Chris, Kilroy! change CurrentControl property of that column to the object you just pasted (the checkbox) Much Joy Kilroy! That was the missing link! Can't tell you guys how long I've searched for this info. I love Tek-Tips! Regards - Wayne Let there be peace on earth, let it begin with me

Mike and Chris, Thanx for taking the time to help me with this. My copy is VFP70 "Make sure you have the Form Controls Toolbar visible." Okay...No Trouble "Right click on the grid and select Edit." Okay...No Trouble...Light Blue box appears around grid "Left click on the checkbox in the...

Hi! Could someone explain to me how to add a checkbox (image) to the textbox in a grid based on a logical datatype? IOW if .T. show a checkbox checked... if .F. just show the square box. Is this done with a wingdings font, or a gif? Whenever I've pursued this question on the web, the authors...

Mike; Well FPA is still being published, but imho it is nowhere near what it once was in it's glory days. I think my mentor [and former editor] Tamara Gaynor has also moved on. I also lament the defection of Miriam Liskin to VBA. Sadly, I see the demise of other hard-copy publications as...

per craigsboyd... I agree with craig 100%. I dunno if Foxpro just attracts a better person, or because we are basicaly xBase users, we are a statisticly older group who have spent a long time doing this. I first got my start on foxforums on the old Compu$erve FoxForum, using a DOS based...

Gosh! Some really great ideas from my peers! imho, I agree with the clarity issue that jimstarr raised. My solution was to define a method on the form and pass it a logical variable. Hope my 26 roots don't show 2 much.... method = "tShowGets" called as... thisform.tShowGets(.F.) tShowGets...

Rick; Would I have to remove VFP70 to play with 90? TIA - Wayne

Thank-You very much for all your suggestions. Not by my machine right now, but your kindness has shown me many different ways. Take care! Wayne

I'm looking for an example of using the Win API to rename a file. I know the current file name and path, and want to keep the file in the same directory but execute the REN command on it.Any issues with "long file names" iow "My data 1stQtr.dbf" Do the spaces cause any issues? TIA - Wayne

Thank-You Ramani! I just couldn't get it through the wizard. Your solution worked fine. Funny thing about the GROUP BY...always worked in a regular select, used the distinct command instead, and it worked like a charm! God Bless you and your family! Regards - Wayne

Established local Database. Added Table to database. Trying to add a Local View of data on one field only. Using "View Wizard". When I add a "sort on" I get zero data in the view. SQL query seems correct. I'd prefer to write my own if possible, but am unclear on how to add the view to the dbc...

VFP70 I am on a intranet. I need to connect vfp from a workstation to a local XML database on the server. I have no idea what XML db it is. How would I go about doing this? I am very limited in my [xml] knowledge in this area. TIA - Wayne

Mike; Thanx for taking the time to respond... Could I ask you to be more specific. I tried adding it as a method to the current form that calls the report, and no joy. TIA - Wayne

...use this function... SET CENTURY OFF CLEAR ? Longdate({^1998-02-16}) && Displays Monday, February 16, 98 SET CENTURY ON ? Longdate({^1998-02-16}) && Displays Monday, February 16, 1998 *** LongDate *** FUNCTION longdate PARAMETERS gdDate RETURN CDOW(gdDate) + ', ' + MDY(gdDate) TIA - Wayne

greggb; SELECT * ; FROM mydbf ; WHERE ([Z] $ UPPER(myfield1)) * OR SELECT * ; FROM mydbf ; WHERE ([Z] $ UPPER(myfield1) ; OR ([Z] $ UPPER(mfield2)) ; OR ([ABC] $ UPPER(mfield3))) HTH - Wayne

[sigh] There are just some days I hate foxpro. Anyways...10 hours later....I could see no need for a child window named "browserwind". [imho] the only thing it was doing was providing a "sizing" template for the MSIE app window. I do not see any advantage to autosizing. I can do that myself...

So am I correct in assuming that res is a junk variable that can be discarded? I'm thinking now I am passing the wrong parameter to the takewindow proc. One of the examples shown is... res = takewindow(oWrd.caption) I'm trying to run the method with these parameters...

Mike, your solution worked perfectly. Once the object "pathing" issue was resolved, code worked a-ok! Please forgive me for starting to cross forum disciplines, but this is all this related to the automation faq184-2555 I am currently "chasing" the positioning of the Parent/Child/MSIE winds...

Thank-You to all who are contributing to my knowledge about this. I have followed Mike Gagnon's suggestion... "Create a property in your form (call it oWeb)" and am now faced with these issues... Since the child wind is "linked" to the parent through a FormSet, I was unable to add the...

...solution. Here's another possibility. CLEAR SELECT mydata SCAN jnTmpLineNo = 0 FOR jnTmpLineNo = 1 TO 5 STEP 1 && 5 - or whatever * convert the different data types to "character" ? DTOC(dmyDate)+SPACE(1)+SUBSTR(myMemo,1,25); +SPACE(1)+ALLTRIM(myCharData) SKIP...
