Check out the VFP2C32 project on VFPX. It has a CREATEGUID function and a

John had asked about a GUID generating function. I was just making him aware
there is a VFP way to do it by using the VFP2C DLL because all us old-timers
don't need no other solutions. g
There are quite a few useful API functions wrapped inside it besides the GUID
generation/comparison.
--
To not answer your question directly, Mike, the GUID function in the VFP2C
project allows you to generate a GUID in 3 different formats:
ASCII (default)
UNICODE
BINARY
If you want something human readable use the ASCII option. If you want
something completely inscrutable use the binary option.
If you do, make sure you install the Intellisense definitions for it. Makes
exploring the available functions much easier.

Besides the long column names are you using any other DBC features? Primary key
tags? Default values?
One strategy might be to pull the data out of all DBC tables into free tables
using SQL or even COPY TO (just make sure you use the FREE clause if you use
COPY TO). The advantage to the latter
I haven't used this particular utility myself but I've used many Stardock
products over the years (going back to my OS/2 days).

Hi Mike,
I think you got your answer from Theirry? Don't use the DBF function in your
ALTER TABLE statement when you're working with a cursor.
ACTIVATE SCREEN
CLEAR
CREATE CURSOR test (test1 c(10))
DISPLAY STRUCTURE
ALTER TABLE test ADD COLUMN test2 c(20)
DISPLAY STRUCTURE
ALTER TABLE test

I noticed in the DISP STRU output of my little test that the underlying temp
file name changed after each structure change. I guess using a long field name
means the alter table code takes a different path that makes it fail.

IIRC good ol' XBASE APPEND FROM will do column matching for you whereas using
SQL INSERT INTO ... SELECT will give you agita fi you try using * instead of
explicit columns. Which also means you have to include any required columns
that don't support NULLs even if that data is not in the source
Vey interesting
John, a little Google-fu seems to indicate that iuf you want to use SSL SMTP
wth blat you need to add another tool to the toolkit. Here's one example:

One of the threads I saw referenced a different command line SMTP mailer that
has TLS support built into it so it may be worth investigating. The syntax
