Using append from myfile delimited with tab I have found that if a cell contains "X"Y I get two fields filled with "X" then Y this moves all subsequent fields right by one with sad side effects. I don't suppose there's a fix for this and I've written my own unpack so this is just a 'be aware'...

Is there anything new about this.? I want to monitor my router's performance so want to leave my code running unattended for some time. I just repeatedly get a url = connected (or false or null = not connected) and it mostly works but I get a halt occasionally with 'Still executing last...

I provide html code which is 'plugged into a web site over which I have no control. It shows the results of my code in a "window" or "box" which is centered on the screen and too narrow for my needs. You can see my problem here (Styling :width=130% is giving me a wider right margin - click to...

May I ask a second (maybe related) question? I now want to nest an accordion but this happens Accordion A Button A1 text only - OK Button A2 text only - OK Button A3 Opens Accordion B (A4 not visible!!!) Button B1 text only - OK Button B2 text only - OK Button A4 text only - closes Button...

I have been using an accordion for some time very successfully. But the panels contained nothing but text and now I have to allow for active elements (anchors ) in the panels. Problem is that when a panel closes it's anchors stay active so you can't see them but you can click on them (and also...

I have a combo, array based, displaycount initialised to 25. At run time, the array is filled with a varying number of rows and I change display count to the length of the array. The box opens with the correct number of entries but the user can still scroll down to 25 list rows. How can I...

I want to make a copy of a report, changing the printer. (I need to use a printer with A3 and Courier New,8 to print to a text file with sufficient width). No matter what I do it stays locked to the default printer. Any suggestions please I could change the printer when creating my report...

Another tip - make sure the fields along each line are exactly in Line (all same Top value). Another nuisance - the line width is limited by the printer - if you use the Generic Text printer, you can have longer lines but no Font and the default 17cpi doesn't work as well as Courier. Thanks to...

Hi, Can anyone help me with using zetafaz as an object? the zetafax site no longer offers any info on VFP. I created some code a long time ago, I think by translating from VB. My attempt is like this: oZfAPI = CREATEOBJECT("ZfLib.ZfAPI") oUserSession = oZfAPI.Logon(myLoginName, .f.)...

Hi, I frequently cannot see line numbers on methods since upgrading from VFP6 to 9. This did happen in 6 but Edit/Properties/Apply to method + Save preferences would usually switch them back on. It doesn't in 9. Is there anything else I can do? Thanks Bill Bill Spence, Dunfermline...

I would like to send an e-mail-shot with a logo. I'd like the recipient to see it as I prepared it (not as an attachment) If I prepare it in Word, save as HTML, and Send, it arrives in Outlook as text with the logo attached. If I copy and past into Outlook (mail format set to HTML) it takes a...

Hi I'm scanning the cells of a worksheet using this code icell=loExcel.ActiveWorkbook.ActiveSheet.range(iy+ix).value It works fine unless one of the cells has a reference to a workbook which is not avaiable (it shows #REF! in Excel). The VFP crashes with Error 11. Is there a better solution...

Why do I get long delays when I step outside a filtered set of records in a grid and is there anything I can do about it?. I'm showing a subset of a table in a grid. Each subset is quite large (>10,000 records). It takes a few seconds to create and show the grid and to switch to a different...

I've just discovered xHarbour - thanks to this forum. I'm a long term Clipper programmer and have some old apps to upgrade. Ihope that conversion will be easy. Q1. Presumably it delivers a character based user interface (CUI)? Q2. If so, how should I plan to develop that app to a GUI? (if...

Most date fields in my Excel(2.1) sheets will not import. If a date is calculated in Excel - it imports but if it's keyed it doesn't. (i.e A1 is a keyed date, B1 is =A1+1;B1 imports, A1 doesn't) Field type in FP2.6 doesn't matter (Char or Date) Please advise me.
