    Thanks Chip, that's what I had suspected, just making sure I was on right track.

    Reading / Writing Files, What's the most efficient way

    I put together an app for my company which splits large text files (3gb+) into two files so that some of our other software may work with the files. This app was done in VB. I was recently introduced to C# (last week) and was expecting it to be faster / more efficient. But when I finished the...

    Report form keeping PDF file open at end of report

    Sorry for bringing up this old thread...at any rate, I found a "solution" if you want to call it that. http://www.tek-tips.com/viewthread.cfm?qid=722247 I use the API code posted in that thread to close it after it makes the file. Hopefully the bandaid will hold.

    VFP 6 Executable Clear Events doesn't seem to take place?

    I'm calling the form with a main.prg. From that form I call the foxpro executable. I'm calling the executable using the Run Command. If I remove the line "thisform.release" and instead just click the [x] in the upper right of the form, it works fine..closes. It's just having it...

    VFP 6 Executable Clear Events doesn't seem to take place?

    no. I have one foxpro app that I built as an executable that on activate calls a button click. In the button click I have it run some code and then call thisform.release. In the release event I had clear events. That is an executable. I have another foxpro app that I am using to call it as...

    VFP 6 Executable Clear Events doesn't seem to take place?

    clear events is in the release event of the form thisform.release is part of the button. I just stepped through it. It's going into the release event, and it runs the clear events command...at least i stepped into it anyway, but it doesn't actually clear events? blah.

    VFP 6 Executable Clear Events doesn't seem to take place?

    I have one Foxpro application which I am merely running from the Foxpro environment calling another foxpro application as an executable with the run command. The other executable starts up just fine and runs through all the steps I want it to, but it doesn't shut down properly? A form is shown...

    strange character in field

    This is the reason for my index issue thread earlier. It took some looking into but i believe this is the problem. I get my data from a website which allows me to save the data to an excel file in my HD. The Excel Spreadsheet does have formatting (colored rows, bold fonts, etc..). When I...

    Indexes not working.

    Indexes not working.

    I need some help before i throw my monitor out the window. Believe it or not I've been using Foxpro for 3 years, everything from 2.5 to ver 6 currently. With that aside, I have a table. I have two indexes in a cdx. one index works, one doesn't. why? why when i seek in one does it work...

    how to import data with accents from access

    I had a similar problem with converting Accents in Fox for DOS 2.5 tables to VFP 6.0. When I used the DOS tables in VFP, all accents were converted into some other character such as a comma or a plus sign, etc.. I discovered that with Windows, data supports several codepages based on...

    Newbie with pivot tables, rows are auto sorted?

    It's already set up as manual. It's taking the rows from the spreadsheet and sorting them on the new sheet containing the pivot table.

    Newbie with pivot tables, rows are auto sorted?

    I will have code updating a data set. That's not a problem. My main problem is that the rows are auto sorted. Excel tries to do too much. Well I have three surveys which have common core of questions, but there are also other questions that make them different. Client would like to see how...

    Newbie with pivot tables, rows are auto sorted?

    Geoff, you are correct in assuming I am a typical Excel user. While I am a programmer, I have never done anything too advanced with Excel. This is actually for a project I'm working on for a client. My boss went to one programmer with a question about reporting for the project, and then came...
