RE: OS(3) number result for Windows 11

If you start a Command Prompt in Windows, it usually tells you what the

This is the same version information that VFP Advanced is returning.

I prefer the in person conferences. This year the conference is earlier than

I usually have not been able to get that code to run the first time. Especially 
if it contains a subclass that isn't referenced.

Posting that code here could help, it could also distract from the actual 
problem.

When you need to share forms and class libraries, sharing sample code in a 
public source control system like a github repository may be the easiest.

Thanks Tracy - very helpful as usual!
Essentially to make my code work you added the objects to the container and
then configured them instead of trying to configure them before adding them
to the container.  Your solution is so much more elegant!

Now some additional questions:

Is it essential to have a separate method to Add Controls or can it be done
in the Init method? (The separate method in the original code was added to
try to eliminate the error.)

Should I be able to run code that I copy from the View Code button in Class

RE: Class code issue

[Tracy Pearson]

Hi Joe,

VFP isn't able to add an existing object to the form to be displayed. 
It instantiates an object on the form with the AddObject or NewObject
commands.
When you add an object this way it will not display until you set the
Visible property.

I have two examples below.

Here is how that code could be written:
* Create a blank form
loMyForm = CREATEOBJECT("Form")

MESSAGEBOX("Form created successfully")


* Add the spotpick1 to the form
loMyForm.AddObject("SpotPick1", "spotpick1")
loMyForm.SpotPick1.Visible = .T.

* Show the form, in a Modal state
loMyForm.Show(1)

RETURN

DEFINE CLASS spotpick1 AS container
WIDTH = 100

PROCEDURE Init
* Add your custom logic here (e.g., create controls, set
properties)
THIS.AddControls()
ENDPROC

PROCEDURE AddControls
* Add a textbox to the container
THIS.AddObject("Textbox1", "TextBox")  
THIS.Textbox1.Value = "Hello from TextBox 1"
THIS.TextBox1.Visible = .T.
* Add a second textbox to the container
THIS.AddObject("Textbox2", "TextBox")  
THIS.Textbox2.Value = "Hello from TextBox 2"
THIS.TextBox2.Visible = .T.
THIS.Textbox2.Top = 30
ENDPROC
ENDDEFINE

Here is an example of defining the classes in a prg and using it in a form
class two ways

* Create class form
loMyForm = CREATEOBJECT("FormClass")

* Show the form
loMyForm.Show()

RETURN

* Define the customized container
DEFINE CLASS spotpick1 AS container
WIDTH = 200
ADD OBJECT Textbox1 as TextBox WITH Value = "Hello from TextBox 1",
Width = 200
ADD OBJECT Textbox2 as TextBox WITH Value = "Hello from TextBox 2",
Width = 200, Top = 30

ENDDEFINE


* define the customized form
DEFINE CLASS formclass as Form
   WindowType = 1
   
   ADD OBJECT spotpick1 as spotpick1
   
   PROCEDURE init
  This.AddSecondContainer()
   ENDPROC 
   
   PROCEDURE AddSecondContainer
  This.AddObject("spotpick2", "spotpick1")
  This.spotpick2.top = 100
  This.spotpick2.visible = .T.
   ENDPROC 
ENDDEFINE

HTH,
Tracy

I am developed a custom class based on a container that worked properly
when it was on a form but when I converted it to a class I have issues I
can't resolve.  I have only one installation of VFP and sometimes I wonder
if it might be corrupt.

In order to avoid any corruption of the visual tools I have attempted to
come up with a small .prg program that creates a form, defines a custom
class in code, and puts an instance of the class on the form.
,The following code was written by Microsoft's CoPilot but the author has
not been able to make it work!
The problem seems to be that the definition code needs to reference the
class before it is instantiated.

* Create a blank form
loMyForm = CREATEOBJECT("Form")

MESSAGEBOX("Form created successfully")

* Create an instance of your spotpick1 class
loSpotPick1 = CREATEOBJECT("spotpick1")

MESSAGEBOX("Class created successfully")

* Add the spotpick1 to the form
loMyForm.AddObject("SpotPick1", loSpotPick1)

* Show the form
loMyForm.Show()

RETURN

DEFINE CLASS spotpick1 AS container

I am looking for a way to have a combo box display its dropdown
programmatically. I want to do this to make it obvious that the user needs
to make a choice.  I have read that 'thisform.combobox.dropdown()' should
do the trick but the form comes up with the proper information in the
dropdown which can only be seen after clicking the control.

Another less important feature would be a way to control the position of
the list of choices when the dropdown is accessed.

Any help will be appreciated,

RE: Combobox followup

[Tracy Pearson]

Your function should return the object it created on the form. 
You will use that return value to set properties on.
You can use the AMembers() function to see all the available properties and 
methods available. I will say my experience with COM objects the properties do 
not show unless you have already accessed them. 

Here is something I had written some time ago testing pageframes in pageframes.
I define the form adding a pageframe during the design. 
In the forms init, I add the second pageframe and an editbox to the pageframe.
Then I add a combobox through a function to the first pageframe

Hope this gives you some ideas and directions.

Thanks guys!  Now I can name and place Combos at will.

The next thing I would like to do is to update the ComboBox properties from
the program calling the creation procedure.
My first attempt was This,oComboBox1.rowsourcetype = '1 (value)' but it
fails (This can only be used within a method)

i also wish for a way to see all the properties of the created object.  I
have read that some can only be accessed if a custom class has been defined
but I don't understand why that would be the case or how to figure out what
should be accessible.

Any help would be appreciated,

RE: VFP 8, ODBC connection to Azure SQL Server Pausing

[Tracy Pearson]

Hi Philip,

I don't use the SQL connection ability in VFP often.
I do remember it is possible to set the DispLogin on the VFP level using a 0
for the Connection parameter.
I'm sure the ConnectTimeOut can be set that way as well.

Tracy

Hi Tracy,
The SQLSETPROP() works once there is a connection I believe.
SQLSTRINGCONNECT() also returns a negative 1 however, the ODBC Login screen
pops up before that return.
I'm trying to figure out a way to hide/stop that annoying ODBC SQL Login
prompt. :-)

I think I'm going to see if the ConnectTimeOut can be added in the
connection string.

Thank you,

I haven't worked with Azure SQL. 

You could set some setting with SQLSETPROP() Function
Look at ConnectTimeOut and DispLogin settings. 

The SQLConnect function returns a -1 when the connection isn't created.

Subject: VFP 8, ODBC connection to Azure SQL Server Pausing

Hello,

I have been having issues with MS Azure SQL Server going to a "pause state"
at night after no activity.
Then when I try to connect with :

lnConnection = SQLSTRINGCONNECT(lcConnString,.T.)


Because the Azure SQL Server is paused, the SQLSTRINGCONNECT() times out and
prompts with the ODBC failed to connect and SQL Server login prompt.

This is annoying when I don't want that to pop up because the end user will
not know what to do.
All the help online just says an Azure SQL Server resumes once an attempt to
connect is made...

Does anyone have any experience with this?

