Re: FoxPro Job

Actually, HR wasn't involved at all. I was interviewed by the department where the position was to occur, as well as multiple people in that department including I'm assuming maybe users of the system as well as programmers of the system.

Gene - most times - folks post about a job - and they only pass on the request sent to them by a HeadHunter. So - they generally don't have more info about the jobs - like Visa req's.

Error on Win10 machine invoking IE in code from VFP9SP2 app
by MB Software Solutions, LLC 26 Apr '19

26 Apr '19

VFP9SP2 app running on Win10 Pro, build 1809. See https://www.screencast.com/t/pFvzYl2H7ZX6. These users are all running Windows 10, and my app works on all machines but 1. I tracked it down (via vRunFox!) to the line that creates an instance of Internet Explorer: oIE = createobject("internetexplorer.application") This code has been running fine for nearly 15 years. Ideas? tia, --Mike --- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. https://www.avast.com/antivirus

[NF] Request About Job Listings

Hello: For those of you who post a job listing, please include where it is. There are issues about visas for some of us. For example, I am in Canada and would require a visa to work in the U.S.A. Many employers would not want the trouble. Sincerely, Gene Wirchenko

How best to do an audit trail of changes (EASILY WITHOUT THE NEED FOR A DBA)
by MB Software Solutions, LLC 24 Apr '19

24 Apr '19

VFP9SP2 app, MariaDB 10 (MySQL) backend. One of my clients asked about a history of price changes. Easy enough to implement programmatically for the few price fields, but then I got to wondering if simply putting code in the ON UPDATE trigger to send the old record to a "history" table would be a more complete (and long term EASIER) solution, whereby my app would query the "history" table for changes. Your thoughts for tracking price (or other) changes? tia, --Mike --- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. https://www.avast.com/antivirus

Landscape PDFs using XFRX
by Joe Yoder 24 Apr '19

24 Apr '19

I have an older version of XFRX that I am converting to create PDF files instead of printing reports directly. All reports are working well except the one that requires Landscape output. Apparently XFRX just ignores the printer orientation information in the Tag1 and Tag2 fields in the Report.frx file. Can someone share what is needed to change the output orientation of the XFRX output files? Thanks in advance, Joe --- StripMime Report -- processed MIME parts --- multipart/alternative text/plain (text body -- kept) text/html ---

[ADMIN] SSL Issues
by Ted Roche 24 Apr '19

24 Apr '19

Ed: My blog is melting down on some leafe.com issues. I suspect you've updated your SSL cert recently, and it looks like some of the older http:// links aren't working or aren't redirecting. http://dabodev.com returns an error, while the https page is working okay. I had to update a couple of archive links to https as well. You may want to put in a server directive, if you can, to redirect the http:// addresses to the matching https:// Or not.

Figured it out. I was hitting the Reply button instead of Reply List button in Thunderbird. That'll take some getting used to. -------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: Re: [ADMIN] Replies going right to the user instead of the group Date: Fri, 19 Apr 2019 17:20:52 -0400 From: MB Software Solutions, LLC <mbsoftwaresolutions(a)mbsoftwaresolutions.com> To: Ted Roche <tedroche(a)gmail.com> On 4/19/2019 10:49 AM, Ted Roche wrote: > Many mailing lists have this defect, but ProFox does not.
