    Is IP Address Modification Possible

    I reviewed some old posts like these 3 FAQ184-3356 and FAQ184-3854 and FAQ184-3479, they look like only limited help. My current situation is that there is an external sign for this business from which the text displayed on the sign can be controlled by one local computer (PC.) It is a new...

    Why the retreat from VFP in a budget conscious economy?

    This is not a technical question per se but a very important one. I do not know where else I can post this question. I need just a little feedback from those who develop in Foxpro independently or in a FoxPro shop. Bluntly put, due to the worldwide economic slowdown, I would think Foxpro to the...

    Trouble Calling a FoxPro Stored Procedure from .NET

    Hope this is the right forum. I am using VFP 8. It seems like all works well with calling a stored procedure in a DBC remotely from .NET. For this I am gratified. The trouble starts when I start to get fancy or complex in my DBC stored procedure. I get errors (within .NET) when I put in my...

    How can I get a value from a VFP Stored Procedure remotely from .NET

    I first tried posting this to the ASP .NET tek-tips and made only small syntactical progress. It didn’t solve my problem. I guess I was writing to .NET minded individuals. The difficult part was explaining that my stored procedure in the DBC has nothing to do with the data tables contained...

    Accessing a VFP Stored Procedure with OleDb From .NET

    This code is suppose to eventually be called from a .NET web app. This seemed like the best forum. I first tried posting this to the ASP .NET tek-tips and made only small syntactical progress. It didn’t solve my overall problem. I first must explain that my stored procedure in the Foxpro DBC...

    Trouble getting a returned value (string) from Stored Procedure.

    To being with; there exists a Stored Procedure in a Visual FoxPro Database: I have had success retrieving data using OLEdb. Now the procedure is not a query per se; the procedure is very string intensive and returns the credentials of a Dept Head with License Number information etc. It does not...

    How do I create MS Excel in VB.NET?

    In earlier VB one used the following. ox=createobject("ExcelApplication") ox.activepage.name="Pivot" ox.columns(1).width = 15 etc. etc I was informed that in VB.net that Createobject as such is unsupported. I am currently using the 2005 Visual Studio. How would one open the excel and...

    In DetailsView in VS 2005 issue with DataNavigateUrlFormatString?

    This is a Web ap. I would like to change the path dynamically at runtime via DetailsView1.Fields.Item(0).DataNavigateUrlFormatString = "http://xyz/iconvert/dccon/... &file=\\server1\main\data\HOME.fof\ImageArchive\{0}" to something else as follows...

    How can I incorporate a tif image viewer into a web site?

    The thing is, I know this application is only for our internal office intranet, and we can assume users will have some kind of tif image viewer installed. (Even though each viewer may be a different one.) The specs call for a "hyperlink" type of trigger on the asp page that will launch an image...

    Why doesn't gridview show correct data when pagination or column sort?

    I have a gridview that is linked to SqlDataSource1 whose query is (by default) select * from clients. The form allows searching by 1st & last name. Now when values are entered in text boxes for first and last name, and I enter "JOHN" and "WIL" and press go - what I do is make...

    From VFP How Do I View A TIF Image in Microsoft Document Imaging?

    RUN MSPVIEW.EXE -f W:\ImageArchive\12037292.tif does not work. In the operating system if I just double click the file it launches. Is there a way perhaps using shell execute that can do this. I have to launch it from VFP 8 when a user clicks a button. In my computer it seems to be in...

    Complex Regular Expression perhaps involving look behind?

    Has anyone, who is proficient in Regular Expressions, seen this one? In a string expression that contains or may contain ordinal words like 14TH 23RD 31ST 2ND - we need to strip any/all occurences where TH, RD, ST and ND exist but only if the immediately preceeding character is a digit. ex)...

    How would one instantiate a .NET DLL from VFP8?

    Hope this is the right forum. I want to benchmark the speed between the old Street Component (written in VFP8) and a .NET equivalent that was recently translated to the .NET platform (Studio 2005). Originally (in VFP8) I would say oSTR=CREATEOBJECT("Street.Compare") Is the Syntax exactly the...

    Is there a way to save and restore a forms objects properties?

    I would like to know if there is a way to save in a file (or perhaps a memo field) all of the object's properties, .enabled, .visible, .caption .value .displayvalue etc. Then a user can "Save Preferences" exit the application and when the user goes back in next time; can "Restore Last...

    An object based on a form class Floats independently, why?

    I created an object based on a form (scx). And although I set it as "In Top Level form" - it isn't, when instantiated. Of course it doesn't really float. It just behaves as it was an independent window. The Main Top form (call it form1); in it's init event I have IF ! ("MYFORMCLASS" $...

    Anyone know of a good VFP cube utility.

    I am posting this here because I thought this was a great reporting tool. I am looking for a Cube Utility that can take a data table(or it's queried results) and place it in a cube so the user/operator can twist results into a pretzel if they wish. I have heard about some in the past, and they...

    How do I run a VFP8 DLL COM object from within .NET?

    I am programming in VFP 8 and have a DLL that works very successfully when called from VFP. It has been shown to do the job when object instantiation occurs in Access, Excel and even from a stored procedure in SQL. When a co-worker tried to call it from the latest .NET application it fails...
