Textbox Highlighting
by John Weller 08 Nov '17

08 Nov '17

I have a textbox which I use to enter money. ControlSource is a property on the form. I initialise it to 0000.00 in the form's Init. If the user tabs into the textbox it is highlighted and any amount can be entered but if they click into the box too close to the right hand edge it will only allow a small amount to be entered. Is there a setting which will cause the box to be highlighted when clicked in the same way as tabbed? I'm sure I've seen one but can't find it. Thanks John John Weller 01380 723235 07976 393631

NF - Splashtop Remote software use
by Mike 08 Nov '17

08 Nov '17

Does anyone have experience with Splashtop remote software and understand their offerings enough to comment? I currently use $$$$$LOGMEIN$$$$$$ After comments here about (and researching) Splashtop, I'm convinced it could be a viable solution for a LOT less $$$ than Logmein. But I have one specific scenario that I can't get an answer (from Splashtop) about. I have about 50 end users that are in City A, and need to connect to computers in City B to run an application that still uses DBF files. I think it's a Clipper app, it uses NDX files, too. With Logmein it's very easy to a) install Logmein on both 'ends' of the connection (computer in City A, computer in City B) b) place a shortcut on the desktop of the workstation in City A that links that workstation to a specific computer in City B c) the end user double-clicks shortcut, it connects after password entry, and they have their own private remote session. How would that be done with Splashtop? Would it be best to set up individual accounts for each City A remote workstation? I've looked through Splashtop's offerings and I don't really see that they address this scenario. I've talked to three different "pre sales techs" on their webchat and none of them grasped what the scenario was (offering silly solutions.) And before anyone suggests other solutions (software) I have to have remote printing, which seems to be somewhat rare... Thanks for all feedback! Mike Copeland

Why would somebody use this instead of creating a PDF? Was this M$'s effort to replace Adobe's PDF file? Always wondered that.

Fixing a hosed FPT file

How again do you fix this? I've got the FPT file size being significant, yet there are no notes in the memo field apparently. Obviously the pointers are screwed up somehow. tia, --Mike

[NF] Ever work with BODs?

I just had to restart a service on an app-server to get data read in a program called CPM. The service name was Infor BOD Shredder. I liked the name of the service "Shredder". -- Stephen Russell Sr. Analyst Ring Container Technology Oakland TN 901.246-0159 cell --- StripMime Report -- processed MIME parts --- multipart/alternative text/plain (text body -- kept) text/html ---

How many of you use foreign key constraints and References in your database schema?
by mbsoftwaresolutions＠mbsoftwaresolutions.com 02 Nov '17

02 Nov '17

At the day gig, they use FK constraints and References in their Oracle database schema. Honestly, I got into that years ago with VFP but then kinda fell off that wagon over the years, preferring to just handle some things in the BizObj of the solution rather than put more rules in the backend database. The idea was that if I changed backend databases, I wouldn't need to rewrite a whole bunch of specific DBMS code. Where's your preference in design with these in mind?
