using the GDI classes in system.app is very very slow on some PCs and i've been unable to see the difference between them and other PCs where it runs normally. here is a short extract from a coverage log 87.722426,sfribbonbase,sfribbonbase.init,3,c:\program files...

Background. 500 or so individual customer databases on cloud hosted mysql(Mariadb) servers all of identical structure. One of the tables in each database holds binarydata (as blob) - JPGs & PDFs for the most part; attached to journal entries showing user activity stretching back years. The...

if putfile() and commondialog.showsave() start objecting that the filename doesn't exist it's because the built-in anti-ransomware feature in windows control panel is switched on (for that folder). (please don't ask how long it took me to connect the two). hth n

did anyone else's drag&drop from outlook suddenly stop working? The OLEDRAGDROP event is firing but odataobject.getformat() never returns .t. (as last resort it loops from -64000 to +64000) Worked until very recently so am guessing a recent outlook update broke it. Dragging from explorer still...

Doug Hennig has this on his blog.... https://doughennig.blogspot.com/2021/02/announcing-virtual-fox-fest-may-2021.html (i'm assuming he won't mind me reposting it here) n

this https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2021/01/microsoft-hints-at-coming-sweeping-visual-rejuvenation-of-windows-10 has got me worrying that VFP apps are about to look more dated..... the fact that VFP doesn't honour windows 10 dark mode is already a concern. If VFP is getting left behind here a...

Has anyone found a way of handling this image format in VFP? I've been looking for converters and the best i can find so far is the API at https://cloudconvert.com/ for a small monthly fee. Any other suggestions? n

what would stop me seeing an OLESetData event being fired on the source object when the destination object issues a odataobject.getdata() ? Instead the destination object's odataobject.getdata(1) simply returns false. (it all works when i .setdata() within the OLEStartDRag event but I'm hoping...

What's the latest with this? Any recent developments i missed? More and more of my customers have Macs and the RDP licences add to my costs. A VM, i know, is probably the better option but just wondering if anyone has had any any legal advice or even is running a VFP .exe on a Mac under Wine...

one PC (just one) with my VFP9 .exe installed is showing � instead of a pound sign and the unknown character symbol (diamond+?) instead of copyright. These values aren't coming from a table but a hard coded character string. The Windows regional settings are UK, no extra codepages or...

tried to update to this version of the odbc connector from 3.1.10 but a simple select is returning zero for all int columns, decimal columns are ok. Works fine with the 3,1,10 version of the connector. This is accessing a MariaDB server ... version 10.3.11. is there a new setting i'm missing...

getting an error from a MariaDB server (version 10.3.11) when my query includes a BEGIN ATOMIC. Query works fine when using mysql ODBC connector 5.3.10 to the same server. BEGIN NOT ATOMIC SET @CONTEXT_INFO ='HP17 # Nigel:::rentman.opendata@21:rentman.finddata@32';select * from misc; END...

hi all, there's been a change in the mysql driver at version 5.3.12 such that m.variable = .f. sqlexec(nnnnn,"SELECT * from xyz where abc = ?m.variable") returns no results (and it should). if i change the query to "... where abc = 0" i get the results i expect. it worked up until this...

is anyone else seeing their vfp 9 applications (i.e. a built .exe) going non-responsive? no error messages... just freezes and you have to let windows close the application. a few customers have had this happen a few times and i was expecting it to be AV or some such but just had it happen on...

can anyone point me to the redistributable .msi for this? the only SQLncli.msi i can find is 10.0. tia nigel

i'm missing the .dll for SQLXMLBulkLoad.SQLXMLBulkload.4.0 and the MS download only supports Windows < 7 does anyone have the .dll i can manually install or know of a download link other than https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=30403 (this claims it supports win 7 but i...

i have an application that uses a table as a message queue with client PCs putting a request in the table (new record) and an .exe on a server listening for requests and writing the reply. Been working well for several years at a variety of customers with different versions of Windows Server...
