The patch is from our ERP provider (Infor) to provide a financial add-in with Excel. So, no, it is not Foxpro related. No, it is not a COM from VFP. Don't know if VFP is automated - how to check and/or release the setting?

I'm trying to install a patch for an Excel add-in. The patch is an exe file. Whenever I run it the VFP install screen appears and it is looking for the msi file. How can I install the patch without calling visual foxpro functions.

What I finally did was to allow the report to sum the total to a variable. I then took that variable and made it into a string and then back to a value. val(str(variable,10,2)) this made the numbers consistent. thanks for all your suggestions.

Thanks but that doesn't help. I think I'll just have to run this report from a query rather than a table.

I am working in a report and grouping by date. This sounds really dumb but if I calculate a sum to a date, in this case two parameters: bundles and hours. I obviously obtain two totals. If I create two variables (bund_tot and hour_tot)to obtain the same totals, they match. In this case, 3...

Guess what? Now it works???? I don't understand why it works now but didn't earlier. Thanks for your help.

The good news is by eliminating SCREEN = OFF, the program will run but the VFP Window appears in the background.

I'm relatively new to Visual Foxpro having been coding FPW 2.6 for years. I created a program and can run the .exe file from the development folder as a standalone executable. When I copy the necessary files (.exe, .dbf's, .dll's) up to the network to run from a network drive the application...

I think you are right. I simply created a new form, added a few properties, and used the container from the searchform class. It works fine. I just need to refresh the data on the main screen for the applied filter. Thanks.

Let me clarify - The program is very simple - view records from a single table. I used the form wizard, set my config.fpw with a SCREEN = OFF, and set the form.ShowWindow property to 2 - as top level form. This makes the form look as an independent application running on the computer without...

I'm changing some Foxpro 2.6 apps to Visual Foxpro and, being relatively new to VF, to make it easier I am using form wizards. Anyhow, the main application appears fine on the screen but when a user clicks the "Search" icon the main Visual Foxpro window appears. How can I change the class...

When some users run a couple particular reports, they do not print to their default printer nor, when given the prompt to select a printer, print to that printer. They all print to the printer in my office. The reports do not have any environment saved nor are they specified to run on a...

I do not use CLOSE ALL but I do use CLOSE DATABASES and CLEAR READ when the user exits the screen. The largest variable I create is 200 characters (blanks) used to fill unused character data fields.

I'm using a third party program, DBFTrieve, integrated within my application. Everything will work fine for a while and then for some undeterminable reason that message will appear. I was unable to recreate any specific conditions that cause failure but when I did get that first problem, it...

My application (ver. 2.6a) requires particular libraries for use in different modules. Attempting clear a library with SET LIBRARY TO' or simply calling the new library 'SET LIBRARY TO FOXTOOLS' causes a windows error message to appear: An error has occurred in your application. If you chose...

This is an intermittent problem. On occassion, users will print reports from a FPW 2.6a application and for some reason their windows printers will disappear. It is not confined to a particular report and all reports these users run are provided a 'PROMPT' command allowing them to select a...

Thanks. That was the ticket. I just wish I asked 10 hours of work ago!

I am using a listbox created from an array. The array dimensioned as [x,8]. The listbox will display the fields in a columnar format where each field right or left aligns as necessary. I attempt to maintain consistent positioning between the fields using the space() feature but I still cannot...

My application resides on an NT4 server. One of the applications is used exclusively by one workstation. The program calls for a local .dbf to: 1. zap all records 2. insert a record from memory variables 3. print a report from that local table (a single record) Every once in a while the...

1. Create a new database in Access 2000 2. From the file menu, select 'Get external data' - 'Import' 3. Select 'odbc databases' from the bottom of the 'file of type selector' 4. Select 'Visual Foxpro tables' from the 'Machine Data Source' tab and click 'OK' 5. Click the 'Free Table' radio...
