I clicked it and it loaded VFP9 but it wouldn't run under VFP9! Nothing would run under VFP6 either. I found that the installation had changed all the file associations to VFP9. I manu ...Show All

• Shirajul Alam Open table exclusively?

  Forgive my ignorance - I've recently reinstalled XP and subsequently Foxpro 7.0. Now when i double click on a foxpro dbf file it opens the table and another datasession labeled 'B' (i'm supposing it's a datasession). Previously, when i opened a table i was in exclusive mode and didn't have this duplicate table open also. I normally work in exclusive mode because my data is not in a shared environment (i'm a vb developer). Any suggestions thanks ...Show All

  I need to make charts. I started with MSChart Control and so far I've accomplished almost all I wanted except for one thing which totally eludes me. I need a simple line chart, not columns or a pie. I need to display a row of data like DJIA or similar indices with no additional vertical bars or other embelishments.
