Grids, Again
by Gene Wirchenko 20 Apr '18

20 Apr '18

Hello: I now have the time to dig into grids again. I hope this lasts long enough for some real results. I took a look yesterday at "1001 Things ...", chapter 6 (Grids: The Misunderstood Controls). The number of gotchas is quite high. I find one particular thing especially weird. Why, oh why, does BeforeRowColChange fire before the active cell's Valid and LostFocus fire? To me, it seems obvious that the most likely reason why one would deny a row-col change is because the active cell's validation failed. I will go further: why else would one deny a row-col change? My previous approach has gotten horribly baroque and still was not enough. There are nasty things happening such as 1) the current control's value not being assigned until after the BeforeRowColChange, 2) the validation using the previous value when I try to correct after some errors (but not always) but only for the first time, and it goes on. Correct one problem, and something else breaks. I am wondering if anyone would be willing to write a simple example of a grid IN CODE to a spec I provide. This is the example that I am trying to implement. Maybe, I am overlooking something crucial. I sure have not seen any examples of grids other than trivial. Sincerely, Gene Wirchenko

INSERT INTO...SELECT Issue
by Paul H. Tarver 19 Apr '18

19 Apr '18

I posted a longer version of this situation previously, but it may have been mis-titled or included too much detail because I've gotten no responses. Here's the low down and dirty version: When you use INSERT INTO.SELECT from a remote data source that includes fieldnames that begin with numbers in the development environment, VFP9 automatically changes the leading digit in the field name to an underscore ('_'). However, when executing the same command as a compiled executable this automatic substitution does not occur and VFP will allow fieldnames with a leading digit to be returned in the resultant cursor. This causes major problems later if you use the remote data cursor to create a new cursor because Foxpro won't allow field names with a number in the first position. ALTER TABLE cannot be used on the remote data cursor and even if you make the cursor READWRITE, the length of the fieldnames can often exceed 10 characters. My question is this: Has anyone here run into this issue and if so, Is there any another way or procedure around this situation that would allow me to manually fix the fieldnames which start with a number assuming I have no way to change the source data. Thanks in advance. Paul --- StripMime Report -- processed MIME parts --- multipart/alternative text/plain (text body -- kept) text/html ---

"Cannot load 32-bit DDL wwipstuff.dll"

Someone in the office hit this today. Win10, 674-bit fully updated. This project has been running fine. The project crashed this morning and had to be rebuilt and only now does the above error show up. What's the most likely thing you'd check? The DLL's in the path. -- Ted Roche Ted Roche & Associates, LLC http://www.tedroche.com

I did *not* get that message. This is bothersome especially when I have needed help. I am not aware of missing any other messages (non-ProFox). Sincerely, Gene Wirchenko
