    VM to email Google MX

    I suggest you look at the SPF record in the DNS for the from domain. And add the include for the sending server. The SPF record is to help in preventing email spoofing. It lists the servers and networks permitted to send email on behalf of your domain. You can go here and lookup your current...

    Kind of strange thing going on with DOW() and SET FDOW

    Very interesting. I work with lots of various payroll, accounting, and delivery service software and reporting so DOW() is sprinkled all over.

    Excel Automation (Print option settings)

    With all the options we have anymore I still find myself relying on the good old school method of FoxPro and Excel Automation. For quick and excellent results it cannot be beat!

    Outlook Profile Issue (View others emails)

    I have a full understanding of the mechanics of files and local security access to them. What I am not understanding is if I am not providing proper credentials of the outlook profile why it would open the outlook profile anyway. That is my issue since they are just local files (actually OST not...

    Disk IO performance

    I am building a new SCO 507 Definitive virtual in VMware Hypervisor. I have built many of these over the years. However, on this one specific Dell Server, the Disk IO in production was particularly poor. Customer comment "our 15-year-old box was faster" Anyway I have dug into the issue and...

    Cloud backup for VFP 9 application?

    Just wanting to add my 2 cents. I have been at this software thing for over 25 years and one of the hardest learned lessons was in the area of providing backups for customers. I JUST DON'T DO IT. With providing the complete backup solution comes with it a non-verbal agreement that I AM...
