Re: Foxweb?
I am familiar with a company (hosting) that has been using Foxweb for many years to host VFP on 10's of websites. Maybe even a couple of hundred. It worked and still works very well with a couple of problems that are - in my opinion - user made. They run out of channels which appears to be due to licensing / configuration. The other issue is index does not match database. which is due to the prg not working perfectly in a multi-user environment. They would occasionally get a foxweb.dll not found. In my opinion these would not be issues with one site running foxweb - which sounds like what you are trying to do.

Plus, this solution is only needed for about 6 months as all data is being moved to an SQL backend server.

Re: EDI, Hex VFP - Oh My...
Most of the internet is speaking Unicode UTF-8 or -16 these days. ASCII is really only defined for the first 128 characters (7-bit) and the 'extended ASCII character set' from 128 to 255 is different from different vendors; IBM implemented the upper characters of foreign entities and line-and-box characters one way, Microsoft another, and so forth. Microsoft uses an ANSI character set. DOS implemented code pages as a kludge. Try some of those characters in FoxFont and in Arial and you'll see the difference. So, that's the long way of saying that the reason you can't cut and paste from email (ANSI or Unicode) into VFP is that the two are speaking incompatible dialects. So, your vendor, in choosing an upper 8-bit character, is implementing a non-standard EDI format which I can't even type without lol.

Re: Foxweb?
Sort of... I have a Windows XP machine that I abuse for such things. I installed Apache 2.2 on it. Then the latest Foxweb download. Also using VFP 9. The dbf files are on another machine (a Linux box running Samba) that is local to the WinXP box. That Linux box is also running MySQL, but that's not part of the pie in this situation. While I have used PHP a lot with web pages (on standard websites), I'm not using PHP with this FoxWeb situation. My experience with PHP+DBF files is that PHP will open DBFs, but has absolutely no regard for file and/or record locking and I've heard rumors of index files getting out of whack if you use PHP to update DBF files. So, I've never put any code into use that accessed DBFs from PHP code. Not even just reading a DBF. I played briefly with PHP on a Windows box and it worked, but I doubt I spent more than 15 minutes with it as I prefer to test it on the LAMP box it will be used on. For FoxWeb, I'm testing with the above WinXP machine responding to a VFP9 app on my Win7 Pro development system. I have a table of sales records that has 500,000+ records and the response times are outstanding. For example, I searched for all records containing a serial number containing 123 (serial numbers are text strings, alpha+numeric, from 5 to 20 length, not unique.) I got back a response string containing three fields (6 digit document number, 8 digit customer number, serial number) for 15,000 records in about 5 seconds. I don't think I'm using any ODBC (except for the connection to the MySQL server from VFP9). The FoxWeb connection to the Apache server uses CGI and was drop-dead easy to set up. The FoxWeb documentation requires careful reading (and re-reading), and I had to search for some errors on their support Forum, but once I grokked the configuration concept FoxWeb uses, it began working like a charm. For example, FoxWeb defaults to specifying a script folder where FoxWeb will look for scripts over in the Windows User area. But Apache prefers (and the FoxWeb docs point out) that all CGI files are in a sub folder below the folder Apache manages for all websites. But, after you get FoxWeb set to find the scripts where it should, all is well. One nice part of using FoxWeb is that they provide an Error Log panel with lots of very helpful logging info. Probably the toughest part of using Fox with a web server is that if you don't get the response you expect, your debugging tools are pretty limited. My comment about FoxWeb use reminding me of PHP+HTML is that the FoxWeb code (VFP code) is inserted in what is essentially an HTML file (with FWX extension) using delimeters of % foxcode here %. In between those delimeters, any Foxcode goes...even comments using * and . The one gotcha I think I've discovered is that you have to use to set off strings, not ', and FoxWeb seems to prefer nice spaces. nVar-nVar2=nVar3 may not produce what you want...but nVar - nVar2 = nVar3 will probably work. Unfortunately, due to years of habit, I write code with no extra spaces. Of course, this is all being done on a local area network (1GB), so it won't be as snappy on the Internet. But the same routine with a fat client (VFP9) accessing the same tables over the Internet (no FoxWeb) took 10 minutes, with Windows 7 complaining that the application had stopped responding (screen turned milky white). Not surprising with the amount of bits that had to be sucked down the pipe! The only time I've found using DBFs across the Internet acceptable is when the files are kept very small...like below 4k. But the best part of FoxWeb for me so far is that with probably 3 or 4 hours invested from the moment I hit their web page for the first time, I've removed a huge obstacle for my app, even if the solution is only used for a few months. Hope this helps. Mike Original Message Subject: Re: Foxweb?

