Jan 16, 2010
=================================================
Build 01 (1/16/2010)
XXFwControlBehaviors.VCX/cusDTOTextbox::OwnerKeyPress() method;
this resolves the following issue that Peter Huppelschoten
reported: trying to [Tab] out of a date-bound textbox whose
.Value is .NULL. doesn't work (focus remained in the field).
(Thanks to Peter Huppelschoten for bringing this to my attention.)
- uncommented the following line in the XXFwUtil.VCX/frmWorkAreasViewer::Show()
event-method:
llRestore = oUser.oPrefs.RestorePrefs(ThisForm, ThisForm)
which had accidentally been commented out in the 2005.12.15.01 build.
(Thanks to Ric Unruh for bringing this to my attention.)
- resolved the following issue that was in the VM VMP example application:
- run 'Tools | Options' from the menu
- set language to German
- run the Event Log (Administrator | Ereignisprotokoll)
- column headers are translated except the current sort column
- click on a column header to resort
- all column headers now in English
(Thanks to Andy Patrick for bringing this to my attention.)
- resolved an issue in the XXFw.VCX/frmBase::BorderStyle_Assign() method that
"locked up" forms when that event-method was called while invoking a picklist
form. (Thanks to Craig McFarlin for bringing this to my attention.)
- resolved an issue in the XXFwUtil.VCX/frmWorkAreasViewer.pgfInfo.pagEntireCursor.txtVoyeur::GotFocus()
event-method that caused the grid column .ControlSource-s to get re-arranged upon,
for example, doing the following:
- run the the Work Areas Viewer
- go to the 'Entire cursor' tab/page
- go to the 'Structure' tab/page
- go to the 'Entire cursor' tab/page
(Upon arriving to the 'Entire cursor' tab/page the second time, the issue occurred.)
- corrected code in the XXFwUtil.VCX/frmWorkAreasViewer::Destroy() event-method. Previously,
the code was restoring the SET DELETED setting for *all* data sessions; it now correctly
restores the SET DELETE setting for each data session.
(Thanks to Mike Potjer for pointing this out.)
- resolved the following scenario that Emil Baer reported:
- DO XXDTHack WITH 'ntdecus1.scx'
- changed BaseClass filter from 'No filter' to 'textbox'
- renamed 1st occurrence of class 'txtntbase' to 'textbox'
- upon pressing [Tab] to move out of the Class (textbox) into the ClassLoc (textbox), the
BaseClass filter continues to display 'textbox' but no longer filters the list by 'textbox'
- resolved an issue toward the bottom of the XXFwNTBO.VCX/ctrBusinessObject::UnPackageNonCursorData()
method that Mike Potjer reported
- replaced the following line in the XXFwFrm.VCX/frmStandBy::Init() event-method:
CASE VARTYPE(m.oApp) = 'C'
with the following line:
CASE VARTYPE(m.oApp) = 'O'
(Thanks to Mike Potjer for reporting this issue.)
- Resolved the "Data type mismatch" error that VMP developer Peter Huppelschoten got on the following line:
USE IN SELECT('JunkCursor')
under certain circumstances (e.g., extremely fast CPU and quad processor) after doing something like:
SQLEXEC(m.lnTestHandle, m.lcSQL, 'JunkCursor')
The resolution (a call to DOEVENTS) can be found at the following locations:
a) XXDTES('XXFwLibs.VCX', 'DOEVENTS', 'cusConnectionSvc' , 'TestConnection')
b) XXDTES('XXFwNTDS.VCX', 'DOEVENTS', 'cusConnectionBehaviorODBC', 'TestConnection')
c) the DOEVENTS line after the following line in XXFwMain.Prg:
XXDTES('XXFwMain.Prg', "llValid = SQLEXEC(m.tnStatementHandle, [SELECT 'testconnection'], 'JunkCursor') > 0")
- you can no longer get a "Cannot quit Visual FoxPro" error message under the following scenario: click on [X] (the
Close commandbutton) on a slow machine and/or slow network and, while the form is shutting down, click [X] again.
