    How to make all tables "read only"?

    Thanks to all of you for your help. Kilot's solution seemed to work very well for what I need, and was quick and easy. I'm sure that Liz's solution would work too, but there is one table that I need to leave updateable, so I can't lock the entire directory (neglected to mention that in my...

    How to make all tables "read only"?

    We are in the process of replacing our Paradox database with something else. There are no plans to convert the data into the new system, so our users will still need access to the data in Paradox for historical purposes. Management is concerned that if we leave the application "as is", the...

    I believe that "user" is a reserved word in SQL.

    Changing my XP hard drive

    wolluf, I got this working again by first installing the Windows Installer CleanUp Utility then using it to "clean up" Word. Then I reinstalled like you suggested, and it worked ! Here is the link to the Microsoft support page for the Windows Installing CleanUp Utility...

    Changing my XP hard drive

    My location is c:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office10. It does have WINWORD.EXE in there, and the icon looks correct. However, double clicking it produces the same error. From within Word, I ran Help / Detect and Repair, selected "restore my shortcuts while repairing", but did not...

    Changing my XP hard drive

    I used the sofware that came with the new hard drive to "clone" the old one, and everything was good, except that Microsoft Word brings up an error when I try to open it: 'An error occurred and this feature is no longer functioning properly. Please run Setup and select "Repair..." to restore...

    Inclusion operator in SQL???

    Regarding the plus sign way, you just put the plus sign on the key from the table that might be missing the record. In your example, it would be: SELECT d.Child_ID, D1."Date", d2.Goal_ID, d2."Hour", d2.Score, d."Last_Name"+", "+d."First_Name"+" - "+d.Child_ID as SName FROM "Children.db" d...

    Inclusion operator in SQL???

    I believe it is a plus sign within parenthesis (+)

    formatted external IO error

    Maybe the code is trying to read past the end of the file? Does the READ statement have an END= clause on it?

    Subroutine Arguments

    Talyrond, I think that parameter is a return label. Inside the subroutine, you should see a RETURN statement, but you should also see a RETURN 1 statement. The RETURN 1 statement tells the calling routine to jump to the label passed in for that last parameter upon return from the...

    Thanks Lance. I'll give this a try.

    sysInfo question

    I'm seeing a strange problem when using the sysInfo procedure. I have a user with a very long username (16 characters). My application logs each user as they start the application, documenting various items from sysInfo, one of which is the userName. When this guy logs in though, the value...

    Make the computer thinking ... seems to be

    I'm not sure if this will work, but try writing the backspace character using the CHAR function, like write(*,'(a1,a)',advance='NO') '\',CHAR(8) (I think 8 is the correct value for backspace, but you may want to double check).

    reading until end of file

    As I indicated above, I had the wrong keyword. It should be END.

    Seemingly unfixable problem with Access application

    Pete, I pretty much had this same issue with a Paradox application. You might check out Microsoft articles Q299603 and Q272582. We ended up changing the OpLocksDisabled value in the registry under the key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CCS\Services\Mrxsmb\Parameters to "0x1" as Q299603...

    Report printing problem

    Mac, Thank you very much for your response. I figured that queries were the way to go, but I was unsure how to change the report without losing all of the fields. I appreciate the "step by step" instructions on that. Thanks again !

    Report printing problem

    I have been getting a GPF error when printing a series of individual reports. It is not consistent. Using the same dataset, sometimes the error will show up after 3 prints, sometimes 10, etc. After reading the various posts already out there, I checked the style sheet and it is ok. However...

    Paradox Problem w/ Win XP Pro

    You might want to post this in the Corel: Paradox forum. Have you checked the user permissions on the directories involved? When I was testing some Paradox applications on XP, the userid did not have permission to create a file in the PRIV directory.

    coutning characters in a string

    I'm not sure if it exists within Fortran 77, but in Vax Fortran, there is a function call INDEX where you can find a certain character. If there are no imbedded blanks within the string, you could use INDEX to find the position of the first blank, then subtract 1 to have the end of the string...

    copy command in a com file

    You cannot use a wildcard in the destination filename to replace only part of the name. You either have to specify the filename directly, or keep it exactly the same as the source filename. If I'm reading your code correctly, you are trying to make a copy of each file, but adding the current...
