Re: [dabo-users] Dabo-users Digest, Vol 134, Issue 2
It's a long story, but I had to revert to Dabo 0.9.4 from 0.9.9 due to a problem that developed with the dTextBox control when trying to do regex searches on a database. Short story, the searches became much slower under 0.9.9. If it weren't for that, I would be running the latest version. Here's the traceback when I inserted the print 'VAL ', val statement: (Did the same on a Win 7 system with no errors) and got the the same 'VAL' value as the Win 10 machine.

[dabo-users] dMediaControl in Windows 7 64-bit
I built a simple app to test dMediaControl. It is just a form with a start button, and when the button is hit, an mp3 file loads and plays (I am not showing the player controls on the form). This works fine in Win XP, but in Windows 7 64-bit, nothing plays, but in the command window I see "CHHG" and "STOP". That output is not from my code so I assume it it from code in the dMediaControl class. Another puzzle is that the events MediaLoaded and MediaFinished fire in Win XP, but do not in Win 7 (and I get no traceback). Has this class been tested in the Windows 64 bit environment?

[dabo-users] Requery Not Allowed error
I have a search page in an app that I'm working on that uses the addWhere bizobj method to build a query (MySQL backend). Everything works great until I manage to run a query that returns no records. Then, a message box pops up titled "Requery Not Allowed" with the message "no records in dataset". Hitting the OK button causes a poor repaint of the form (a remnant of the message box is displayed on top of my form) then it appears that the entire dataset is requeried. If I then try to do another search that uses addWhere, the program becomes non-responsive and I have to hit a Ctrl-C on the command line to get out. So, my question is: How can I wrap that error so I don't lock up my program? Also, why should a query that returns zero records cause a lock up in the first place? Possibly I have a basic design flaw.

I have just added the grid to the hours form and everything works as

to cause a problem with the form but you might want to address it.

[dabo-users] Pycon Tutorial dropdownlist problem
Thanks for pointing out the typo in my debugging. Now I can see that the
form knows about the clientBizobj. I cut and pasted in the code from the
tutorial for the afterInitAll of the dropdownlist and also the
getNamesAndValues method for the ClientBizobj. When run, the form opened
with all controls displaying the correct data except the dropdown, which
displayed no data.
After modifying the following lines of the tutorial code, I was finally able
to make the dropdownlist display its data correctly.
Here are the changes I made to the afterInitAll method to get it work:
def afterInitAll(self):
###clientBiz = self.getBizobj("clients")
clientBiz = self.Form.getBizobj("clients")
names, keys = clientBiz.getNamesAndKeys()
###self.ClientList.Choices = names
self.Choices = names
###self.ClientList.Keys = keys
self.Keys = keys
###self.ClientList.ValueMode = "Key"
self.ValueMode = "Key"
Now on to the next section. The tutorial has been excellent up to this
point, by the way.
Thanks,
Steve Rose

[dabo-users] Pycon Tutorial dropdownlist problem
First, please note that I have hand coded my forms for awhile, so I'm rusty
on using the CD.
Using the revised Pycon Tutorial, I tried to get the dropdownlist control
working. I kept getting an error message at runtime that there was no method
called "getNamesAndKeys". I replaced the dropdown's afterInitAll with "pass"
then after doing some debugging I found that the form (apparently) was not
seeing self.clientBizobj.
I put this code in the afterInitAll of the form to try to see what was going
with the bizobjects:
def afterInitAll(self):
print 'afterInitAll'
bzh = self.getBizobj('hours')
print 'bzh: ', bzh
### prints: bzh:
bzc = self.getBizobj('client')
print 'bzc: ', bzc
### ---> prints: None
The form didn't seem to know about the clientBizobj, so I checked the
following:
In my bz folder I have ClientBizobj.py containing Class ClientBizobj using
code pasted from the tutorial.
Also in the bz folder is HoursBizobj.py containing Class HoursBizobj using
code pasted from the tutorial.
Checked both files for indentation errors, etc. and couldn't see any
problems
Also in the bz folder is __init__.py with the import statements for both
HoursBizobj.py and ClientBizobj.py
The form's createBizobjs method looks like this (pasted from the tutorial):
def createBizobjs(self):
hoursBizobj = self.Application.biz.HoursBizobj(self.Connection)
self.addBizobj(hoursBizobj)
clientBizobj = self.Application.biz.ClientBizobj(self.Connection)
self.addBizobj(clientBizobj)
The form's afterInit has just self.requery(). (There is not an explicit
requery of clientBizobj in the tutorial)
I'm at a loss as to why self.clientBizobj is not being created, or if
created, why the form doesn't see the reference.
Obviously I've made a blunder somewhere but I don't know what else to check.
Any help appreciated.

