Hi Ken, An interesting thought! I've used it without parentheses for years and it's never bitten me on the bum - perhaps this is the first time :-) I'll start using the brackets. John John Weller 01380 723235 07976 393631 > -Original Message- > From: ProfoxTech

I've seen it fail both ways. In fact, I've seen projects fail all 3 ways. With VFP devs only, with New language devs only and with a mix of devs from both sides. Some failures have been more spectacular than others. And more expensive. I've only been involved with 1 project like that, That

ThisForm.pgfIncExp.ActivePage = This.Value ThisForm.Refresh Probably already thought of but the proper syntax of the command is: ThisForm.Refresh() (ie, with parentheses) Such code would run semi-reliably without the parens in VFP 6 but less so in later versions. I have had a few

2017-10-13 Thread Tracy Pearson
John, Another way to handle this would be code in two places. First no code here. Set the ControlSource to the ActivePage property. Then in any control on the pages, add code to the UIENABLE event, when lEnable is true, THIS.Parent.Refresh() We actually added to the PageFrame subclass, during

2017-10-13 Thread Dave Crozier
John, That implies that you have some code in the refresh event of the form as the method code is working fine (As can be shown in the RaiseEvent()). Remember that even a single space in the Refresh method effectively invalidates the standard refresh code. It is very easy to have a single space

Thanks Dave. I've replaced the line with RaiseEvent(Thisform, "Refresh") and it works fine. I just need to wait for it to fail again :-) I'd not heard of RaiseEvent before, what can I expect to happen when it fails again? I'm certain I haven't any subclassing although all my controls are

John, Just try and use RaiseEvent(Thisform, "Refresh") I know it shouldn't cause any problem but it will allow you to trace into it. Sure you haven't got any form subclassing code somewhere? Dave -Original Message- From: ProFox [mailto:profox-boun...@leafe.com] On Behalf Of

I have been dragged out of retirement to write a simple accounts package for a local charity and am realising how much I have forgotten. The main data entry screen has the usual clutch of controls - a grid, textboxes, combos, etc. All the controls are on the form and as I set each one up I run