XXDTES('XXFw.VCX', '_Screen.Closable', 'ctrApp', 'OnShutdown')
Thanks to Peter Huppelschoten for reporting this issue and supplying the fix:
a) disable the button during the shutdown process and
b) restore the close button if the shutdown process terminates
- in the XXFwIUDLog.VCX/BO_IUDLog::GenerateIUDLogWHEREClause() method, now only adding "AND" if lcWhereClause is not
empty. (Thanks to Mike Potjer for recommending this.)
- in the XXFwFrm.VCX/frmChangePassword.txtCurrentPassword::ActionOnValid(), added the alias as a 2nd parameter to
the OLDVAL() call. Peter Huppelschoten had indicated that without the alias/2nd parameter, although everything
worked fine with Visual FoxPro on the back-end, he experienced a problem when his data was in SQL Server.
- resolved an error that occurred when doing the following steps:
- fire up the NT Example application development environment
- ensure IUD logging is enabled for the example application/database
- DO FORM NTDECusC1.SCX
- make at least one change to a Customer record to ensure that there is IUD log data for it
- [Right-Click] on any data entry control in the form and select the "Display history for this Customer record…" option
- [Right-Click] on the IUD history form (not on a control on the form but on the form itself), and select 'Cus_PK' from the menu
(Thanks to Mike Potjer for bringing this to my attention.)
- resolved an "Cannot insert explicit value for identity column in table 'ERRORLOG' when IDENTITY_INSERT is set to OFF."
error that sometimes occurred when running the VMP Upsizing Wizard
(Thanks to Peter Huppelschoten for bringing this to my attention.)
- resolved an error that occurred in the XXFwIUDLog.VCX/BO_IUDLog::CreateResultCursorAlias() method when trying to display
all changes to a record in a table which had memo fields in it
(Thanks to Mike Potjer for [a] bringing this to my attention and [b] supplying the code to resolve this.)
- resolved an error in the spellchecker whereby if the editbox contains more than one line, the checker did not check
the first word of subsequent lines (i.e., lines 2, 3, 4, etc.)
(Thanks to Ric Unruh for [a] bringing this to my attention and [b] supplying the code to resolve this.)
- resolved bug in the XXFw.VCX/cusAppLibs::LoadDIMember() method that occurs under the following circumstances:
1. Add a page to a pageframe
2. Change the PageOrder of the page so that it precedes a pre-existing page.
3. Use the oLib.LoadDIMember() method to load delayed-instantiation controls on the new page.
For example, add a 4th page, which VFP names 'Page4', and set its PageOrder = 3. Now the page named 'Page3' has
.PageOrder = 4. When the user clicks on 'Page4' for the first time, the code in the LoadDIMember() method loads
the DI container correctly, but then activates 'Page3'.
(Thanks to Mike Potjer for [a] bringing this to my attention and [b] supplying the code to resolve this.)
- the XXFw.VCX/cusForms::TimeoutAllForms() method now checks the PEMSTATUS() of 'OnTimeoutReached' before the
second call to the .OnTimeoutReached() method (thus preventing a problem with forms that do not have that method)
(Thanks to Ric Unruh for bringing this to my attention.)
- now wrapping DATETIME() calls in the following methods with TRY-CATCH-ENDTRY:
- XXFwControlBehaviors.VCX/cusDTOTextbox::OwnerValid()
- XXFwControlBehaviors.VCX/cusDTOTextbox::UpdateOwnerControlSource()
this resolves errors that occurred when a bad/invalid date was entered into a date/datetime-bound textbox
(Thanks to Peter Huppelschoten for bringing this to my attention.)
- now SET-ting SAFETY OFF in the DeleteDBC procedure in XXCreateDBCWithRemoteViewsOfVMPSystemTables.Prg; this resolves
an issue that Peter Huppelschoten encountered when running a subsequent occurrence of a remote-data application
- in the XXFwNT.VCX/cusMessageServices::OpenMsgSvcTable() method, the following line:
XXLOGGER('cusMessageServices::OpenMsgSvcTable is about to RETURN .F. because the MsgSvc.DBF cannot be opened', .T.)
now displays only if the method is unsuccessful (it used to display whether the method was successful or not)
(Thanks to Mike Potjer for bringing this to my attention.)
