RE: Strtran question

Yup, had this one bite me in the bum.  Quite interesting to track down
when you don't know about this behavior.

RE: Suggestion for the mailing list

[Rodney Dixon]

I would second that.  There are lots of times I get several responses to
a thread (and those don't come in any particular order) before I even
get the original question.

Inno Setup question

[Rodney Dixon]

I have an application that has been around quite a while so I used the
install builder that shipped with Visual Foxpro.  I think it was VFP 6.
I need to upgrade the application and I'm using Inno Setup for program
installation now.  Because of some issues I have had with uninstalling
an application that has been installed to the same directory using the
old Foxpro installer and Inno Setup, I'm wondering if anyone knows if
Inno can uninstall an app before it does its install.

RE: Inno Setup question

[Rodney Dixon]

I'm very new to Inno so I haven't used Scripts yet.  I compile this into
my install script and I get Unknown identifier OldExe.  Is OldExe a
variable that holds the path to the old executable?

I have another question.  My current package uses VFP9, if I apply SP1
and rebuild will the script handle upgrading any installations that have
RTM or are there flags to set to make sure that runtime stuff gets
upgraded too?

Rodney

Why do you do the shl (which I assume is shift left operation)?

Ah, so if I'm say that anything less than version 4.0 fails the Inno
upgradeable test I should do (4 shl 16)

RE: [NF] Symantec Antivirus Corporate

[Rodney Dixon]

I have to second this one.  We were running 8, and were happy.  Upgraded
to 9 and things started to slow down, and 10 was the nail in the coffin.

RE: [NF] Home Wireless router suggestions

[Rodney Dixon]

That is so strange.  I've had a Linksys WRT54G for 1 or 2 years and have
never had a problem.  I'm even running the factory firmware (upgraded to
the latest of course).  Goes to show that YMMV is a very true statement.

RE: [NF] You RAM is a document?

[Rodney Dixon]

I think judges should have some basic knowledge of what they are ruling
on so he can make an intelligent/reasonable ruling.  This ruling, if I
understood correctly, hinges on the fact that TorrentSpy doesn't log
users.  It would seem since they are being sued, and there is the issue
of discovery why didn't the judge order them to turn on their logs
instead?  If she had any basic idea of how RAM really works I don't see
how she would have ruled the way she did.  I know people that still
don't know the difference between RAM and diskspace (That other memory
:)).  Once I've explained the difference, they have a better
understanding of why some things are saved and others are not if their
computer locks up or reboots.

It just seems wrong that any business should have to dump money into a
process that is being used so that they can incriminate themselves.
It's one thing to subpoena documents that already exists, it's quite
another to have to create the incriminating evidence for the one suing
you.

RE: [NF] Unblocking an attachment in Outlook

[Rodney Dixon]

I had this issue also.  Found out there is a registry key you can set to 
override the behavior.  Here is some information about it.:


Outlook may block some MS Access file types: .mdb, .mda, .mde, .adp, .ade. You 
can use a Registry key to open access to blocked attachments. Run "regedit" to 
edit the Registry and open the following folder:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\11.0\Outlook\Security
Under the key, add a new string value:
Level1Remove
The value should be a semicolon-delimited list of file extensions to unblock. 
For example,
mdb;mda;mde

Note: Be sure to make a backup before editing the Registry. If you are not 
comfortable editing the Registry, ask your departmental IT staff for help or 
contact the ITS PhoneDesk for assistance.

RE: Integrated Source Control and a Project Hook

[Rodney Dixon]

I don't know if this has anything to do with your issue, but I do know
that Source Safe (SS) flags files as read-only when they are checked in.
This causes problems with VFP because it updates something in class
libraries.  I had SS leave the read-only flag alone during check
in/check out and that solved some of my problems.  It could be a place
to start.

No.  What MS is saying is that if you have two legal copies of Vista,

RE: [NF] Sticking with Office 2003 is a better choice than Office 2007

[Rodney Dixon]

After upgrading my work version of Office from 2003 to 2007 I would have
to agree.  The ribbon concept actually isn't that bad ONCE YOU GET USED
TO IT.  That is my biggest gripe right there.  Since I've used Office
since the 97 version, I knew where things were and now it's all
buggered.  I will never understand why they forced you to learn the new
interface.  At least with IE7, you can tap the Alt key and get the old
menus to show up.  That would have been nice in 2007.

RE: Advice for synchronizing server and laptop folders

I couldn't seem to find it specifically mentioned, but is there a

Using Inno Setup to deploy VFP runtimes

[Rodney Dixon]

I'm a bad programmer, and I haven't updated any of the runtimes for VFP
9 for an app.  I have an Inno Setup installer that just does the
runtime.  If I patch my environment and rebuild the setup, will that be
good enough to get the users of the app up to date?

Rodney

RE: Using Inno Setup to deploy VFP runtimes

[Rodney Dixon]

I told you I'm a baaad programmer, I'm not even running SP1.  This
application hasn't had to have any changes in years, and since we aren't
doing any new development in VFP things kinda slipped.  So I'm looking
at applying the latest SP to my development environment, and just to be
safe I'll go ahead and rebuild the application to.  So if I send out the
Inno Setup exe after all this, everything should get patched?

RE: [NF] Virtual box

[Rodney Dixon]

> 
[Rodney] You are running Windows, even though it is being virtualized by
VirtualBox, therefore the same requirements/recommendations are still in
effect.  That being said I would run with at least 256mb but 512mb would
be better.  Not knowing what you are going to be installing, I couldn't
say quite as much about hard drive space.  I can say 2gb is probably not
enough.  If you were going to setup this up on real hardware how much
disk space would you allocate?

