{Too Long!}

Hi, Please any kind one tell me how to change the time on the time stamp field.  I forgot how to do it and could not find where in the system to read about it.  I need to change the time stamp field to coincide with the daylight saving time. Thank you kindly.

HI Guys, I am pretty new to programming as such. Recently I undertook a project where I had to change the current forms to show an edit form before records get posted to the server table for good. However, one of the users is complaining that when he tries to enter data, the form seems to jump such that the line he was editing is not the line he should be.  Of all the users he seems to be the only one having this problem.  One other has said that it happens to her sometimes. I have looked at all the code, stripped all the unwanted code and cannot seem to see any reason why the form would be jumping for only one user. Can you help..it'll be well appreciated. Many Thanks, Ansuiya

I'm using a Corel Webserver control to capture data from a web page.  Works great.  After the posting, I want to send an email to a staff member that the data has been posted. I have the following code: m.logon("","" ), , ,     m.addAddress("products@consoftonline.com"), ,     m.setSubject("A Patient from the Portal"),     m.setMessage("Please check Patient: " + theName + " " + theAppointmentDate),     ,     m.send()  The problem is that the Logondlg box appears each time .  It's supposed to send the message automatically.  What am I missing?

I have been working on a query by form for a long time and have it working, sort of. It's too long (but I can't find an alternative for my use, and I don't think that's the issue) It works well enough with a few issues ONCE. running it a second time brings up the error  - An error was triggered in the execute qbe method on an object of query type, which generally  indicates missing or double pipe in the query script, but it has not changed. I am thinking the query is still open? Is there a way to assure it is closed at the beginning of the script. Here is the entire script. I don't want to upload it to take up too much space. http://www.chefsprofessional.com/cpbworks.txt,

Hi all, I just migrated an application I wrote before Y2K in Pdox 8 to Win7 and Pdox 11.  It went pretty smoothly. The issue is that with the equipment and staff I had at the time, screen resolution set at 800 x 600 seemed reasonable.  It's still fine to have the screen full of my app, but with monitors and other apps running, it is a joke to try and view a web page on the machine. My app is extensive and I'm hoping there is a method to do a universal object resize or a realitive method on all objects to expand the form size as desired and have all objects resize accordingly.  I have an uncomfortable feeling, but I'm hoping someone has an idea, because I'm fresh out of them.  Many thanks for feedback. 

I'm running XP-pro and using Pdox 7 - 32 bit. When I am debugging my programs, using breakpoints, I found that the Debug button bar disappeared. Anybody know how to force the button bar back into existance and to prevent it from going bye bye?

... the datamodel won't recognize the primary key index. I am using an alias to point oracle., I open a form and it fails with index not valid. go to design mode, open datamodel, click a table, click link, error no key for this field. go to tools, utilities, restructure table, change to the oracle alias, click the table, it opens showing an index. close, go back to datamodel, now the table can be accessed via link. Any idea why the forms datamodel doesn't pick up the index, when paradox via the alias obviously can see the index? If going to info structure before restructure no index to be found, but after going to restructure it can also be found in info structure. Closing paradox, reopen, index gone again. If I go through restructure of all the tables in the datamodel, then the form is runnable. What gives? is it the BDE that obstructs, the form, anyone ever seen this? I would love some suggestions to what to look for, I am gettin rather desperate ... cheers, Lars,

I have query based report that uses two group bands. The first band groups the table records by the name of a region, the second band groups the table records on the basis of a "yes" "no" field with the "no" records displayed in the first group., , I want to insert another group band to have the "no" records and the "yes" records grouped on a field that contains size information with one group displaying records with a size >= 100 and one group displaying records with an entry in the size field of < 100., , Is there a way I can do this?, , Any assistance much appreciated., , TIA., , Patricia Moss

Good Day,, , I have a user with a Princeton Videocard & Paradox 9 and Windows 98. , Each time she launches Paradox the toolbars are placed in the cener of the screen., I discovered on the Corel site this isn't actualy a Paradox issue, but instead a Windows issue. They recommend unchecking "Center Dialog Boxes" on the settings tab of Display properties. Unfortionatly she didn't have the setting. Does anyone have a Princeton Videocard that could tell me how to solve this issue?, , Thanks in advance., David .

I am trying to display a group 4 tiff image as a graphic. If it is a regular tiff, it works fine but I can't do group 4. Any ideas?

Trying to add a numeric field and an alphanumeric field in a query. Example, a table has two fields. Field1 is a number and field2 is a string. Trying to use the calc operator with example elements does not seem to work. Snytax I used is, , Field1 Field2, f1 f2, calc f1+f2, , Of course f1 and f2 are set as example elements. Using Paradox 9 I get no error messages, the query simply does not run. What do I need to change?, Thanks for any help.

I'm having quite a bit of difficulty working with the email methods. The goal I am trying to achieve is to from my Paradox 9 application replicate an inbox window that just lists all of the messages currently in my inbox. I've played around with the other mail methods without too much success. I've only been able to send out email, but I haven't been able to retrieve new messages or simply list the current messages that are already in my inbox. Can someone point me in the right direction?

Hi, After working with an external OCX (Design a form with a Map Object MO10.ocx from ESRI)imported in Paradox, I receive an ERROR like this :, , 'The instruction at "0x09fbe773" referenced memory at "0x0a163a38". The memory could not be "read"., Click OK to terminate the program.', , How can I get rid of this ?, , Liviu Turturica.

I have a question as to where the filter criteria is applied to a table view when using an SQL database such as Interbase. Is the criteria sent to the server and the filtered set returned to the client or is the table supplied to the client where it applies the filter criteria to? I need to know from a performance standpoint accessing tables over a WAN should I avoid filters and perform a query every time or will filters be acceptible?, , Thanks for any ideas,, , Matthew Wegener
