Thanks Borislav, Tamor, for your help. Andy.

Hi all. I have a memo field in a DBF that holds up to 5 lines of an address. I would like to create a cursor file with the 5 extracted lines of character data and export that to an Excel file, but I seem to be having a few problems with the MLINE function. Is there a better way? Thanks. Andy.

Thanks Geoff, Mike. I'll leave it up to the users. A.

Hi all. I would like to turn off the sounds made during running of my application, say when user clicks on a "Save" button, or an information message is displayed. I've tried adding SET BELL OFF to my startup program but this doesn't seem to make any difference. Many thanks. Andy.

Thanks for all your input. I think I'll just recreate the system in VFP9 based on the original - it sounds like the easiest option. Andy.

That's a shame, because it was not just one form I was thinking about - it was rather a complex series of forms. Thanks Geoff.

Hi all. What is the best way to convert a form from FoxPro2.6 to VFP9? Thanks.

Thanks Bill. Just in case you were wondering, the only reason I am thinking of doing this is to prevent the users from installing multiple copies of the software - you buy one license and you can use it once. I suppose if someone really wanted to make copies they would find some way of doing it...

Thanks Mike, Craig. I'll have to think about this one. It is true that the customer might install the software and need to remove and reinstall again, for whatever reason, and that would just be a major hassle. Thanks for your comments. Andy.

Hi Mike. What I mean is just install the copy ONCE on ANY computer. Andy.

Hi all. I have an application written in VFP9 and it is installed using the Windows Installer and InstallShield. What I would like to do is make it so you can successfully install the application ONCE ONLY. After successful install the software doesn't install anymore. Is there a code or error...

Thanks Borislav. I'll try that. Andy.

Hi all. I have a SQL Select statement and I want to select only the records where the "activity" character field contains a pre-defined string. The code is like: SELECT * FROM table ; WHERE THISFORM.activity_search.Value$table.activity=.T. ; INTO CURSOR tmpcursor Will that do it, because it...

Thanks for all your comments. I think I'll just leave it the way it is. Andy.

Thanks Olaf. But using the Visual FoxPro InstallShield V5.0, where you specify the shortcut for the application, you are asked to provide an icon for the desktop. Why on some machines would it display the icon correctly and on others something totally different? I do not comprehend! When the...

Hi all. I have written an application using VFP9 and it is installed using the InstallShield FoxPro Ltd version. I specify a shortcut icon and I include this icon on the startup disk, but on some machines (laptops in particular) it reverts to something completely different. I have to find a way...

Hi all. When "previewing" a report, can the Preview Toolbar be suppressed leaving the user to scroll through the report instead of clicking from page to page? Andy.

Thanks Mike - you weren't stating the obvious, I was overlooking the obvious...

Hi all. I have an install program written using the InstallShield for FoxPro v5.0 - and I have specified that the desktop icon should be a certain file. When the application is installed on some machines the icon is different (it somehow adopts the icon that is the windows installer icon). Why...

Thanks Geoff. I'll try that.
