Hi All,
I've sent a lot of email generated by 4D over the years, but it is time to
up the game and send crisper looking stuff. So I've been playing with
sending HTML.
The problem is that when the email arrives, it displays all the tags in
the mail client! For some reason, the mail client
Yes, v16 brings a somewhat frustrating "new" approach to documentation. In
fact, I postponed looking at v16 until there were PDF docs, which were not
released until several _months_ after v16 came out (there were html docs,
but no PDF docs).
I am also frustrated by how the documentation has
Along the lines of, "what is an appropriate use of an object field", I've
been considering this:

Each tool has various attributes, but each tool type has a different set

Hi Jeff,
This is a great idea, I had not thought of it. Let me repeat it back to

Hi Everyone,
Someplace I read that you can take an .ico file (icon) and place it
somewhere so that when you build a 4D app, that icon is used instead of
the 4D icon on the 'Confirm' dialog.
I had this working, then rebuilt my system and obviously things moved
around, because now it doesn't
Hi Everyone,
I've been digging through the docs and not finding answers to my
questions, which might be under my nose, but I'd appreciate help:

I'll pitch in here, too - I attended the World Tour in Chicago earlier
this week (yeah, I live in Boston where it is also offered, but that's
another story). I was impressed with the amount of preparation the 4D

Hi Everyone,
I have a situation where I have a variable on an input form that I set
programmatically immediately before opening a dialog window (using the
"Plain Window" window type). When I move the dialog to the side (to see
the input form, now in the background), the variable still has its

I'm tired of the structure editor and how it requires you to add fields
one at a time and how the field palette disappears each time 4D loses
focus. I created my own little "Field Adder"utility where I can specify a

During a recent upgrade where I created a compiled/merged app with 4D

In troubleshooting a recent problem, I found that I had inadvertently

like to scan the database to see if I may have made the same mistake for
any other fields.