[dabo-users] Pycon Tutorial DropDownList question
I was following along in the tutorial with no problems until I got to the
section on setting up the Client dropdownlist where you wrote:
"Select the control in the code editing window, and select the afterInit()
method. Add the following code to that method:
def getNamesAndKeys(self):
"""Return a 2-tuple of lists of the client names
and their keys.
"""
crs = self.getTempCursor()
crs.execute("""select pkid, clientname
from clients
order by clientname""")
ds = crs.getDataSet()
# Create the lists
names = [rec["clientname"] for rec in ds]
keys = [rec["pkid"] for rec in ds]
return (names, keys)
Let's look at what this is doing: the first line asks the form for a
reference to the client bizobj; it does this by passing the DataSource of
the bizobj it is interested to the form's getBizobj() method."
My first problem is why are we adding the getNamesAndKeys() method to the
dropdownlist's afterInit()?
Second, you wrote that this method was getting a ref to the client bizobj by
the getBizobj() method. I must be blind as I can't see the getBizobj call.
Perhaps you really meant to have the afterInit method for the dropdownlist
to be something like:
def afterInit(self):
clientBiz = self.Form.getBizobj("clients")
names, keys = clientBiz.getNamesAndKeys()
Should that section of the tutorial be revised or, as a rookie, am I missing
something?

[dabo-users] Dabo and Windows 7
I solved the problem after Adrian put me on to the possible culprit. In the Python25/site-packages/win32 folder was another pywintypes.dll. I renamed it, started up various Dabo apps and they all opened without the "Entry Point Not Found" error. I did some more snooping and figured out that the error triggered on the 'import dabo' line. I wonder what subsequently occurs in that statement that needs a call to pywintypes.dll? Why does the error message come from python.exe and not Dabo? It is all way too deep for me but since things are working now, I'll just shut up and be happy.

[dabo-users] Dabo and Windows 7
I've been tearing my hair out trying to get Dabo apps to work on a new Windows 7 machine. When I start any Dabo app, an error message pops up with this arcane message: python.exe - Entry Point Not Found ?PyWinLong_FromHANDLE@@YAPAU_object@@p...@z could not be located in the dynamic link library pywintypes25.dll. The thing is that on my other two XP systems, this error does not occur. Also, when I run simple python programs or wxPython programs on the Win 7 machine, no problems. Only when I run Dabo apps do I get this problem. The only difference I could see on the Win 7 machine was that it was running Python 2.5.4 and the XP's were on 2.5.1, so I installed 2.5.1 but no difference. I also reinstalled Dabo -- no help. I copied pywintypes25.dll from an XP to the Win 7, nada. It must be a Win 7 problem or a configuration - installation issue that I can't see. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Re: [dabo-users] Dabo-users Digest, Vol 64, Issue 40
Thanks for your responses John and Adrian. When I set the textbox as a dDateTextBox it displays but the other TBs display correctly,but they are not linked to date fields plus their textboxes are derived from the dTextBox class. I checked the MySQL table structure and the field in question is definitely a DATE data type. I'm wondering if dDateTextbox is looking for a DATETIME, not a DATE? Any ideas appreciated.

[dabo-users] Dabo error
I've had the same problem as Kevin with the CD for some time now. This also cropped up maybe six months ago but was fixed for a time by an update, then several months ago it broke again. I inquired about the error a few weeks ago and as I recall the advice was to install SVN (which I would like to avoid). Not sure why the web updates haven't fixed it.

[dabo-users] More on passing information between forms
Thanks. I got it working after fixing an incorrect DataSource reference to the TextBox. Nothing showed in the error log but it somehow stopped the keyup event from showing up. Now I can do an incremental search on a grid in a dialog, return it to the main form and process it. Very nice.