Dec 15, 2008
=================================================
Build 02 (12/18/2008)
Build 01 (12/15/2008)
method; this "fulfills" the following comment that has been in the latter method for quite a while:
"Called from ThisForm.UpdateFormOnAdd(), this method is
called at the end of a successful ThisForm.AddAction()"
Thanks to Mike Potjer for pointing this out.
- resolved the following scenario that Mike Potjer reported on the VMP Message Board:
"if XXFwGrd.VCX/grdDataEntry::DeleteBlankRows() is called without first selecting the
grid's RecordSource, it will do nothing if the current ALIAS() does not use optimistic
table buffering. That's because the following line of code does not specify the alias
when checking the buffering, neither does the method include code prior to this condition
to explicitly set the work area to the RecordSource:
XXDTES('XXFwGrd.VCX', [OR (NOT CURSORGETPROP('Buffering'], 'grdDataEntry', 'DeleteBlankRows')"
- resolved the following scenario that Mike Potjer reported: "in the XXDTGenPopCode form, the
directory dropdown in step 4 saves a list of folders, but it doesn&'t appear to change folders
via the dropdown (listbox). Here’s how to reproduce this:
1. DO XXDTGenPopCode
2. Make sure the directory dropdown contains more than one path. If not, you may need to
select a new path, close the form, and re-run XXDTGenPopCode.
3. Using the dropdown in step 4, Select any path other than the path displayed there when the form was opened.
4. Click the [Generate] commandbutton
5. The messages that appear indicate that the file was created in the path that was displayed in the dropdown
when the form was opened, not in the path currently displayed in the dropdown.
6. Click on the ellipsis button ([...]) in step 4. The path selected in GETDIR() dialog is the path that was
displayed in the dropdown when the form was opened, not in the path currently displayed in the dropdown.
- in the XXFwNTDS.VCX/cusCBSQLConnect::MakeConnection() method, now calling the AERROR() function *before* the
SQLSETPROP() call; as a result, the error information no longer gets cleared out by the SQLSETPROP() call.
Thanks to Mike Potjer for pointing this out.
- now calling the EVALUATE() function in lieu of doing a macro substitution to make code run faster in methods of
the cusPushPopDockableWindows class (defined in this program). Thanks to Mike Yearwood for pointing this out.
- XXDTFoxCode.Prg now contains code to establish IntelliSense for the X8RegExpTest.Prg library routine;
thanks to Mike Potjer for pointing out the omission.
- resolved an "Operator/operand type mismatch." error that occurs in the txtAutoLaunchForm::Init() event-method
of the following two (2) forms:
- VMToolsOptions.SCX in the VMP VM Example Application
- NTToolsOptions.SCX in the VMP NT Example Application
when you do the following in either the VM or NT VMP Example applications:
- add the following record to the AppInfo table (??System.DBF):
- App_Item = 'InitialAutoLaunchForm'
- App_ItemDataType = 'C'
- App_ItemValue = 'FRMREPORTCATALOG,XXFwFRM.VCX'
- App_ItemDescription = 'Report Catalog'
- delete any InitialAutoLaunchForm from UserPrefs
OPEN DATABASE ??
USE ??!UserPrefs
DELETE FOR Prf_Item = 'InitialAutoLaunchForm'
- DO ??Main.Prg ... Report Catalog displays as expected
- running 'Tools | Options' triggered "Operator/operand type mismatch." error
Thanks to Andy Patrick for reporting this issue and for Mike Potjer for proposing the ultimate solution
both on the VMP Message Board.