Is it a timeout issue that we can set in our connection string?
Is there a setting on the Azure SQL server we need to set to not allow it to
pause?

Thanks for any guidance,

RE: ODBC / VFPA / 64 Bit

A 64-bit application requires a 64-bit ODBC driver to connect to the data.

RE: List box issues

[Tracy Pearson]

Yes.

There are a couple of points to add to that.
- The Event should call a method. My experience has shown switching forms that 
are configured as private data sessions may not be in the right memory space in 
some event code. However, that problem appears to go away when the event calls 
a method. 
An explanation of not being in the right memory space is the event code 
references a table in the forms data session or object on the form, VFP throws 
an error that it wasn't found. When the event calls a method on the control or 
the form it is contained in, that has not happened that I have seen. Though, I 
won't guarantee it will not happen. When the event tries to call a method on a 
hierarchy like `This.Parent.AnotherObject`, I have seen it error.
- How you want the user to experience the system may change which event you 
want to use. 
The Got Focus and Lost Focus events are a good place for code that changes 
the background of the current item to help the user know what control has 
focus. 
The Valid event can be used to validate the data in the control and 
returning .F. from the event prevents the control from losing focus. (textbox 
validations)
- There a many events, most of them I don't use.

RE: List box issues

[Tracy Pearson]

The Interactive Change event happens when the user makes a selection change via 
arrow keys or mouse click.
The Lost Focus event happens when the user moves to another control.

Using the Interactive Change event to update other controls is better user 
experience.

Thanks to Fletcher for the cursor clue I am closer to what I want.

I have 2 files:
  Spaces with fields space_id and  descript
  Units with fields : unit_id, space_id, and descript

I have a form with a list box for each
 the Spaces list box has the row source set  to 6 (Fields) of Spaces
 the Units list box has the Row Source type set to 3  (SQL Statement)
 and the Row Source to:
  select Spaces.Descript from Spaces  where Units.space_id =
Spaces.space_id int cursor xxx

The Spaces listbox lost focus event has the following code:
  thisform.list2.requery
  this form.list2.refresh

For some reason the Units list box does not display updated data before I
click on another box.  Actually clicking any other buttom causes the box to
update.

What am I missing now?

Thanks in advance.

Hello all,

Is it possible to hide hidden windows in the System _MSM_WINDO menu?

Class definition is cyclical error

[Tracy Pearson]

I have a base class library. In it I have a ccontainer class that is (no
surprise here) based on the vfp container.

I have a test class library (testlibrary) that I have subsclassed ccontainer
(testcon) and added a ccontainer (innerContainer) in. Then added another
container (innerInnerContainer).

When I add the testlibrary to the Form Controls Toolbar and attempt to add
the testcon class to a form I get the following:

Error loading file - record number 21.  innerInnerContainer .  Parent : Cannot add INNERINNERCONTAINER.  Class definition is
cyclical

If you drag the control from the Project Explorer (Project Manager) the
error appears during runtime.

In all the time I have been building apps, I'm not sure I have ever seen
this happen. 
It was originally seen as a problem when my coworker was building a new
class that gets loaded dynamically.
He was building a UI that changes what is visible depending on what options
are set. A pageframe changes pages depending what is selected. His is
container with a pageframe and another pageframe on page2.

Error loading file - record number 25.  InnerPageFrame .  Parent : Cannot add INNERPAGEFRAME.  Class definition is cyclical



Is there a way around this?

Thank you,
Tracy

Re: Programatically placing text boxes on a form

The textbox needs to be added with a method on the form.

thisform.addobject( "TextBox" + LTRIM(STR(i)) + LTRIM(STR(j)), "textbox")

oTextbox = evaluate( "TextBox" + LTRIM(STR(i)) + LTRIM(STR(j)))

RE: Passing parameters to an external program run from fox

[Tracy Pearson]

Hi Joe,

If you don't mind a command window opening you can use the ! or RUN.
!c:\temp\params.cmd def abc

I wrote a cmd file that has the following
echo %1, %2
pause

I have these procedures I have used as well
Procedure StartExplorer1
   *-- Start a Windows Explorer window in the current path
   Local oShell As wScript.Shell
   oShell = Createobject("wScript.Shell")
   *-- If the folder list is prefered use "Explorer /e,"
*   oShell.Run("Explorer " + Fullpath(""))
   oShell.Exec("Explorer " + Fullpath(""))
   Release oShell
ENDPROC

PROCEDURE StartExplorer
   DECLARE INTEGER ShellExecute IN Shell32.DLL ;
  INTEGER nWinHandle, ;
  STRING  cOperation, ;
  STRING  cFileName,  ;
  STRING  cParameters, ;
  STRING  cDirectory,  ;
  INTEGER nShowWindow
   LOCAL lcExec, lnRet
   lcExec = ADDBS(GETENV("windir")) + "system32\explorer.exe"
   lnRet = ShellExecute(_Screen.HWnd, "open", SYS(5)+SYS(2003), "",

   *MESSAGEBOX(lcExec + CHR(13) + TRANSFORM(lnRet))

Subject: Passing parameters to an external program run from fox

I'm pretty sure I have done this before but now I can't figure out the
syntax to make this happen.  I finally substituted a batch file to display
the parameters passed in and to pause to allow reading time.  The batch
file reports parameters passed in from the command linre but none from VFP.

Can someone help me out?

Thanks in advance,

Joe

RE: Error instantiating class when opening a form

I think I have done this at one time by:
Place the ocx in a class of your own.
Add the class during the Init wrapped in a Try/Catch.

It adds an extra level to the hierarchy.

Subject: Re: Error instantiating class when opening a form

 Timely question! I just had this happen to a client last Thursday. App has
been working for years, but they called to say it suddenly doesn't work
with a "Cannot load class" type of error.

After some troubleshooting we determined the issue was their MSP's security
software determined that RichTxt32.ocx was malicious and blocked it. It
would have been nice if the app could catch that particular error and load
the form without those controls present rather that fail altogether. It may
cause deleterious side effects though. I may give this some thought...

RE: Report with 2 Columns, Left to Right and Groups

[Tracy Pearson]

Digging around I found this note in the VFP 9 SP2 help file:
How to: Define Columns in Reports

In Visual FoxPro 9.0, setting label-style print order has some
additional impact on reports. When you use this option to make columns flow
from left to right, group and detail header and footer bands extend across
the page, so they can provide true header information for the entire row.
The detail band starts one row down from any header bands you design in the
layout. In earlier versions, **Column print order** did not change the
behavior of group header and footer bands, so the first detail item printed
adjacent to the innermost group header on the same row.

The logic to display only specific data that is gathered in variables in the
report should be printed in a group footer. 
The group footer no longer moves from column to column. 

Setting the "Associated header and footer bands" in the Detail Band
Properties results in the detail band never going to the right columns. 

May this help someone in the future.

Subject: Report with 2 Columns, Left to Right and Groups

Hello everyone,
I don't work with the VFP reports very often.
My coworker brought up a problem he has found when building a custom report
for a customer.

Using a single flat table and building a report with multiple columns and
have it go left to right the details properly go left to right.

