Thanks Griff!
I know this is a big step from the normal clipper reports. My clients do not want to lose the speed and ease of operation that Clipper/DOS provides, however; they would like some better looking reports. Especially when it comes to Invoices and Purchase Orders. I have never used...
Hi, does anyone know if there is a way to hi-lite all the fields displayed in a dbEdit() Browse function? Currently it will only hi-lite one field at a time and the hi-lite moves left or right as you arrow. I would like to hi-lite all the fields across the record all at once.
Thanks Rahja!
Hi, I have an Inventory Program (Clipper 5.01) that allows the User to browse the database using the dBEdit Function and then use the "F" keys to Add, Edit, Delete... etc. I need to create a routine that will allow the User to search for a set of embedded characters (ie. "Grain Bag") in the...
Hi Everyone!
I need to update my Clipper reports to something more than just plain text. I have tried to get my head around Crystal XI and using it with DOS/Clipper app and have just hit a brick wall. Does anyone know of a product that I could use (fairly easily) that would give me some font...
Thanks again Griff! Got it figured out, sometimes it's hard
to see the forest for the trees! Even though it ran fine if
I called it from the Command prompt, Clipper must obviously call an older version of a DOS Shell as it would not recognize the Long-File Name "cviewbatch11.exe", I renamed the...
Thanks Griff!
Tried your suggestion. Renamed Report.bat to MyRep.bat
edited it to read:
d:\flaman\cviewbatch11.exe @d:\flaman\mycommands.txt
Same thing happens. Works fine from the Command Prompt gives
my a "Bad Command or File Name" when I run the command
"Run MyRep.bat" from within my...
I am trying to call a batch file from within my clipper app to execute the printing of a crystal report. The batch file is called "Report.bat" and it contains one line as follows
"cviewbatch11.exe @mycommands.txt"
The text file just passes some printing parameters to the exe file. The process...
I found the following post via a Google Search. I am trying to do exactly what EncinoMan had previously posted, and from what I can tell IntentDriven had a resolution for it. I am very interested in talking to either of you about it, however I do not know how to get in touch.
Hope you see this...
When I try to connect to a dbaseIII file I get the following
"Failed to load database information" and then "Unknown database connection error" . The file opens fine in dbase and clipper, data is intact, everything seems fine. Have re-installed Crystal XI to alleviate any issues that may have...
I want to update my Clipper App Reports to use Crystal Reports. I have the latest Crystal App but do not understand what I need to do to have clipper call the report and what the report actually requires to run. I am assuming there would need to be a run-time engine available for the report...
No, my program opens the files only when required and then closes when the task is complete. What puzzles me is this works fine under Clipper 5.01 with RtLink, but will not work under 5.3 with Blinker.
I am trying to run to my Clipper 5.01 code using Clipper 5.3 and Blinker 1.0. I am getting the above mentioned error code when I try to open up a dbf in a second work area. This works very well in 5.01 but I cannot get it to work now. Does anyone know what I am doing wrong? Do I need to use any...
Thanks Lyndon for your immediate response. Yes, I do have all the prg files for the program. I guess the problem I am having is trying to determine what syntax I need for the Linker, and also what Linker to use. From what I can determine there is both the Blinker and the Exospace available to...
I have an Inventory program that I wrote with Clipper 5.01 and would like to start making some enhancements to it with 5.3 functions. The problem I'm having is getting it to use Blinker. The original was done with RTLink. Does anyone have some suggestions, or directions?
Thanking You in Advance!
