• Visual FoxPro cannot open up a form-- BIG TROUBLE

  I have been working on this form for about two months adding new objects and manipulating databases. The last save I did was about 4 days ago. I have a few grids in it on different pages of pageframe and everything worked fine. I never added any columns to any grid at design time. At runtime VFP determines the column layout after a grid is given an alias as a record source. Today, just a few minutes ago I decided to add three columns to a grid which has always been empty at design time. After I did a save, I got an error message at runtime: Error loading file - record number 34: o_Grid2 <or one of its members>. Header Class: ...Show All

• Windows Forms Combining ClickOnce and MSI Installer

  Hi, I have been surprised by the gap there is between ClickOnce and MSI. And I need to solve this. The scenario is this: Install a windows form application on a client (registry values, files, folder creation) and use ClickOnce to just update the application. Any GOOD documents about it Thanks!!!

• Visual C++ Where can I get the naming convention of C++

  Dear All, It would be a good practice to follow the standard naming convention of C++ (or Visual C++) when you write a program in order to avoid the word confusion. I would apprecite if you provide me with a documentation or a link about the naming convention of C++ or Visual C++ Your help is appreciated. Regards Bassam The most common convention would be Hungarian notation, which means that you use an abbreviation for type at the start of a variable as in nSize for an int, szSize for a CSize or SIZE, etc. You'd also put m_ for member variables, as in m_szSize. Really, so long as you ...Show All

  Hi all ... new guy here. I've been able to specify an encoding for a StreamWriter, such as Unicode. Is there any way to specify font information when writing to a file Thanks!

If not, there's not a lot you can do, at least on the level of writing out a text file. Glad to help :-) ...Show All

• Windows Forms Populating controls from a ListView

  I have a ListView control that is populated with values from a DataSet. I want to (upon selecting a row in the ListView control) populate a series of controls on the same form (text boxes, combo boxes, etc.). In VB6, I would use the ItemData property to snag the ID and use that as a key to find the corresponding record. I don't see a way to associate an ID with each row in the ListView. If I can do this, I can then get the ID and get the corresponding record from the DataSet (using DataRow = DataSet.Tables["Table_Name"].Rows.Find(Table_ID) ). Any help in this area would be great. Thanks!! Thank you for the help Jacob. This gets me poin ...Show All