Fred - I was also looking over your response - and in particular when you wrote: string to number: VAL(0x5F) or EVALUATE(0x5F) - 95 Then it dawned on me - and somebody should have smacked me in the head on that one. Since, they gave me a Hex number, I should simply have converted it into a Decimal number - and any programmer with even a Half a Brain should know how to convert it - and then use that decimal number with the CHR() function to give me what I needed. Of course, your command to convert the Hex # into a Dec. # also does the job. Although, it should be more fun to actually convert the number on my own. Actually - about 1.5 years ago, when my son was 9 - one evening I started telling him about Binary and Hexadecimal number systems, and showing him how to convert numbers between Hex Dec, or Bin Dec - and then even showed him how to do Hex or Bin Math Addition. He loved it - and for days after - would beg me to give him math problems based upon Hex or Bin! OK - back to work for me...

Most of the internet is speaking Unicode UTF-8 or -16 these days. ASCII is really only defined for the first 128 characters (7-bit) and the 'extended ASCII character set' from 128 to 255 is different from different vendors; IBM implemented the upper characters of foreign entities and line-and-box characters one way, Microsoft another, and so forth. Microsoft uses an ANSI character set. DOS implemented code pages as a kludge. Try some of those characters in FoxFont and in Arial and you'll see the difference. So, that's the long way of saying that the reason you can't cut and paste from email (ANSI or Unicode) into VFP is that the two are speaking incompatible dialects.

Re: EDI, Hex VFP - Oh My...
All Ansi formats that begin with ISA have the first record 106 characters in length. The separators are defined by the receiver so you (the submitter) must use those values or the receiver may refuse or be unable to read your transmissions. In that first record, you can look at positions 104, 105, 106 to get the separators that are used (if you have a sample transmission that you know the receiver accepted.) position 104 = Element separator position 105 = Sub-element separator position 106 = Segment terminator This is easy to remember because the segment terminator terminates the 1st record. All other records are variable length. Warning: I have seen documents that use control codes like CR and LF and others so your document might not be easy to read. HIPAA is supposed to make all healthcare claims standardized so you won't see control codes anymore. The record (segment) that begins with ST tells you the name of the transaction set: ST|837 is a provider healthcare claim sent to a payer. - Original Message - From: Kurt Wendt kurtwe...@waitex.com To: profox@leafe.com Sent: Thursday, August 16, 2012 11:34 AM Subject: RE: EDI, Hex VFP - Oh My...

Yes, you usually find out you need them when you compile the .exe, but they're really needed because of the non-modal form, not because of the .exe.

I must be missing something but I don't have access to my other tried
true scripts on my personal dev laptop. I'm using Inno Script Studio
here
at the day gig instead of ISTool like I do for MBSS stuff.
Can you see what I'm missing to make the it appear in the Start/All
Programs section? Here's my script:
Mike,
In the [Icons] section, you need to also put an icon in the {group}.

Re: Query taking 4 minutes...ugh
Store the AddBS() function and the cClaimsTable reference to variables, then use those variables in the SELECT statement. You're evaluating each expression with every row.

There's no WHERE clause so it's not optimizable. But is there a better way? My current plan now is to create logic that extracts the provnums into a separate table and just query that. That makes complete sense to me. (These tables are basically input files from a vendor, with the provnum built in and not sent in a separate lookup table.)
