Good Afternoon All:
Thanks for all the good ideas in the many responses.
Since I developed this application in VFP 6 not all the arguments in the
strconv are available. There are no base64 options.
So I found some great code in http://fox.wikis.com/wc.dll?Wiki~VfpBase64 that I
used to convert the JPG to a base64 string.
I saved it in record 1 of the VCX in the user memo field (as suggested below).
Then just before I added the vcx to the form I opened the vcx table and sent
the base64 characters to the decoding section to save that as a JPG.
But it didn't work! Every time I tried to open the file and extract the memo
field contents I received a file is in use error. I everything I know to close
that VCX didn't work and it was still open. I issued a release classlib
vcx_name and the response was the VCX does not exist. For the future, if
someone knows how this could be accomplished it would be appreciated.
So I took the contents out of the VCX and placed it in a method of so that
could be converted back and of course the line was too long. So I broke the
string into 100 character segments end saved it in an array. I then built the
string to send to the conversion and it worked.
I don't understand the property constructs in the below code.
Regardless, it is working and it was very time consuming!
Thanks again!
Best regards,
Jack

Subject: Re: JPG file in a VCX
you could do this:
&& At design time
_cliptext = JustFname(yourImageFile) + '|' +
Strconv(FileToStr(yourImageFile),13) && encodes image contents into base64
IF Len(_cliptext) <= 8.192
&& paste into yourProperty in property window
PROCEDURE yourProperty_access && in your class.vcx
LOCAL lcFile
lcFile = Addbs(Sys(2023) + GetWordNum(this.yourProperty, 1, '|'))
RETURN Iif(StrToFile(Strconv(GetWordNum(this.yourProperty, 2, '|'),
14), m.lcFile) > 0; && decodes image contents from base64
, m.lcFile; && image file address
, .NULL.;
)
ELSE
&& in IDE
USE your.vcx
LOCATE FOR objname = 'yourClass'
REPLACE user WITH _cliptext
&& At runtime, when application starts:
USE your.vcx NOUPDATE
LOCATE FOR objname = 'yourClass'
lcFile = Addbs(Sys(2023) + GetWordNum(User, 1, '|'))
StrToFile(Strconv(GetWordNum(User, 2, '|'), 14), m.lcFile)
USE
ENDIF

Good Morning All:
I have a class library and was wondering if it is possible to embed a JPG so a
separate file does not need to be sent with the VCX.
Currently I am entering the JPG's file spec from a directory in the 'picture'
construct.
Thanks for any help.
Regards,
Jack
