Hi All
When you right click on a file on the Windows Desktop one of the options is
to select Properties. How can I invoke the same Properties Window from
inside my app?
Thanks

Yes, Nello Sestini emailed me and said that he'd
received an infected message from me. Damn virus is difficult to purge as it
closes down all the major virus programs. I downloaded Symantic's FxBgBear.EXE
from their site and then tried to run it. It kept freezing. I then closed down,
Sounds you want java packages, or namespaces as provided by Delphi.NET/.NET

Hi All,
Has anyone faced following situation? Put a breakpoint on a line inside a
form, while integrated debugger stops on that line, it display the form. In
Delphi, it displays the source code.
Thanks in advance

Are you wanting to, programmatically, view the properties window or modify
the properties that are displayed in the window ?

Hi all
I have some forms from D6 which I need to load into D4 - they have no
components on them that are not avaailable in D4. I note that the D6 .frm
files are text based while the D4 ones are binary streams - anyone know of a
way to either translate them or otherwise load them into D4 ?
Go into Environment options in D6, choose the designer tab, uncheck New
forms as text.
The help on this says:
Toggles the format in which form files are saved. The form files in your
project can be saved in one of two formats: binary or text. Text files can
be modified more easily by other
You could maybe try right-clicking the form in D6, and clearing the
checkmark beside the Text DFM option, although whether this will produce a
DFM which D4 will read, I don't know.
Alternatively, select everything on the form in D6, copy it to the
clipboard, paste it into a blank form in D4...
Thanks for the quick responses - I'll get the forms in binary.

The following code shows you how to do this conversion using Delphi's
internal utility routines.

It probably depends on when you last did a LiveUpdate, since this is a

This is what you want. The following is some asp script to show all the
server/browser variables. The item you need is HTTP_USER_AGENT
And you will get something back like this -
Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.5; Windows NT 5.0; T312461)
Which tells you I am running MS Internet explorer 5.5.

Ummm, I've thought hard about this and I have no idea what you mean by ODBC
setting. Perhaps you mean a DSN? or do you mean you want to extract this
information from a connection or
um... any way of doing it without using asp? I run my app on Apache and i
dont think i can use asp.
Maybe i need to use javascript... ??

You can, but that is client side Javascript or DHTML ...
I think Tracy is after server side. You just need access to the
HTTP_USER_AGENT variable provided by the browser ...

The only problem here being that just the published properties will be
cloned, no internal state variables.

Everyone seems to be saying that Delphi doesn't have built in cloning.
This is not quite true. The standard way is to override Assign, or
AssignTo method derived inside TPersistent. All you need to do is
override this in each sub-class. There are many dozens of examples
through the VCL code. If

If you need to copy the internals of an object then it would
reflect badly on your objects design wouldn't it?

Nope, it means that its encapsulated (or whatever the word is and how its
spelt) and only revealing stuff that needs to be revealed - and it might
only be in the public section rather than the published section; data hiding

try putting the TMemo on a TPanel and disable the Panel
