It sounds like you have the field indexed, which may be the cause of the slow response (multiple things happening per row updated).
A standard procedure is to remove indices, apply update, and re-impose indices.

If you are running v2000 or later, and if the text is actually within the tables, in the correct field types (see manual or online help) then you can use SQL Server for full text searching.
However, if the items are held in binary form (eg as .pdf files within a binary BLOb) or held outside...
Where is your Paradox Net directory for each client ?
Look at the Paradox FAQ on Net Rules and also the one on Operating Systems (treat your 2003 server as though it was a 2000 or Win NT system).

Do you have some other field covering the field you're trying to click onto ? In design mode, select it and then use the format menu to Bring To Front (or Top). Run it again to see if that fixes things ...

As Lewy has pointed out, there's lots of Help on the table.restructure() method.
However, I would give very serious thought to the desirability of doing this "on the fly".
What are your reasons for doing this ?
What are the risks ?
What are the hoped-for benefits ?
I would suggest that...
SELECT *
FROM ACTIVITY
WHERE ACTV_BEGIN_DATE = #27-Aug-2003#
have you tried something like
SELECT *
FROM ACTIVITY
WHERE ACTV_BEGIN_DATE = "08/27/2003"
which is a more normal date format ?
did you clear your problem ?
If not, what OS are you usiong to get filenames
Z:\DBS\WOFFMEM\PDOXUSRS.LCK.FILE:
Z:\DBS\WOFFMEM\PARADOX.LCK.TABLE:wm2
?
Z:\DBS\WOFFMEM\PDOXUSRS.LCK
Z:\DBS\WOFFMEM\PARADOX.LCK
should be what you have. Normally, you should get all users to log off, delete all...

not so, actually. Just the program with focus, as it just stuffs the keyboard buffer.

Many thanks everyone - I got it to work fine ! One interesting thing: the first time I did it I put the

Or

I'm using CR 9.2.0.448 based on MS SQL Server 2000. My company is a REIT, dealing with malls. We identify a property either by number or by name - both varchar fields. I can create parameter inputs for either one, but some users want one method (by name) and some the other (by number).
Can I...
One last possibility: check that your workstations have the latest Novell client software installations - from Novell, not MS !
If it still doesn't work, and if you _are_ using compatibilty on the XP machines, and if there is only a small amount of disk available (5 GB may well cause any 16-bit...
That's ok - the last bit should have been preceded by "-p", but it doesn't really matter, as you'll always have rights to your home directory !
More to the point, you should have been able to access the new directory and create/edit new tables there.
However, what worries me is that...
Hi Carsten,
Firstly, don't panic - I've seen these before, and they're _usually_ (tho' not always) due to file system problems.
Could you test things and answer these questions for me, please:
1. Log in as yourself (administrator group, I suppose) at your own workstation and create these...
Carsten,
look back at your post:
"My r/w settings are unlimited, I've tried to rename the database folder and make a new one, restoring all files to the new folder, but I can't r/w *.db files at that drive.
If I create a folder on my workstation, it works perfectly."
Your first...
Having just read through the thread, I feel that I have to add this to what Lance the Footpad has said.
I have developed in Paradox and Windows NT 4 and then Windows 2000 ever since Windows NT 4 came out. Aside from striving to use the latest version of Paradox, so as to minimise the shock of...
