    IE Text Size

    It's set to normal. Here is an example. <font size="1">blah blah</font> shows the exact same as <font size="2">blah blah</font>

    IE Text Size

    That just changes the "text size". My problem is the "medium" text size is incorrect. Its bigger than it is supposed to be.

    IE Text Size

    At work I'm using a machine with WinXP Pro that was used by someone else before me. For some reason the text size in IE (and in some other places) is larger then normal. I have the &quot;text size&quot; set to medium under the &quot;view&quot; menu. If I actually move it to...

    Page Length

    I am printing 68 lines on longer paper that WILL fit all the text. But the printer always stops printing at the regular point of a standard page. I have tried using _plength but it isnt doing anything. Should I be looking into using PCL codes again?

    Margins

    I'm using: @0,0 SAY CHR(027)+CHR(038)+CHR(108)+CHR(048)+CHR(069) But it is still printing a 1/4&quot; top margin. Any ideas?

    Margins

    Im using dBase IV and printing on an HP laserjet. My problem is I need to print at the very top of the page but it is always putting a about half inch margin. How can I set the top margin so it prints from the very top? Is this even possible?

    Time to Upgrade

    I really appreciate the reply. You have start a spark for me to look into Visual FoxPro. I really had not thought about it. The main issue is printing and being able to create libraries that I can also be use from a web environment. Thanks again for the reply. Derek

    Time to Upgrade

    Well the time has finally come. I have been given to start planning our new system. From what I understand (I have only been at this position for a little less then a year) the orignal system was written in the early 90's dBase IV and has been way outgrown and outdated as you can imagine. So...

    File does not exist &amp; hanging

    Thanks for the reply. Once this arises I give your suggestions a shot. Usually rebooting the workstation does the trick, but for some odd reason, sometimes it doesnt help. As for the &quot;file not found&quot; error, I heard this could because of connection issues?

    File does not exist &amp; hanging

    I should aso mention that we are using netware.

    File does not exist &amp; hanging

    In a multiuser environment, sometimes out of nowhere we will get &quot;file not found&quot; error when trying to USE a DBF on a central server. It is totally out of nowhere. All day it will work, and then randomly we will get &quot;file not found&quot;. I dont know if the two are related, but...

    Running External Program

    Problem solved. I had to add the &quot;-3&quot; switch when calling pkunzip. This is odd because I don't have to use it when I call pkunzip from the dos prompt. Anyways the &quot;-3&quot; is for: &quot;Disable 32-bit instruction usage on 80386 or higher CPU's&quot;

    Running External Program

    It is pkunzip that is causing my problems. If i call any other program it works. If i create a batch file that contins has just &quot;pkunzip&quot; in it, and i call that batch file, it crashes. What other dos program can i use to unzip?

    Running External Program

    I have no idea what the error number is because when that line gets executed: !pkunzip -d myfile.zip my application completely closes. No errors, it just closes.

    Running External Program

    Alright, I am using dBase IV and I am trying to call pkunzip from within my application. pkunzip and the file im trying to unzip are located in the same directory as the application. !pkunzip -d myfile.zip All this does is crash my application. So my question is, how can I call an external...

    Workarea?

    ...workearea. Is a workarea a record that was being worked on. So for example: USE customer INDEX customer_name.ndx FIND &quot;Bob Dole&quot; * Some code * GOTO 1 * Some Code * SELECT 1 && Does this go back to the &quot;bob dole&quot; record? SELECT 2 && Does this go to record 1 Is that...
