Oooops, sorry, you are of course quite correct it was Pat Adams' error handler I used to use. Your name is so familiar because of your excellent contributions the Whil Hentzen's Hacker's Guides. My 82 year old brain is not quite as reliable as it used to be !<BG> Regards, Richard Myers (aka -...

Hi Tamar: Yes I am the developer (now retired) but in need of some additional income (aren't we all) I decided to resurrect this app and transferred it to a 64 bit computer for see if I can bring it up to speed. However thanks to Dan and Olaf's input I've more or less cracked it simply by...

I have a comprehensive application ( Church Management) developed on a 32 bit platform. I now want to transfer it to my 64 bit Win 7 machine. However just copying the files over the network loses most of the graphics and vcxs. Is there a utility for exporting a complete project from a 32 bit...

Wow ! Olaf you deserve a medal! Adding "REPORT BEHAVIOUR 90" to our MAIN.prg plus including ReportOutput.app in the compile script files. It works like a dream! Had to HIDE the print/choice window to prevent all the commands being echoed to the screen. SET TALK OFF didn't seem to do the trick...

Hi Mike: Again, being away from "home base" I only have the one printer. However I'm not sure that the printer driver would affect anything since it DOES print perfectly from the IDE. BTW you can download a demo copy from our website www.sjsa.com. Go to PRODUCts and select TAM2000/download...

Thanks for all the suggestions Guys & Gals! In answer to various suggestions heres the scoop. The images are user installed, in other words our application has the facility for the user to add his/her own images of people, things, documents etc. All in .jpg format. We have tested this very...

We have a report with a single image from a blob in a table. This reproduces perfectly in both preview and also when sent to the printer providing we run it in the IDE. However when we compile it into a distributable .exe application it works fine in preview BUT the printer just prints a large...

I remember that in FP2.6 issuing just a REINDEX caused indexes to get larger and larger despite the fact that the table had not increased in size. We used to issue a DELETE TAG ALL and then rebuild all the indexes. Does this still apply to VFP 9 or can we just use REINDEX without deleting and...

We are able to export data to HTML using _GENHTML.PRG but would like to do the reverse, any suggestions. Richard Myers (aka - fourletr) Burlington - Ontario Canada

I'm trying to run a friend's application as an .exe. I get the following message "OLE IDispatch Exception code 500 from Visual Foxpro for windows. This property is read only..." Clicking "Ignore" runs the program perfectly. Any suggestions ? Richard Myers (aka - fourletr) Burlington - Ontario...

Thanks for the suggestions Olaf but I think I will take GenDev's advice and use Inno Setup. Hi GenDev: Thanks for the link I was already looking at this app as a possible substitute for ISE. Already produced a working install for my App, just one thing... How do you set/change the Desktop...

Thanks for the very comprehensive reply. Unfortunately it doesn't work as you suggested. I eventually got it to install from a disk but only after much tweaking of files into various sub-directories on ISE. I then tried it on an XP box, hopeless! and then on a Vista box, didn't even install...

Thanks Olaf & Dave, but... Can you please explain how I can set this folder up in IS Express 5.0. (The one that comes with VFP 9.2) TIA Richard Myers (aka - fourletr) Burlington - Ontario Canada

I have an app that installs and runs perfectly on Win 7 32 bit. It's installed using the IS Express that comes with VFP 9.0. However when we try to install on a 64 bit it cannot find the data files which are, of course in a seperate sub-folder called data. We can identify the fact that the...

OK Guys, no squabling ! Blob +Olaf's BRILLIANT solution Works perfectly !!! Why oh why can't we get this sort of information in some sort of Help File/Manual/Wiki ?? I've spent hours "fiddling" around trying to get this to work and now it does. Many Many thanks OLAF you're ACE

My problem is finding the correct settings in the VFP report writer. I can't find a way to link the Blob to the OLE picture field. I either get "File does not Exist" or "Invalid filename/Path". I think I'm missing something obvious that my 79 year old brain can't figure out. everything else is...

I am updating an old 2.6 app to VFP9.0. It is a Church Managment program and it's main screen gives details of the parishioner's family plus an optional photo (jpg) This works perfectly with the jpgs stored in a Blob field. Since the total records is unlikely to be huge (say around 1,000/2,000)...

A client has asked us to modify an invoice form to include "scanable" barcodes for each line item. Any suggestions?? regards RM

Oooops, no parallel port on either the computer or the printer !! Nice try tho !! <BG>

Hi Dave: Yes, thanks, it is Direct to printer using ?? and @ Say. As you will appreciate this is an old application that has been running just fine under a Win98 workstation. The client has updated to XP and we modified the code to read "??" instead of "???", works just fine. However they then...
