As for the question on RList you are about to be confused and/or very happy. However the learning curve is fun.
1. Forget DOS days 2. Be happy it is 2009 and you have RList To answer your question: Create a form, place an icon on it, write your eep (print report ..... where ........) into that icon-image and run that form. In simple terms. I recommend reviewing the RList and a lot of Razzak's examples. I plugged along for about 3 months and then went to RSchool OMG! Well worth the time. It was then you find out what all the talk was about. I had another RBase user help me (and still does) in the beginning conversion from DOS thinking. The simple approach is you write code. It is far much more powerful then the application designer (in my opinion & .02) and you can make your code swim uphill so to speak. Sincerely, Paul Dewey Ps A plug in for Bernard Lis, Thank you for the continued support and assistance with coding STILL to this DAY! And the jokes. I was so confused at first. Yes Razzak, John, Bill..... - I know, I am still confused. -------- Original Message -------- Subject: Basic problem Date: Tue, 10 Feb 2009 15:10:01 -0500 From: William Brake <[email protected]> Reply-To: [email protected] Organization: Swiss Valley Associates, Inc. To: RBASE-L Mailing List <[email protected]> I am a 1980's & 1990's user of RBase for Dos. Version 3.5. Have been away from this for a number of years and would like to use "R:Base 7.6 for Windows" for some simple databases. I am getting along mostly with everything except the "application designer". So I have a table with a date column. I want to print a report "where" all records between a user entered "begindate" and "enddate" are printed. I used to use custom files in RBase for Dos for this. How do I do it now? Thanks, Bill
