Hey Jeff, No offense intended. In theory, you have potential performance differences between opening the table, locating the right row, grabbing the data from the memo and finally saving it back to disk. My suggestion is you can bypass all that by simply referring to the file that's already there.

If you are connected to the remote computer via RDP and your connection is configured to share your local resources in the RDP session, you can connect to a share on your computer and copy files that way.

RE: [NF] SATA Drive a Dead PC...
Absolutely. Not to beat a dead drive here but what you need is a pro service that will physically disassemble the drive in a clean room environment, remove the platter(s) and place them in a functional controller/drive housing, read the data and dump out to some other storage. If the platters are physically damaged, some or all of the data won't be recoverable.

[NF] MySQL in this week's SANS vulnerability list
For all you MySQL fans out there, batten down the hatches... Title: Multiple Remote 0-Day Attacks Against MySQL Databases Description: A slew of remotely exploitable bugs in MySQL were released by security researcher KingCope on the Full-Disclosure mailing list over the weekend, with exploits including buffer overflows, user enumeration techniques, and denial-of-service attacks. As no patches are currently available, some of the issues target default configurations, and exploits are already circulating in the wild, system administrators are urged to lock down access to their database systems to only authorized users wherever possible as a mitigation until patches become available.

RE: FINGER TROUBLE
regex should do the trick. VFP 9 code references has some limited regex support. And then there's the VFPX GoFish project, which I highly recommend. It has a great deal of flexibility in searching and can also do replaces for you. It also supports basic wildcard searching as well as regex. I have a little util I wrote years ago that parses a string or memvar and returns a list of all characters with their ASCII values for a similar purpose; hunting down control characters in data. It might be useful so I will submit to Ed.

Finally I setup 2 VFP macros; one to set it off _vfp.EditorOptions= and the other to set it on _vfp.EditorOptions=LQKT and assigned them to function keys. From the VFP Help file. You can disable all IntelliSense functionality by setting EditorOptions to the empty string (). The default settings are LQKT.

RE: Using LostFocus Instead of Valid
Back in the day, all we had was VALID and it was good... or not good... g The boolean value returned from the valid code determined if the user could move on to the next data entry control. If we return .f. from the VALID, the user is effectively told they can't leave the table until they eat their veggies. :-) Because this was the only place where post entry code could run, we quite often stuffed things in the VALID that weren't really related to validating the data entered, such as data entry flow control. Using the lostfocus event allows us to separate the data validation from the flow control. It should be used to determine what happens when the user attempts to exit the control. For example, the user may not have entered good or complete data but we may want to allow him to enter other bits in the form. Or perhaps we want to set focus to or display different controls depending on the data entered in the control we just left. The lostfocus event is where, imho, to code that kind of stuff. -- rk -Original Message- From: ProfoxTech [mailto:profoxtech-boun...@leafe.com] On Behalf Of Gene Wirchenko Sent: Wednesday, January 30, 2013 3:29 PM To: profoxt...@leafe.com Subject: Re: Using LostFocus Instead of Valid That is the missing bit for my main problem.

RE: The Trouble w/Windows...
Just to show that there's more than one way to skin a Fox, I prefer to pass an object reference in to the form INIT, as opposed to the form LOAD and store that reference to a form property. Just make sure you properly garbage collect your external object references by setting them to NULL when you release your form as it is a great way to crash your application with a C5 memory error. -- rk -Original Message- From: ProfoxTech [mailto:profoxtech-boun...@leafe.com] On Behalf Of Kurt Sent: Wednesday, February 20, 2013 12:44 PM To: profoxt...@leafe.com Subject: RE: The Trouble w/Windows...

RE: A VERY Strange Error!
My best understanding of this when it happens is somehow VFP's file handle to the SCT is invalid; how or why is a mystery. You may see a TMP file in the VFP temp files (SYS(2023) location which is the under the hood backup of the SCT but in general your only option at this point is the 3 finger salute. As SCT is also the file extension for some VB stuff, they can also be flagged for scanning/quarantine by AV software, in which case you might also find something there. -- rk -Original Message- From: ProfoxTech [mailto:profoxtech-boun...@leafe.com] On Behalf Of Kurt Sent: Monday, February 25, 2013 4:16 PM To: profoxt...@leafe.com Subject: RE: A VERY Strange Error!

Of course the screen file is open - I am looking at it open in front of me! But, I suspect - that's not what it means.