> 2. Is Winders actually on the hard drive physically, or will it go
away
> if I reboot or close Virtual Box?
[Rodney] Windows is actually on the physical hard drive.  It is in a
file, VirtualBox presents the virtualized environment as hard drive, but
it is just a file to the host machine

> 3. Can I install the (downloaded) software I want to run from my hard
> drive or do I have to burn a CD?
[Rodney] You can get software installed in several ways.  
1.  Since networking the VM is supported, you can just re-download the
software while in the virtual machine.  
2.  You can go through the VirtualBox documentation and read up on
folder sharing and go that route.  
3.  You can burn it to a CD and then use the CD in the virtual
environment.
4.  You can turn it into an ISO and set the virtual CD drive to point to
the ISO.

RE: [NF] Winders 2K in Virtual Box over Ubuntu 9.04

[Rodney Dixon]

VirtualBox Guest Additions are a function of VirtualBox (VB), not
windows.  I run VB at home and I'm at work at the moment, so I can't
tell you exactly what to do, but there should be a menu option that says
something along the lines of installing guest additions.  While the VM
is running if you select that option it mounts an ISO a CD in the VM.
If autoplay is on, the install should just start.  You should be able to
find more details in the help.

Regards
Rodney

[Rodney] No, the VM has to be running to do it, and it will be under one
of the menu options on the running VM window.  When I get home tonight
I'll look.

RE: [NF] M$ banned from selling Word inthe USA?

[Rodney Dixon]

I find the whole thing kind of funny since I saw a blurb just this week
about MS getting a patent on "Word-processing document stored in a
single XML file that may be manipulated by applications that understand
XML"  

I can't find the original link I read, but here is another one that
talks about it.

RE: [NF] Win7 annoyances, seem a little petty to me.

[Rodney Dixon]

I very rarely do anything on a Mac, but one of the things that I like
about a Mac is that information about the file type is actually in the
file.  The file doesn't have to have an extension for the OS to know how
to handle it.

RE: [NF] outlook and spam

[Rodney Dixon]

This was one of my biggest gripes of 2003.  Unfortunately I never found
a way around it.  They seemed to have addressed it in 2007 though.  It
still seems kind of crappy to make people upgrade to 2007 in order to
get this functionality.

RE: [NF] Experience with free version of VMware?

[Rodney Dixon]

Probably the biggest difference between VMWare Server and Workstation is
that you can have Server automatically startup virtual sessions when
your host machine boots up.  There are some other little differences
between WS and Server, but for most people not anything to worry about.

BTW you don't need two machines to run server.

RE: MSDN Path to Product Key?

[Rodney Dixon]

1.  Go to http://msdn.microsoft.com

2.  There should be a link almost at the top on the right hand side
named Manage My Subscriptions, click on this.  Do you Passport stuff if
necessary.

3.  You should be on the MSDN Subscription Management page.  The first
link should be Subscriber Downloads and Product Keys.

I can't go any farther than that because it seems that my employer has
let my subscription expire.  But, that should get you close enough to
where you can view/request the needed installation keys.

RE: MSDN Path to Product Key?

[Rodney Dixon]

I ran into that same problem when I went from a subscription that was
individually purchased to one that was on a volume license.  It took
several attempts to get it associated correctly with my Passport.  I
just love the way MS makes things "simple"

[OT]I'm not liking Pinnacle

[Rodney Dixon]

I haven't had a relationship with then for years, and now all of a
sudden I'm starting to get spam from companies that says:

You have been selected to receive this e-mail because you indicated you
wanted to receive information and special offers from other companies
when you provided your email address to: Pinnacle Publishing

 

I never say that, g.  I emailed them to tell them to take me off of
their spam list.  I guess I'll see what happens.

RE: [NF] Medical insurance

[Rodney Dixon]

How do the charges work?  I'm insured through my employer, so I get an
EOB (Explanation of Benefits) printout after every visit.  I notice that
there is a significant discount right of the top.  For example, the
charge for some items might be $1000 but my "in-network" discount might
bring it down to $600.  Do you get the advantage of the "discounted"
rate, or do you get to pay the bloated (let me stick it to the uninsured
people to offset the sticking I get from the insurance company) fee.

TFS is pretty bad, although it got a lot better with the last two versions.
The most convincing reason to use it is that it integrates great into Visual

Let's say I have a table, and there are a number of candidate records that I 
could potentially include in a particular process, then flag them as processed 
so they do not get included again. 

However, due to constraints I can only take a subset of those candidate records 
at a time.

Using a SQL-Select, how would I retrieve a random subset of the records?

If I'm reading the page correctly, the statistics come from their logs.  I 
would venture to guess that their audience is more on the technical end of the

Interesting video clip about the Internet

[Rodney Dixon]

This link was in an email someone from upper management sent to our whole

mentioning.
http://smartblogs.com/leadership/2011/05/05/live-from-gc2011-nicholas-carr-on-how-the-internet-is-hurting-innovation/

I have to say for myself, that after watching this and evaluating my thought 
processes I can see this happening to me.

RE: [NF] Think that Apple shareholders are happy?

[Rodney Dixon]

What's the visitor policy?  My brother lives in San Antonio, and I would love 
to see the place if I can get out there again.