Oct 01, 2008
=================================================
Build 01 (10/1/2008)
and then pressed [Esc] or clicked outside the resultant shortcut/context menu
(in other words, the user did not select an option from the context menu)
- resolved an issue that occurred when:
- 1) attempting to add records to a table in which the name of
the Primary Key (PK) was longer than six (6) characters and
- 2) an IUDLog INSERT (table) trigger was in place
- thanks to Randy Bosma, '[Copy]' now reads '[Duplicate]' in the following text
that appears when you click on the [Copy] commandbutton in the XXDTMsgS utility:
This option allows you to copy the current record into a different
MsgSvc.DBF table (the [Copy] button allows you to duplicate the
current record into the current MsgSvc.DBF table).
- resolved the error that occurred when the user did the following:
- [Right-Click] and select 'Display History for ... record'
- Set filter to all users
- click on [Apply filter]
(thanks to Bud Wheeler for pointing this out)
- added 'WINVISTA' to the IntelliSense for X6WinOS.Prg
- resolved several bugs in the XXFWMisc.VCX/cusDESubFormCursor::SetFieldPropsV()
method which prevented default values from being used in a sub-form view.
(thanks to Mike Potjer for pointing out the bugs and supplying the fixes)
- resolved an issue that Mike Meer discovered in the
XXFWNTDS.VCX/cusDSBehaviorSPT::FetchData() method
Aug 08, 2008
=================================================
Build 01 (8/8/2008)
EXTERNAL PROCEDURE X8ValidURL.Prg
- resolved the following scenario:
1. Modified the NTFW.VCX/ctrNTApp.SetUpGlobalToolBars()
method and uncommented the following code:
DIMENSION This.iaGlobalToolbars[1, 2]
This.iaGlobalToolbars[1] = 'tbrNTSCADONav,NTFWFrm.VCX'
DODEFAULT()
2. DO NTMain.Prg and select 'File | Invoices (NTDEInvoices1.SCX)' menu option
3. Selected the "0000000001" invoice
4. Clicked on the grid column1: 'Crisis Counseling gift certificate.'
5. Presses the “Close this form” toolbar commandbutton
6. After pressing the button, the "Lookup F2" menu pad did not disappear and
the menu wass totally blocked (it did not respond when the user clicked on it)
- resolved a form resizing issue in the XXFWFrm.VCX/ctrFormSizer::frmResize() method
- resolved the following issue in the XXFW.VCX/txtBase::SetDynamicAttributes() method: txtBase
turned the .ForeColor to red for negative values for all numeric data types except 'Y' (currency)
- resolved a problem in the XXFWMisc.VCX/frmReport::ReportForm() method whereby VFP would crash
(hard) on the following line when the developer was attempting to MODIFY a REPORT in lieu of
running it:
SET SYSMENU TO DEFAULT
- removed an extraneous txtICBase class that was in VMP_Int\ICCtrl.VCX (BaseClass of Form...)
- inspired by Mike Yearwood, replaced the following lines in the
XXFWNTDS.VCX/cusDSBehaviorSPT::SaveActionInsert() method:
LOCAL &lcField.
STORE (EVALUATE(m.lcField)) TO &lcField.
with the following lines to speed up the code:
LOCAL (m.lcField)
STORE (EVALUATE(m.lcField)) TO (m.lcField)
- per feedback from Bud Wheeler, replaced two (2) occurrences of 'm.lcDatabase' in the
SP_VMP_IUDLOG_SetIUDAlias procedure in XXFwData.Prg with 'm.tcDatabase'
Oct 13, 2007
=================================================
Build 03 (2/6/2008)
- resolved the following issue (which affected other n-Tier forms [ultimately] based on the XXFWFrm.VCX/frmDEGridNav2Pages
class):
- when you do the following:
- fire up the NT Example Application development environment
- DO FORM NTDECusC1.SCX
- click the [Add] commandbutton
- enter Customer Code and Name
- select the Notes tab (4th page)
- click the [Cancel] commandbutton
the data entry control (editbox) on the Notes tab (4th page) was blank and disabled because the updateable cursor is EOF()
- fixed the following bug: when the IncludeLoginCancelCommandButtons AppConfig item was set to .T., pressing [Enter] in the
password textbox on the last password attempt triggered an "Unable to login the login in V_LoginHistoryOneUser" error.
