Thanks, I followed the referenced thread and also found another. One difference I noted was that that Mike Lewis said it worked fine in VFP8. Mine is an old app in VFP6. I'm going to convert it to 8 and see if that makes a difference. I don't think it's a Novell issue. It doesn't work from...

I have a custom menu for an application (VFP6). At one point I pull up at text file with the modify file noedit command. I've added a print menu option under the custom menu's File option and used Bar # and _MFI_SYSPRINT. I can compile the program and execute it while I am still in VFP and...

I'm trying to move an outlook folder with custom forms to another computer. I have a .pst file created for that folder - how do I get it to show up in other systems outlook. We are not running Exchange Server - I'm just trying to get the custom forms developed available to others. Judy Scofield

I have a client who wants users on his network to share outlook items, so they can both access the same calendar, for example. They do not have exchange server - can this be accomplished with two workstations and Outlook? Judy Scofield

Thanks - I can set different attributes at design time. I only run into the problem when I'm trying to change the attribute of one control at run time. Let me know if you think of anything else. Judy Scofield

Yes, it's affecting all of the controls. I happen to 0nly have one instance of "Text1". Is affects all the controls whether I refer to them by name or number and it even crosses sections, setting the contorls in the report header as well as the detail section. Judy

I actually build my reports in Crystal 9 and agree that the datareport leaves much to be desired. This report is very unusual and was inherited from an Access program. Time constraints are making it difficult to rewrite. I also reset captions in this report and it works fine on individual...

I have asked this before and got no response, so maybe this is worded better. I'm trying to set the font attribute of a control in a datareport in code based on user input. If I code, for example, drReport1.Sections("Section1").Controls("Text1").Font.Bold = True it sets...

I'm working on a datareport. The user can select Font attributes for particular fields before the report is run. I'm getting an all or nothing result on the output. When I setup the report, I change the attribute when I initialize the report, moving through each of the controls to see what...

If i have 15 text boxes on my report, is there a way to refer to them one a time with the help of an array? Is there a control array? If they were called Data1 through Data15 for example, could I do a loop throught to set a property based on some criteria set in code elsewhere? Judy Scofield

Thanks - both of these suggestions helped me solve this problem.

I'd like to insert into a table from another table, but include a sequence number that increments by one for each inserted record. The sequence number does not exist in the old table. How do I code this. Ideally, {'d like the sequence number to restart each time another value changes. Judy...

Jason, Thanks - actually it i a data combo box and I didnt' see a listindex property. Is it the same on this control? Judy

I have a datacombo box on a form called dacrules. When stepping through my code, I can see the .selecteditem property. For example it may show 2. I want to set it to, say, 3. When I code dacrules.selecteditem = 3 I get an error, Object Required. What's wrong with my code?? Thanks...

Thanks, the solution worked and helped me a lot. I'll make sure to replay to all answers in the future. Judy Scofield

Thanks, this is much better than check the length at .beforeupdate and giving a message.

I have a data grid bound to a sql table. If the field length of one of the fields is 25, how do I limit the input in the grid to 25 characters? Judy

I have a VB6 program using SQL2000. I have a screen with a datagrid showing some fields of all records in a table and a detail section at the bottom with a command button to add a new record. This has worked fine until now. I've added a rowguid column with a default value. When I do an...

This looks like what I need - thanks. Judy

I've been asked to add a routine in an existing application that searches for a file on the user's machine, then edit that file if it is found. It happens to be an ini file. I know that locfile() finds a file, but only searches in the paths set in set path. How can I search for a file if I...
