    Can one Drag and Drop onto a FileListBox?

    No matter what I do, it doesn't seem to allow a e.g. a file being dropped onto it. Perhaps it is the wrong approach, but I want to drag and drop so that a user can drop files into the directory assigned to the FileListBox.

    Searching for Uppercase characters in a string

    I would greatly appreciate it if someone could provide a function to search for Uppercase characters in string, except the first one. This is what I need to do, search for Caps in a string, and when found, insert a space in front of it, e.g: TheFantasticCollection to The Fantastic Collection...

    Code to display current date and time in UTC format?

    I need to obtain the current date and time in UTC (ISO 8601 extended) format to save it to a file like this: "2013-02-02T11:25:17Z" Would like the complete code (I do apologize for this, but my knowledge of this kind of programming is virtually zero [blush] ), e.g. a Button1OnClick event...

    Display text between brackets in an EditBox?

    The application should load the contents of a file into an invisible memo, and display the text between brackets in an EditBox so that a user can change it and save the file. The file itself contains a number of lines, but the ones I'm interested in have the following format: "integer...

    How do I add an Undo procedure?

    I have 2 listboxes: one which contains filenames and the other folder locations. A button is used to add a filename via opendialog to the listbox, while clicking on a listbox containing folders adds the folder. The selections work in pairs, e.g. Folder A goes with File A, Folder B with File...

    How do I find specific text in a TSringList?

    I've been Googling for 2 days and can't seem to find a suitable solution. The Stringlist will contain strings similar to the following: D:\_DAZContent\DSClothing\Clothing\Runtime\Textures\Rhiannon\Sophie\Sophie_torso.jpg...

    Lyrics sync out after the first minute

    It all started on this post, and I'm very grateful to Daddy and Glenn for their input on that. http://www.tek-tips.com/viewthread.cfm?qid=1459740 I had to make some changes, because the original code in that post created and read the timestamps in the [000000] format, and I discovered later...

    How can I change the fontsize of the mainmenu items in D2010?

    One would think that there would be a Font property for MainMenu Items, since there is one for just about everything else e.g. Buttons, Labels, etc.

    TMediaPlayer - how can I get current track position (time)?

    I would like to display the length of a track being played with TMediaPlayer, as well as the current position. The length is no problem, as I can get that by using var Duration:integer; Duration:=MediaPlayer1.Length; However, I can't see anything which gets the current time/length/position...

    How to accept letters only in TEdit?

    TEdit has a NumbersOnly property, but I only want letters as input allowed. I've tried all sorts of code, Googled, but can't find a solution. I have 3 edit boxes, each containing only a single character (MaxLength = 1). When a user enters a number, then nothing should happen. Only when a letter...

    I need to print a Word document from my application

    I have achieved the most important goal, which was to populate some Word documents with data from my application. I managed this with the aid of Bookmarks in Word, and the OLEServer in Delphi. Now what I would like as the topping on the cake, is being able to print the same document from the...

    I need to create an auto fill application

    At work we have 5 or 6 different documents, of which all but one are Word docs, the other being a PDF. All of them relates to a single customer, and they contain the customers name, address, etc, etc. All this are being completed by hand, which can take a long time, especially if there are more...

    Installers for projects

    If memory serves me right, Installshield used to support Delphi to create installers for projects. I think the last version of Installshield which supported Delphi was Installshield Express 5, and I think Delphi 5 was the last version to bundle Installshield Express with it. Are there any...

    Build - distributing with packages

    This has always confused the heck out of me, maybe somebody can explain it clearly. At the moment I have no version of Delphi installed, having just done a clean reinstall of Vista 64 bit. Yesterday I decided to fire up a compiled executable of an old project I worked on years ago. It...

    Run external application in a window or aligned to a panel?

    I know how to execute an external application, but I'm wondering if one can program the output. I would like to open the external application inside mine, e.g. aligned to a panel. The application I have in mind displays in the centre of the desktop, cannot be resized although it can be moved.

    Can I install D2007 on Windows XP 64?

    From what I understand, one can install it on Vista 64, although I could be wrong. I'm considering installing Win64 as it would speed up my graphics and video editing. D2007 concerns me as I'm not sure if it is possible. Thanks.

    Code layout

    I like to organize my code into sections, so that I don't have to scroll up and down to find a specific procedure, function, etc. Now it appears to me, unless I'm mistaken, that certain (if not all) function routines have to appear first after {$R *.dfm} before any procedure routines. Is there...

    Store exe in application and extract to specified folder?

    I would like to store an external application (small) inside my compiled program, and when it is needed, extract it to a specified folder, execute it from there and then delete itself when completed. Executing and deleting it is the easy part, it is storing it within the compiled application...

    Search Registry to check if an application is installed

    My application needs to check if another application is installed or not. As the application folder could have various names, e.g. Delphi6, Delphi 7, etc, it would be better to search the registry. TRegistry doesn't appear to have any search properties. Does anyone have a method to search the...