- thanks to Joan Mir, corrected the Spanish equivalents of the following phrases:
- "Display history for field"
- "Display history for record"
and ensured that the above two (2) shortcut/context menu options work when a VMP application is run in Spanish (via INTL)
Build 02 (11/7/2007)
release any locks so that it does not report that you have the record locked the next time you run the form
- the XXFWNTBO.VCX/ctrBusinessObject::DeleteAction() method now checks the return value when it calls
the XXFWNTBO.VCX/ctrBusinessObject::ExecuteChildBOMethod() method
- corrected a bug in the XXFWSemaphoreLock.VCX/BO_SemaphoreLock::SLock() method
- eliminated the "Too many arguments." error that occurred in X7FieldList.Prg when running in VFP 8
- fixed the following bug: when the IncludeLoginCancelCommandButtons AppConfig item was set to .T., after
typing only the user id and before passing to the password textbox, clicking on the [Login] commandbutton
allowed you to log in without entering a password.
Build 01 (10/13/2007)
event-method that did not take the VMP developer to the correct bug fixes page (after VMP
discovered that the developer was not using the very latest version of VMP)

- eliminated the "Property DOCKPOSITION is not found." error that occurred in:
- the XXFW.VCX/frmBase::Destroy() event-method
- the XXFW.VCX/cusForms::ReleaseAllForms() method
when a VMP form running in VFP 8 was closed
- now preventing the following obscure (yet possible) scenarios:
- Scenario 1:
-------------------

- resolved an "OLE error code 0x800200005: Type mismatch." that error occurred in the XXFW.VCX/tbrBase::ORCleanupAllMembers()
method when that method attempted to set an ActiveX control's .Font property to .NULL.
- in the XXFWNTDP.VCX/cusDataPackagerXML::DataToCursorIsNotDiffGram() method:
- resolved an error that occurred when either:
(a) the PK field was not specified or
(b) a wrong name was specified for the PK field

records: the primary key field contained the same value for *ALL* records added to the cursor
- in the XXFWNT.VCX/cusMessageServices::GetMessageText() method:
- resolved an error that occurred when the iaMessages array of the message package contained a key
(rather than a data object)
- resolved an error that occurred when an invalid message package was passed
Dec 08, 2006 build
=================================================
Build 06 (3/31/2007)
- resolved a bug that occurred in the XXFW.VCX/frmData::SaveMessageOnFailure() method when an n-tier rule failed
- resolved a bug in the XXFWNT.VCX/cusMessagePackage::GetSpecificTableupdateFailureKey() method that occurred
in the following scenario:
- no AutoInc
- no field .Caption/s
- user got the following error:
Uniqueness of index "name" is violated (Error 1884)
Build 05 (2/17/2007)
so that it now reads the latest/current value of 'TextFactor' from the AppInfo table
- eliminated the "Property value is out of bounds." error that occurred when, in VFP 8,
you
- now RETURN-ing .F. in the XXFWControlBehaviors.VCX/cusDTOTextbox::OwnerKeyPress() method
if the following expression evaluates to .F.:
IF (This.icType = 'D') AND (NOT VARTYPE(toTextbox.Value) = 'D')
- in the XXFW.VCX/txtBase::KeyPress() event-method, now resetting the .SelStart and .SelLength

Build 04 (12/22/2006)
Build 03 (12/21/2006)
run a form standalone
- eliminated a "Data type mismatch." error that can occur in the following methods under certain circumstances:
- XXFWComp.VCX/ctrPicklistValid::SaveControlValues()
- XXFWMisc.VCX/ctrSelCriteria::SaveControlValues()
- eliminated the following problem in the XXFWNTDS.VCX/ctrDataSource::FetchFieldsForOnePK() method; if you passed an asterisk ("*")
as the tcFieldList parameter to return all fields, then you could not access the Primary Key (PK) field by its name
Build 02 (12/16/2006)
- added code to the XXFW.VCX/pgfBase::PageCount_Assign() method that replicates code in the txtBase::ToolTipText_Assign() method

Build 01 (12/8/2006)
- resolved error in the XXFWComp.VCX/ctrPicklistValid::OnPicklistvalidTextboxInteractiveChange() method that occurs if there is no
icAlternateLookupAlias (because there is no value to lookup)