To best of my knowledge controlling a dTextBox key events works the same in Dialog or a Form. So show us the code you are using to get the key strokes in the dialog. If this a special case dialog and you find no other way pass the dialog a reference to the calling form. Try something like this: myDialog = dabo.ui.dDialog(self, .) myDialog.CallingForm = self Now myDialog.CallingForm can be used for whatever you see as required. or Any of the other methods of passing data to a dialog --- StripMime Report -- processed MIME parts --- multipart/alternative text/plain (text body -- kept) text/html --- ___ Post Messages to: Dabo-users@leafe.com Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/dabo-users Searchable Archives: http://leafe.com/archives/search/dabo-users This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/28cfef1c0908141634v28f1692cvd142e053fce7b...@mail.gmail.com

Had this problem several months ago but it went away after an update. Now
it's back. I start the CD and get a form titled New Form where I then select

following trackback:

[dabo-users] Suppressing "Requerying dataset" message and more
Using lockDisplay() and unlockDisplay() works very well to stop the flashing. Thanks. If you do update Dabo to allow the suppressing of the "Requering dataset" message, could you post something that would show how to implement that option? Thanks for the great support.

Typically, you would have the form do this to prevent any interim redrawing, but you can call it on a single control if you wish. Be sure to always call unlockDisplay() or you will end up with a very frustrated user! > 2. Can the "Requerying dataset" message be suppressed? Currently, no.

[dabo-users] Suppressing "Requerying dataset" message and more
I am working on an application which has a module that repeatedly queries and counts records in a scan of a table. In the process there is lots of "flashing" in a child grid as it is updated, in addition to the message "Please wait... Requerying dataset". The entire processing takes only 1.5 seconds but looks annoying on screen. So, two questions. 1. Is there anyway to tell Dabo not to update a grid or the whole ui until all the processing is complete? Something like: self.update( False ) self.doAllProcessing() self.update( True ) 2. Can the "Requerying dataset" message be suppressed?

[dabo-users] Independent BizObjects not working with grid
Sorry to beat this subject to death. Using Paul's example of setting a
fictitious table name as the DataSource when creating a BizObject, I was
able to get multiple bizobjs working independently on the same table.
self.Connection = self.Application.getConnectionByName("myconn")
self.bzCatsAll = Cats(self.Connection,DataSource='cats_all')
self.bzCatsSome = Cats(self.Connection,DataSource='cats_some')
The problem comes when I try to set a grid's DataSource to the fictitious
table name. I cannot get the grid to display the table data.
grid.DataSource = 'cats_all' does not seem to work. Same for 'cats_some'.
I have pasted in a turn-key example to show you what I've done. Can you
point our where I have gone wrong? Gmail eats tab stops so I used spaces
for indenting. Still didn't help much.

Re: [dabo-users] Dabo-users Digest, Vol 50, Issue 14
Paul,
I was able to get two bzobjects working on the same table independently by
using your technique of creating 2 fictitious datasource names and only
adding the primary bzobj to the form. That was some black magic. The other
method you suggested of not putting in the addField and friends statements I
didn't quite get -- upper division work for sure! As long as I have a
method that works, that's all that matters. Thanks for your brilliance
again.

[dabo-users] Independent Bizobjects???
Thanks for your patience guys. I can now work with the cats and dogs tables
with 2 independent bizobjs. But I think I'm missing some deeper
understanding of bizobjects. If you can set me straight on the following
example, I think I might get it through my thick head:
Say I have a form with 2 grids and 1 bizobj, "bizcats", datasourced to a
"cats" table. I want the first grid to display ALL the cat records in the
table. The second grid will display only results from queries run against
the same cats table ("select * from cats where color = 'black' "). How do I
set things up so that a query on the cats table does not affect the results
seen in the first grid, which should still display all records in the cats
table? So, I guess what I'm trying to get at is how can I work with the
same table and have multiple, independent views of it on the form's
controls. Coming from a dBase background, I'd just use multiple query
objects to do the job, but I can't change my thinking enough to do this task
using bizobjs. Hope this make sense.

[dabo-users] Independent Bizobjects???
Another rookie question. Is it possible to have 2 bizobjs on the same form and have each be independent of one another? To make my question as generic as possible, say you have a form and two grids and a database containing two tables: 'cats' and 'dogs'. I want one grid datasourced to cats and the other to dogs. It seems that unless the two tables are linked and an addChild statement is in the createBizobj method, only the primary bizobj is active and the other bizobj is ignored. This happens whether I handcode or use the CD. Is that the way bizobjs are supposed to work? My only work-around so far has been to create datasets and do select statements directly on the tables, bypassing bizobjs altogether -- not what I want to do.

