AW: AW: Check my wording on this and tell me if I'm right
Hi Mike, >> I'm confused? Yes you are. :) First: The MS information. Use the horizontal slider bar at the bottom of the table listing to scroll to the left. The first column lists the Keys. The third column is the "Parent", the folder where those keys are. (Those tables are standardized format at MS documentation, and it could well be that several registry keys are in different places, thus the third column would then show different valus. In our case they are all at the same tree-node) Second: If those keys aren't present, then their internal default is used. But if they are present, then they take precedence over the defaults. Thus just add those keys and life is good. Or use the mentioned installer to see those Keys and their Values to magically show up. The installer just adds those three keys, and has the benefit to do a simple uninstall (thus reverting them back), if you're later on don't deed those settings anymore (because you changed to a ODBC/OLEDB dataprovider) wOOdy -Ursprüngliche Nachricht- Von: ProFox [mailto:profox-boun...@leafe.com] Im Auftrag von mbsoftwaresoluti...@mbsoftwaresolutions.com Gesendet: Freitag, 8.

[NF] Client's workstation struggling (performance-wise)
(Sorry...forgot the [NF] subject prefix) We're hooking her up with a new machine next week, but I was curious because her current/old pc is an upgrade from something to Windows 10 Pro, and it stayed 32-bit, with 4GB of RAM, non-SSD hard drive. https://www.screencast.com/t/L5kB9hijhadn According to M$, she's got more than enough: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/windows-10-specifications Anyhoo...was just curious. Like I said, she's getting a new machine next week. Here's what she's getting: Fanless Mini PCs Intel NUC NUC7i3BNK Mini PC/HTPC - Intel Dual-Core i3-7100U 2.4GHz - 8GB DDR4 - 256GB SSD M.2 (faster than SATA SSD) - Wifi, Bluetooth - 4k Support, Dual Monitor Capable (HDMI & Mini DisplayPort 1.2) - Windows 10 Professional - 1x USB 3.1 Type-C, 4x USB 3.0 - 1x Headphone/Microphone Combo Jack We've used many styles of fanless Mini-PCs before. Here are the advantages I see: - Small - Less shipping - No fans (fans collect dust, bearings go bad) - M.2 PCIe 3.0 x4 storage is faster that SATA SSD - No rotational drive - Less heat - Less power consumption - External power supply can be replaced by the end user, by simply plugging in a new one, without having to disassemle the PC, plug in hard drives, motherboard, fans, etc... I can't wait to see how much better it is. ___ 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/4219827eaec50876e5598e58e3c6e...@mbsoftwaresolutions.com ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.

[NF] Restart now or later?
Windows is shipping new updates early this month. In the latest "Windows 10 Fall Creators Edition Update" version, they now have a pretty panel and call them "Feature Updates" rather than bug fixes, but you know what that means. Info on the Windows Security Site [1] seems to indicate it's a fix for many of their security products. That, combined with the week-early date, make me suspect something's in the wild they don't want people to catch. Word to the wise. "Working on updates 0% Don't turn off your machine.

On 2017-12-06 14:14, Jürgen Wondzinski wrote: "SingleThreaded" has nothing to do with running multiple instances on the same box. It just means that each instance does use only one main processor-command-pipe. Which isn't even the case with VFP9, which technically uses at least 8 threads already. (see taskmanager/details and add column "Threads") Each VFP instance is completely isolated from another VFP instance, Windows takes care of separating the memory and address-spaces for each task. You can't just change a memory variable and hope that it would get picked up by another VFP session. On a higher level, "SingleThreaded" is mostly used as in "this software can only do one job at a time", whereas "multithreaded" often get used as in "does multiple tasks parallel" In your case I suspect a deadlock at the FoxUser.dbf, which is used by both instances at the same time, since both use the same config.fpw and settings.

RE: Issue with _cliptext
Funnily enough we also had an issue with the clipboard earlier in the week when using DataToClip(). When using date fields or datetime fields in the cursor, running DataToCLip(, ) whether Option is set to 1 or 3 (Space delimited or tab delimited) and then pasting the clipboard into Excel, dates really do screw up as some dates go in British style DD/MM/YY and other dates get pasted in the American format MM/DD/YY regardless of the display format selected. Solution: In the cursor you are copying into the clipboard, send " "+dtoc() as opposed to the datefield. Note that just using dtoc() produces exactly the same results as sending a date field. All date fields then go into the spreadsheet as proper "Date" values and are displayed correctly. Just a heads up in case anyone else is pasting into Excel.
