First of all this question not one of those: “if I do not get an answer to my question then my application will not work, and the word will end” situation. It is in the “There has to be a better way” category. Ok here goes I have some screens/forms that have some ‘repeating’ code in them and I...

OK folks I am going out of my comfort zone and I would appreciate some sage advice. Here is the back ground. An old client of my just recently contacted me and they want me to upgrade an old fox application. This application was first started in FoxBASE and finished in Fox Windows. They have...

I have a textbox that number are entered into. I am allowing the user to type a ‘-‘ to reduce the number by one, and ‘+’ to increase it by one. (In the Keyup method there is code looking for e.KeyCode = Keys.Subtract and = Keys.Add). The code does more then adding or subtracting but that is a...

I am about to create for a client a form that will have somewhere around 6-9 (Design still not set) “areas” (Panels) in it, where there will be a graph in each ( via foxgraph see http://vfpx.codeplex.com/wikipage?title=FoxCharts&referringTitle=Home ). This will be a dashboard page for my...

I hope I am missing something simple, e.g. a property name that I have forgotten. OK here is the question; Can I give a container its’ own datasession? For example a form can have a data session and of course the Session class has one. Why am I asking? Well I have a form that will have a...