[dabo-users] ListBox ListSelection event problem
Thanks Ed. Your support is incredible. Using Hit instead of ListSelection did the job. Just a small point but shouldn't this event be removed from the ListBox section in the Dabo API? And thanks for mentioning autobind events. I had forgotten about that very cool feature. Steve Rose + > As a rank beginner, I've probably missed something silly. Not silly at all - it is a little confusing. There are two distinct controls: dListBox and dListControl. The former is the traditional listbox common in UIs; the latter is a hybrid of grids and lists that can do some pretty cool things, but is overkill for most common uses. ListSelection events only apply to dListControl, not dListBox. For dListBox, you want to bind to the Hit method. > lstBox.bindEvent(dabo.dEvents.ListSelection, self.onListSelection) > > def onListSelection(self,evt): > print 'list hit' One thing I should point out: if you create a method whose name is on, and that event is raised by the class, then it will be automatically bound to the event for you. So in this code you've tried to bind to the event twice: once with the explicit binding, and once with the auto-binding. --- StripMime Report -- processed MIME parts --- multipart/alternative text/plain (text body -- kept) text/html --- ___ Post Messages to: Dabo-users@leafe.com Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/dabo-users Searchable Archives: http://leafe.com/archives/search/dabo-users This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
[dabo-users] ListBox ListSelection event problem
Sorry to take your time but try as I might, I can't get the ListSection event of of the ListBox to fire. In my hand coded test I have these lines to set up the listbox: lstBox = dabo.ui.dListBox(self,RegID='lstBox',Width=300,Height=200,Left=20,Top=200) lstBox.bindEvent(dabo.dEvents.ListSelection, self.onListSelection) def onListSelection(self,evt): print 'list hit' When a listbox item is selected, the print statement is not executed. As a second test, I created a simple form in the CD and dropped a listbox on it. I set up a few choices for the listbox, then selected the method 'onListSelection'. That method had the one-liner print 'list hit'. Running that form and selecting an item from the listbox again did nothing. As a rank beginner, I've probably missed something silly.

I have a form with a pageframe. The detail page has a maskedTextBox to display and edit a phone number and is constructed this way: dabo.ui.dMaskedTextBox(self,Width=100,DataSource = "address",DataField="HomePhone",Mask="###-###-"). This displays as expected, i.e., 555-222-. Data saved to the table from the maskedTextBox is saved without the dashes. On the first page I have a grid displaying records from the same table. One column is linked to the phone number but displays the phone number without the dashes, i.e., 555222. Is there a way to format this column so it appears as phone number with the dashes?

[dabo-users] createForm not working as expected
I am trying to create and use a custom dialog. Bottom line is I get a long
traceback when I call the dialog using the createForm method. Why doesn't
this work?:
Open class designer.
>From the menu select File, New Class..., OK/CancelDialog.
Add a label, Caption = "Hello"
>From menu, select Save as class. This pops up the dialog "Do you want to
save, The contents of the form or Just the selection." The default is "Just
the selection" (seems opposite to me). I select Contents of the form.
This calls a Save As dialog. I save it as HelloDialog.cdxml.
Now I want to use the dialog.
I create a new form in the designer by selecting New Class, Form. I add a
panel and a button. In the button's onHit event, I have this code:
dlg = dabo.ui.createForm("HelloDialog.cdxml")
dlg.Show()
dlg.Release()
I save this as a runnable app, "HelloMainForm.py", in the same directory as
the cdxml file.
When I run HelloMainForm.py and click the button, I get a long traceback
ending with:
File "C:\Python25\lib\site-packages\wx-2.8-msw-unicode\wx\_windows.p9, in
Create
return _windows_.Panel_Create(*args, **kwargs)
wx._core.PyAssertionError: C++ assertion "parent" failed at ..\..\src\
.cpp(572) in wxWindow::Create(): can't create wxWindow without parent
What am I doing wrong?

