Thanks, Enrico. Cheers, mate.

Thank you as always, my friend, and especially for such a prompt response but I've been out of the Fivewin loop and my FWH version is about 2008 so does not have those functions.
Regards,
Colin

Apologies for resurrecting such an old post but hoping it's been solved by now. I've been out of the FWH community loop for long time but need to revisit some legacy apps of mine and, in my browses based on TCBrowse, it seems that the next bit still works to display a check (tick) in a cell but no l...

Thanks Antonio and Colin.

Will DLL's (eg FreeImage, RMChart) and OCX's used by my FWH app work as expected?

Anyone had any experience running their FWH / xHb app on a network of Apple MACs?

Colin

What's involved for my client to run my FWH/xHarbour app (I'm using DBFCDX RDD) in a network on Apple MACs? Are there any "gotcha"'s? (eg Will DLL's used by my FWH app work fine?) How good is the performance (speed) compared to normal PC/Windows environment? What facilities would my client...

Hi Anser No. oGet:VarGet returns the contents of the get. (e.g. "Smith") oGet:Name returns the name of the GET's variable (e.g. "Surname"). My suggested changes to FWH code are no big deal and there are usually other approaches that can be used. It's just that I've recently read ...

Here's a template example of possible usage: ------------------ ... ... REDEFINE GET oMYGet1 VAR CustNo ID 101 OF oDlg UPDATE VALID {|oGet|GENERALUDF(oGet)} REDEFINE GET oMyGet2 VAR PostCode ID 102 OF oDlg UPDATE VALID {|oGet|GENERALUDF(oGet)} REDEFINE GET oMyGet3 VAR ProductNo ID 103 OF oDlg UPDATE...

I suggest a better approach to determing READVAR() is by using :oGet:Name by making the following simple changes to FHW source: 1. In FIVEWIN.CH: #xcommand REDEFINE GET [ <oGet> VAR ] <uVar> ; [ ID <nId> ] ; [ <dlg: OF, WINDOW, DIALOG> <oDlg> ] ; [ <help:HELPID, HELP ID> <nHelpId> ] ; [ VALID <Valid...

Hi Patrick I love the xHarbour.com Builder. My problem is that, due to official updates being released only once per year, I find myself either having to use betas of xHarbour instead of official xHarbour.com releases (or else not being able to update FWH etc except once a year). If I am having to u...

Antonio, Otto: Thanks. Your endorsement of UEStudio is good enough for me. (No need for the private session, Antonio, but I appreciate your generous offer anyway). I'm considering switching over in a couple of months. ------------------ George: No, I've very happy with FWH / xHarbour / Borland. All ...

I'm considering moving from xHB.com Builder to some other project builder. I've had quick looks ar UEStudio and xMate. I would like to hear from anyone who switched from xHB.com Builder to another project builder. In particular, - What did you end up choosing? - What did you gain or lose in doing so...

I use xHarbour's HB_ZIPFILE(). In its simplest form use:- HB_ZIPFILE( cZipFile, aFiles2Zip) Full spec is : HB_ZIPFILE( <cFile>, <cFileToCompress> | <aFiles>, <nLevel>,; <bBlock>, <lOverWrite>, <cPassword>, <lWithPath>,; <lWithDrive>, ; <pFileProgress> ) ---> lCompress For unziping: HB_UNZIPFILE( <cZ...

Antonio, please try this sample. Note that a single Validxxxxx txt file gets created (as it should) if we click the button but two Validxxxxx txt files get created if we use ALT accelerator. //-------------------------------------- FUNCTION TESTALT #include 'Fivewin.ch' LOCAL oDlg LOCAL oGet1, oGet2...

Antonio, your suggestion fix doesn't make any difference. The only difference it makes is that, if using ALT accelerator, focus now finishes up on the button. However, using ALT accelerator, the valid still gets executed as per all the original problems (wrong timing and/or executed twice) in my 2 e...

>When you press a button accelerator, the focus is not changed to the button. Just its action is fired. Correct. That's the problem I've been trying to explain. >A workaround for this < snip > Great. That should do it. That solution never crossed my mind (but probably should have, now I've seen how ...
