Re: Problem Running Foxpro
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýAlso, you may want to confirm that any existence of FOXUSER.dbf and FOXUSER.fpt are not read only on the server.? (check the entire server - temp directories, etc).? Plus, try just deleting those files - the app will recreate them.

Is it an app or exe?? The exe will demand VFP8.0 but the app may recompile |

doing something. It seems like you're going to have to figure out just what that something is, then determine how to fix it. You say there's no READ EVENTS involved, so it seems like it's either waiting for input into the dialog box, which for some reason isn't made visible, or it's stuck in an infinite loop during the data import routine. This would be easy to figure out if you could reproduce the problem on your machine, but it gets to be a PITA when it only happens on a remote site, without the Debugger available, depending on the customer to tell you what's going on, etc. One thing I've found invaluable in such situations is to include a Trace method in my apps which includes code like this: lcFile = 'DEBUG'+RIGHT(DTOS(DATE()),4)+'.TXT' lcText = TIME(1)+' '+TRANSFORM(PROGRAM(PROGRAM(-1)-1))+' '+lcText STRTOFILE(lcText+CR,lcFile,.T.) lcText is passed in as a parameter I scatter calls to this a crucial points thruout the program, trying to include helpful notes (including variable values) in the parameter string. I then tell the user to run it to reproduce the problem and have them send me the resulting DEBUGxxxxx.TXT file. Typical output might look like this: 01:12:24.25 ACECODECLASS.ECHANDLER register button clicked 01:12:24.26 ACECODECLASS.REGINIT Initializing. UserID=XX0000098 Etc. In your case, you could stick in some strategic calls like this: Trace("Ready to starting input routine...") ... Trace("Input file opened.") ... Trace("Data has been imported.") ... Trace("Ready to show dialog") nResult = MESSAGEBOX(...) or however you do this Trace("Done with dialog. Result="+TRANSFORM(nResult) Etc etc.... Looking at the trace output should at least let you know what point in the program to focus on. If it gets to "ready to show dialog" and stops, you'll know that it's a dialog display issue. Or you may end up rethinking your statement that the data is not an issue... --stein Stein Goering Arbutus Computer Services 17494 Merry Hill Rd Richland Center, WI 53581 608.538.3820 -----Original Message-----

Do you have to call the Refresh() method?
Visual FoxPro Language Reference REFRESH( ) FunctionSee Also CREATE SQL VIEW | CURSORGETPROP( ) | CURSORSETPROP( ) Refreshes data in an updatable SQL view. REFRESH([nRecords [, nRecordOffset]] [, cTableAlias | nWorkArea]) I was thinking there'd be a property of the view to auto-refresh every, say, x seconds, but I don't see anything like that. Eric |

I am working vfp6. I am attempting to have a remote view that links to a sql server 2000 database. I have the cursor and it works ok.

Re: Problem Running VFP
This program is not very complicated. It imports the
data, does some calculations and generates a report. There is no form or menu. They just wanted a dialog box to inform them that the data had been imported with no problems. So I don't think I need a read events in it. --- SY <sy@...> wrote: This was the solution to a similar problem I was;en-us;132697&Product=fox

Re: Problem Running VFP
I've got a client that has been running an app
written in VFP6. It has been running fine for several years. They recently upgraded to XP Professional and it was still running. Now they say it won't run. It starts then 'Goes away'. It shows up if they check the task list as still running. I've told them to try it on another machine and it works on that one, which is also XP Prof. I think it is getting to a point where a dialog box comes up. Any ideas? __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Search - Find what youre looking for faster |