Re: [dabo-users] Dabo-users Digest, Vol 44, Issue 4
Problems with new()
Similar to Adrian's issue, I too lose the connection between parent and
child when I click the form's pushbutton and the onHit event triggers
self.Form.new(). The only workaround I could come up with was to add
self.FillLinkFromParent = True to the ChildBizObj. Then, in the
createBizojbs method I had to add the following:
parentBizobj.NewChildOnNew = True
childBizobj.NewRecordOnNewParent = True
This maintains the relationship between and child but it forces the creation
a new and sometimes unwanted child record. Also, I am using MySQL for the
backend and have checked to see if any constraints werer lurking that might
be causing the problem but I can't see any issues there either, but I am far
from an expert on MySQL.
Here is the code for the Bizobjs and the createBizojb method:
class ParentBizobj(dabo.biz.dBizobj):
def afterInit(self):
self.DataSource = "parent"
self.KeyField = "pkid"
self.addFrom("parent")
self.addField("pkid")
self.addField("SSN")
self.addField("Last")
self.addField("First")
class ChildBizobj(dabo.biz.dBizobj):
def afterInit(self):
self.DataSource = "child"
self.KeyField = "pkid"
self.addFrom("child")
self.addField("ChildNo")
self.addField("pkid")
self.addField("Last")
self.addField("First")
self.ParentLinkField = 'pkid'
self.LinkField = "ChildNo"
self.FillLinkFromParent = True
def createBizobjs(self):
self.Application.addConnectFile("ParentChild.cnxml")
self.Connection = self.Application.getConnectionByName("ParentChild")
parentBizobj = ParentBizobj(self.Connection)
self.addBizobj(parentBizobj)
childBizobj = ChildBizobj(self.Connection)
self.addBizobj(childBizobj)
parentBizobj.addChild(childBizobj)
parentBizobj.NewChildOnNew = True
childBizobj.NewRecordOnNewParent = True
Any suggestions?

Re: [dabo-users] Dabo-users Digest, Vol 43, Issue 1
Back on Dec 31 I submitted a request for help with a problem of adding a new record to a form with a parent-child child relationship. You requested a traceback which I sent. I haven't seen a response but I know Ed's life has been disrupted so it may have gotten lost in the shuffle. I've included the correspondence below in hopes you might be able to shed some light on it.

[dabo-users] Parent-Child link lost on Proself.Form.new()
I have set up a simple form with a parent child relationship. It has the
usual thing with textfields linking to parent data and a grid linking to the
child records. The test database is just a parent table with 3 records
(firstname, lastname, pkid) and child (firstname, lastname, pkid, childNo).
The parentBizobj's key field is pkid. The chidNo field is indexed as a
foreign key to the parent pkid. The childBizobj has its keyfield set to pkid
and self.LinkField = "ChildNo".
Four buttons handle first, prior, next and last navigation in the parent.
This works perfectly as the grid always updates correctly when navigation
occurs in the parent table. Three other buttons are supposed to handle new,
save and cancel functions. When I click New (code: self.Form.new() or
self.Form.new('parent'), I lose the link to the grid. I can still navigate
the parent, but the link to the child records are lost. The traceback is
lengthy and not too helpful, but the gist of it seems to be that the grid
loses its current row number and I see such things as "uiIndex < m_nCount
failed in wxBaseArray" blah, blah. Obviously the grid has lost its link to
the parent.
Without bogging you down with all the details, is there usually a common
error beginners make when having problems adding a record to a parent table
linked to a child? I must be doing something right if I can navigate OK but
somehow I am missing something basic about adding a record to a parent.
BTW, new() works fine in a simple form with only one table.

[dabo-users] Dabo runtime no workie
I get no error message that I can see. When I, for example, drop a file such as Montana.py onto the Dabo runtime icon, a command window flashes open for about 2 seconds, files seems to begin to load, then the window disappears. Everything worked perfectly until the update. If I'm the only one with this problem, maybe I should download another copy of the dabo demo package from the website and reinstall.

Re: [dabo-users] Dabo-users Digest, Vol 42, Issue 4
I really appreciate John Fabiani's tutorials. To my knowledge there is
nothing in the Dabo on-line documentation that explains Dabo programming to
the beginner so well. I thank Ed for his corrections to John's work but
they did seem to come across a little like a school master correcting his
pupil in front of the class. Maybe it is just me, but they seemed to have a
slightly harsh tone and I'm sure Ed did not intend them be so. I hope John
continues his tutorials as these are sorely needed, at least by me.

[dabo-users] Newbie (bozzo?) again trying out App Wizard
HI Ed, Still no luck with the App Wizard using the runtime. Downloaded the latest version of the RUNTIME version of Dabo for Windows. This time the install checked for an updated version, found it, then asked me to rerun the runtime exe. I then clicked on the shortcut to the App Wizard and it started up as expected. I again used the defaults to make the webtest.py program which was created in "C:\Program Files\Dabo Runtime\ide\wizards\AppWizard\webtest". I then navigated to that folder and typed in "python webtest.py" but the program failed again at line 8: import dabo. No module named Dabo. I do have Python 2.5 installed on my system in C:\Python25 and this is in my path statement too. Do you think this is confusing the Dabo runtime? Would love to get this working.

