Thank you. I have had exactly this issue with a client today and have passed the suggested solution to their network support to implement.

This is a problem with Word as well. Setting your reference to Nothing (or just letting it go out of scope) does not close down the Office application; it just loses your link to it so you are left with an 'orphan' process. In either case, you must issue .Quit first.

Thanks to you both. Mike gets a star because his solution was both simple and IT WORKED!

I have a VFP6 exe incorporating a report including fields in currency format. On my and other NT4 machines, the report prints with £ symbols. On a Win2000 machine it is printing with $. In all cases, all regional/locale settings are English (UK). The exe was compiled with 'Use System...

Sorry if I confused you - forgot to open the worksheet in my code!!

Many thanks. Isn't Microsoft wonderful?!

I am using Excel 97 SR-2 on Windows NT4 SP6. System regional settings are English (UK) with short date format of dd/MM/yy and long date format of dd MMMM yyyy. My VB code is : ActiveCell.NumberFormat = "dd/mm/yyyy" ActiveCell.Value = "01/02/2003" This displays as...

objExcel = CREATEOBJECT("Excel.Application") With objExcel.Worksheets(1).UsedRange For intRowNo = 1 TO .Rows.Count varCellValue = .Cells(intRowNo, intColNo).Value Next End With objExcel.Quit Set objExcel = Nothing

There are lots. VBAPI.com is a useful reference site with examples of calling the API from VB.

Use an Image data type and populate it using the TextStream object (MicroSoft Scripting RunTime). You need to store the word document in C:\Temp (or somewhere similar) temporarily and then read it as a text stream. Recover it by the reverse process. I have used this for document templates and...

Declare Function GetFullPathName Lib "kernel32.dll" Alias "GetFullPathNameA" (ByVal lpFileName As String, ByVal nBufferLength As Long, ByVal lpBuffer As String, ByVal lpFilePart As String) As Long See http://www.vbapi.com for details - this is a very useful guide to calling...

I think this is a printer driver problem. What is your printer. We do this with Canon and Kyocera printers and they stop when a bin runs out.

It depends what you mean. Variables once declared remain until they go out of scope but it's not worth worrying about that. I would include range objects in the 'variables' category. If you are thinking about API objects such as device contexts, then they will stay around in the same way but...

Dim objExcel as Object ' Use late binding to be independent of Excel version objExcel = CreateObject(Excel.Application) With objExcel ...{Your existing VBA code} ... .Quit End With Set objExcel = Nothing

I don't think so - but why not just reverse the sort order?

You presumably have a variable referencing the report object. You need to set it to Nothing to release the object : Set objReport = Nothing

I think you just need to join your tables in the one SQL as : SELECT ed.Name, ed.Address, od.OfficeNo, od.TelNo FROM Employees ed JOIN Offices od ON od.EmployeeNo = ed.EmployeeNo

The code samples all include the key line : Set xlApp = Nothing If you don't do this, there still is a refernce to it and the app will remain in memory. In the case of Word, you MUST .Quit first as well. I don't know about Excel but it would be good practice anyway. As a general point in...

DynaZip provides a DLL that you can call directly from VisFox without the need for a command line prompt. I have used it very succesfully.

Xitech supply ReFox and also an on-the-fly encryption/decryption product called Cryptor. Give them a call - they are very helpful.
