We have used Ghostscript PDF printer for years on Server 2003 but when we recently migrated to 2008 I cannot get it to work. No matter what I do I get an error. I have a feeling it has something to do with security or permissions. Does anyone have any experience with this?
Thanks!
A person is eligible for something on the first date of the month following the date that he has been with the company for 3 months. I only have a date of hire.
Can anyone help me with a calculation for this?
To get them started:
* are you opening the files from the project manager?
No, just from the VFP menu
* from Windows Explorer?
I've tried this but there is no difference
* from the VFP menu?
Yes
* Just before save, what is VFP's working directory?
c:\enrollment
For future reference, that's...
I've tried running as an administrator and it still does not work.
Very interesting that you don't get .bak files. I have always gotten them... is this a setting in VFP?
I definately think this is a clue. Anther clue is that I end up with .TMP files (they contain the program when I open...
I made a directory directly off my c:\ drive called "enrollment". So the files are saved in C:\enrollment.
I didn't think the actual name of directory mattered. Sorry.
I'm using McAffee virus scanner and PC Tools Spyware Doctor for malware protection. I also have PC Tools Registry Mechanic to scan for registry errors.
I've tried everything. I've turned UAC off. I've created a separate directory for temporary files and then directed VFP to use that directory. I've used DOS to make sure none of the directories are Read-Only (its hard to tell with Explorer).
The name of the directory I'm saving to does not...
Hmmmm... I may try that. I forgot about the config.fpw file. Maybe the clue is in there.
God knows I've tried everything else, and as you can imagine, this is driving me NUTS. Can't get anything done.
Well, I'll try to stop all the AV programs and try it, but it doesn't make sense. Nothing gets deleted 'on its own'. Its only when I try to compile or save VFP programs.
Something must have changed at some point. Could this be a security or permissions issue?
I am a VFP9 user and recently upgrades to Windows 7. Everything worked fine for about 3-4 months (I was worried that it wouldn't work well under 64bit but it seemed to do fine).
All of a sudden, most every time I either try to compile or save a program, I get a 'file access is denied' error...
I think Mike's solution will work. Just to be clear, is the length of the field in VFP exactly the same length that will come out in the text file? The reason I ask is that I am sending the file somewhere else and they seem very particular about making sure it is a certain length.
Thanks!
Seems like a simple question, but for some reason can't find an answer here. Is it possible to save a simple Foxpro table as a fixed length data file? Is so, what are the steps to do so?
Thanks in advance for your time!
When printing a VFP report, does anyone know if it is possible to print some fields a different color depending on the value of other fields in the table record?
If so, can you tell me how to do it?
Thanks in advance.
I guess I should have said that I 'inherited' these tables and this structure from an existing, much larger project - or indeed I would have designed it better from the start.
These are great ideas - let me try them.
I knew you guys would know the answer, as usual! Thanks again.
This one may be a little hard to explain but please bear with me.
For each account, I have a table that contains the fields (for example) tot1, tot2, tot3, etc. I also have a field called grand_tot, which is the sum of all these other fields. To get grand_tot, I put "tot1+tot2tot3...." in my...
Sorry Smah,
Yes, I tried this before I wrote the original post. I think it may be a setting in my browser since some other pages (some very well known) also give me the same problem.
Let me change the doctype setting to see if that helps.
Thanks again for your help.
