By checking the archives I see that there has been traffic here at least up to August 9 (that's five days ago, itself a matter of some concern). However, the last message I received was at 5:25 am August 2, 2018, from Alan Bourke ("Re: Determining Text File Encoding"). There is nothing in my spam folder. I have all spam filtering turned off on my email account. On the assumption that I had somehow been unsubscribed, I subscribed again at about 2 pm EDT today. I did not receive a confirmation email (not sure if you're actually using those or not). Any thoughts? I'll check the archives to see if this message arrives or if there is any response. Thanks.

Error 1150 - Not enough memory for file map
by Paul Newton 09 Aug '18

09 Aug '18

Hi all We have had a few incidents where this error has arisen and googling suggests using Sys(3050 ...) to set the foreground and background buffer size. However I have also seen a suggestion to add the following: BBMS=512;FBMS=512 to the command line that runs the executable. Has anybody come across this - I tried google but came up with nothing. Many thanks Paul Newton --- StripMime Report -- processed MIME parts --- multipart/alternative text/plain (text body -- kept) text/html ---

between clause in TSQL (from VFP9)
by Rafael Copquin 08 Aug '18

08 Aug '18

I have a SQL Server table with client names. I need to select a range of names from this list, but the between clause does not work well Example; select all names begininng with A up to M sql statement select name from mydatabase.dbo.customers where name between 'A%' and 'M%' order by name The result is a list of names beginning with A and up to L To get the names beginning with M I need to write the where clause as follows where name between 'A%' and 'N%' I also tried : where name >= 'A%' and name <= 'M%' The resultant list goes from A to L, it does not show the names beginning with 'M' What is the solution, please? BTW, is there a range function in T-SQL, similar to Excel (A:M)?

Determining Text File Encoding
by Paul H. Tarver 03 Aug '18

03 Aug '18

Ok, this may be a dumb question, but is there a reliable and easy way to detect and determine the file encoding on simple text files? I have a client sending me files with UTF-16 Little Endian encoding. I have some code in place to try to determine if a file is UNICODE based on the first two or four characters once the file is loaded to memory and then convert it using STRCONV, but I'm concerned that although it works, it is a bit of a hack and maybe there is a better way. Any thoughts? Paul --- StripMime Report -- processed MIME parts --- multipart/alternative text/plain (text body -- kept) text/html ---

Optimised search of memo data.
by Alan Bourke 02 Aug '18

02 Aug '18

Back in the olden days I believe there was a tool called PhdBase which enabled quick or quick-ish searching of text data in memo fields. This product appears to not be available any more. Can anyone recommend an alternative?
