mike, I clicked on your Link "Visual FoxPro articles, tips and downloads"... You rock, Dude! Great tips! Thanks... Dennis Kean Simplicity is the extreme degree of sophistication. Leonardo da Vinci

    What causes the highlighting of coded code text to reverse the highlighting?

    Chriss, Yes, I set my colors according to my way of seeing things. I sure hope that I will not have to reinstall VFP 9.0 ... Dennis Kean Simplicity is the extreme degree of sophistication. Leonardo da Vinci

    What causes the highlighting of coded code text to reverse the highlighting?

    Mike and Chriss No, it seems to be just fine in the Properties window. Do your Properties windows look like this? Dennis Kean Simplicity is the extreme degree of sophistication. Leonardo da Vinci

    What causes the highlighting of coded code text to reverse the highlighting?

    Messing with the former problem, (with Resources), I now suddenly have this strange effect. If anyone has seen and cured this problem, please let me know... The Click, MouseDown, and RightClick have code are they are not highlighted. The events that have no code, however, are highlighted...

    Thank you Chriss... Appreciate your tip about the Resource file location on the Options window. I completely forgot about that. Dennis Kean Simplicity is the extreme degree of sophistication. Leonardo da Vinci

    Pinning down the Data Session, Command, Call Stack, Locals, and Debug Output windows

    Mike Every bit helps. It probably does have to do with SET RESOURCE TO and I found some info on the MS forum that suggests it. Is there anything like "? RESOURCE" that interrogates if it is turned on or which FoxUser.dbf file it is wired into? I've tried everything I could think of...

    Pinning down the Data Session, Command, Call Stack, Locals, and Debug Output windows

    Mike You said: "I dock one inside the other, with tabs to switch between them." That is not useful on the bottom. My screen has a lot of real estate, so I do not have a need to convolve them into a single frame. It speeds things up because you can see everything at once. A click of the mouse...

    Pinning down the Data Session, Command, Call Stack, Locals, and Debug Output windows

    Mike, they all are grouped together. If I raise the ceiling on the Command Window, all 5 raise their ceiling in unison! Dennis Kean Simplicity is the extreme degree of sophistication. Leonardo da Vinci

    Pinning down the Data Session, Command, Call Stack, Locals, and Debug Output windows

    If you mean docking to be along the border, YES! On the right side, I dock the Watch window into the Trace window. On the bottom, I docked the Data Session window first, then docked the Command window into it, then the Locals Window on the right side of the Command window, then the Debug...
