I am working on a project to make an XY table controlled with a PC using stepper motors. I have found quite a bit of information on the subject and just found telepathy for RS232 communication through Clipper on this forum.
One choice I have is a turnkey system that has C and other library...
This one I just tried, You install it, select the .exe programs you want to be able to use the ports and thats it. Any program that works on Windows 98 will work on NT and XP.

I am working on a project using the LPT port to control stepper motors. Here is a link to a program called INPOUT and a description of the difference between what Windows NT and XP do now that causes problems interfaceing with this port.

Make a test program that simply reindexes the database and see if you get the error. I just opened the Blinker 7.0 box a few minutes ago. My program is small compared to yours but with exospace the MEMORY() function gives me only 94 on my opening menu. With the following script I get 64993. The...
I am using windows grep and Boxer editor. On order is Blinker 7.0 and I am using Clipper 5.3.
I have 6 programs written 10 or more years ago that share 42 database files and index files. I need to make changes to all of them to allow input of more than 4 digets on a job number. So I have to...
Well I dug out my old Blinker 1.0 and tested it. It all runs fine, retested with exospace and error 8002 on index files.
Looking further here is some more poop on error8002

Going to give blinker latest version a try now. If that works good i...
One thing more on dates. I used in my old programs the system date date() to default the date on an input screen. Here is the rub stanley, without Epoch set the date shows up as 01/20/04 however if the client changes that date for example to 01/21/04 for say a packing slip that he is post...
Where can I get a good example of useful menu, you know, a good one that can be used as main menu with sub-options?
I use a menu system I wrote in clipper. I would be happy to put it up for anyone to use. Some of the code I think was assembler linked in for doing shadows on the menu but the...
I am just taking on 6 clipper programs that access 43 databases from more than ten years ago. I just started using Grep for windows and Boxer to edit. I am using Clipper 5.3 but I don't know where I can get an upgrade to 5.3b yet.
I use exospace and run a novell network. I made a boo boo ten...
Cancell that last post and Thank you very much BPeisch it works. I never touched that box so I wonder how it got unchecked? O well i don't care about that as long as it works now. Ahhhh, I can sleep now thanks again.
Nope rebooted and tried new directory new files and it just isn't working any more. Unless I can figure this out I am just going to have to reinstall foxPro I guess. pretty crazy.
Using 6.0, and yep I checked there, I dont find any IDE settings anywhere to set. It was doing it just fine forever and suddenly just stopped. Maby I will reboot machine it could be something in the system time and date environment variable or something. If that was altered to a date after...

I make a file

and run it its fine

I am using an inline frame to display a slide show. Instead of using thumbnails I would like to use 2 buttons, Forward and Back. Do I need to do this in PHP or is there a way to do it with an HTML page? It would also be nice if i could have 2 inline frames and load text in one and the picture in...
I do not see where I can adjust the line spaceing I know about SHIFT return but I am talking about text wrapping automatically to the next line in a paragraph. Using Franklin Gothic Medium. I would also like to be able to set the font to a default font because it keeps defaulting as times new roman.
