Ok, where does one get Service Pack 2 these days? Also, do I need SP1 first? This is frustrating. Eric --- StripMime Report -- processed MIME parts --- multipart/alternative text/plain (text body -- kept) text/html ---

ShellExecute
by Chris Davis 10 Jun '21

10 Jun '21

Hi All I want to ShellExecute a program repeatedly but not until the previous instance has finished, what's the best approach? So I effectively want to wait in a loop until the previous instance exits and then run it again. Ideas? TIA Chris. --- StripMime Report -- processed MIME parts --- multipart/alternative text/plain (text body -- kept) text/html ---

RE: Formset goofy
by Jürgen Wondzinski 27 May '21

Think of FormSets as a predecessor for Pageframes. It was the 2.x way of switching several Pages/Forms into the users workspace. Thus for todays UI I would recommend using a single form with embedded Pageframe. wOOdy

Formset goofy
by Joe Yoder 27 May '21

27 May '21

I have been working with two forms in a formset for the first time. All has worked out well as the two forms are simply two perspectives on the underlying data. I switch between them by turning visible on and off. One of the forms somehow got set to max width in the development environment. This is a nuisance to work with but I didn't bother to fix it until this morning. My fix was to scroll to the right bound of the screen and drag the right side of the screen to the left as far as I could and then repeat. This made it much easier to switch between the forms. In the same session I deleted a series of controls from form2 and replaced them with new ones. When I built the formset form 1 no longer has any controls showing up either in the form designer or when running the form. I Investigated and at least some of the form1 controls are still in the ,SCX. Actually I checked details in the Properties of the Formset for the missing form and discovered the Left setting was -1946 while the same setting for the present form was 8. Setting the negative value to 8 restored the missing controls. I'm quessing I inadvertently garbed the whole form rather than the right bound when I was making the screen narrower. Now my question is - is there a one click solution in the UI to correct this situation or is manual editing of the properties the best approach?

Form designer rules?
by Joe Yoder 26 May '21

26 May '21

I want to use an sql select statement as the row source for a combo box.. - When I set the row source type to 3-SQL and enter the row source as "select space distinct from map into cursor T1" attempting to run the form results in "Program error Unrecognized command verb" - If I set the row source type to 2-Alias and the row source to T1 and put the SQL select statement into the init method of the control the Combo box populates properly. I would have expected that the system would be smart enough to run the SQl statement before trying to use it's output. Is there something else I need to call perhaps in the form init method?

BONUS: $50 JOHNSON & JOHNSON Gift Card Opportunity

BONUS: $50 JOHNSON & JOHNSON Gift Card Opportunity http://smartsirenx.us/if7Dm_lK7pY8iqHI4Rv9PEEUMplGM58AUoMVPnOb_hDAlg3E http://smartsirenx.us/Gon8dSFaqgKYQ20M3htJlAhglnTdfVkIH2zXqTykAusQx5wS pinions and usage of online dating services also differ widely. A 2005 study of data collected by the Pew Internet & American Life Project found that individuals are more likely to use an online dating service if they use the Internet for a greater number of tasks, and less likely to use such a service if they are trusting of others. It is possible that the mode of online dating resonates with some participants' conceptual orientation towards the process of finding a romantic partner. That is, online dating sites use the conceptual framework of a "marketplace metaphor" to help people find potential matches, with layouts and functionalities that make it easy to quickly browse and select profiles in a manner similar to how one might browse an online store. Under this metaphor, members of a given service can both "shop" for potential relationship partners and "sell" themselves in hopes of finding a successful match. Attitudes towards online dating improved visibly between 2005 and 2015, the Pew Research Center found. In particular, the number of people who thought that online dating was a good way to meet people rose from 44% in 2005 to 59% in 2015 whereas those who believed that people to used online dating services were desperate fell from 29% to 23% during the same period. Although only a negligible number of people dated online in 2005, that rose to 11% in 2013 and then 15% in 2015. In particular, the number of American adults who had used an online dating site went from 9% in 2013 to 12% in 2015 while those who used an online dating software application on their mobile phones jumped from 3% to 9% during the same period. This increase was driven mainly by people aged 18 to 24, for whom usage almost tripled. At the same time, usage among those between the ages of 55 and 64 doubled. People in their mid-30s to mid-50s all saw noticeable increases in usage, but people aged 25 to 34 saw no change. Nevertheless, only one in three had actually gone out on a date with someone they met online. About one in five, especially women, at 30%, compared to 16% for men, asked for help with their online profile. Only five out of a hundred said they were married to or in a committed long-term relationship with someone they met online. For comparison, 88% of Americans who were with their current spouse or partner for no more than five years said their met their mates offline. Online daters may have more liberal social attitudes compared to the general population in the United States. According to a 2015 study by the Pew Research Center, people who had used online dating services had a higher opinion of such services than those who had not. 80% of the users said that online dating sites are a good way to meet potential partners, compared to 55% of non-users. In addition, online daters felt that online dating is easier more efficient than other methods (61%), and gives access to a larger pool of potential partners (62%), compared to 44% and 50% of non-users, respectively. Meanwhile, 60% of non-users thought that online dating was a more dangerous way of meeting people and 24% deemed people who dated online were desperate, compared to 45% and 16% of online daters, respectively. Nevertheless, a similar number of online daters (31%) and non-users (32%) agreed that online dating kept people from settling down. In all, there was little difference among the sexes with regards to their opinions on online dating. Safety was, however, the exception, with 53% of women and only 38% of men expressin --- StripMime Report -- processed MIME parts --- multipart/alternative text/plain (text body -- kept) text/html ---
