Hey Desmond, yes that should do the trick. Here is my C# Example axAcroPDF_MA.setShowToolbar(true); // if you want to include a toolbar axAcroPDF_MA.LoadFile(fileNames[0]); // load pdf file axAcroPDF_MA.Visible = true; Cheers, Claude

Menu
by Sytze de Boer 14 Jul '16

14 Jul '16

I think I'm going nuts I have created a menu, its called WINB18 I can see the 4 files (mnx,mnt, mpr and mpx) If I issue the command, DO WINB18.MPR, all options on the menu work just fine But, if I load the menu from my MAIN.prg, the menu shows, BUT the only options that fire are those setup as a Procedure. All the options listed under the Submenu are greyed out I've gone to another application I have developed and all is fine with those menus It's only with this one, a new system under development. For the life of me, I can't see what's different. Can anyone help? -- Kind regards, Sytze de Boer --- StripMime Report -- processed MIME parts --- multipart/alternative text/plain (text body -- kept) text/html ---

You can use the browser control in a VFP form. To test this theory just open your web browser and then open a PDF file it should display properly. if that works for you then that is one solution. Another solution is to use the free Adobe reader control with in a VFP form. I do something like that in one of my C# WinForms desktop applications Cheers

I got around the "multiple coloured copies" when we moved over to laser printer by printing a coloured band on the top of each copy identifying "customer copy", "our copy" and "carriers copy". It has worked really well and doesn't use up too much coloured ink supplies either!

RE: xBASE Appending from a Cursor
by Dave Crozier 11 Jul '16

Another way is to use a scan/endscan loop with scatter name <<oObject>> memo and then an associated gather name <<oObject>> memo after an append blank. That way only fields which exist in the gather table will be transferred and you can also modify the oObject properties (fields) if required before the gather.

That is why I use the xBASE append: I do not have to bother with a column list. That is just duplicating table/cursor definitions and is prone to error (as you allude to).
