    format is lost when "Print Preview"

    Hi! The following is what I have at the top of my page. It passes the W3C HTML Validator with no errors, but when I do a Print Preview it sometimes doesnt format correctly. I think my problems may be in the last 3 lines but I haven't found any clear explinations yet. Previously I used a linked...

    add this "foPartialCompare" where?

    Thanks, hilfy, I'll try to explain a little differently. I wish to use a wild card in my lookup search, currently it will not accept the " * " as valid. I may be offtrack (common) but the book says to add foPartialCompare to FilterOptions which will allow "*" as a valid...

    add this "foPartialCompare" where?

    Hi! The filters for my lookup program are hand coded. I understand that if they were defined in the Object Inspector I could add to the FilterOptions to include foPartialCompare. I wish to allow a " * " wild card in the searches. What wording in the hand coding do I look for so that I...

    accept wildcard in stringgrid lookup

    I believe it is set up using TTable with an Advantage local client server, as the search is implemented using Filters. TStringGrid accepts the user inputs and matches are displayed in the TDBGrid, nothing but the user input shows in the StringGrid. I do not fully understand exactly how the...

    accept wildcard in stringgrid lookup

    Hi, I am using a TStringGrid and a TDBGrid in a lookup program, and would like to add the capability to search using a wildcard like " * " in the search. All 4 search fields are Character fields. Could someone shed some light on how I need to go about doing this? Thanks! Cliff

    SaveFile not SaveDialog

    Ok I commented out the "Execute" line, but nothing happened when I clicked the Save button because I have not specified where it is to be saved. So I need to set the directory... (MyPath+'PPL Jan/*.htm')...to a variable and add it into the ... SaveDialog1.FileName :=(...

    SaveFile not SaveDialog

    The truth is ..I don't know how to do it or what to use. It seems that SaveFile would work if I new how to implement it. Currently I am only capable of modifying existing code and I haven't found an example that I can understand yet. Thanks

    SaveFile not SaveDialog

    Hi ! 1) I don't need the user selecting the name (it is selected by the code). 2) I don't need the user selecting the directory .(it will be selected by the code) My problem is that I can't get the the code correct so it will save programatically, without user input. Thanks

    text input that drives data results sample ?

    Karen, Very new at this ... What you sent may work but where do I put it? The book is not clear concerning this. The following is from Unit1.pas. I would prefer to learn this to using the Object Inspector if possible. Thanks for your response! unit Unit1; interface uses Windows, Messages...
