Pictures in a table
by Ken Watkins 16 Aug '22

16 Aug '22

Hi ProFoxers. I haven't posted in a decade or two, but I'm still hanging around. I am writing an app for my son to manage his business. He's a therapist and routinely jots down notes on a small notepad during his client sessions. He later adds typewritten notes into the client record but he also takes a picture of his handwritten notes and copies/pastes it into the client record. He's been using OneNote to accomplish this but he wants to move away from that. So I started my app and it creates the client records and the memo fields needed for the notes but I can't figure out what to do with the picture. Now I know that the standard advice is "do not store the picture in a General field, store the path to the picture..." But I'm wondering if there is a device or third party app that I could use to link the picture to the client record. I even thought about him using a tablet with an electronic pen to store his scribblings and somehow tie that into my Foxpro table. Just looking for ideas on how to incorporate images with Foxpro records elegantly. Thanks.

Report page number resets by group using page x of y expression
by Richard Kaye 15 Aug '22

15 Aug '22

ProFoxers, I have a report. It has 2 groups and I'm using a page x of y object in the page footer. I want the page numbers to reset on the outer group. I've set the appropriate setting in that group. With the particular data set I am testing with, the first group only has one page worth of data. All the rest of the groups have up to 2 pages of data. However, the x of y object shows 1 of 2 for the first group and I'm expecting 1 of 1. As I continue to poke at this I figured why not throw out an actual VFP question to the collective wisdom. Happy Friday! -- rk --- StripMime Report -- processed MIME parts --- multipart/alternative text/plain (text body -- kept) text/html ---

Document View magic inside a long PRG
by MB Software Solutions, LLC 10 Aug '22

10 Aug '22

Well, maybe not magic...and maybe many of you already knew this....but if you wondered "what method am I in right now?" whilst looking at a super long section of code in a PRG, opening up Document View will highlight the current method you're in. Again...probably "nothing to see here...please disperse" but I thought I'd share it in case somebody else wondered this. Happy hump day! -- Michael J.
