    Suddenly Can't get Table of Contents in Word

    Sure have. Even used 'reset' button. I have actually solved the problem since posting. On a hunch, I loaded the document with OpenOffice Writer. It loaded fine, the TOC was intact! I then saved it as a Word document and have had no further problems with Word. Interesting that I was able...

    Suddenly Can't get Table of Contents in Word

    I have a word doc - around 100 pages. I have a TOC based on Heading 1, 2, 3 etc and all was well until suddenly I get the message "Error! No table of contents entries found." where the TOC should be. I have tried messing with the TOC dialog to no avail. Help! Please.

    Can't see components after installing into D2005

    Interestingly, the units installed fine on another machine with D2005. I guess something is scrambled on the first machine. Any suggestions as to how to get it back to a default state? - I have seen mention about configuration files you can delete.

    Can't see components after installing into D2005

    Not sure what you mean. All the components compile without errors or warnings. One of the components had the following uses clause in the implementation part: uses WinProcs, DsgnIntf ; which D2005 doesn't like. It seems to compile fine without it.

    Can't see components after installing into D2005

    I have a component that was written for D5 and is derived from the TSpinEdit component that was supplied on the Samples tab of the D5 component palette. I am trying to get this component installed and available for D2005 and having no end of problems. I figure I need to create a package and...

    Ethernet-based COM ports get slower and slower with time

    I have an app written in Delphi 5 that talks to up to 30 COM ports. Most of the COM ports are implemented with Moxa NE4110S units, there is also one 'real' COM port that is local to the machine. These Moxa units implement a COM port and digital I/O at the end of an IP address, so the COM ports...

    Exception when a thread terminates

    I have a multithreaded app that talks to serial ports. Occasionally I get an exception - I installed MadExcept hoping it would give me more of an idea than D5's reporting: The stack dump I got was: thread $c58: 0043c63d tad.exe Classes TThread.Synchronize 0043c5ed tad.exe Classes...

    Recovering from TCP/IP errors gracefully

    I have a delphi app that needs to communicate regularly with several (about 30) ethernet-based Serial and Digital I/O nodes made by Moxa. These nodes (Moxa NE 4110S) implement a COM port and 2 inputs and 2 outputs at the end of an IP address. I talk to the serial port via standard COM port API...

    Adding VB routine breaks report calculated field with #NAME?

    Yep, even =[FirstName] by itself. The interesting thing is, if I close the DB, and open it again, the fields display OK in the report, but if I switch the design mode, open the code window, then switch back to Preview, all of the calculated control sources go to #NAME? I know the answer will...

    Adding VB routine breaks report calculated field with #NAME?

    I want to be able to write a numeric value in a report, but not write anything if the value was zero. So I was going to make the control source for the text box: =ShowNumberIfNonZero ([Quantity]) and ShowNumberIfNonZero was to be a VB function that returned the number if non-zero, or a null...

    Session variables getting trashed for no reason

    I have an ASP/Jscript site that uses session variables to remember a users login name and password. I also store these in cookies so the user can get logged in silently when they return. Occasionally, the session variables get trashed. One moment they are fine and the next they are filled...

    JScript Short Date format from Access database field

    Yep, JS please. The main problem seems to be that the object returned by RecordSet ("Date") is not in fact a date, at least it isn't by the time it gets into the function. The function works fine with other date variables. I tries using Date.parse but that produces a big number (ms since 1970...