Once a grouping is added to the report, everything prints in the left column
only.  Switch the report to be Top to Bottom and both columns are used. 

For what is in this report, it would be better to have this left to right. 
Custom programming to group things before going to the report is not an
option. 

Creating a similar report in the IDE, not the runtime, does not exhibit this
behavior.

Does anyone have an idea on how to get the report to behave?

We have tried this in  VFP 9 SP 2 HF 3

Thank you,
Tracy

Re: Dymo Twin Turbo

[Tracy Pearson]

I had used the Dymo ActiveX to switch which side the job needed to print to.
I printed everything through the ActiveX. 
I don't know if the latest software ships the ActiveX control.
I know the .NET library they have available doesn't work in .NET 6. That and 
the expensive 550 printers and the requirements to use their labels with it got 
me to abandon supporting the Dymo twin printers.

There might be something like an old Epson dot matrix type code that switches 
sides. I didn't research that. Without knowing the printer has two paper feeds. 
Time was not on my side.

RE: dreaming of vfp and vscode integration

[Tracy Pearson]

There are two ways to make that happen from what I recall.
You can automate VFP with COM.

You can use a config.fpw and launch VFP with the -C "path\config.fpw" 
The config.fpw needs to have a COMMAND for what you want to do.
It could be the COMPILE command or a PRG you want to run.

I have used both, but prefer the config.fpw method.

Subject: dreaming of vfp and vscode integration

This morning I've been doing some refactoring (I use that term loosely) and
listening to some guys talk in one of the rooms at Virtual Fox Fest. I'm
splitting long lines and cleaning up comments, etc in vscode then switching
over to VFP (Version 6 still I am ashamed to say) and compiling the prg to
make sure I'm not getting any errors. I was thinking it would be convenient
if I could make VFP compile the file I'm working on when I save it and then
maybe have something look for ERR files to show up and send me a
notification if it does. Does anyone have any experience doing something
like this? I'd be willing to put some time into the tooling to do this.
Seems like it is possible. I do realize I'd get a little more syntax
checking with VFP6 and a lot more with VFP9, but I am more used to the text
manipulation in vscode. Maybe I am just dreaming!

Breakpoint, click Resume, nothing happens

[Tracy Pearson]

I haven't seen before.

I start my debug session with a config-code.fpw.
screen=off
Resource=off
Safety=off
Title=KIOSK11-CODE
Command=Do ..\pckiosk11.resource\StartUp-Code.prg

The StartUp-Code sets a few extra things, opens the debug window and starts
the code
DEBUG 

SET ASSERTS ON 
SET PATH TO 
SET CENTURY ON 

DO checkin.prg  
ON SHUTDOWN
QUIT

I have a "SET STEP ON" in my code to step through a bit of code.
Well, I am unable to step through the code. Resume fails as well.
The Cancel button works. When I close the Debugger the _Screen appears.
Oh, this is an app that the ShowWindow is set to 2 - As Top-Level Form.

Once the Screen appears, I need to type ON SHUTDOWN in the Command window to
be able to quit.

As I typed all this out. I continued to think of things I should try.

So I added a _Screen.Show() just before the DEBUG and I'm able to Resume and
stop through my code now.

Hope this helps someone in the future.

Have fun, see you at Virtual Fox Fest 2022 soon!
Tracy

VFPa oddness

[Tracy Pearson]

Here's the scenario
I use the third party Crystal Reports 8.5 in my software. 
Ver 12 of our software works on Server 2019 without a problem.
Ver 14 of our software does not.
When printing or exporting a report that can be viewed it is looking for
files that are installed and hardcoded by Crystal  Reports to be in the
C:\Windows\Crystal folder.
In VFP9 this works.
In VFPA this is actually looking for these files in
C:\Users\\WINDOWS\Crystal.
The server has RDS installed and both The VFP9 and VFPA versions of our
software was installed the same way.
(RDS - Remote Desktop Services {the new Terminal Services})

Is this a Roaming profile issue (though their IT person states this isn't a
Roaming profile)?
Is there another thought I can research? 
I'm going to get my IT person to setup a private area for us to test this
and hopefully reproduce the problem.


Any (and all sarcastic and/or funny) comments welcome. It's been a little
quiet here lately.

Thank you,
Tracy

RE: visual foxpro advanced table size limits

Jeff,

In the version you can download without a subscription you need to enable
large files sizes in the 64-bit version

Subject: visual foxpro advanced table size limits

I recently ran across Ajit Abraham's github repo at
https://github.com/Ajitweb/vfp10LargeTables where he guides you through
importing a large dataset from imdb to show Visual Foxpro Advanced breaking
the 2GB table size limit. I already had the 32bit version of Visual Foxpro
Advanced installed so I tried this exercise with it and still got the table
size large error that you'd get with VFP9. So I downloaded the 64bit
version and installed and tried that with the same result. I am guessing
that I am missing something simple or maybe the 32bit version I had on my
laptop was too old and is causing a conflict of some kind? Anybody else
seen this behaviour and know what I need to change? I am not trying to do
this in production I was just curious and really wanted to see it for
myself. Thanks!

RE: can visual foxpro create a table inside a sql statement?

[Tracy Pearson]

It's a pain to accomplish, and would probably be faster just to create the
cursor in code

CREATE CURSOR tempCursor (selected l)
INSERT INTO tempCursor VALUES (.T.)

SELECT "short" as desc, 0 as min, 60 as max FROM tempCursor ;
union SELECT "medium" as desc, 60 as min, 120 as max FROM tempCursor ;
union SELECT "long" as desc, 120 as min, 1000 as max FROM tempCursor
INTO CURSOR testing

SELECT testing
BROWSE

In this scenario the tempCursor needs to exist and have only 1 record in it
for the speed of the Unions to be fast.
Each of those select statements will create a result with the number of
records in tempCursor. 
Sure, you could use and Order By clause and Top 1 to get just one result,
but the Order By could slow it down.

I'm with Mike, just don't do it.

Subject: can visual foxpro create a table inside a sql statement?

I've been watching a video tutorial called "Mastery with SQL" that uses
Postgres for the back end. At one point while talking about subqueries the
instructor runs the following SQL query:

SELECT * FROM (values ('short', 0, 60), ('medium', 60, 120), ('long', 120,
1)) as c("desc", "min", "max");

This query more or less creates a table and then selects everything out of
it. Not very useful on its own but could be handy when joined up to a real
table. I get a syntax error running this in Visual Foxpro 9 so I was
wondering if the syntax can be changed so that it will work, or is this
type of query even possible with Visual Foxpro? I think it could be done
with a create cursor statement ahead of the query but I'm just curious if
it can be done with a one-liner. FYI the query as-is works in Postgres but
not VFP, Sqlite, or Mysql (at least the versions I have on my machine).

RE: VFP to SharePoint Spreadsheet Dashboard

[Tracy Pearson]

It was a long time ago I heard a talk about SharePoint. Does the Spreadsheet
basically use an Access database, or an MSSql server for the backend data?
Wouldn't you just be updating that table and the SharePoint site will take
care of the rest?

