Wish List for FW naitive Twbrowse class ( antonio )

Post by Rick Lipkin »

Antonio ..... and All

There are a couple of very useful additions and two new methods I would ( really ) like to see added to the naitive FW source for Twbrowse ( wbrowse.prg )

1) Within the Setfilter() method .. add tuning for RDD's like ADS and DBFCDX to use OrdKeyCount() and OrdKeyNo() instead of RecCount()

2) Add a new method GoToCol( n ) ..

3) nFreeze( n ) .. freeze columns from N

The reason I am asking is two-fold. YES I know xBrowse has some of the above features ( nFreeze ) and Hernan's replacement Twbrowse has all three .. however, none of the above have all three or can be re-compiled to use MSVC as defaults.

Antonio .. I know you are a busy man but I would really appreciate you looking at adding the above naitive method support to your class. I could probably try to modify your existing class, but that means modifying each new version as you release your FTDN.

I am poised to make the jump to 64 bit and MSVC .. I just can not get there because of the above drawbacks :(

Thanks
