Mike - U & the EULA Thing - thanks for a Chuckle! RK - I hear both of you - why bother w/7 when we have 9. The idiot Next to me bends the ear of my Boss and WHINES Big Time - bitching that things work differently in VFP9, and we would need to change a BUNCH of stuff - which already work in 7. Personally - I think he's talking out his Buttocks. I know the SQL stuff is different - and you simply need to change that EngineBehaviour thingy to 70 - and all is well with that. Other than that - there should be nothing really from making a VFP7 app run under VFP9 - right?
Further thoughts on Resizer... Been playing with it for last hour or so. If you click OFF the Grid - THEN Size up the Window - then it Stops that Crazy Font thing. Its like it GET Confused - if you don't - and keeps trying to oversize the Active Cell Font. So - a possible work around would be to take Focus OFF the Grid - During the Resize - then put it BACK to the Grid. But, can it be put back onto the Same Cell Automatically??? I think this may work - depending on the answer to the last Q... -K- -----Original Message----- From: ProfoxTech [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Richard Kaye Sent: Wednesday, March 27, 2013 4:13 PM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: MWResize implementation There were so many improvements to the grid control alone in VFP 9 that I would run to get out of 7. Not to mention much better support for more current versions of Windoze. I'm still poking at the active cell font thing. If I come up with any useful solutions I will post here. -- rk -----Original Message----- From: ProfoxTech [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Kurt Sent: Wednesday, March 27, 2013 4:01 PM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: MWResize implementation Hey there RK, Yes - I've been starting to use this a Lot - both in this small system we have (that my Boss wants to run on a Tablet) - and also as part of the Re-Write of this OLD BIG system we have (which currently runs under Windows but the screens are code running in windows that look like DOS w/White Text on Blue background). This old system, for the time being - was being re-written under VFP7. However, the small App that can also run on a Tablet - is being updated & compiled under VFP9 - because of a Strange Crashing that happens on the Tablet - that was resolved simply by compiling the App & running under VFP9 instead of 7. So - after reading your thoughts below - I started to take a 2nd look at the implementation of this Class - and whether its working right. After a bunch of tests - I noticed some of the problems you mentioned. On one screen (in the BIGGer App running under VFP7) - the Font Wierdness on the Active Cell of a Grid was NOT happening. But, then I played around with the App for the Tablet - and sure enough I saw that problem with the Font in the Active Cell in the Grid. Very strange indeed. Even as I was writing thing - I started thinking of a possible work around for this problem. If I come up with anything - I will be sure to post my results here. I noticed another thing. The Grids in the BIG App (under VFP7) did NOT respond the same way as the Grids in that Smaller App (VFP9). Then I took at look at the Grids on each - and I saw that the VFP9 had that Anchor property - which does NOT Exist under VFP7. Of course, until it was mentioned around here - I never really played with that property. But, it seems - with this Resizer stuff - that Anchor MUST come into play... Does this mean that in order for the ReSizer stuff to work right - that I MUST Get Out of VFP7 - and stick w/VFP9??? -K- [excessive quoting removed by server] _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://mail.leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://mail.leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/7989C9F8DB7F4EB5A12ACF8AC7D1A161@Programming2 ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