I haven't done this myself, I only remember bits of the talk and none of the
front end implementation.

Subject: VFP to SharePoint Spreadsheet Dashboard


Hi All,

The company I work for is eventually going to a new ERP but until that time
I still must maintain some VFP (version 6 and 9) apps.  I have a trailer
assigning project that will allow people to scan orders to a trailer.  The
orders are then scanned when they begin loading and when they finish
loading.  After the loading, a query is run to determine if all the orders
for that trailer is complete.  I had thought to just email the information,
but the users are wanting a live dashboard configured as a SharePoint
Spreadsheet where everybody in the company can see it.  The shipping tower
would like to mark when an order has been picked and delivered.  I've never
done any development accessing SharePoint with VFP so I thought I would ask
how you would display a dashboard that would refresh every 5 minutes or so
but still allow certain fields to be marked as complete on the spreadsheet.
I would assume the program would be setup as scheduled task running every 5
minutes to update the spreads
 heet.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks!

RE: Problem replacing/deleting temporary picture file

[Tracy Pearson]

Hi Paul,

I have a couple of places that have an BMP loaded in the Image control on a
form. The user can change the picture in a popup modal form. The original
image is overwritten on disk with code in the modal. When the modal closes,
the image is refreshed on the original form.

I'm curious if the GDIPlusX method is leaving the control open with a file
handle to the image. 

HTH,

Hi all

 

I have an image control whose Picture property is a temporary BMP (say
Temp1.BMP).  I am trying to redisplay the image control with a new Picture
property of Temp2.BMP or with a modified Temp1.BMP

 

Using GDIPlusX, I am creating the BMPs with the BitMap.Save method.  Once I
have used Temp1.BMP as the picture and later trying to use BitMap.Save again
to overwrite Temp1.BMP, the changes are not saved (no error though)

 

So I used BitMap.Save to create Temp2.BMP, set Temp2.BMP as the picture
(which worked fine) and then tried to delete Temp1.BMP.  Again this failed
(file in use or similar).

 

I tried Clear Resource Temp1.BMP before Erase Temp1.BMP but that didn't work
either.

 

Any suggestions would be welcome.

 

Many thanks

 

Paul Newton

Ah Cool - so that's how Tracy did it! I do remember someone posted about

But, now I'm curious. Is the problem related to my email reader - or it 
really is related to how Mike transmitted the message? Does it occur 
because someone tried to transmit a message to the forum here, and it 
included some HTML formatting? As I know this forum does Not support

RE: Using gmail to send emails from your VFP apps -- deadline approaching for shutoff

[Tracy Pearson]

I have one of those:

I needed to implement this for users some time ago. The Chilkat control has 
support for this.
If you need to update your old legacy apps to continue sending those emails.
Or you might need to setup an online server that has an SMTP server in a way 
that only a specific email will be forwarded and any attempt to use it is just 
dropped. 

Workflow idea is you have a guid email address that you use to send an email to 
another email on the same server. Then that forwards emails to you only if it 
was sent from that email address. 
The email account that sends you an email should have a very complicated 
password, or no access to be connected from outside.
The guid email address should not be configured to send emails to other 
accounts. 
That’s all complicated and probably not worth the resources. 
Updating the old legacy apps to use modern security for emailing is an option.

If you were thinking of creating an email server solution. Maybe you just need 
to host an API that accepts the error report and it can email you. 

Now that I typed all this stuff. I would opt for the API.

Tracy

Here's what the alien text said:

got this notice from google today:


  Less secure apps & your Google Account

To help keep your account secure, starting*May 30, 2022*, ​​Google will 
no longer support the use of third-party apps or devices which ask you 
to sign in to your Google Account using only your username and password.

Please note this deadline does not apply to Google Workspace or Google 
Cloud Identity customers. The enforcement date for these customers will 
be announced on the Workspace blog at a later date.

For more information, please continue reading.

*Special Note on Apple Device Sign-Ins.*Users who have not recently 
signed into their Google Account using only username and password will 
be able to only make new sign in attempts using the Google account type 
starting from*February 28, 2022*. Existing users may continue to sign 
into their Google Account using their username and password until*May 
30, 2022*.

If an app or site doesn’t meet oursecurity standards 
,
 
Google might block anyone who’s trying to sign in to your account from 
it. Less secure apps can make it easier for hackers to get in to your 
account, so blocking sign-ins from these apps helps keep your account safe.


...so I'm guessing my legacy apps out there at clients will no longer be 
able to use the internal error reporting (that sends an email to me from 
my gmail account).

FYI for those of you who use gmail in our apps for this kind of emailing 
purpose.

Re: Problem with bbControls and MFC70.DLL

Place it in the same directory as the OCX file.

P.S. It could be in the path environment variable. This is not recommended as 
older versions have vulnerabilities, or could be changed to be a vulnerability.

Subject: Pictures and fontnames in dropdown lists and listboxes

Hi all

 

I have come up with a rather frustrating anomaly.  In the debugger I can set
the picture of a particular item in a listbox or dropdown list like this
(THIS is either one of the two controls)

 

THIS.Picture(nListIndex) = "SomePicture.BMP" and it works in both cases.
But if I try this

THIS.FontNamer(nListIndex) = "SomeFontName" it does not work even though
THIS.FontNamer(nListIndex) is a property which I can change in the debugger.

 

Does anybody have any thoughts or insights on this or is it "just one of
those things".

 

Many thanks

 

Paul Newton

RE: CABuilder Revisited

[Tracy Pearson]

The _browser variable is a VFP variable pointing to the Class Browser. 
If you are using VFP Advanced, the Windows file virtualization is turned
off. By default this will attempt to access and write a file in the Program
Files directory. This will only work if you are running VFP in
administrative mode. 

If you are using VFP 9 SP 2, the browser.dbf will be virtualized and all
should still work.

RE: Problem trying to run a Powershell script as an Explorer shell command (Fox related)

[Tracy Pearson]

Now it might be the quote marks and the parameters. Perhaps a single quote
mark. 

"C:\Temp\Test1.PS1 '%1'"

Embedded quotes. 

I'm grabbing at straws here.
The original entry was this:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual FoxPro 9\vfp9.exe" -SHELLOPEN "%1"


Me, I had created config.fpw files for each of my projects that have a
command entry to run a startup.prg that does my environment setup and opens
my project files.

I've not gotten myself into PowerShell. I'm so used to a command prompt from
the DOS days when we started Windows from a command.

HTH,
Tracy

Hi all

 

I have been toying on and off over several years with a method of opening
VFP with a MODIFY command when double-clicking a file in Explorer.  For
example, double-clicking on a PJX in Explorer should open VFP with the
command MODIFY PROJECT  NOWAIT.