[dabo-users] Newbie trying out App Wizard
Hello Ed, I downloaded the latest Dabo Runtime Installer and installed the software to try out your product. Running Win XP . In the Common folder, I can click on the links and run the demos just fine. I then started up the App Wizard and used the defaults to create the webtest.py program in the default folder. Following instructions, I navigated to "C:\Program Files\Dabo Runtime\ide\wizards\AppWizard\webtest" and typed "python webtest.py" in the command window. Got this traceback: File "webtest.py", line 8, in import dabo Import Error: No module named dabo Line 8 corresponds to the line "Import dabo" Do I have to muck around setting paths to make this demo work? I would have thought that the App Wizard would be able to create a program that would know where to import dabo from. Can you tell me what I'm missing here?

[dabo-users] More on quick death of new app and traceback
Still trying to determine why my apps generated by the AppWizard die quickly. Here are the code lines from "Customer.py". Everything appears to be o.k -- self.Caption = "Customer" looks like all ascii to me. Couldn't see any strange non-ascii characters when looking at it in Notepad either. from Base import Base class Customer(Base): def initProperties(self): self.super() self.Caption = "Customer" self.DataSource = "customer" self.KeyField = "pkid" Ditto for "Pet.py" from Base import Base class Pet(Base): def initProperties(self): Pet.doDefault() self.Caption = "Pet" self.DataSource = "pet" self.KeyField = None I ran the AppWizard on the Zipcodes table in the Webtest db and got the exact same traceback as I did from using the Customer table. This time I was able to use your suggestion of using Edit from the left top icon in the command window. Thanks for that as I had completely forgotten that little trick. Here is the version info from about.py: Platform: Win Python Version: 2.4.3 on win32 Dabo Version: Version 0.7.1s; Revision 2490 UI Version: 2.6.3.3 on wxMSW All the best, Steve ___ Post Messages to: Dabo-users@leafe.com Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/dabo-users

I ran the webtest.py program from the command prompt ('python
webtest.py') and got this traceback. Note, I had to hand type the
output as I have forgotten how to pipe the message to a text file from a
DOS prompt (prn or something?). Hope I typed it correctly as it is
quite a mess.

I tried to find "dabo/dabo/dialogs/about.py" in the runtime installation

Good luck,

[dabo-users] More on quick death of new app
I'm fairly new to Python and just dabbling in Dabo. Trying to use the AppWiz and am having a similar problem as Joshua Levy detailed recently. Using Win XP, Python 2.4. I create the webtest app in the AppWizard. I then navigate to the folder, double click on "webtest.py". A form briefly opens, then disappears without a trace. Same problem if I load and run it in the latest Dabo Runtime.exe. If I run it from Stani's Python Editor, the form also flashes open and closed but leaves a whole series of error messages in the traceback. First message: Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:\Python24\CodeDabo\webtest\webtest.py", line 56, in ? frm(app.MainForm).show() ... ... ... Last message: File "C:\Python24\lib\gettext.py", line 217, in ugettext return unicode(message) UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0x83 in position 2: ordinal not in range(128) Script terminated. To further test the AppWizard I created an app using a local database "menagerie" from the MySQL tutorial. The AppWiz connects to the menagerie database, I then select the only table in the db: pet. Then app is then created. Double clicking on menagerie.py I get the same problem of the app flashing open, then closing without a trace. When run in Stani's, I get again many error messages also, probably too tedious to go into in detail. I am wondering if I have path problems or maybe it is Windows specific but this is way too complicated for me to debug. Out of curiosity, have you run these apps on XP without problems? Would love to get this Dabo thing working like it does on the screencasts. It really looks impressive. ___ Post Messages to: Dabo-users@leafe.com Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/dabo-users
[dabo-users] Install problem?
I am just trying out Dabo and would like to use the Designer after seeing your screencast. I have downloaded and extracted dabo-0.6.5-win.zip, dabodemo-0.6-win.zip, daboide-0.5.6-win.zip. Running Win XP. My stupid question is: which Python file do I run to bring up "The Designer". All I see are ReportDesigner.py and MenuDesigner.py. -- not what I want. Any suggestions appreciated. Sorry to be so dense. Steve ___ Post Messages to: Dabo-users@leafe.com Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/dabo-users
