RE: Diffing VCXs

The pain I talk about is not the readability, it is knowing what to merge and how to go about it successfully. Fortunately I can merge things from all kinds of binary flatteners because I work with so many teams that have used different ones over the years. The tools I use are for a different

Hi Rick! I've downloaded the tryal of Beyond Compare 4, installed VFP2Text extension and made a simple form with 1 button on with a messagebox. VFP2Text generates this output (I've copied just the dataenvironment part): [+Record] [PLATFORM]WINDOWS [UNIQUEID]_4UE16XWOR [CLASS]dataenvironment

RE: Diffing VCXs

Hi Fernando, I rarely have to merge as we normally have one-developer one-project scenario at WLC. Always a pain in the neck to deal with on the rare occasions it pops up. That said, the newest version of VFP2Text does support "two-way" if you save the files after you merge in Beyond Compare.

RE: CleverFox Backup

My point is, the Stonefield Database Toolkit does this for a few hundred US dollars. Writing your own reindexing utility for each application you support costs money and time and is likely going to add up to more than you pay for SDT, which many already own. Your solution is simple, but it

Re: [NF] Drop-Dead Simple USB Drive Encryption

My first thought is why not buy a thumbdrive with hardware encryption? ($$$, I know) Portable apps has a version of VeraCrypt, but it says it does require Admin rights to run. Portable apps also has a version of GPG, which wouldn't need apps. Finally, what about installing Portable Apps

Another option, as opposed to doing nothing is to hide the files you want to protect. If someone can't see them in a regular DIR etc then they probably won't have the skipps to unhide them. Right click on folder, select properties then hidden. Dave -Original Message- From: ProFox

Re: [NF] Drop-Dead Simple USB Drive Encryption

The Kingston Data Traveler series drives have hardware crypto, but they're unlocked using a small program stored on separate cleartext partition. They're not cheap however. so after I lost mine I switched to truecrypt/veracrypt. About $1 US per GB at Amazon for the Kingston DataTraveler

As far as I know it is compatible with Win 7 64 and 32 bit and also Win 10. It will NOT work with Windows 7 Home edition though and your BIOS must support TPM V1.2 minimum (Trusted Platform Module) which must be turned on in the BIOS if present (It usually is by default). I quote: "Can I use

RE: [NF] Drop-Dead Simple USB Drive Encryption

Thanks very much. I do recall reading some time back that people were having problems when trying to access files encrypted under one Windows OS from a different Windows OS. I do not recall whether that specifically related to Bitlocker or to some Windows encryption API or something else. I

Yes it can no problem. You set the machine you connect it to log onto the drive and auto decrypt it. It is an option when you click the bitlocker menu item on Windows Explorer (right click on USB Drive). Dave -Original Message- From: ProFox [mailto:profox-boun...@leafe.com] On Behalf
