FiveTech Software tech support forums

Since I am fast approaching retirement age, I need to start thinking about cutting back on my activities. I have several FWH - xHarbour apps that I developed for a US specialty chemical company and I would like some names of programers who would be interested in servicing the software if the company...

Thanks, Antonio. This will do the job for me.

Hi James - Thanks for your response. You're right about the best programming form, etc. However, in my case, a lot of my combos are years and/or months. in the case of years, the current year is shown in the get and the dropdown goes back in time eventually to the first year there are data. Also, wh...

Antonio - Using the following code in my clipper/Fivewin apps, the "get" next to the dropdown arrow automatically shows the first element of aYr. The xHarbour/Fivewin version shows a blank get. LOCAL oDlg, oYr, cYr, aYr := {} aYr := GetYrs() REDEFINE COMBOBOX oYr ; VAR cYr ; ITEMS aYr ; ID...

Thanks very much for fixing the radiobuttons. You're doing a great job with this.

Best regards,

Re my last post about the radiobuttons. It is not just the ones inside a group box. I had a look at your testrad.rc and you used the generic CONTROL rather than classname RADIOBUTTON as Resource Workshop does. Converting from RW will be a challenge.

Thanks. If the esc works, that's all I should need.

Antonio - OK, I can be patient. I have another question, though. My folder pages are all individual dialogs and do not have SYS_MENU on them, nor a button with ID 1 or 2. As a result I can't close these dialogs in RE.EXE so I hit Ctrl. Alt, Del and close the editor. I suppose at some point you will ...

I do use SysTabControl32 but I get a message that TCS_MULTILINE style is not found. Can you add that to the style list?

Charles

Antonio -
That fixed it! Many thanks. This project is moving along very nicely. Will you be adding TFOLDER support soon?

Best regards,
Charles

Antonio - Here is a very simple rc file that shows the problem. The original file has more LTEXTand EDITTEXT as well as a checkbox, but this simplified version shows the problem when I open it with a doubleclick in the re.exe. The string will appear normally if the commas are removed. testname.rc TE...

Antonio -
It still behaves the same way here. With a comma after one of the words, the text starts showing at the very left of the dialog box and shows the first two letters of the word, then drops down a line and shows the first two letters of the next word, and so on.

Antonio -
I have found a bug in the LTEXT class. When there is a comma in the text (prompt) the text doesn't display properly on the dialog.

LTEXT "Change Company Name, Address and Phone Numbers", -1, 22, 10, 208, 10

Ditto on the checkboxes for control styles. RW won't even allow "TCS_MULTILINE" to be added to a folder style in RW so it has to be added by hand in the RC file.

Also, I've found that RC doesn't recognise some bitmap files.
