Re: [Gambas-user] Key code constant wrong?

This is an interesting thread If you look back at some of the early keyboards you will see that they did name the two keys differently. And this was a hold over from the use of Qwerty keyboards on teletypes and typewriters. The key on the text (main) keyboard is the return key. On teletypes

[Gambas-user] How to Get UTF-8 Character Codes

Hi All, I was looking at the online Docs and I see a function Code(). The docs say it should return the utf-8 character code. However, in Gambas 3.5.0 this function gives an unknown identifier error. Does anyone else experience this issue? Thanks for the feedback -- If you ask me if it can be

Re: [Gambas-user] Different behaviour of dialog

IMHO I do think this should be addressed as Willy says it will lead to confusion. Adding a component shouldn't changed the behavior of something as routine as opening a file unless the component specifically deals with that behavior. On Sun, Oct 13, 2013 at 9:03 AM, Willy Raets

Re: [Gambas-user] [slightly OT] No Problem with Gambas or MySql!

How old is this database? Is it MySQL or MSSQL? I ask because there was a time when databases did not support transactions. So some db designers did indeed use temporary tables for what was called scratch tables. These were tables where updates were collected over a period of time and then batch

A simple explanation as to why you do not repeat data in a rational database. (Very simplistic): Rational or Relational data bases normalize data so that any usage of a single bit of data is stored only once. This allows the data to be edited in only one location and also requires the least