 

I am almost there, maybe.  At the moment everything is in C:\Temp

 

ConFig.FPW contains

Command = C:\Temp\FoxOpen.PRG 

*FoxOpen.PRG is constructed on-the fly by a PowerShell script TEST.PS1 as
follows:

 

TEST.PS1

Param([string]$a)

$file=Get-Item "$a"

$Extension = $file.Extension.ToUpper()

$Command = ""

switch ($Extension)

{

.PJX

{

$Command = "Modify Project '"+ $a + "' NOWAIT"

}

   # Other cases follow

}

Set-Content -Path C:\Temp\FoxOpen.PRG -Value $Command

& "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual FoxPro 9\vfp9.exe"
-CC:\Temp\Config.FPW

 

I have tested this in a PowerShell console like this

PS C:\Temp> C:\Temp\Test.PS1  where  is a fully qualified
path to a PJX, enclosed in single quotes

 

I have also tested in a COMMAND window like this

C:\Temp> PowerShell C:\Temp\Test.PS1  again where  is a
fully qualified path to a PJX, enclosed in single quotes

 

So far, so good.  Now for how to implement the shell command.  My registry
settings are as follows:

 

Computer\HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT

PJXFile  (Default)  REG-SZ Project (FoxPro)

Shell  (Default)  REG_SZ (value not set)

Modify project  (Default) REG_SZ (value not
set)

Command   (Default)
REG_SZ "POWERSHELL C:\Temp\Test1.PS1" "%1"

 

However, double-clicking on a PJX results in:

Windows cannot access the specified device, path or file. You may not have
the appropriate permissions to access the item.

 

It seems as if I am nearly there, so any suggestions will be very gratefully
received.  Many thanks

 

Paul Newton

Yes. That is true. 
So you can use "COMMAND" in the place of "PROJECT MANAGER". 
Or make it Procedure you call passing in what the Title of the Outer window

RE: ProTip: Still using the Project Manager?

[Tracy Pearson]

You can turn Docking off on the Command window. You do not need to wrap it.
WDockable("COMMAND", .F.)
OR
   Right click the title bar of the Command window and unselect Dockable

That works for the Document View, Properties and Data Session windows.


Have fun!
Tracy

I was curious if the same thing could be done to the Command window so I
took Tracy's code and replaced "MyProjectWindow" with "MyCommandWindow" and
"Project Manager" with "Command". It did not seem to work as I wanted. Is
the command window referenced by something other than "Command" or is it
just a special window so it can't be manipulated the same way the "Project
Manager" window can?

ProTip: Still using the Project Manager?

[Tracy Pearson]

If you are still using the Project Manager and are on a High DPI screen.
When you move the window around it is not a very pleasant experience.

This code will put the window in an outer window that does not have the
border issue.

DEFINE WINDOW MyProjectWIndow ;
FROM 0,0 ;
TO WROWS("Project Manager"),WCOLS("Project Manager") ;
CLOSE FLOAT GROW ZOOM MINIMIZE NOMDI ;
TITLE "Project Manager" ;
FONT WFONT(1,"Project Manager"), WFONT(2, "Project Manager")
SHOW WINDOW MyProjectWindow
ACTIVATE WINDOW "Project Manager" IN MyProjectWindow
MOVE WINDOW "Project Manager" TO 0,0

And if you want the Project Manager to live outside the VFP window, and be
available in the Windows Task Bar change the SHOW WINDOW command to this.

   SHOW WINDOW MyProjectWindow IN macdesktop

If you do not need it in the Windows Task Bar, you could change the DEFINE
WINDOW line to include this.

IN DESKTOP


The project manager needs to be open before you run this. You could add a
this before it.

MODIFY PROJECT 'TheAwesomeProject' NOWAIT

Do you sometimes maximize windows you don't mean to? Change ZOOM to NOZOOM.

Works in VFP 9 and VFP Advanced.

OR

You could use Doug Hennig's Project Explorer
https://github.com/DougHennig/ProjectExplorer

Happy Coding!
Tracy

RE: Windows 11 ads and unexpected restarts on Win 10 Pro

[Tracy Pearson]

I don't work in a Windows 11 every day.
I have upgraded one of my laptops with VFP 9 and VFP Advanced.
As long as I am running Windows scaling at 100% I haven't seen any problems.
I don't work with reports much. But what I did work with them recently, they
worked. Until you went above 100%. Then the fonts in the report designer
were a bit wonky.

Pageframes in Windows 11 seem to have changed color in the runtime. Other
than that, I didn't see anything different.

HTH,
Tracy

 My Win10Pro dev machine decided to reboot overnight without any
 warning to me TWICE in the past week, and it had me quite pissed off.
 Thankfully my code was all saved (or at least 99% of it), but
 admittedly, I often leave my VFP window open and pick up where I
 left off the next day.

 As some of you may recall, I designed an app for managing my Beer
 League Hockey group (called the "Babs Hockey Fraternity" on
 Facebook--locations in two states now!), and initially, because it
 was so quick to get it up and going, I used a VFP DBC backend.  I
 also use Mr. Chen's VFP 10 exclusively for that too.  After a few
 crashes from VFP 10 corrupting the DBFs, I swapped out to the
 MariaDB backend instead.  (I've been using MySQL/MariaDB since I
 saw Bob Lee's n-tier presentation at GLGDW back in 2003.)

 Anyhooo.did anybody else get a similar behavior recently, with
 your computer asking you if you wanted the free upgrade to Win 11?

RE: ReFox Or Something Like It

[Tracy Pearson]

If you have access to a command window in the app, and the app was built
with debug information. 
You may be able to access the form without Refox. 
If you have the ability to edit a report that is outside the App, you have
the ability to "MODIFY FORM" where you will get access to save it as
something different.
If you are in a VFP session, and you DO APP.EXE, you may be able to still
have the Command Window available to run the Modify Form.

Christof did a presentation demonstrating this many years ago.

Subject: ReFox Or Something Like It

Ok, confession time: I've never had to un-compile a Foxpro .exe file. I've
prided myself on doing a pretty good job of backing up and protecting my
source code. Until today when I ran into a situation with a client who has
an application I last compiled in 2018. At some point after that
compilation, I must have accidently deleted one of the forms used by the
application. I still have a previous copy of the form from 2016, but there
changes made in between. I've checked every backup I have and apparently the
deletion must have occurred more than a year ago. 

 

I was aware that ReFox exists and since I do have the 2018 version of the
compiled application, I figured I would try ReFox to extract the form so I
could edit the 2016 version of the form to update the old version to the
latest version. 

 

However, every time I try to download the latest version of Refox, it gets
either blocked by my browser or it immediately gets deleted by my antivirus
even though I've told both to allow the download. So my question is this: Is
ReFox the way to go or is there another way I can accomplish this?

 

Thanks in advance!

RE: Reprots Field Properties override options

[Tracy Pearson]

I've been digging in to the code.
I have found that since I'm working in VFPAdvanced. The OS(3) is returning
"10" in Windows 10 and Windows 11.
So it is defaulting to the 8pt font size. Since the Case statement doesn't
have a setting for "10". 
Also, it only increases the font to 10pt when at 200% it should be 16pt.

The dpiaware classlib handles multiple scale factors. And I'm implementing
that in a local build for the needs I currently have. 

I will reach out to Joel as well.

Thank you,
Tracy

I have a 15" 4K laptop that I have configured my display to 2048x1152 at

For a 13" you may need to go smaller. 
VFPAdvanced behaves better at higher DPIs, but there are still odd UI things
to contend with.

