    Project setup saved?

    No, actually I don't. That seems overly complex to me, but then again, I'm not familiar with DevTree. And remember that the heirarchical scheme I came up with showed that many of those 40+ items don't materially affect the outcome. (This really isn't the venue for this discussion, 'cuz the...

    Project setup saved?

    Hi Bill, y'ol' coot! Check in your Tools|Options|File Locations from the VFP menu to see if you're using a Resource file. Double-click the Resource File name and a window will come up with a checkbox for "use resource file". Make sure that's checked. The file's usually...

    operator question regarding use of (->)

    parkfairfax I should add that the "->" construct is only for table/view dot notation, not object/property situations etc. Thus, customer->password refers to the contents of a field called 'password' in a table or view called 'customer'. Assuming I'm on the right track, your example...

    operator question regarding use of (->)

    How to remove main screen....

BE SURE you set application.visible to .T. again before CLEAR EVENTS (I put it in the Destroy event for the form) or you'll wind up with VFP...

    HELP

    Under the Project Menu, try "Clean Up Project". I've had numerous types of files reduced tremendously with this operation. It packs the project itself and a load of other things which I can't tell. Can't hurt to do, and it may be useful. How big is your source file? If your...

    Wide reports

    I have a large number of 1-table reports, all wide, consisting of an item, then a variable number of columns of numbers, each column representing a datum for the item for the year at the top of the column, like so: Page 1a Item 1990 1991 1992... ------------------------------------...
