Chris In the context of this particular application, dropping text isn't an issue as it's never needed, but dropping files is. It's not used that much, perhaps a couple of times a day by four or five of the (20-odd) users, but when it is, it's always to import files. There could be any one of...

Thanks Chris Unfortunately it doesn't demonstrate anything I don't already know, as my _screen.Resize() event code is working just fine. I'm loath to have to remove the existing functionality which my client enjoys in VFP6, but must concede that I haven't actually tried it on a form-only basis...

Hi Mike In the VFP6 code, the functions within the class were declared as oScr.OLEDragOver(), and VFP8 didn't like this. Sure enough, when I referred back to the original article, someone else had documented this & provided the alternative declaration (above). I should clarify that I've...

I've successfully implemented OLEDragDrop in a VFP6 project so that my users can drag-and-drop a file anywhere on the application and a method fires to determine what to do with it. I cribbed the code from http://fox.wikis.com/wc.dll?Wiki~ScreenMethods~VFP Having now upgraded the project to...

Sorry Marcia, I thought I'd made that clear in the original post but I guess it's only obvious when you're already as close to the problem as I am. I'm not actually moving record pointers at all, the form works on the basis of a single record at a time because it contains quite a lot of data...

Hi Marcia Thanks, but that's not the point - I only TableUpdate() it when I'm about to either exit the form or open a new record. If I'm closing the form, the problem doesn't appear. If I'm moving to another record (or rather actually loading a new record from the master table into my...

(Apologies to anyone who has seen & replied to this in another forum, some helpful soul decided to delete it.) I have a view defined which draws a single record from a master table for editing in a form, based on it's primary key. When I TableUpdate() it, changes to the view ("ThisMember") are...

Thanks gents. I already had a MEMLIMIT set, so have experimented with TAMEDOS and all sorts of compatibility permutations but to no avail - the FPD application window just freezes completely, even the clock dies, but Windows itself carries on just fine. As it is, the problem has gone away - my...

My client has just scrapped her old Win98 box and replaced it with another, considerably faster (3.4GHz), running XP. Now the FoxPro DOS 2.6 application which she uses has started freezing on her. It's still working fine on other machines on the network, including (apparently) another XP box...

I'm told that the people who provide front-line support for this app have already looked at that but I'll check for myself. Thanks, Keith Keith Trangmar Harlend Computer Services Maidstone, Kent. UK.

I have an HTML form stored as a .HTA file so that it can do some useful stuff in the script associated with various buttons. This has been working reliably for several years, then suddenly this morning (at only a couple of sites) the script has apparently just stopped running - it's not broken...

Thanks, Rick, I'll give that a try. Keith Trangmar Harlend Computer Services Maidstone, Kent. UK.

I've built a simple function into my DBC which interrogates a set of records from it's child tables and returns a character string. I've tested this locally within VFP and it all works tickety-boo. My colleague, who works in VB.NET, now needs to be able to call this stored procedure using...

Are you implying that I can define a "myfunction.js" and call it like that? If so, I'll give it a try. Keith Trangmar Harlend Computer Services Maidstone, Kent. UK.

This might seem like an obvious one, but it's not quite how it sounds. I have two scripts which are going to run in the Windows Scripting Host environment, i.e. outside the context of a web page. Script A needs to run a function which is defined in script B, which will in turn make calls back...

Ah, splendid, thanks chaps, that'll do nicely. Keith Trangmar Harlend Computer Services Maidstone, Kent. UK.

If you're running the script inside a browser, I'm not aware that you can - there are so many restrictions imposed in this context (for good reason) that there's very little that you can usefully do. OTOH if you're running under the Windows Scripting Host, or in an HTA, you can use the...

I hope this is the right forum to ask in. I'm using a JS-based script under the Windows Scripting Host to run a series of processes. One of them has started failing occasionally, and as I don't have any error handling yet built into my script, the whole thing just dies at that point. I want to...

Another approach would be to build the whole SELECT statement as one big string (which you could then examine easily) and then use macros substitution to run it. Something like this: TEXT TO strSQL SELECT DISTINCT transact.a, transact.b, transact.c, ; transact.d, transact.e, transact.f, ...

Just an idea, you could write your automation code in something like VBscript & then use ShellExecute to run the script, which would then be ticking along in it's own thread. You'd have to figure out some mechanism for the script to notify your application if/when it finishes, assuming you need...