RE: Reprots Field Properties override options

[Tracy Pearson]

I have a 15" 4K laptop that I have configured my display to 2048x1152 at
100%. 
For a 13" you may need to go smaller. 
VFPAdvanced behaves better at higher DPIs, but there are still odd UI things
to contend with.

I feel your pain. My laptop is 13" with a 4k screen and I have yet to find
a combination of settings that displays my Visual Foxpro dev environment in
a way that is overall pleasing to me. In hindsight, I wish I would have
just gotten the HD screen. It's not only Foxpro that I have display issues
with but it is a big part of my overall dissatisfaction with my new nearly
$2k laptop...

RE: Reprots Field Properties override options

[Tracy Pearson]

I have gotten the latest build from VFPX. The dialogs are not increasing the
size of the fonts as I need.
Sometimes I forget that the app I maintain has the Query Manager in it that
customers use for custom reports.
A customer reported that they have a 13" 4K laptop that custom reports is
unusable. 
So my task is working with this.
I'm looking at integrating the vfp_dpi_aware class I have shared in to it
currently. 
Though it will take some time for me to do a pull request.

Hello everyone,

Is there something someone has already done to override the Fox Pro reports
Field Properties and Page Setup dialogs?

When the application is configured to be DPI Aware, these will not bitmap
scale and become fuzzy. They remain small and
unreadable.

There are other issues with the report writer as well that may need to
addressed in VFP A.

Thank you,

It is with great sadness and a heavy heart to share the news that Matt Slay
has passed away from COVID-19 earlier today.
You may recognize Matt for his many contributions to the Fox Community on
VFPX with the next generation of GoFish,
DynamicForms, assisting Jim Nelson and Doug Hennig with the development and
testing of Thor, inspiring the Go To
Definition feature in Thor, and the VFP language template for VS Code, just
to name a few of his contributions. Matt
also inspired other developers to create things for our community when he
was not tackling them himself. He was very
good at twisting arms of fellow Visual FoxPro developers to get other things
contributed.

Matt leaves behind his wife Sharon and two teenage sons. This is an absolute
gut punch and is a terrible way to
extinguish a shining star in our community.

Grid column text alignment shifts on first focus

[Tracy Pearson]

I have a grid in my application that allows users to edit some columns.
(Most of my grids don't allowCellSelection)
There is 15 columns, the first two do not allow editing, the rest do.
The 2nd column alignment appears as top left until it is clicked in at which
time it aligns middle left like the other read only column.
The other 13 columns are numeric and are all aligned middle right.
The first 3 columns are locked. (lockcolumns = 3)

I have set the alignment to middle left on the column and the textbox, yet
it still wants to first appear top left.

I have set this in the properties on the grid class and in the init event I
also set them in the grid class.
I have set this in the properties on the grid in the form and in the init
event of the form.
I have placed a button on the form that when clicked it sets these
properties.
I have used the Grid.ActivateCell(1,2) to try to trick the grid. I set the
ReadOnly to false before I did.
The When event returns a value on the form to prevent focus. It was allowing
focus when I attempted the ActivateCell.

The text in that column does not align correctly until a row in that column
is clicked. I also notice a white line (highlight?) around the inside of the
cell when the cell is clicked. Once focus moves from that cell the highlight
goes away.

Has anyone seen this and discovered the trouble behind it?

Thank you,
Tracy

RE: Disappearing pop-up windows (like the Find window dialog in Code References, and sometimes the entire Debug window)

[Tracy Pearson]

Hi Mike,

I suspect when your laptop is open in the dock it becomes Monitor #1, and the 
main monitors are in the negative numbers then.
Are these windows in the Screen or on the Desktop directly?

Hi Michael,

the resource file will store the position of the various windows, as I'm 
sure you know. If the left or top value gets set to something negative 
then it won't be visible. So maybe in your screen setup somehow things 
are getting changed around and you are ending up with a position off the 
screen somewhere?

If you know the debug window is the active window, you can press Alt, 
then left arrow, then down arrow, then "M" and you will be able to move 
the window with the arrow keys. That might give you a better idea of 
where the window is.

Frank.

to try them out. I am not exactly sure where to put the files though and
what kind of setup needs to be done. I looked at the Editors zip and the
Support Files zip but it is not clear to me how to get up and running. Do
any of you use these tools, and if so, do you recommend them and/or know
how to get them working? Are you guys with active FoxPro projects using
anything else for editing or is the best solution to still use the VFP IDE
for everything? VFP seems to work pretty well on my Windows 10 Desktop but
I can't seem to get things the right size on my laptop. I think it may have
something to do with my laptop having a fancy screen with a high dpi. In my
perfect world, I think I would use vs code to do all my editing and build
with VFP but I do not think that is really possible is it? Thanks in
advance for any advice!

RE: VFP Label Height changes

[Tracy Pearson]

Crazy!

I tracked down what was happening.
There is a caption_assign method on the base label class.
This is triggered before the init event. 
The code in the caption_assign did not change the height of the label. It
did adjust the width of a label.
When the width was adjusted the height would change, but there is not a way
to capture that change and where it comes from.
I stepped through the code and never saw anything when I put an
height_assign method in there.

So to correct this, I have to change the width of the label after the form
has initialized.

BINDEVENT(THISFORM, "INIT", THIS, "AFTER_FORM_INIT", 1)

Awesome, it's working. 

Well, now I'm trying to launch a form that takes a parameter.

Local nId
nId = 2547
DO FORM TestForm with nId

That errors with something that makes no sense. (Function argument value,
type, or count is invalid.)

DO FORM TestForm with 2547

That works without an error.

Should I attempt to bind to the forms Show event? 
Should I trigger something in the forms visible_assign code?

I went with the visible_assign code today and the error isn't happening
anymore.

So, if you need to resize something that needs to reference the parent of an
object, don't do it in the child init method. Some properties don't stay as
you suspect them to. 

Have Fun!
Tracy

Frank,

I originally went down that path. Then I put some code in the INIT of the
control on the form.
?PROGRAM(PROGRAM(-1)),"Height:",THIS.Height
DODEFAULT()

That was when I decided I needed to figure out a hack to get around the
problem. If it is telling me the height of the control at the INIT was 17
instead of 19 that was a problem.

When I changed the Height to be overwritten to 19 in the cNavButton class,
the above code correctly showed 19.
When I reset Height to default, it again showed 17.

I spent a few hours attempting to reproduce it in a new project. I am not
seeing the behavior currently. I'll may get some more time this weekend to
continue my efforts.

There was no code in the Init of the subclass or form instances. 
I put that hack in the subclass, I followed it with a DODEFAULT().

Subject: VFP Label Height changes

Maybe someone can tell me why this happens occasionally.

I have a base label (cLabel) in class library A.
I have a container (cNavButton) containing cLabel in class library B.
I have another container (cNavGroup) that will contain cNavButton also in
class library B.
There is a form (frm1 (based on cForm in class library A)) that has the
cNavGroup and 5 cNavButtons in it.
cLabel has a height set to 19.
cNavButton.cLabel is default
The cNavGroup.cNavButton.cLabel.Height in frm1 all show they are still
default (19).
Yet I have placed code in the Init event of cLabel to display the Height
onto the screen and I get 17.

