Thanks again Dan.
I am working in visual foxpro the whole time. The command window is open. The project is open. I run the application from the command window.
In the main program code, in the project of my application(my program that will run on the clients computers) , I have a line...
Thanks :) When I quit the app and go into the data session window on the visual foxpro menu, the tables open in the same way. All of them - One big giant grid with nothing on it, but showing a record count at the bottom. When I restart foxpro and open the app, the browcase program works at...
Sure enough. I restart visual foxpro. Opened the application. Closed it without hitting my command browse button. The I went to data session and browsed the database and all was find. I opened the application again, the program browcase worked before the form was opened, but when I hit the...
Ok. Now I don't have the program open. The databases are pen. When I go to data session from the window menu and hit browse on any of the databases - Same thing happen ---- A huge empty browse screen that only shows the number of record its on. I am just in the work area of visual fox pro...
I thought about that idea. But the form itself is filled with buttons and text fields and includes four page frames. While I indeed increased the size of the form from the original tiny 2.6 form. I wonder if there is a way to maybe call the grid from a command button? I am trying to keep...
Hello again. In creating this new vfp9 form from a 2.6 program, I have several buttons that are supposed to browse particular data. Keeping it simple: I have command button that is supposed to pull up the main data. In the click event I have - Do browcase.prg. What is happening is that its...
Hello again. I am rewriting a multi database application in visual 9 from 2.6. A customer of mine bought windows 8.1 and needs the upgrade asap. No virtual PC or Hyper V so I told her I would stop what I am doing and complete the conversion.
Now, there are currently seven daily users that...
Very creative analogy. I am almost done with this one project, but will take your advice and open my mind some more. On my next customers project I will learn more about classes. Time is essential now. Once I have at least one app in place and running, I will have more time to reflect and...
I will play around with this approach. It does sound more solid. When I said I was trying to avoid anything non 2.6 as I could, what I really meant I am trying to keep the rebuilding as simple as possible with what I already know. But looking back, I built an entire complex form with four...
Thanks Tamar. But I am trying to stay away from classes and anything non 2.6 as I can. I was left with converting several Worthless Check applications into Visual and I am going to keep it simple as possible. I know I have to rebuild the forms but that is all I am going to do. When it comes...
I would have know that parenthesis would be the source of my frustration. The story may be long winded, does not matter as long as it works. lol. Thanks again! :)
You guys are great. Dave I did look at the value property and can see the possibilities with it. Thanks. Olaf, problem solved, what I was not doing was putting the parenthesis around the ck_paid + da_paid + fee_paid in the control source. I did and now everything works fine! Thanks! In Fox...
Hello again. Thanks for all the help in the past. I have managed to convert all my 2.6 forms into beautiful visual forms but I am having a problem with some of the text fields that in the past converted payments into totals. I have tried everything. Here is what I am trying to do. On my...
Thanks Olaf and everyone else for all the help! I think I have enough to go on from here. I made the appropriate changes to one of my page frame screens and it appears to be working okay. Once I get it to a point where I think the new VFP application is usable, I will have my clients...
Much appreciate the replies! Thanks very much! I think I am trying to over analyze it. My goodness!, it can't be that easy?!
What I did after converting each screen to VFP was copy and paste the controls to each corresponding Page Frame. Now, from what I understand, all I need to do is go...
Thanks for the replies. In old 2.6 I used the genscreen tab system. I had four databases and four tabs: Case, Defendant, Merchant, Payment.
The master database was Case. When the user clicked on the Defendant tab, he or she would be taken to that unique defendant as it related to that case(a...
Hello again. Long time 2.6 user and trying to convert my program to visual 9. Thanks to the generous help with my first thread, I have made this:
I create a form. I stretched a four tabbed page frame over it and labeled the tabs: Case, Defendant, Merchant, Payment. On each of these page...
