Hello:
I got an interesting error message today. It was another
example of an error message indicating that an error had occurred
with the message not terribly useful for determining the actual error.
Try the following
use sometable
copy to nothere\nothere\sometable
copy to nothere\nothere\somecopy type xl5
where sometable is some table and nothere\nothere is a non-existent
subdirectory chain.
The error message for the first copy command is "Invalid path
or filename." This is sensible.
The error message for the second copy command is "OLE error
code 0x80030003: Unknown COM status code." Huh?
Copying to a directory that does not exist results in an
error. You even get a choice of error messages.
Sincerely,
Gene Wirchenko
Hi All,
Need some advice on the way forward.
I have been developing apps in Vfp6 & 9 for quite some time with a lot of
help from you all.
Last year I redid an application using Winforms and Azure Sql database.
Now I want to develop a mobile app to view reports from the Azure Sql
database
Mobile App will have say a login screen
then an option to select a report
a date option will be there and say a submit button
The report must display.
No data entry in the phone as of now.
Which way should I look? I am looking at Xamarin since I have Visual Studio.
If anyone knows any better options please advice.
Thanks a lot in advance.

Forwarding a job opening in Southeastern Wisconsin that maybe somebody is
interested in. Looks like remote isn't possible, at least at first.

Subject: .NET and FoxPro Analyst / Developer role in Pleasant Prairie
To: Eric Selje <eric.selje(a)gmail.com>
Cc: John Belich <John(a)belichsolutions.com>
Hi Eric. I got the retained search contract for the position I was
mentioning in Pleasant Prairie and I was wondering if you might be open to
sharing it with the FoxPro Meetup and maybe the Madison .NET Meetup? It's
a full-time position and they are paying us hourly to search for the
resource so you know they want to hire. They might have some flexibility
to allow limited work from home capability but they haven't done it in the
past so it would need to be worked out yet. The position has bonus
potential and a salary target of 85-95K with some potential for flex for
the right candidate. Someone out of Manufacturing would be ideal.
Thanks Eric! I really appreciate the help!

I am using Galaxy S7 with Oreo
Flash/Flashlight often won't come on.
They always work on SafeMode
Usually, work at first after coming out of SafeMode.
Cleaning Cache also restores them
I am looking for a minimalist way of finding the offending app -- don't
want to do a factory restore and then one by one add apps.
Thank you.

Hi VFPers,
Last night RC2 was released to paid members of X#. The VFP support is
coming nicely together. https://xsharp.info
XSharp Bandol RC2.
This release contains the DBFCDX driver and a partially implemented
DBFVFP driver (reading of the new FoxPro types should work).
The compiler also has support for FoxPro date and datetime literals and
some other FoxPro related things,
Full FoxPro (language) support will be included in the next build
Hope this is of interest.
XBase greetings,
Johan Nel
George, South Africa.
Hello,
Does anyone have a link, or the list of what was fixed in the various SP and
HotFixes for VFP 9.
I'm looking for SP 1, SP 2, and the 2 (3?) HotFixes.
Thank you,
Tracy
Hi all
I have a grid on which I have set DynamicForeColor and all works fine EXCEPT that the cell in the grid which has current focus does not respect the DynamicForeColor setting. I have SetAll("SelectOnEntry",.F.) but that makes no difference. Any ideas how to fix this?
Many thanks
Paul Newton
Hi VFPers,
Just announced on the X# webpage, work on the VFP repos will start in
earnest once this build is released. WITH, TEXT...ENDTEXT, USING etc.
already part of the in progress tasks of the next compiler.
ANNOUNCEMENT - Created: 06 June 2019
Just a quick message about our progress in the RDD system and other
areas of the product.
The DBFCDX RDD is now working, and we have also added a DBFVFP RDD that
allows you to read and update Visual Foxpro DBF files. DBFVFP is not
completely ready yet (for example AutoIncrement fields are not
automatically updated) but complete enough to allow to read VFP tables.
We support Binary and Nullable fields, and new datatypes such as
Currency, DateTime, Double and more.
Further we made some changes to the compiler. We have started work on
the FoxPro dialect and we now suppress including the Vulcan Header files
if you are having a reference to SDKDEFINES.DLL or the relevant X# SDK
files. This should make compile speed somewhat faster. Of course it is
better to remove the #includes when you don't need them anymore.
We expect that we can publish a new build (for our FOX subscribers only)
by the end of next week.
We expect to release the complete runtime early July.
And don't forget the special "Spring" discount of 25% for new FOX
subscribers.
