Re: [NF] Microsoft wrongly blocking lots of emails

2022-01-07 Thread MB Software Solutions, LLC
I think the problems started after 25 Dec but could be wrong. I'd throw 
a few bucks on the "I bet you're right" square.   ;-)


Still no solution from M$ yet...7 days later.  That's absolutely 
INSANE.  The Planet's LARGEST IT COMPANY (or damn near) and this still 
isn't resolved.  My IT guy says he's been dealing with several 
not-very-good-at-all-speaking-English persons and it seems like each 
time he has to start over...their communication skills are abysmal.


Don't you love this global village?

Could you show us what relevant entries you have in the registry - for as

Paul,

I'm not sure why you're having to go to such lengths.  When I double-click a
PJX or PJT file in Windows Explorer, the project automatically opens up in
the project manager.

Subject: Problem trying to run a Powershell script as an Explorer shell
command (Fox related)

Hi all

 

I have been toying on and off over several years with a method of opening
VFP with a MODIFY command when double-clicking a file in Explorer.  For
example, double-clicking on a PJX in Explorer should open VFP with the
command MODIFY PROJECT  NOWAIT.

 

I am almost there, maybe.  At the moment everything is in C:\Temp

 

ConFig.FPW contains

Command = C:\Temp\FoxOpen.PRG 

*FoxOpen.PRG is constructed on-the fly by a PowerShell script TEST.PS1 as
follows:

 

TEST.PS1

Param([string]$a)

$file=Get-Item "$a"

$Extension = $file.Extension.ToUpper()

$Command = ""

switch ($Extension)

{

.PJX

{

$Command = "Modify Project '"+ $a + "' NOWAIT"

}

   # Other cases follow

}

Set-Content -Path C:\Temp\FoxOpen.PRG -Value $Command

& "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual FoxPro 9\vfp9.exe"
-CC:\Temp\Config.FPW

 

I have tested this in a PowerShell console like this

PS C:\Temp> C:\Temp\Test.PS1  where  is a fully qualified
path to a PJX, enclosed in single quotes

 

I have also tested in a COMMAND window like this

C:\Temp> PowerShell C:\Temp\Test.PS1  again where  is a
fully qualified path to a PJX, enclosed in single quotes

 

So far, so good.  Now for how to implement the shell command.  My registry
settings are as follows:

 

Computer\HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT

PJXFile  (Default)  REG-SZ Project (FoxPro)

Shell  (Default)  REG_SZ (value not set)

Modify project  (Default) REG_SZ (value not
set)

Command   (Default)
REG_SZ "POWERSHELL C:\Temp\Test1.PS1" "%1"

 

However, double-clicking on a PJX results in:

Windows cannot access the specified device, path or file. You may not have
the appropriate permissions to access the item.

 

It seems as if I am nearly there, so any suggestions will be very gratefully
received.  Many thanks

 

Paul Newton

Embedded quotes. 

I'm grabbing at straws here.
The original entry was this:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual FoxPro 9\vfp9.exe" -SHELLOPEN "%1"


Me, I had created config.fpw files for each of my projects that have a

my project files.

I've not gotten myself into PowerShell. I'm so used to a command prompt from

However, double-clicking on a PJX results in:

Windows cannot access the specified device, path or file. You may not have

It seems as if I am nearly there, so any suggestions will be very gratefully
received.  Many thanks

You may need the fully qualified path to the PowerShell executable for it to
work.

HTH,

Subject: Problem trying to run a Powershell script as an Explorer shell
command (Fox related)

Hi all

 

I have been toying on and off over several years with a method of opening
VFP with a MODIFY command when double-clicking a file in Explorer.  For
example, double-clicking on a PJX in Explorer should open VFP with the
command MODIFY PROJECT  NOWAIT.

 

I am almost there, maybe.  At the moment everything is in C:\Temp

 

ConFig.FPW contains

Command = C:\Temp\FoxOpen.PRG 

*FoxOpen.PRG is constructed on-the fly by a PowerShell script TEST.PS1 as
follows:

 

TEST.PS1

Param([string]$a)

$file=Get-Item "$a"

$Extension = $file.Extension.ToUpper()

$Command = ""

switch ($Extension)

{

.PJX

{

$Command = "Modify Project '"+ $a + "' NOWAIT"

}

   # Other cases follow

}

Set-Content -Path C:\Temp\FoxOpen.PRG -Value $Command

& "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual FoxPro 9\vfp9.exe"
-CC:\Temp\Config.FPW

 

I have tested this in a PowerShell console like this

PS C:\Temp> C:\Temp\Test.PS1  where  is a fully qualified
path to a PJX, enclosed in single quotes

 

I have also tested in a COMMAND window like this

C:\Temp> PowerShell C:\Temp\Test.PS1  again where  is a
fully qualified path to a PJX, enclosed in single quotes

 

So far, so good.  Now for how to implement the shell command.  My registry
settings are as follows:

 

Computer\HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT

PJXFile  (Default)  REG-SZ Project (FoxPro)

Shell  (Default)  REG_SZ (value not set)

Modify project  (Default) REG_SZ (value not
set)

Command   (Default)
REG_SZ "POWERSHELL C:\Temp\Test1.PS1" "%1"

 

However, double-clicking on a PJX results in:

Windows cannot access the specified device, path or file. You may not have
the appropriate permissions to access the item.

 

It seems as if I am nearly there, so any suggestions will be very gratefully
received.  Many thanks
