Howdy, y'all; finally acquired a copy of Mike's P9PP. Gonna reverse engineer a Pdox4 database, at least a few new kludged features by using the Web server OCX and a few HTML forms.
Currently reading ch. 25 wherein Mike recommends reading "jPdox Web Utilities," a PDF doc that's included in the Reference Center. However, can't find it anywhere on my CD. I'd be obliged if someone would send it by e-mail to jazzbaritone@yahoo.com so that I too can whip up browser-enabled Pdox apps.
I realize you have my book, but for others.....Today I posted a new article to the Paradox group titled "Paradox and the Internet". This article gives a pretty good overview of the Paradox internet features. The content is from my Paradox 9 Power Programming book.
The starter member doesn't change or at least I've never seen that behavior, yet at least. I'll browse around to the various views to see if any of them are not working correctly. If I find something I'll fix it. Either way, I'll post my results here.
I think I found what you were looking at. In the group board version of the summary, the "label only" at the top of the last column next to the Last Active thread said "Thread Starter' instead of "Last Post By". I changed the label to "Last Post By".
The java stuff doesn't work. Or at least no one I know has succeeded with it.
Rather, go directly to the Web OCX on the server, supported by Paradox. With straight HTML.
A 'Tutorial' is available at

or

if the first wraps to unusable.
OK, thanx anyway, Montana. I'll finish Mike's P9PP, and complete Tony's tutorial. I've done this before with other Web servers, so shouldn't be too mysterious.
