I've searched in vain, off and on for several months, and still haven't found anyone else with this issue. Resolutions to similar issues aren't working for me or simply don't apply. I have a web application written in Visual Studio.Net 2012 (C#/ASP.Net). The application pulls a small set of...

I have an asp app that I'm writing that needs to perform some simple tasks. I'm basically trying to connect to our BULL mainframe via FTP and save a file in a location on the webserver. That SOUNDS simple enough, but everything that I've seen so far is pointing me to controls or pay-products...

We're about to implement a project here that will have Oracle picking up an external text file via SQL Loader and importing it into a database. The text file will sit on an Active Directory server location. I'm being told that in order for Oracle to pick up the file, the server will have to be...

I had to do a fresh install of VFP 6 on two of my machines and I'm in need of Service Pack 5. Yes, I know that we're several versions behind and FoxPro = twilight technology yadda yadda yadda. I'm just a Dev and I don't make purchasing/upgrade decisions. I can't find it anywhere. There was...

I'm a Visual FoxPro Developer. We have a process here (Visual FoxPro version 9) that uses a FoxPro free table to export data into a text file that is then sent to a mainframe location. Later, an Oracle process picks this file up and imports the records into an Oracle database. We would like to...

First off, let me say in advance that I am EXTREMELY new to .NET, C#, ASP and true object oriented programming in general. My background is relational databases/Xbase, so be gentle and feel free to dumb it down for me. I won't be offended. Secondly, Thank you for viewing this thread. Any...

I'll give as much information as I can in hopes that someone can assist or has gone through this before. I have a multi-page PDF file with some fillable fields on it. I also have an xml file that I exported from a Visual FoxPro table with about 300 records of standard information (first, last...

First, let me say that I know very little about Excel formulas and complex scripting and such, so feel free to dumb it down for me. I won't be offended. I'll be greatful. Someone in my office is trying to do something and they came to me for assistance. I told him that I had no idea, but I...

I'm having a strange problem with an inherited multiuser application (VFP 6, running across Novell with XP client machines). It's used by Field Auditors on Laptops and PC's, so it's not mandatory that they be connected to the network for the app to run. One user with a new laptop is having a...

I have VFP6 installed and running happily. This morning, after a wild hair got up my butt, I installed VFP9, which has now taken over all of my file associations (.prg, .dbf, .pjx, etc.). When I double click on a foxpro file, VFP9 starts up. Normally, this wouldn't be a problem, but VFP6 is...

I'm new to C# (Old XBASE/FoxPro guy). I have a relatively simple C# application. One form, some fields, and a grid. I was able to get help here for rebinding my dataset after a column sort/re-sort, but now I need some other assistance. I use a 'search' field so that users can find records by...

I'm in a bit of a bind. Not major, but a bind nonetheless. I'm trying to populate a table with data about OTHER tables. The table name and record count. I'd like to do this with a quick and dirty function without having to open the actual tables. Here is the code: * Get a snapshot of the...

Is there a quick and dirty way to select fields from a table that only match a specific type?? EX: Only yanking numeric fields. I know you can store the field types to an array, then use that array to determine field names, then use those names to build an sql statement, but is there a...

When opening a table by double clicking on it's icon, VFP7 will load, open the table, and then open another instance of that table in another work area. How the heck do I shut this off?????

I've been told (by someone who used to work at Microsoft, no less) that using alltrim on an index expression is a bad thing to do. I've been using FP since 1.2 and I've never heard of this. Has anyone else heard this, and can anyone else explain?
