    Paradox Slow in Windows 98

    Lance, It is the 32 bit version. Lynn

    Paradox Slow in Windows 98

    Lance, No virus software on this machine. It has no modem and no network connections. And Runtime 7 runs at normal speed (same application). But the same query (for example) that is the blink of your eye in Runtime 7 takes about 5 seconds in Runtime 10 (with the same underlying data files)...

    Paradox Slow in Windows 98

    I tested my new Runtime 10 install on a Windows 98 machine we have. It has no Paradox and no BDE on it, so it should be a clean test. The installation was successful and the application runs, but it is extremely slow. The old version in Runtime 7 runs much faster. And there is no problem...

    Creating Runtime 10 Installation Package

    I finally got around to trying to move my application from Paradox 7 Runtime to Paradox 10 Runtime. What was holding me back was the lack of an Installation Package in Paradox 10 Runtime. I thought I would report on my experience if anyone else is facing the same problem. I first tried to make...

    Automatically print report to .PDF, Footpad!

    Joe, Thanks. I have not gotten a chance to try it yet, perhaps this weekend. Lynn

    Displaying query in tabbed form

    Thanks everyone. Based on Mac's comment, I created some new tables to put on the tabbed page, I ran the same queries as before and added the query results to the new tables (the ones displayed on the tab in the form). I put the code in the CanArrive on the tabbed sheet - and I first empty...

    Displaying query in tabbed form

    Mac, Thanks, I will give that a try. Lynn

    Displaying query in tabbed form

    JoeNg, I fail to see how saving the query results to another table will solve anything. The results need to go into some table that is displayed on the tab of the form, and the displayed table will "in use" when form is opened (even though that tab is not displayed yet). I know how to display...

    Displaying query in tabbed form

    I've run into something I'm not sure how to get around. I have a tabbed form with the main table shown on the first tab, details on the second and several linked tables on subsequent tabs. However I would like to display on another tab a table that must be created from a query. I placed the...

    Automatically print report to .PDF, Footpad!

    Lance, I was hoping for something that could be used in a Runtime application where I don't know what printers they have. And to assume they only had acrobat reader. Oh, well. If it will only work on my machine that is some help. I have a HP LaserJet 5 (not Postscript) and an HP Inkjet...

    Automatically print report to .PDF, Footpad!

    I know this is an old thread, but I never saw a the resolution. I also would like to be able to automatically print a pdf version of a Paradox report. Lance - did you ever dig up that code? Lynn

    Landscape Reports Won't Print Correctly

    jj, Ebay is a possibility for Paradox 9 or 10. Remember that if you need Runtime, you will have to get the Developer's Edition of Paradox 9. Paradox 10 and 11 are available only as part of Corel WordPerfect Office Professional. You can install only Paradox - you don't have to install the...

    Landscape Reports Won't Print Correctly

    jjones91945, Maybe the FAQs you found mentioned this, but I have landscape reports that print fine in Paradox 7, 9, and 10 and do not print correctly in Paradox 8 - I have to manually change the settings in the printer dialog box. There is probably a work around, but you might want to consider...

    Paradox 11 Report Errors

    Ernie & Lance, I don't know if this might help, but since I've installed Paradox 10 on the machine with Paradox 9 (which was what was used to develop the database) I get this same message in running some reports. And once the Okay is clicked the reports print as fast as ever. I haven't...

    Timer & Status Bar

    Lance Thank you! It works great! I never used the USES block before. At the moment I have a "Please Wait" form with two progress bars on it. One my old colored bar and one the Active X progressbar. And I included the text line from your suggestion. It is working fine. Thanks...

    Timer & Status Bar

    Lance, I figured out how to get the built in progress bar on my form - I'd swear that Paradox 7 never had these! But I'm confused about the custom method. I created one attached to the form with the progress bar on it. But it is being called from the main form with the button that runs the...

    Timer & Status Bar

    Lance, Wow! That seems like a much better approach. I am doing something like the define query, execute query steps you show. And I have written a couple of custom methods in the past. But you are bringing out my ignorance in certain areas. I never heard of the Pos property. I looked...

    Timer & Status Bar

    Lance, Yes the queries (QBE) are run by ObjectPal. And they are fairly complex with most having multiple tables in them. I don't really understand how to do them (or some of them anyway) via a T-Cursor (I have used T-Cursors for editing and lookup). Actually 7 separate Queries are run...

    Timer & Status Bar

    When I put the working directory files on the server, some things ran a lot slower. A couple of buttons on the main form run a bunch of update queries and then open the form. On a standalone computer this takes maybe a second. On the server it takes maybe 5 to 8 seconds. So I created a...

    Paradox On a Network

    Lance & James, Thank you for all the useful info. So far, my Network administrators are reluctant to change the server settings. And since the database is really only out there for informational purposes (the users are not supposed to edit anything, and the changes are made on my computer and...