- in both the XXFW.VCX/ctrBase::GetFirstControl() and XXFW.VCX/pgfBase::GetFirstControl() methods, resolved case mismatch issues and
why the methods did not always correctly return the first control
- resolved a bug in the XXTools.VCX/frsXXDTSearch::StringFoundIn() method whereby when "Exclude comments?" is checked, then a line
(a) following a comment line with an embedded semi-colon (i.e., a comment that contains, but does not end with, a semi-colon)
(b) following a line that is part of a continued comment and/or itself ends with a semi-colon
was not getting displayed in the results of the (XXDTSearch) search
- resolved a bug in the XXFWNTBR.VCX/cusRule::Init() event-method: a rule inheriting from XXFWNTBR.VCX/cusRule is allowed to be instan-
tiated to a property, but caused an error and crashed an application if you attempted to instantiate it as a member of a non-tier class
Sep 22, 2006 build
=================================================
Build 02 (9/29/2006)
- eliminated the "Command contains unrecognized phrase/keyword." error that occurred in the XXFWSemaphoreLock.VCX/BO_SemaphoreLock::CreateFreeTable()

EventLog form when running in VFP 8
Build 01 (9/22/2006)
when the user establishes a sound via the Windows Control Panel for 'Question'.
- in response to the above, no longer passing the last (5th) parameter when calling X3WinMsg.Prg from X3MsgSvc.Prg
- the XXFWUtil.VCX/cusSettings::LoadPropertiesFromDataSource() method did not refresh (requery) the remote view if a value
in that view had been modified on the back-end; it now does.
- resolved the "Database 'VM' is not open" error." that occurred upon DO-ing RDMain (in the Remote Data application)
- modified the ReleaseAppObjects procedure in this program (XXFWMain.Prg) to SQLDisconnect() one active connection at a time to
eliminate/prevent application from crashing (fatal error) when trying to close all open connection handles via SQLDisconnect(0)
- corrected an issue with XXDTSearch that prevented it from including a line in the search results when, prior to the line,
there was a comment that was continued on at least one other line
- resolved error that occurred in the XXFWFrm.VCX/ctrFormSizer::frmResize() method when, for example, you have NODEFAULT-ed
the SetSizerInfo() method for a pageframe
- resolved error that occurred in XXFWData.Prg when, in XXWBAppSetup (the Application Setup Wizard), a VMP developer specifies to not
use default VMP naming conventions and then specifies a "main DATABASE name" that does *not* match the 2-character table name prefix
- resolved "double text" issue with cusHyperlinkTextbox when the (corresponding) textbox's BorderStyle = 0 (None)
- resolved an issue in the XXFWFrm.VCX/frmMover::Init() event-method that occurred when .ioCallingForm is omitted from the parameter object
- resolved a "Syntax Error" that occurred in the XXFWComp.VCX/ctrMover::AddAllAction() method when the .RowSource is an expression that
contains one (1) or more periods and the user clicked on the [Add All] commandbutton
Jul 08, 2006 build
=================================================
Build 02 (7/11/2006)
- when [New...] was clicked for a form (on the Documents tab/page) of a Project Manager (to which a VMP Project Hook is attached);
if [Esc]ape was then pressed in the resultant XXWBNewForm, a "Function argument value, type or count is invalid." error occurred
- toolbars (e.g., Standard) not getting restored after running a VMP form/application
-
- resolved the fact that the filter was not being restored properly in the XXFWNTDS.VCX/ctrDataSource::Validate() method
Build 01 (Initial Build)
being USED() and if the text of the filename passed to the method (m.lcTable) was anything other than all upper case,
a line of code was incorrectly deciding that it does not match the contained table name.
- resolved bug in X8ShellExecute.PRG that was due to the VFP limitation that the JUSTEXT() function cannot handle strings
that contain more than 259 characters
- resolved the following issue in the XXFW.VCX/frmBase::CheckRequiredFields() method: if the ControlSource is 'This.Parent.
