Hi all, Being very green at .NET, I've been reading on pb 12 .NET and I'm somewhat confused on what to use: "pb 12 classic" or "pb 12 .NET". What I'd like to try is to make a small application run in MS Internet Explorer. In pb 11, that would be done using a web-forms application. In...

A string or Blob can hold quite a lot of data. The problem I've been having in more than one application over the years is that there seems to be no way at all in powerbuilder to make sure your assignment of data to string or blob will end successfully. It'll work or it'll GPF. In C (the...

I've seem 'destroy' events appearing in object-controls. These had a 'call objectname::eventname()' in it and parent script showed "end on". when deleting the code of the 'destroy' event (note: not 'destructor' event), powerbuilder 11 / 12 GPF's ... Seems like something corrupted and I get the...

Hi there, I've solved a recent problem with an object that - when trying to show the script of a control with 'very long' name - GPF'ed and closed down PB 11 ( 12 has the same problem). The problem was that there was another object with an almost equal name. Reducing the object name...

Hello, Has anyone done a migration to pb 12? Could you provide me some information of things that have gone wrong or have to be changed? The main reason I want to migrate to version 12, are the much improved grahs, pies, charts, etc. If anyone knows a good third party product for the graphs...

Hello, I want to inform my users by means of a messagebox from php code. I've seen code but it all works with javascript and are based on the execution of 'something' like a submit button. The php-ext library also seems very interesting but I haven't been able to something as simple as, though...
