• Mats Backlund How to center "Report Picture" in a FoxPro 8.0 Report

  Hi all, I was wondering if it is possible to center a "Report Picture" in FoxPro 8.0 If the picture is smaller than the frame then it starts from the top left corner and fills in and the picture is not centered and looks bad in the report.

• Achiu Figured out... done...

  Hello All, Please, if anyone can let me know how to link a VFP DB to a SQL DB using 'linked servers' that would be great. I need to use the VFP tables in a SQL Server Reporting Services report.

To avoid having to write a trigger and a DTS package to populate the SQL DB with the ...Show All

I do have RTFControls class attached to the form. Thank you. Yes absolutely you can save RTF content in a memo field (and not only you can but you should do that way instead of using General field).