(or anything beyond that), everything after 'This.Parent' gets truncated, and you get an error later because m.lcControlSource
EVALUATE()s to an object, rather than a value
- in the XXFWFrm.VCX/ctrFormSizer::SizeMenu() method, no longer allowing the form to "run off" the right edge as well as the bottom

- replaced 'GOTO BOTTOM' in the XXFWGrd.VCX/grdDataEntry::DeleteCurrentRow() method with the following code:
GOTO BOTTOM IN (This.RecordSource)
- resolved error [in the frmData::DeleteAction() method] that occurred when you clicked on [Delete] in the Event Log
- corrected the ASCAN() call in XXWBBODS.Prg to enable the following: in the same (middle-tier) .VCX,
you can now create a BO whose name is a subset of the name of another BO in the same class library
- replaced 'SHOW WINDOW Properties BOTTOM' in XXBuilder.Prg with 'SHOW WINDOW Properties SAME'
- in the NTDECusInvLin1 form in the NT Example application, resolved the fact that -- when you clicked on
the [Add Inv] commandbutton on the Invoices tab on a Customer that has no Invoices (e.g., a new Customer) --
the following message displayed:
"Please enter all the required Invoice fields before adding another Invoice."
and no invoice was created (added).
- modified the FetchData(), FetchList() and FetchDataPost() methods of the XXFWNTDS.VCX/ctrDataSource class
so that VMP now correctly restores index tags when:
- user preferences are in effect and
- the sort order is DESCENDING
This modification automatically corrects the grid behavior on the "Contact People" tab of the following
NT Example application forms: NTDECusC1, NTDECusC2, NTDECusC2a, NTDECusC4, NTDECusC5, NTDECusC6 and NTDECusC8.
- resolved the following issue (in Windows XP Pro): if you go to Display Properties, the Appearance tab, and click
the Effects button, there is a checkbox for "Use the following method to smooth edges of screen fonts:", and
underneath is a combobox with the options Standard and ClearType. If the checkbox is checked and ClearType is selected,
labels with .BackStyle property set to 0-Transparent appear bold upon switching between tabs in a pageframe (e.g., the
zReadMe label on VM/NT Example Application forms).
- in X3MsgSvc.Prg, now restoring the work area to the one that was selected when the program was called
- corrected the ctrPVStateProvince_DisplayCountry.lblDisplay::Refresh() method so that it no longer erroneously displays
"Canada" as the lblDisplay.Caption in the following forms in the NT example application: NTDECty1, NTDECty2 and NTDECty2a.
- fixed the following bug in NTDECusC6.VCX/frmNTDECusC6WizardSubform:
- either: (1) fire up the VM NT Example Application and, from the 'Other | Wizard forms' sub-menu,
select the "Customers + Contacts/wizard subform (NTDECusC6.SCX)" option
or (2) run the following from the Command Window:
DO FORM NTDECusC6.SCX
- go to the "Contact People" tab
- click [Update]
- click [Next] three (3) times
- triggered an ioBOMgr error
- solved a bug in the XXFWCtrl.VCX/txtPicklistValid::SetPicklistFormParameters() method by doing the following:
- commented out code in that method
- moved code from the ProcessNewValue() method to the Refresh() method
- the XXFW.VCX/ctrBase::SetControlSourceProxyValue() method now checks if the form has an EditAction() method before calling that method
- corrected the comment for the 2nd parameter (tlPack) of the XXFWLibs.VCX/cusDBCSvc::Reindex() method
- immediately below the 'THIS.WindowType = 1' assignments in the following methods of the XXFW.VCX/frmData class:
- Init() event-method
- SetupDESubform method
inserted the following comments:
*----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
* N.B. If you get a "Property WINDOWTYPE is read-only." error when VFP attempts to
* execute the above assignment, it may very well be due to the fact that the
* form's .Visible property is explicitly set to .T. in the Property Sheet.
* ResetToDefault-ing the form's .Visible property back to its default of .T.
* solves the problem.
*----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
