    Foxpro interleave program

    That is really simple in form, and it seems to work very well as far as I can tell, Olaf. Two questions, at least one of which is gonna sound really newbish. 1. If you have a remainder left when you do reccount()/divisions, do you round up, or down? 2. How does sorting strings work exactly...

    Foxpro interleave program

    Oh boy, that's rich MrDataGuy. And I thought my grandma had it hard walking uphill both ways for two miles in the snow every day to school! She just didn't know how easy she had it :P

    Foxpro interleave program

    Oh, I can quite well understand. I probably need to get on some backed up work myself, but I thank you heartily for taking time off your day to help with this. :) Don't work too hard, eh? And Olaf, thank you as well. I'm not sure if our imaging program and the guy who works with it either A. is...

We're trying to...

    Foxpro interleave program

    Let's see, I'd have to change the mytable to whatever table I was using, right? And then the newtable is the output where the data would be interleaved? What would I need to change to make it divide the table into fourths instead of halves, or even eighths? I tried just changing the numerics in...

    Foxpro interleave program

    Is there a freeware or shareware program, or a way to do this with simple command lines that can interleave foxpro records? Say I had a table with 500 records numbered sequentially from 1-500, and I wanted to interleave them 2up. When the program finished the sequence numbers should be...
