• Visual FoxPro executable database

  I have constructed a project in VFP 9.0.   I want to make the project an executable database so that others that don’t have VFP installed on their machine can access the forms that display the information.   How do I do this   Also I’ll need to update the table periodically so does this mean I put the table on the server   I’m really lost in all of this.   InstallShield Express Limited Edition is a fully licensed version. It just has a few features disabled. As Don notes, it works for many developers with basic installs. If you see a feature disabled that you need, you need to b ...Show All

• Smart Device Development how to connect to internet

  Hi, I have cradled my emulator, connected with activesync 3.8 and my desktop has cable internet. Now I'm trying to figure out how to connect to the internet on the emulator.

• Visual C# No clue about arrays, everything fails ...

  I want to fill an array in the constructor of my object, and then use it in in another method. But no matter what I try, I can't get this right. It is too different from how arrays used to be. Either it does not compile, or the array remains null as in the example below. How should I do it class Calendar { private static int day,month; private static int [] daysPerMonth; public Calendar() { day=16; daysPerMonth[1] = 31; daysPerMonth[2] = 28; daysPerMonth[3] = 31;  // does not work, daysPerMonth remains null // ... } public static   AddDay() { day++; if (day>daysPerMonth[month]) {month++; day=1;} // ... } ...Show All

• .NET Development Convert VB to C# for saving/reading an image from Access DB

  Hi, I am trying to save and read an image from MS Access DB based on the following article: http://www.vbdotnetheaven.com/Code/Sept2003/2175.asp Right now, I saved images without any errors. After reading the ole object from db, I saved it to C: as imageFromDb.BMP and displayed on the web. But it can not be displayed. After I manually sent the file to wordpad, it shows System.Byte [ ] Now I suspect my saving an image might be wrong. The table has 2 columns: username and userfile. Userfile column shows .ong binary data I can not find a way to verify if data was saved ok But saving does not report any errors. I am attached my saving and ...Show All

• Visual FoxPro how to define an array?

  I have this situation. There are two functions in a prg file. The first function is major, the second one is simply a container for a large DO CASE ENDCASE clause with about 18 macros for different choices. Those macros do the following (individually): SELECT FROM <table name> WHERE ... INTO ARRAY arr1 The main function gets a cAlias as an output parameter and this parameter is used to address the second function. The return value for the second funct is an above macro. This macro is then used to compactify code and do the SELECT at runtime. The trouble is that the variable array arr1 appears from nowhere in the main function. ...Show All

• SQL Server SSIS Variables not changing value?!

  Greetings my SQL friends, I have a very simple package which consists of a SQL Task component and a Script Task. The SQL Task retrieves a single value from 1 row table in one of my database and assigns that value to a variable. The Script task simply outputs the value of the variable in to a message box. I know, it's all simple stuff (I am trying to master SSIS ) The problem I have is that when I change the value of the column in my table, the value of the variable is not changing when I re-run my package. It seems to be the same value every time. What am I doing wrong ! Your help would be much appreciated. Hi dreameR, Is your SQL ...Show All
