    MEMO field Edit Box in Form and Report Field

    Hi FOXUP, I presume your post is in reply to Nifrabar's solution. Mine doesn't involve enlarging the field on the report. Jim

    Onward to Java

    Thanks clipper01, FYI, no xCopy; just a single install .exe generated by Inno Setup. Jim

    Onward to Java

    They looked into .net very seriously and actually chose it originally. But then changed their mind, feeling that it was important for the main app to be "cross-platform." Hence Java. This main app isn't used in-house, but is a data entry and reporting package that they provide to their...

    Onward to Java

    Prompted by the "demise" of VFP my customer has decided to convert all their existing apps, and commence all new development in Java. I don't know anything about Java, so they're looking for someone who does. My question is pretty general and pretty vague: what comes to mind when thinking of...

    problem with editing a field within a form

    Another way a field (is it a textbox?) could be uneditable is if the When event contains code that returns .F. A longshot, but possible. Jim

    XFRX error

    Problem solved. Somewhere on the web I found this: "The xfrxlib.fll library requires three DLLs from Microsoft to be installed: gdiplus.dll, msvcr71.dll and msvcp71.dll." Our installation routine was omitting msvcp71.dll and so I guess it was a hit or miss thing that the dll happened to be...

    XFRX error

    This app has been running reliably for years. The user says that nothing in the environment has changed except for (rather frequent) Windows updates. Jim

    XFRX error

    With no changes to the app the user is getting error code -6 when trying to create a PDF. This error is described in the xfrx user's guide as "xfrxlib.fll cannot be loaded (it is missing or invalid)". In fact the .fll is neither missing nor invalid (it works fine on my computer). We're...

    help for layout of report

    Right, Olaf. My solution assumes a fixed number of fields. Jim

    help for layout of report

    My approach would be to create a cursor prior to running the report wherein the "not wrapped" fields are combined in the same record as the wrapped field. Jim

    help for layout of report

    Hi Bart, Is the wrapped field "Stretch with overflow?" Jim

    VFP cannot start.

    Thanks guys. The Inno Setup install I use for this app seems to work fine all over the world. At this particular installation they installed the program with full administrator rights. I don't have details yet but they now notice that another (different) VFP application is installed at the...

    VFP cannot start.

    A German user of my VFP9 app gets the following two error messages at program launch: Falche Version der Ressourcendatel Visual FoxPro cannot start. Could not load resources. I haven't seen this before. Any ideas? Thanks!!! Jim

    Page frame tab caption label VFP 9v2

    You can overlay a page tab with a label, no problem.

    Page frame tab caption label VFP 9v2

    I don't think you can do this directly. I'd suggest that for the tabs in question leave the caption blank, and put in its place a 2-line label. (It might be tricky to get it looking right.) Jim

    Deleted records not retaining their deleted status in cursor

    The NOFILTER keyword specifies that the result set will be a new, separate cursor rather than just a filtered version of the input table. I can't find any documentation of this, but it seems that in no circumstance will VFP create a cursor containing deleted records. So in all cases, using...
