Windows server shows open Foxpro files when none should be open
by Michael Madigan 25 Oct '17

25 Oct '17

This is weird, Under computer management->shared folders->open files, I can see files that the server believes are open, listed with me having them open, after all my foxpro sessions are closed, even after a refresh. I know they're not open because I can open them exclusively with no error. They eventually go away, but it's 5 or more minutes later. I'm using Foxpro for Windows 2.6 and Windows Server 2008. I don't ever remember seeing this behavior before. Any ideas? --- StripMime Report -- processed MIME parts --- multipart/alternative text/plain (text body -- kept) text/html ---

FW: Refox?
by Richard Kaye 24 Oct '17

24 Oct '17

Hi Profoxers, I have a long-time client who pinged me about running some ancient FXPs through Refox. I never had a copy but thought I'd see if someone here on the list would be kind enough to assist. If so, please let me know. TIA -- rk From: Paul Blank Sent: Tuesday, October 24, 2017 10:57 AM To: Richard Kaye <rkaye(a)invaluable.com> Subject: Refox? Hi Richard, Happy warm fall! Any chance you guys have refox lying around? Have a few old foxpro-dos modules to decompile... Cheers, Paul --- StripMime Report -- processed MIME parts --- multipart/alternative text/plain (text body -- kept) text/html ---

VFP - What upgrades would VFP10 have had...
by Dave Crozier 22 Oct '17

22 Oct '17

Alan's comment post regarding VFP not having any upgrades put me in the realm of thinking that IF VFP development had continued what updates and additions we could have seen. Floor open to anyone with useful additions. For myself I'll start off with: Native 64bit support Dave

Error trying to translate MySQL.longblob field into local file
by mbsoftwaresolutions＠mbsoftwaresolutions.com 21 Oct '17

21 Oct '17

vfp9sp2 screenshot: https://www.screencast.com/t/eY3GYNm4yu I'm writing a new "self-updating" logic to check a table repository for a later version. Table is MySQL (MariaDB actually, version 10.0.30-MariaDB-0+deb8u2). Field in Setups table is called oSetup and it's a LongBlob field. I inserted my Inno installer setup (update) exe file in the MySQL table via FILETOSTR(myupdate.exe). However, when my "check for update" code runs, I grab the record conditionally and then try to do a STRTOFILE(..) but it fails since oSetup came into my cursor as a General field. Would CAST be my solution here? tia, --Mike

How to monitor PCs on local Windows network???
by Matt Slay 20 Oct '17

20 Oct '17

Looking for recommendations: I need a good tool to view resource usage (CPU, Memory, processes, disk activity, processes, etc.) of each pc on my small Windows network. We have 2 Windows Server 2016 servers and about 15 client machines running Windows 10. I want to view any or all PCs from a portal dashboard, and get email alerts if CPU, Disk, or Memory exceed certain limits. - Matt Slay

[NF] learn more about what you hate so much.

This is the 2017 .NET Conference Keynote https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yecu4g5JYB8 It has morphed from the .NET you all hated so much 15 years ago. They show working in Chrome and not Bing. the beginning goes over NuGet if you are unfamiliar with posting packages to it. -- 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 ---

Reactivated old FOXil
by Jürgen Wondzinski 20 Oct '17

20 Oct '17

Hi all.... Yes, that old wOOdy FOXil is still alive and kicking :) After several years of silence and self-maintenance, I thought it couldn't hurt to take a look at ProFox again. In the meantime I checked the 60-age mark, managed to survive 5 years as a freelancer (after the breakdown of the ProLib companies in 2009), and 2 years ago I changed back into employment. They offered me some obscene amount of money to get me onboard to manage and enhance their inhouse software. Finally I couldn't resist, even after sleeping over that decision for three nights.. Thus now I find myself in a 9 to 18 job, with driving 86km each morning and evening (which means starting at 7:30 and returning at 19:30), but I'm very happy with my salary (and 30 days of payed vacations :) ) It could be worse than that .... That one and only application I'm in charge now, manages about 60.000 customers and their investments of about 1.5 million containers (those steel boxes for freight), which are rented out to shipping companies; with an annual turnarount of hundreds of million euros. All managed in a classic VFP9 app (based on the VFX framework). We print about 80.000 sheets of paper every quarter (that are rental statements for our customers) with the help of Amyuni and XFRX, and do banktransfers of about 110 Milion euros every quarter to those customers... Some big money is involved here.. Talking about rounding differences at calculation time :) I'm stil involved a little bit in alternate dev-tools, stil dabbling around in Servoy and Lianja, but due to that VFP job I barely have time to follow those tools extensively. I wish I could dedicate more time into that, but currently I and my collegue are still burried up to the nose with software changes and additions.. Now let's see how often I manage to chime in here :) wOOdy "*´¨) ¸.·´¸.·*´¨) ¸.·*¨) (¸.·´. (¸.·` * .·`.Visual FoxPro: It's magic ! (¸.·``··*
