    Autocomplete within Edit Object?

    To Mike and Marcia (and Andy): Marcia I found it on MSDN July 04 (http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dnfoxtk04/html/ft04g16.asp) and am studying this excellent piece to try to combine it with Mike's. I've started with Mike's menu list controls and table (which...

    Autocomplete within Edit Object?

    After *hard thought*, Using your "Insert Phrase" short menu program (with its additional adhoc flexibility) seems the best starting point. It may still become tricky to use keypress and/or Interactive Change events to slicken entries: E.g., (1) To search 'your phrases'/invoke your shortmenu...

    Autocomplete within Edit Object?

    Thanks Mike, Your "Insert Prase" Form to "Speed Up Text Entry" seems a valuable workaround, especially for discrete phrases and/or complex-spelled words. I may have to succomb to it at this point. I'll have to study Intellisense, as to its feasibility (if any) in a user environment. I...

    Form Display Issues

    This may be of value: I've had the problem with loaded pageframes and grids. When using child-table references (possibly with *grand-child* alias) in grid-column DYNAMICfontcolor (or such); refreshes were skippy and/or failing off other object-captions. ...regardless of machine or XP service...

    Autocomplete within Edit Object?

    I'm trying to program an *autocomplete* (for medical terms) with an Edit Object (Memo field); its getting tricky. Any suggestions are appreciated in advance. Ideally, we'd be able to: (1) Start typing in a word and it finishes the word, to *stuff* it in the paragraph. Currently I'm using the...

    Outlook: My.exe as a COM object

    Looks like awesome VB script (albeit a year has passed). I'll test and get back if necessary. Thanks, Philip

    Rethinking How BIG should MY.EXE become?

    OK then. I feel more confident now about redundancy-coding with the ffc's themselves. Thanks all. In sum, if many ffc's were used in compiling big apps, I shouldn't much regard that old 'lean-and-clean' programming paradigm. Philip

    Rethinking How BIG should MY.EXE become?

    ...And mine dropped from 3MB to 2.3MB (just now). But Nro's condensed 7MB file still seems a bit large. I'm still curious how large can an EXE get before expecting complications?

    Rethinking How BIG should MY.EXE become?

    Mike, I have not so much as heard of 'the debug info', I'll look at that now. Thanks, Philip

    VFP-9: 2 TIFF ReportListener Woes?

    1) TIFF conversion seems to have problems with large Bitmaps in reports. 2) TIFF conversion must condense out data when a report file is cluttered against page margins. Any of you have this problem ?

    Rethinking How BIG should MY.EXE become?

    I've condensed 'MY.EXE' down to 3 Mbytes and 550 symbols (VFP9). I've packed/cleaned classes and do use a single 'LIBS' folder (vs. the VFP\FFC folder). Likewise, Included Bitmaps and Reports are not very large. Is the App too big? I'm paranoid about bloating up redundant classes from the...

    After VFP9 Installation: "Cannot Locate the VFP support library

    Thanks for your peaceful words, Dan. I've done reinstallations but not recompilations in version 9. If that fails I'll repost. Philip

    After VFP9 Installation: "Cannot Locate the VFP support library

    I just installed VFP9 over VFP8 and things were fine. Then I uninstalled VFP8 (which I probably should have done 1st). I then tried to launch an exe on another computer and got the message: "Cannot Locate the Microsoft Visual FoxPro support library" So, I uninstalled and reinstalled VFP9...

    What's your wish list for VFP 10.0?

    As an amateurish dedicated VFP programmer and physician (about 12 years) who has thankfully leached on to you VFP gurus (you know who you are), I really appreciate Craig's last statement, and Mike Lewis's (above). More than once, I was told I needed to port to VB (before VFP COM commands...

    Same COM Commands in Outlook versions?

    Thanks Mike and Darrell, this helps. Philip

    Same COM Commands in Outlook versions?

    Are my COM commands for Outlook XP OK for Outlook 2003, etc. I noticed my COM commands for Outlook 2000 don't work at all.

    Date ControlSource Woes in non-grid controls

    Mike, the expression is valid, yes, but not in textbox.ControlSource. I'll research dateformat as you suggest. Bob, I'm studying your function and will give further feedback if it helps. Thanks immensely, Philip

    A long lost programmer - To return or not to return ???

    Josel, With no offense to the other forums out there, this forum has served me best on all VFP levels. (I'm a meager yet dedicated physician-programmer) I personally don't think you need to go any of the others. Of course I may be wrong. Also, VFP help files, foundation classes, samples...

    Date ControlSource Woes in non-grid controls

    In non-grid field-controls I've used date fields with 'FORMAT'='YL' (this being Windows long date format). This is rough because of Window's 'Region' variances in Control Panel. I've tried the below expression and it fails with error message "Not a variable reference"...

    API Call to Windows Regional Settings in Control Panel

    After lurking a bit on the thread "Install a Font" I wondered: Might it be feasible to change the "Long Date" setting programatically using API calls. Any wild ideas would certainly be appreciated? Thanks, Philip
