    emucode, On the machine that is locking up do Ctl-Alt-Del and click the Task Manager button. Processor usage is at the bottom. If processor usage is at 100% it will take quite a while for the Task Manager to show up. Can you start another program or is the XP computer totally locked up? Also...

    [SET PRINTER TO] CR/LF as last char instead of FormFeed

    Hi Dirk, Playing around on my handy-dandy Okidata ML 320, I found that when I issued the EJECT, _PLENGTH number of LFCR's went to the printer. Interesting. Regards, Mike

    [SET PRINTER TO] CR/LF as last char instead of FormFeed

    Hi Dirk, My understanding of _PADVANCE and _PLENGTH is that when _PADVANCE="LINEFEEDS" and an EJECT is issued linefeeds are sent to the printer until _PLENGTH is reached. You probaly need to SET PRINTER TO NAME "intermec" prior to setting _LINEFEEDS. The other possibility is to create a...

    [SET PRINTER TO] CR/LF as last char instead of FormFeed

    Hi Dirk, Check the system variable _PADVANCE. If you set it to LINEFEEDS and use _PLENGTH you may be closer to what you need. Regards, Mike

    Unusual Form Behavior

    I had a user that while in Wordperfect or some other random program, while typing, all of a sudden she would be popped back to the desktop with explorer windows, find windows, run windows popping up. What windows she got depended on what keys she had actually typed. It acted like a windows key...

    Unusual Form Behavior

    Does pressing both windows keys at the same time twice clear up the problem? Are all of your motherboards the same model?

    unzap works with fp2.6 why not vfp7

    Additionally, If the table was a large one it was spanning many clusters. FCHIZE() will allocate the first available clusters, which may not be the clusters needed. Is the first portion of the data OK and then junk? Regards, Mike

    use table where table is pulled from another table

    Hi Judi, SCAN by itself will default to SCAN ALL. Also SCAN will automagically select it's starting work area, so SELECT (lcTable) isn't necessary before ENDSCAN. You may want to wrap the code to test for a blank record, though. lcTable = "pjtTables" &&this is coming in from othe code CLEAR...
