Hi everyone, I've been asked to have a look at a system which needs its windows changed to use multithreading. At the moment there is a window which is run by the users and they might as well run it and go for a cup of coffee. It locks up the whole application. It would be good if we could get...

How to update a DataWindow which is created using stored procedure? Open the datawindow in PowerBuilder in the Data Preveiw like pane Right click to Edit the stored procedure. Also, what is the Fat client and Thin client in Client Server architecture? I suggest you look up 2 tier achitecture...

Hi, I wouldn't have thought that filters would be a problem as all the data is loaded into memory. It would more likely be the fact that you are loading so much data into the memory of the client. Best thing to do is collect timing information on the retrieve. Isolate which retreives are...

Hi, I was once working on a site where we had a utility to select data using a select statement or a datawindow and it would retieve the data from the database. Then we could select the data we were interested in and it would generate the insert, update or delete statements for us. It was...

Hi Anne, I've had a quick look at your code, I can see that you are creating the tabpage and then creating the abcPage for the tab page. However within the InitializeComponent of abcPage, there is use of pannel. this.panel1 = new System.Windows.Forms.Panel(); I would have thought that...

Hi Matt, Are the column names within your new table, the values from the first row of data that you are missing? I've not used OleDbDataAdapter but I have seen this behaviour in MS Access when loading data into a new table. I would try defining the columns of the new table before filling it...

Hi, I'm writing an application which reads a file, and inserts records into either a SQL server database or a MySQL database. The table structures are the same in each database. My first thought was to use ODBC to connect to the different databases. But one further reading it looks like...

OK I've figured out what was wrong Basically if there are no tabstops in the RichText Box you need to initialise SelectionTabs. Otherwise you get an array out of bounds error. ie going back to my code rtext.SelectionTabs = new int[3]; rtext.SelectionTabs = tabstops; The 3 is the number of...

Hi Sanjay, I think that C++ allows you to structure your program better. It allows the data and functions within the same code {class}. In C the data is created in a structure and you may or maynot create a file to contain the related functions. When you are looking at the code in c++ your...

I would have a look at CStdioFile. The ReadString function. I haven't used it myself but I ususally use CFile and read char by char until the end-of-line marker. Hope this is helpful MJ

Hi J, I would setup your menu loop, I'm not sure how advanced this needs to be. Typing 1,2,3,4 sounds like 101 programming: The best I can do is give you a couple of hints to get you going. Use: cin - to get the input from the user, while - loop with a exit clause switch - to run the...

I am also having problems with changing the default icons windows icons. Did you figure out what the problem was? Like yourself I have changed the bit maps with my own art work but they are still showing on the title bar as being the default icon.

I'm really just getting started with MS C++ 6.0. Here is an example of how I populated the registry with a string value. It's fairly simlar with an int value. I still cannot work out how to store a datetime? I am thinking of resorting to converting the datetime to int or strings then storing...
