    Prob. w/ Chris` SuperCombo

    This is a bit much, but here it is. It is ugly - I've been grasping at straws, changing and all sorts of stuff to try and find an answer. ************************************************** **** Text1.GotFocus this.value = '' THISform.grdSuperCombo.RECORDSOURCE = "&quot...

    Prob. w/ Chris` SuperCombo

    I am using the SuperCombo ( a grid called by a text box ) but have one small problem. I have the supercombo object in the form, and have two text boxes that call it. One calles it to search for a client chart number, the other calls it to search for a client by name. Everything works as...

    App needs Office ????

    I have an app that uses a calendar. When I install the compiled version on an XP machine without MS-Office, the app starts looking for a file of some sort (.OCX). If Office is installed, I do not get the message. What should I look for??

    Browse in Window

    Your answer is correct, but that doesn't mean I like it. All I wanted was a simple browse window. I have trouble controlling grids, and I don't want to take the time to get a grid to do all the things I can do from a browse window. Browse does all I need, without doing any extra coding...

    Browse in Window

    The problem is, I never see the browse window, just the calling form. Esc and Ctrl-W have no effect.

    Browse in Window

    I want to pull a browse up. Seems pretty simple. But.... if I just issue a browse command, my screen is messed up when I come back out of the browse screen. So..., I tried the following thinking that if I browsed in a seperate window, all would be ok. This is in a click event. DEFINE...

    Best method of calling programs from form ?

    I have 8 programs that I want to call from a single form. The form is simple, with a couple of data input fields, 8 buttons to call programs, and a quit button. My question: What is the best method of calling the 8 programs? For example: In the click put a DO PROGNAME ? Add the...

    Combine Table Structures ?

    What you say sounds good, but.... I want to take the resultant table, load it with a subset of the original tables, and use it to drive a list. I can't get a list to use related tables.

    Combine Table Structures ?

    What is the best way to combine the fields from 3 tables into one new table? I want to keep them in a dbc as I don't want to lose my long field names, and I sure don't want to manually build the new tables. Fields of like names should be in new table just once. Any ideas?

    exe flashes form, then quits

    I know this has been answered here before but I can't find it and am having amnesia. Simple form, build exe, when run the form flashes on screen and drops back out. I have tried changin mode/modeless, win on top, etc.. Created a calling prg with readevents to no avail. What am I forgetting?

    Cant display list, combo, or drop lists properly

    I wonder if the street dept. needs someone to pick up trash? I can't get my list, combo, or drop down lists to display records properly. I have tried all three with the same effect. I have a simple table - name, address, etc.. in a dbc. I create an object (list, etc.) and use the builder to...

    Clear text box when receiving focus

    It all started when I could not get selected on entry to work. I was grabbing at straws to clear the box when I came back into it. I finally found that if I used the builder and chose selected on entry, it worked. At this point, I don't know why the normal setting it in properties did not...

    Clear text box when receiving focus

    I am having trouble clearing text boxes when they receive focus. This requires the user to backspace or highlight/delete before typing in new info. What have I done wrong? I don't want to have to put this.value = "" in each gotfocus event.

    Controlling grids - losing focus - part II

    When I leave a grid I want to go to a particular object. I can not set focus from a click or valid statement. I do not see a lost focus method in the grid properties. Am I just missing it? If not, how do I control where the focus goes when leaving it. Changing tab order does not seem to be...

    Record help, need specific, its finding closest

    I recommend that you not use locate but use seek instead. With large numbers of records, locate takes a looooong time. It looks at each and every record, while seek jumps to the record.

    Controlling grids - losing focus

    Maybe I'm not sure about sequence of events. If I put a setfocus() in my grid.click, does the valid statement still execute? I have a text box that updates a grid as I type in it. When I get enough of a name to get close to the right one, the user clicks on the grid, scrolls up or down until...

    What are the best methods to protect your application from being copied and sold while cutting you out of the loop? Is there another forum that might be a better place to discuss this issue? Mike
