RE: New Year Brain Teaser...
Thanks everyone for your input. Just as I thought it was just one of those things and re-generating the form from scratch resulted in the whole thing working. I hate it when this happens but tracing why is secondary to getting the form working so I have saved all the non-working system for later analysis. Dave -Original Message- From: ProFox [mailto:profox-boun...@leafe.com] On Behalf Of Dave Crozier Sent: 06 January 2017 14:20 To: ProFox Email List Subject: New Year Brain Teaser... Gentlemen, A bit of a problem here and I don't know what is causing it: 1. The result - a dreaded C5 error from VFP9 2. The scenario: Non Modal Form with private datasession and one table open in the session... I want to use a data object to hold data in and then use this object to populate various controls on the form. Initially none of the controls have a controlsource property assigned and they are allocated programmatically at runtime in the init. The Form has a property added called oData added at design time. In the init of the form the oData property is assigned i.e. Select Scatter name Thisform.oData memo What I ultimately want to do is the following: Thisform.txtText1.ControlSource = "Thisform.oData.Field1" ... for each of the form controls etc. The exit button on the form simply releases the form and should return back to the development mode but it doesn't - simply throwing a C5 error every time. I have now got the bones of the problem down to the init of the form and the click of the exit button and no runtime controlsource setup for the form controls, and have a simple blank form with no controls on it so they are not the problem. I have even tried assigning the oData property at runtime in the init() with: Thisform.AddProperty("oData", null) immediately before the scatter ...and a lot of other "potential get arounds" all to no avail. If I leave out the scatter then the form loads and exits no problem but as I say throws a C5 on form clicking the exit button as soon as it hits the return after Thisform.release Ideas please as this is now driving me potty!

RE: RIP Sytze
He will be missed by many her and it really does make one think about enjoying every day as it comes, no matter what or how you feel. My skirmish with near death a couple of years ago (double pulmonary embolism) taught me that lesson in that respect. Certainly makes one aware of your own mortality though and the fact that we all have a lifecycle length. Condolences from here in the UK and the group in general. I will miss our out of group email chats which we had on many occasions.

It's always sad when one of our virtual friends passes on. Sytze was a good contributor as he shared info and posed interesting questions, then participated with developing solutions. We'll miss him.

Re: VFP tables likely victims for ransomware?
Maybe. If you have the SQL files on the same machine, or on a Windows share accessible from that machine (explicitly NOT a best practice for data server files), then any files found could be encrypted by ransomware.

RE: VFP tables likely victims for ransomware?
They're definitely subject to ransomware crap like cryptlocker and locky because they live in and are under control of the file system. OTOH I'm sure some clever a** is working on a way to use SQL APIs to encrypt that data, too. -- rk -Original Message- From: ProfoxTech [mailto:profoxtech-boun...@leafe.com] On Behalf Of mbsoftwaresoluti...@mbsoftwaresolutions.com Sent: Monday, January 09, 2017 4:56 PM To: profoxt...@leafe.com Subject: VFP tables likely victims for ransomware? http://www.nbcnews.com/tech/security/ransomware-now-billion-dollar-year-crime-growing-n704646 Are VFP files more susceptible than say data in a RDBMS like SQL Server or MySQL? ___ Post Messages to: ProFox@leafe.com Subscription Maintenance: http://mail.leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://mail.leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/bn4pr10mb091311ea9f0556462f4e278dd2...@bn4pr10mb0913.namprd10.prod.outlook.com ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.

RE: VFP tables likely victims for ransomware?
To the best of my knowledge, the physical files that make up an MS SQL DB are locked by the database engine. Having said that, if the bad guys decide it's worth the effort they will figure out a way to get to them. Most ransomware that I've had some experience with go for low hanging fruit; all those office docs and jpgs, etc that live out on the network, of which the vast majority will not be locked at any given time. But I also think I've recently read about some new variants that encrypt entire volumes... -- rk -Original Message- From: ProfoxTech [mailto:profoxtech-boun...@leafe.com] On Behalf Of Tracy Pearson Sent: Monday, January 09, 2017 5:14 PM To: profoxt...@leafe.com Subject: RE: VFP tables likely victims for ransomware? mbsoftwaresoluti...@mbsoftwaresolutions.com wrote on 2017-01-09: > http://www.nbcnews.com/tech/security/ransomware-now-billion-dollar-year-crim e-growing-n704646 > > Are VFP files more susceptible than say data in a RDBMS like SQL Server > or MySQL? > Mike, If the RDBMS opens and locks the file for a longer period of time than the VFP tables do, then yes.

RE: VFP tables likely victims for ransomware?
Absolutely since something like SQL Server typically has the data files open all the time (even when the apps that use the data are shut down). However, SQL Server Express apps that have the data locally or in a peer-to-peer setup (which is not all that uncommon for a vertical market application) often have the files available to be encrypted if the SQL Server service is shut down for whatever reason. Just not common. Unfortunately, VFP apps with VFP data open and close tables as needed and definitely close them when they are shut down. I've seen it many times where some tables are good and some are encrypted because the user was only opening some of them in the course of using the app. But VFP data is not the only problem, what about something as simple as an INI file, or more likely, Word/Excel docs that are automated, graphic images, and historical PDF reports. Restoring is only one part of it. You have to consider all the time it takes being down while restores are happening, and the cost of the IT people to get things back to normal. And rebuilding the machine where it was originally opened. I've seen so much time and money lost by people who are tricked into installing ransomware, it is not funny. I wish a couple of them would be tossed in jail and fined to the highest limit to make a point that they can be caught. They are geniuses that we probably would not want to compete with in the software marketplace so it is unlikely. Easiest way to solve it is to not open stuff that you have no business opening (although they are remarkably engineered), and do religious backups of your data. A lot of companies do not allow attachments. Ransomware is probably the number one reason we get new subscriptions to CleverFox Backup these days. People get hit, find giant hole in their disaster recovery plan, and then get on with solid, scheduled offsite backups.

Re: VFP tables likely victims for ransomware?
Sql Server raw data is safe because the API had an active lock on all the files. Even the .bin files that make up the service. SQL Express should do the same thing.
