I recently installed VS 2017 and went to create a COM object project and was notified the minimum supported OS would be a build of Windows 10. Is that in fact the case, or might it still work with Windows 7? If I develop on a Win 7 box would it just be a matter of what does the compiling? I...

I don't see it documented either but it is recognized. Visually it looks identical to wdPasteShape. I can't remember where I got 14 from. 14 seems to be an image copy of wdPasteShape. The formatting of the graphs are retained when the document is later opened in Word 2010 but with wdPasteShape...

I'd love to hear if there is a better solution but I defined a 1x1 working table in word and did the pastespecial there then I copied that result and did the normal paste into where I actually wanted it. At the end of the process I delete the working table.

Hi all, I am trying to pastespecial an image into a specific cell in a word table. When I use the simple paste it is placed into the correct cell but when I use pastespecial it always goes into the 1st column of the table. I'm in Office 2013 and creating a chart in Excel and then trying to...

I am creating excel driven ODBC SQL reports on a Sybase 16 database and some of the numeric fields have precision too high for the Excel ODBC driver. I am not at all concerned with precision loss - I am happy with <15 decimals. Without handling Excel is simple crashing upon the rs.Open cSQL...

For a PDF to Text utility try xpdfbin-win-3.03.zip from http://foolabs.com/xpdf/download.html. It has an option to preserve format and can be called via shell execute or drag and drop.

In the past I created a prg that programatically set everything to my preference and made it the startup script. Very helpful when you want the same environment and feel from multiple machines too. In addition to the standard _screen.width etc this faq can help with other particulars...

The issue was only manifesting with VFP. I updated the mouse driver (the system actually automatically 'updated' it by rolling a 2008 driver back to a 2006 driver) and logged out and back in and it seems to be working for now. Got to love Windows xD. Thanks

Hi guys! I have a problem... The standard menu in a VFP install on a Server 2008 R2 isn't responsive to mouse clicks but responds to Alt+Key shortcuts. Clicking on it seems to be selecting the toolbar instead. An additional symptom is that I cannot move or resize the _screen except through...

See my FAQs for better formatted output, ability to make workbooks quickly and freedom from memo field limitations.

I love VFP and wish it was going to stick around. That said, if you want to convert your learning into jobs and cash, you will get a better bang for your investment with learning Java, C#, VB/VBA (.NET) and SQL Server/Oracle. Sad but true.

Historically much of my work had been to import/manipulate/output tens of thousands of files in thousands of directories with unique .prg files in each directory for the file(s). Thus this works well for me. Maybe it is less helpful for pure developers.

oExcel=CREATEOBJECT("excel.application") ?oExcel.Version ?oExcel.DefaultSaveFormat oExcel.Quit

xlWorkbookNormal value is -4143. If you ssaveas with that constant doesn't the appropriate extension get added if you don't specify? Sorry I can't test right now.

Styles provide a default format by data type in the example, such as commas for numeric fields with 2 decimals; and can be cutomized for particular fields etc. The code in the FAQ is based on logic developed for a custom report writer I put together and I spent a lot of time figuring out the...

Thanks for pointing out the space in path issue. I'll fix it right away. I usually avoid spaces in my directories... It opens the directory in explorer too. I don't know about everyone else but I often want to open Excel files etc and I appreciate not having to navigate to a directory in VFP...

Hi everyone! I haven't been around much at all lately and don't use VFP everyday like I used to. I've been using this trick for years and just had to set it up on a new install. Hope someone else out there finds it helpful. Quickly navigate/set default to a directory faq184-7360 Brian

I must point out: Export a Formatted Table to Excel using HTML faq184-4704 Customize and needed. Cheers

If you can use DOS to FTP try a script like this. [code] lcScript = "open ftp.yoursite.com" + CHR(10) +; "username" + CHR(10) + ; "password" + CHR(10)+ ; "binary" + CHR(10) + ; "cd ./TargetDir" + CHR(10) + ; "lcd " + lcDataFolder + CHR(10) + ; "put...
