    One application hosted on one machine run by many users

    You do not need to do anything special when compiling. We put all of our in house apps on a network drive, so that we only have to recompile that version with any chenges. We go to every workstation and install the necessary VB dlls on their local drive, but put ActiveX dlls on the network...

    wildcards

    Using the find function causes VB to loop through the recordset until it finds something that meets your criteria. If nothing is found it goes to EOF. For something as complex as you are doing, I think you will have to sort the rs and then move through it until you find where you want to be...

    Can you pass variables to a Form_Load event procedure?

    Is the the startup form or some subform? If it's a subform you can put a procedure in the subform that has variables passed to it and have that form show itself.

    Can you pass variables to a Form_Load event procedure?

    Is the the first form or some subform? If it's a subform you can put a procedure in the subform that has variables passed to it and have that form show itself.

    VB & SQL Server vs. VBA & Access

    I would guess that you are having network issues (like I was having trying to submit this post). If you are updating the SQL server alot, you are sending a lot of trafiic and waiting for replys, while the Access work is done mostly on your computer. Try building your recordset on the...

    Sending Return Codes from VB

    If your using an ActiveX exe, you should be able to create an event that returns a variable. Then the form that calls the exe will need an event handler to be able to process the code.

    VB vs. VFP

    Thanks for the input. So the general concensus is that Access is bad, SQL server is good, and VFP somewhere inbetween for the database. The front end app can be either VB or VFP, but there seems to be alot of support for VFP. Some of our developers (and the systems department) are scared of...

    Easy question, but I'm not smart enough

    I also would use a variable, but instead of using addition and subtraction, you can multiply and divide in order to accelerate and decelerate the movement: lngMove = 1 move lngmove,.... lngMove = lngMove * 10 Then loop. The first move will be 1, then 10, then 100, then 1000, etc. Just...

    VB vs VFP

    My department is trying to make a strategic decision on which way to go forward with our programming efforts. Currently we have many programs in FoxPro 2.6 that are starting to get buggy as we get new computers. I was looking for input as to what others have done and the experience. The two...

    .DBF permission

    I have worked on a program that queries a .dbf. I have the program working well on my workstation, but when I try using it on other machines, I get an error that the user does not have permission to access the .dbf or the .dbf is not shareable. The .dbf is marked read only, but that is the...
