Any place to find sample objectpal code?

[JohnRickert]

I am new to objectpal coding. My past has been using Paradox for Dos 4.5. I am trying to convert business code for 4.5 to Paradox 7. I have had a bit of Visual Basic programming but need to see some rather lengthy methods so I can start to visualize the coding technique. Thanks John

John,

There are a couple of places to check:

1)

http://thedbcommunity.com

has lots of neat stuff.

2) My own

http://techtricks.com

has less stuff, but some of it's still neat...(I'm biased, of course.)

Hope this helps...

I don't know about corel paradox 7, but version 8 has a bunch of examples in the help documentation. Help->ObjectPal Reference Topics

The simple stuff:
declare variables in a var block:
var
varname vartype
endvar
all variables go in a var block at the top of the file

Then look at the different types of objects in the reference materials(eg. Logical, String, Number, TextStream,...). Most of them give a link to an example at the bottom, or at least a list of functions related to the object.

the rest is pretty simple, very similar to VB.

Hope that helped a little, good luck! MYenigmaSELF