VFP can be so random sometimes.

My hack to get around this behavior: in cNavButton, I have placed code in
cLabel.Init to see if the height is < 19 and reset the height to default.

RE: Strange display of DropDownList in Grid

Frank,

I think what happened with me was the font was getting to large. I was
attempting to get my font larger and possibly varied using the Popup
RowSourceType. It's only supported for backward compatibility so I'm not
going to use it. And it didn't work as I wanted it to.

Frank, 
I'm tinkering with a dropdown for something completely different than this
post, and what do I see? That picture you posted of the odd caret on the
left of the dropdown and no text included.

By chance, is your dropdown being populated with a RowSourceType = 9

RE: Strange display of DropDownList in Grid

[Tracy Pearson]

I took another look at that. And I think that might be an odd scrollbar
happening because the height of the dropdown got screwed up. That is very
odd.

Is that a standard combobox or one that has some customization?

Thanks, I don't think that's the case here but I'll double check. I hardly
ever use combo boxes, not sure why I did in this case. Maybe I'll just go
back to my normal way and replace this combo.

RE: Strange display of DropDownList in Grid

I see that on a ComboBox on a form when the underlying controlsource is a
value that is not in the RowSource.
I think it might be the reason in the grid as well.

Doh! forgot about the pictures not coming in the list. I've put it on

It's the only control in the column so sparse shouldn't be a problem.

Not sure where/when to try calling thisform.cls()

The problem seems to happen if I click anywhere in the combo, then move 
the mouse to try to select an item in the list (but don't actually click 
on anything).

RE: Strange display of DropDownList in Grid

[Tracy Pearson]

Pictures don't come through the list.

I have learned if one drags the scrollbar of a listbox below or above the
listbox, then select an item, the Item is not changed.

I don't think that's what you are talking about.

Does it have to do with the Column Sparse property?

Does calling THISFORM.CLS() clear any odd drawing over the grid?

The system I maintain has a ComboBox configured as a DropDown in a grid.
I've not heard any complaints about it.

RE: Formset goofy

[Tracy Pearson]

My work with formsets never got past the "learning" stage. Meaning I never
put one into a production application.

There are some bits that one really needs to understand to work with them.
Like common code between them with thisformset.
It's a big learning curve to use them. And most people are advised to not
use them.

The notion of having a scrollable area on one form by using the scrollbar
setting on a second form set on top of the first form was the latest
tinkering I did. Someone made a container class that emulates that
functionality though.

If one form is the main form, it can start the secondary form. The main form
would be set to a Private Datasession. The secondary form would not be a
private datasession. This will allow the secondary form to see and use the
main forms tables and views. 

Why are you wanting to use a formset? I'm sure there are valid reasons to
use them.

Subject: Formset goofy

I have been working with two forms in a formset for the first time.  All
has worked out well as the two forms are simply two perspectives on the
underlying data. I switch between them by turning visible on and off.

One of the forms somehow got set to max width in the development
environment.  This is a nuisance to work with but I didn't bother to fix it
until this morning.  My fix was to scroll to the right bound of the screen
and drag the right side of the screen to the left as far as I could and
then repeat.  This made it much easier to switch between the forms.

In the same session I deleted a series of controls from form2 and replaced
them with new ones.  When I built the formset form 1 no longer has any
controls showing up either in the form designer or when running the form.

I Investigated and at least some of the form1 controls are still in the
,SCX.

Actually I checked details in the Properties of the Formset for the missing
form and discovered the Left setting was -1946 while the same setting for
the present form was 8.  Setting the negative value to 8 restored the
missing controls.  I'm quessing I inadvertently garbed the whole form
rather than the right bound when I was making the screen narrower.

Now my question is - is there a one click solution in the UI to correct
this situation or is manual editing of the properties the best approach?

Thanks in advance,

Joe

RE: Form designer rules?

I admit, I prefer to not use the UI controls that way. 
I also admit that I'm an enabler, and if people want to use the controls
that way I help. 
I should probably start adding something like: You could do it that way,
though it may not be as maintainable if you did X.

Re: Form designer rules?

[Tracy Pearson]

Combobox1 selects into a cursor. Use that cursor name in the where clause of 
the select statement in combobox2. 
In the valid event of combobox1, call the requery method of combobox2. 
The initial queries are processed after the form load event. They only requery 
when told to.

RE: Form designer rules?

[Tracy Pearson]

Hi Joe,

Those settings are working for me in my quick test. 
Does the SQL statement you have in the RowSource work in code?

As a test I built a cursor with the days of the week in it in the Load event
of a form.
CREATE CURSOR ComboBoxData (id i, displaytext c(30))
I set the ComboBox.RowSource to 
select displaytext from comboboxdata into cursor t1
and set the ComboBox.RowSourceType = 3 && SQL statement

To be consistent with your select statement I added the "distinct" clause
and it still works.

I tested in VFP 9 SP2 Hotfix 3

HTH,
Tracy

I want to use an sql select statement as the row source for a combo box..

   -  When I set the row source type to 3-SQL and enter the row source as
   "select space distinct from map into cursor T1" attempting to run the
form
   results in "Program error Unrecognized command verb"
   - If I set the row source type to 2-Alias and the row source to T1 and
   put the SQL select statement into the init method of the control the
Combo
   box populates properly.

I would have expected that the system would be smart enough to run the SQl
statement before trying to use it's output.  Is there something else I need
to call perhaps in the form init method?

Thanks in advance,

Joe

RE: Navigating structure using list boxes?

[Tracy Pearson]

Hi Joe,

You can trigger the code in the Valid event of the Combobox.
Ted has frequently said that events should call methods. 
The Valid event may only have one line of code in it. 
   ThisForm.PopulateLevelTwo()

When the combobox is configured as a DropDown list the user may be more
keyboard focused, and type to get to the selection.
The Valid may fire for each keystroke. This is when you might consider using
the LostFocus event to prevent heavy IO related code.

Or what I consider might be one good use of a timer, the timer is enabled
and reset each time Valid fires. 
The Timer code will verify it is enabled, then disable itself, then call the
population code. If you can avoid using a timer, I would. They can stack up
and get triggered multiple times. 


HTH,
Tracy

Thanks for the reply Tracy,

I think the simplest way to fill the list in a combo box will be to use a
series of arrays that get updated as each choice is made.

I am trying to figure out where in the code to place the select to array
statement so that the  combo box can find ithe array

Maybe you have a better approach.

Thanks,

AW: Searching classes and forms for something specific

[Tracy Pearson]

I spent some time last night looking at this unique repository. 
It's a nice idea, and I would enjoy using it, were it able to be used on my 
system.
There is no installer. There are inno script files that reference an E: drive. 
I would need to edit these.
There are two ActiveX controls that need to be registered. 
I was able to register the editor that is used by the PRG editor and I got to 
see that in action.
The other "ax_ug.ocx" would not register due to the side-by-side configuration 
is incorrect.
Looking at the manifest it requires Microsoft.VC80.CRT and Microsoft.VC80.MFC 
version 8.0.50727.6195. 
That is not on my system.

