I upgraded my servers from Ubuntu 14.04LTS to 16.04LTS today, and while it seemed as though everything went smoothly, there’s always the chance that something didn’t update properly. If you see anything odd, please let me know off-list. Thanks! -- Ed Leafe

Learning to code with python is like learning to swim with those little arm floaties.

Common File Document Validation
by Kevin J Cully 18 Aug '16

18 Aug '16

I work in a Windows Network environment. We're interested in purchasing or building a system that does document validation on our documents across our servers. We're needing a system that goes through our servers and file systems, logging directories of documents, performing a hash on the file and storing that information. If the hash has changed from previous hashed values, trigger a document validation process. We want to make sure that the file is a valid format of the file that it says that it is. Examples: Is the file MyFile.PDF a valid PDF file? Is the file MyFile.xlsx a valid Excel file? Common file types would be: * PDF * TIFF * DOC and DOCX * XLS and XLSX * JPG * GIF * PNG * ... etc. There are some PDF validation tools such as XPDF, PDFInfo, and ImageMagick but is there something more general? Is there a system to purchase that would do what I've stated above? I can build the system if need be, but purchasing is preferable. If not, a command line validation routine would be very helpful. Thanks in advance for any advice.

iCloud
by Sytze de Boer 18 Aug '16

18 Aug '16

I have a client who has now lost their transaction history file for the 2nd time. By that I mean, all records between 23rd of March and sometime in August 2016 I've checked the file. The records are not there with a deleted flag. They're gone, as if deleted and packed. It's most bizarre, and of course, my system gets the blame. About the only thing I've noticed with their system is they run iCloud on their Windows 10 pc. It pops up about every 15 secs in the right hand system tray, to say it has synchronised some files. My system has maybe 75 free standing dbf/fpt/cdx files. The corrupted history file only has about 10,000 records, where, on 2 occasions, 120 records have disappeared. Does anyone wish to comment. -- Kind regards, Sytze de Boer --- StripMime Report -- processed MIME parts --- multipart/alternative text/plain (text body -- kept) text/html ---

Better way of determining resulting Excel column from integer?
by mbsoftwaresolutions＠mbsoftwaresolutions.com 17 Aug '16

17 Aug '16

(Retrying to send this for the 3rd time; this time I trimmed the bottom) I've got a need to know which Excel column a value will be placed using an integer number. I came up with this routine below but it seems klunky, and although it works, I was wondering if someone had a better way? FUNCTION GetColumn(tiNumber as Integer) as String LOCAL liMultiples as Integer, lcColumn as String, liLeftover as Integer liMultiples = INT((tiNumber-1)/26) liLeftover = MOD(tiNumber,26) IF liLeftover <> 0 THEN lcColumn = CHR(liLeftover+64) ELSE lcColumn = "Z" ENDIF IF liMultiples >= 1 THEN lcColumn = CHR(liMultiples + 64) + lcColumn ENDIF && liMultiples >= 1 RETURN lcColumn ENDFUNC && GetColumnLetter(tiNumber as Integer) as String I'm trying to produce meta-code that will create the Excel outputs from a fixed width input file, and hence my need to know which column I will be entering the information per record. Here's the resulting output of code that uses this routine to generate the fields to process. The routine above determined the value for the "Column" value: Num Column Range Length Description 1 A 01-06 6 PROVIDER NUMBER 2 B 07-17 11 MEDICAL RECORD NUMBER (STANDARDIZED) 3 C 18-19 2 ADMIT MONTH (MM) 4 D 20-21 2 ADMIT DATE (DD) 5 E 22-25 4 ADMIT YEAR (CCYY) 6 F 26-27 2 DISCHARGE MONTH (MM) 7 G 28-29 2 DISCHARGE DATE (DD) 8 H 30-33 4 DISCHARGE YEAR (CCYY) 9 I 34-34 1 RECORD TYPE 1 10 J 35-36 2 ADMIT HOUR 11 K 37-37 1 NATURE OF ADMISSION 1=DELIVERY 12 L 38-39 2 SOURCE OF ADMISSION 13 M 40-40 1 ADMIT FROM EMERGENCY ROOM 1=ADMITTED FROM 14 N 41-42 2 BIRTHDATE MONTH (MM) 15 O 43-44 2 BIRTHDATE DAY (DD) 16 P 45-48 4 BIRTHDATE YEAR (CCYY) 17 Q 49-49 1 SEX 1=MALE 18 R 50-50 1 RACE 1=WHITE 19 S 51-51 1 ETHNICITY 1=SPANISH/HISPANIC 20 T 52-52 1 MARTIAL STATUS 1=SINGLE 21 U 53-54 2 AREA OF RESIDENCE COUNTY CODE 22 V 55-59 5 RESIDENCE ZIP CODE XXXXX ZIP CODE 23 W 60-61 2 PRINCIPAL PAYER SOURCE 24 X 62-63 2 SECONDARY PAYER SOURCE 25 Y 64-69 6 CENSUS TRACT 26 Z 70-71 2 DISPOSITION OF PATIENT 27 AA 72-74 3 ALTERNATIVE RATE METHOD ARM CODE 28 AB 75-76 2 SOURCE OF PAYMENT EXPECTED PAYOR FOR MOST etc.

Scrambled environment?
by Joe Yoder 17 Aug '16

17 Aug '16

I'm running VFP 9.0 sp2. When I try to modify a project, unselected tabs for "All", "Data", "Documents", "Classes", "Code", and "Other" appear. When I click on one of the tabs the appropriate items display but I don't have the buttons on the right that let me manage the components and compile the code. I have exited and reopened VFP multiple times with no change. How do I get my buttons back? Thanks in advance!
