Answer this question

  • Dr Mike Webb

    Dear Tamar,

    Sorry, I just read this today. I could have attended. I wanted to learn .Net using VFP.

    May I please request your help on my problem.

    I have a program displaying Songs for our church in a projector.

    What I want to do is this:

    I want to display only part of the screen on the LCD projector but at the same time I want to see everything on my main screen (laptop). Is this possible I saw some softwares doing this. Can this be done in VFP 6 or 7. That's the only version I have.

    Please help.

    THank you and God bless you.

    Sorry, this is something I know about.

    BTW, the user group is in the USA, so I don't think you could have made it. Turns out, though, we didn't have that talk because the speaker was ill. We've rescheduled it for August.
