Jan, the scrolling region will use scroll bars if the limit of visible area is exceeded on your form. I've never hit a situation where I ran out of memory. Going to a specific row can be done.

Hate to ask this but I've pretty much figured out that I need to use a scrolling region in one particular instance. I haven't worked with scrolling regions in years.
Is there a limit to how many rows can be displayed?
Can we force going to a specific row?

    Dan,

    You can use your existing version of R:BASE eXtreme 9.5 (64) to
    convert R:BASE 7.6 database.

    Use the TURBO command to convert the database.

    Here's how:

    If there is no OWNER

    01. Launch R:BASE eXtreme 9.5 (64)
    02. Navigate to your database directory using the "Change Current
    Folder" button (bottom left corner, folder icon with a green arrow)
    03. Go to the R> Prompt window (third button from the left on the
    Tool Bar, or press [Ctrl]+[R])
    04. At the R> Prompt, type: SET MULTI OFF , then press [Enter]
    05. At the R> Prompt, type: SET STATICDB OFF , then press [Enter]
    06. At the R> Prompt, type: TURBO DBNAME , then press [Enter]
    07. At the R> Prompt, type: CONNECT DBNAME , then press [Enter]

    If there is an Owner

    01. Launch R:BASE eXtreme 9.5 (64)
    02. Navigate to your database directory using the "Change Current
    Folder" button (bottom left corner, folder icon with a green arrow)
    03. Go to the R> Prompt window (third button from the left on the
    Tool Bar, or press [Ctrl]+[R])
    04. At the R> Prompt, type: SET MULTI OFF , then press [Enter]
    05. At the R> Prompt, type: SET STATICDB OFF , then press [Enter]
    06. At the R> Prompt, type: TURBO DBNAME IDENTIFIED BY ownername ,
    then press [Enter]
    07. At the R> Prompt, type: CONNECT DBNAME , then press [Enter]

    Complete Database Rebuild

    In addition to the above conversion steps, the following steps are
    required to completely rebuild the database. These steps will be
    performed in R:BASE eXtreme.

    01. Connect to the database and open the R> Prompt.
    02. Check the IDQUOTE settings of connected database.

         At the R> Prompt, type:
         SHOW CHARACTERS
         Notice the last parameter, IDQUOTES
         If IDQUOTES is set to NULL, you'll need to change NULL to the
    appropriate character, such as ` (reversed quote) as following:
         SET IDQUOTES= `

    03. Unload the entire database. Use the SET USER command below if an
    OWNER name exists.

         At the R> Prompt, type:
         SET NULL -0-
         SET USER ownername
         OUTPUT filename.ALL
         UNLOAD ALL
         OUTPUT SCREEN
         This process will create two files (filename.ALL and
    filename.LOB)

    04. Disconnect the database.
         At the R> Prompt, type:
         DISCONNECT

    05. Now rename the database that was just unloaded in Steps 1-3.
         Review the list of Databases in the R:BASE eXtreme Database
    Explorer, and select the "Rename" option.
         Enter a new name for the database.

    06. Finally, use R:BASE to rebuild the database by running the
    .ALL file.

         At the R:BASE eXtreme R> Prompt type:

         RUN filename.ALL

         These steps will build a clean database!

    That's all there is to it!

    Very Best R:egards,

    Razzak.
