• Visual FoxPro Copy File Error in Visual FoxPro 7?

  When a COPY File Command is executed and a space is in either a folder name or a file name, the instruction is unable to handle it. I have tried a technique to put in " quote marks in the manner '"<path><filename>"' but then it gives me a syntax error. Is this a bug or am I entering the full path and filename wrongly If this is a known bug, is there a patch for it If not, how do later versions of VFP do with this "bug" Paul B Walker wrote: Is &cPath a special word or function Please explain.

• Visual C++ Visual C++ release build

  Hello, I am not a proffesionalist in Visual C++ (from Visual Studio 2005) so I need help. Can any one tell me if I can build a release version of my software which is Windows Forms Application with all needed dll's included in my application The problem is, that I can not install NET Framework on one computer in our company where I have to put my software. Does Visual C++ always need NET Framework Best Regards, Kamil Weather you build Release or Debug, if you are using any part of the framework in your program you'll always need .NET framework deployed in the target system. And since Windows Forms uses the .NET framework you'll need it on the target. ...Show All

• Internet Explorer Development IE7 icon Problem

  Firstly, let's clear up the icon definitions. Favicons are those that are downloaded from the linked website and show the websites logo or whatever. The icons that we are all concerned with here in this fourm that are in error are the windows icons. These icons along with an array of others are usually contained in system dll files. Indexes into these files are kept track of in the registry and in the shortcut or favorite itself under properties. For example if the dll has 256 icons and windows calls the dll as shell.dll, 255 the 255 is the index into the icon file. In this case the last one (base 0). The problem here is with IE7. The registry entries under HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT (url and internetshortcut) appear correct. I ...Show All

• SQL Server Backup databases

  Hi I'm trying to setup a back up plan for a number of databases, I initially set up one plan to include all user databases which worked fine or so I thought, when I check them a few days later I noticed that some of the databases were not appearing in the backup set, the only way I could get these to appear is to set the comp level to 90, now when we run certain applications we get an error, when I return the comp level back to 70 then the application works fine, is there a reason I can not back up any database on sql 2005 without it being a comp level 90 Thanks inadvance Hi thanks for the reply, but its not getting that far, stepping through the wizard,first it asks for the database(s) to b ...Show All

• Visual FoxPro documentation error - command window - persistence

  Help says "Split lengthy commands by typing a semicolon after a space in the command where you want it to break, and then pressing ENTER." This only works if there is nothing following the semicolon (i.e. I'm entering the command for the first time). This will not split a previously entered command. Are you talking about the Command Box If you go up the history list to re-use a previous command and you want to add to it by adding a ";" then a new line, just select all the text down, after the command you want and press Delete, then continue writing you ammended command line with semicolons (";") if you want. Reused commands go to the bottom of the command list when you re-run them. ...Show All

• SQL Server Null values when extracting data from an excel file

  Hello, I'm trying to import some data from a spreadsheet to a database table from a package in integration services.

My excel file has some formulas to get the data from other worksheets. I added a Data Viewer and all I see is null values in every cell.

  Hi I am wishing to * take a table of data into a C# CLR procedure and store it in an array * take a second table of data into this procedure row by row, and return a row (into a third table) for each row (and this returned row is based on the data in the array and the data in this row).

• Windows Live Developer Forums findnearby results

  Hi again. Hopefully this is just a dumb question. FindNearby does not appear to reliably tell me when it doesn't find what I'm looking for on a map.  I was hoping that I could use the VEFindResults object that FindNearby is supposed to return to tell if it found something or not, but I can't get FindNearby to take anything other than the single "what" option.  How do I access the VEFindResults from FindNearby without being able to specify a callback function Thanks.  Use the Find() method, passing in only the "what" option and the callback. This will behave exactly like calling FindNearby(), but also gives you the callback function you need. Ch ...Show All