The intellisense I saw has less information about commands than is built in to 
VFP.

The first time I ran the PRG editor app, it asked me for a System.APP. I 
pointed it to the one I found in Doug Hennig's Project Explorer project. I 
found that it stored that location in the Windows Registry.
\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\GKK Industries\GKK Tools in the key SystemAPP.

This repository was created and all zip files uploaded April 16, 2021.
It has been forked by 3 others. The fork by s-s-a has pulled everything out of 
the zip files. It has an installer for each ActiveX control. Though I don't see 
a script for the installers. The installers are not signed either. I don't know 
who s-s-a is so I will not be running the installers on my systems.

So, I like the screenshots, the idea looks exciting. I do not want to take more 
time attempting to get it to work for me.

RE: Navigating structure using list boxes?

[Tracy Pearson]

Looking at what you have I would consider using a series of drop downs for
each part.
If you only have three parts to the location you can setup the selection
screen in advanced.
You can populate and enable the next combobox quickly.
If each subset could have additional subsets, you may need to add or show
things dynamically.

If you feel the two click method for each part isn't what you want, you
could use a series listboxes going to the right for each part.

The other might be an <> ActiveX control. The ProjectExplorer
project Doug Hennig has made available uses the TreeView ActiveX control.

Subject: Navigating structure using list boxes?

I am an infrequent user of VFP and have never mastered the GUI.


I need to allow a user to choose storage locations from the structure below
for several fields on a screen where the possible choices are in a
structure several layers deep.


Is there a control to handle this or a simple way to roll my own?


This is a simple representation of the locations to chose from.:

Shop/Cabinet/Shelf1

Shop/Cabinet/ Drawer1

Shop/Bench/Shelf1

Office/Bench/Drawer1

Office/Cabinet/ Drawer1

Office/Cabinet/Shelf1

Office/Bench/Shelf1

Office/Bench/Drawer1

Trailer/Bench/Drawer1

Trailer/Cabinet/ Drawer1

Trailer/Cabinet/Shelf1

TrailerBench/Shelf1

Trailer/Bench/Drawer1

Even though the Drawers and Shelves appear to repeat they are all different
and can add up to 150 choices for a location in my office.  I clearly do
not want to scroll through the entire list to make a choice.


Any help would be appreciated.


Thanks in advance,


Joe

Searching classes and forms for something specific

[Tracy Pearson]

Is there a search tool out there that can search for criteria such as the
following:
The Column.Sparse is set to False. That same Column has a TextBox baseclass
in it.

I have already slowly parsed most instances of the Sparse property in my
search. 
I know I can write something that can search for this specific query as
well.
I'm curious if there is a tool to help in the future.

Thank you,
Tracy

RE: _framewk,vct is missing or invalid, but it isn't and it's not.

[Tracy Pearson]

Just a side note:
VFP A turns off the Virtualization that VFP 9 has.

I learned that when I was setting up FoxCodePlus to work in VFP A. It
doesn't work out of the box. And I type too fast for it. So I need to spend
some more time in the code. I have made notes in my forked repository.

RE: _framewk,vct is missing or invalid, but it isn't and it's not.

[Tracy Pearson]

Ted,

In the Windows Explorer there is a bar above the tree and file area that has
the path.
Click in the white space to the right and type the following
%localappdata%\VirtualStore\Program Files (x86)

You may find there is a "Micorsoft Visual FoxPro 9" folder there. It may
contain a corrupt _framewk.vcx.

HTH,
Tracy

Subject: _framewk,vct is missing or invalid, but it isn't and it's not.

Rebuilding a project that includes c:\program files (x86)\microsoft visual
foxpro 9\wizards\_framewk.vcx gives the error

Memo file c:\program files (x86)\microsoft visual foxpro
9\wizards\_framewk.VCT is missing or invalid.

But it isn't and it's not.

I copied both _framewk files from another machine where it works, no
change. I opened the file exclusively and tried to PACK and get the same
error. I copy the two files to C:\temp and they pack fine, and compile
classlib works there (after I also copied over _framewk.h) but moving the
files back to the above directory and attempting a build project, rebuild
all throws the same error.

This is a permissions issue with the program files (x86) folder and I've
tried turning off the "Read Only" settings and in the folder permissions
granting Modify and Write to the Users group, but the errors continue.

Any suggestions on how to get the Program files (x86) to be read-write for
VFP? Moving the files to the project folder would be my preference, but it
is not my project.

Is this what you are talking about?

This is what you need to do change the behavior. It does make it so you cannot

No.  When I'm dragging the Project window (or is it the Properties

right, far right of where I actually am in my drag/move operation.

RE: Variations in CSV settings by region

[Tracy Pearson]

Richard,

I remember talking with Jean-Marie Laeremans about troubles he had with
imports. Different rows of data had a different number of delimiters. He
probably has some stories to tell about those days. Though I don't know how
traumatic it was for him.

Thanks, Adam. I'm thinking we'll probably have to go down the road of
pre-parsing the CSV to determine what delimiters are being used and then
converting as needed.

When I worked for a data prep house (Late 1980s)  we used to use pipe
delimited files and wrote a C utility to strip files back removing the local
oddities.

Excel etc can import using various versions if you are using the GUI, not
sure about actually coding it but a short fox pro routing could read a line
at a time and replace commas with escaped commas and then replace semi
colons with commas.

Throwing this one out to the collective wisdom. We're doing a lot with CSV
import/experts these days with our web-based WWC application and are running
into issues with regionalization. Here in the US, a "standard" CSV means
commas between data elements and double quotes around text elements. But in
Belgium, the delimiter is the semi-colon and text elements are not wrapped
in double quotes. As best I can tell, Excel determines what format to use by
the OS settings and not its own application settings. This makes importing
from a CSV a bit of a dance for our Belgian clients as they have to change
their regional settings, import the file that was received in US format, and
then change their settings back. And, of course, changing region affects
date and currency formats. For those of you working with clients from
multiple locations where the standards may be different, what strategies do
you use to deal with this?

Thanks to all who have already registered for Virtual Fox Fest
(https://virtualfoxfest.com; May 6, 2021); we appreciate
your support and our speakers are excited to share their sessions with you
soon.

That said, we know there are those who have not registered and have good
intentions to do so before the conference
starts. Please do so sooner than later. It literally takes minutes to
register. Here is the link:
http://geekgatherings.com/Registration

Our Virtual Fox Fest shirt store has been updated for 2021! Check it out at
https://geekgatherings.logosoftwear.com/.
You can choose your favorite color or put the VFF logo on any item
LogoSoftwear sells. You'll find instructions for
customizing your purchase at https://virtualfoxfest.com/geekwear.aspx.

After much consideration, we've decided to stick with a virtual event this
fall. It will be structured similarly to
Virtual Fox Fest 2020. Dates will be announced later. We're already looking
forward to a live Southwest Fox in 2022.
