Re: XSharp - latest version sample console application using VFP syntax.

Sounds dangerous, finding gaps between X#-C# and VFP with respect to filesystem functionality. If the Line of Business is really decorating the UI, will that still work? On Thu, Oct 24, 2019 at 10:26 AM Johan Nel wrote: > Hi Alan, > > On 2019/10/24 12:57, Alan Bourke wrote: > > Again I appear t

Maybe wrap it in a TRY... CATCH and retry? Make sure to have a counter/time check so that if network is REALLY down, you don't get stuck in a loop: TRY, wait a few seconds on failure, repeat, give up after a couple of attempts. On Thu, Oct 24, 2019 at 7:39 AM Chris Davis wrote: > Thanks Andy &

Re: XSharp - latest version sample console application using VFP syntax.

Thank you for the explanation of the underlying concept of the core functionality presented via X#. My current codebase when I write C# code is usually MVC in nature and I use a good deal of lambda syntax nowadays. On Wed, Oct 23, 2019 at 4:59 PM Johan Nel wrote: > Hi Stephen, > > On 2019/10/23

RE: OLE iDispatch Exception

Thanks Andy & Tracy, I had misread it, I thought VFP couldn't find the msxml3.dll resource!!! Reading it again as the control can't find the URL resource now makes a lot of sense. -Original Message- From: ProfoxTech On Behalf Of AndyHC Sent: Thursday, 24 October 2019 11:34 To: profoxt

Re: OLE iDispatch Exception

I agree with that assessment. I have begun to change my code to use the Chilkat ActiveX control. There is a lot more detail and a way to parse the information returned by the control in code. https://www.chilkatsoft.com/ The bundle is worth the price. Tracy On October 24, 2019 3:34:22 AM MST, A
