Corel Paradox / ObjectPAL Coding New Activity

A couple of months ago we have started having issues with printerSetCurrent causing Paradox to hang. When this happens I have been telling my user base to reboot and then try again. Printing works for awhile, then it will hang up again. Has anyone else run into this? Do you have any suggestions? Thanks, Gary

I have used graphic readfromfile for years successfully in WinXP, Win7 and, until recently, Win10.  All of a sudden, I get "Cannot read file".  It had worked perfectly until a Win10 update.  Corel support is unresponsive.  Desperate at this point.  Does anyone have a work-around suggestion? Thanks. Bob

To all, I have a report that includes dates of birth when printed.  I have 4 digit year set as true in the BDE. For one particular dob (2/29/1996), the date of birth prints as 2/29/2996!  In the table, it is 2/29/1996.  This is a leap year birthday.  Although obviously not correct, it concerns my users. This report has printed tens of thousands of dates of birth and this is the first one they have noticed is wrong. Any thoughts? Greg

Hi all, I have run Paradox 8 on a Server 2003 for over a decade using RDP sessions with dozens of users.  I upgraded to Paradox 11 and Windows 10 clients.  All still fine.  This week, though, I migrated my database from a Server 2003 to a Server 2016.  All programs run fine but I am getting multiple index out of dates each day when multiple users save data in the tables.  So far, I have: 1.  Disabled write cache on drives 2.  Excluded database directories and c:\netdir directory from Windows Defender scanning 3.  Edited LanmanServer and LanmanWorkstation to add keys 'enableoplocks'=0 and 'disableoplocks'=1 4.  Local share on BDE=true 5.  All sessions map to the same c:\netdir for control file and use same path to database tables Any help from those who have succeeded with a Server 2016 hosting tables in an RDS environment would be greatly appreciated.

Howdy.  I've got a form that I use for dataEntry.  When I use a dialogBox routine, the Pdox menu changes and when I close the dialogBox, those menu changes remain with my main form.  The important thing for me here is that I lose the capability to use Filters.  I have not found a way to reset the menu to the correct one.  Any ideas?  Thanks.

I am trying to get graphics data into a table - envision a Movie database and I want to include DVD art into the table.  I am able to get the graphic into the clipboard and then paste it into the table.  Everything appears to be fine until I leave that record - then the graphics that I could previously see is no more.  I've tried everything that I can think of within native Pdox and nothing helps.  Any ideas?  Thanks.

Anyone know If there is a way to add a subreport to a report?   This is not a Parent/child data issue.   Essentiall I need to cross tabulate data and give a summary of the report data by specific categories. Thanks

Hello, , I know, I know any Paradox 3.5 users should have upgraded years ago. I've got V9 but have many, applications developed in V3.5 that I use daily. They run fine on XP but am I going to be able to run V3.5 on Vista in all modes ( 32 and 64 )?. I've read conflicting info on the subject. I know it doesn't run on XP64 ( no 16 bit support ). Vista is 64 bit also, but I saw somewhere that Microsoft demo'd 64 bit Longhorn / Vista running 16 bit Visicalc !!. This is very important issue to me and I would be most grateful for any feedback., , Thanks. John.

Hello again, I need to create a filter for a report from a client list.  The records I want to filter have a string that's common in all the fields I want to filter.  I want to filter on that specific string using the filter function in the report.  I've tried several operators and either come up with nothing, everything, almost everything and then some or everything but.  I even tried the ..*** used in search strings within a table. I'm sure I'm missing something. Thanks, Karen kbalter@sierraonsite.com

To all, As I migrated from Paradox 8 to Paradox 11, I noticed that I was not able to recreate one of my secondary indexes in the newer version.  The secondary index included a numerical field and then a logical field.  The logical (boolean) field was not listed as one I could add in the table restructure dialog box.  I went back to version 8 and added it.  Is there another way to do this so that I can retire my older version.

Anyone know how to programatically show/hide columns in a table frame control?    Mind you,  I am not talking about the tableview object. Thanks!!!

We have almost completed our port from Windows 7 and Paradox 8 to Windows 10 and Paradox 11.  I am down to the last few bugs.  One is that all my date queries suddenly produce no results.  It turns out this is because I had been using 4-digit years, and now only 2-digit years seem to work in queries althought years are displayed as 4-digit in the queried table.  Weird. Anyhow, I suppose I could reprogram all date queries as 2-digit years, but this seem like bad practice.  And hard. So, I wondered if there is anywhere that I can easily reset the date format back to 4-digit years?  I already tried the Windows 10 short format, but it was already set to 4-digit years.  Any other ideas? Thanks! Steve

I have Paradox 11.0.0.676 and thought some of my woes might be fixed with the lates service pack.  I contacted Corel tech support and they said... to contact you!  You are probably either flattered or annoyed, or prehaps both.  Anyhow, is this service pack available anywhere?  Corel had Service Pack 3 for WordPerfect x7 Pro, which I bought, but it does not include the Paradox service pack with it. Thanks!
