Re: DC_IsAppRunning() and CRT window

Here is another way to do this: RunShell('/C TaskList.Exe /V /FO CSV > tasklist.csv' ) aTasks := DC_Csv2Array('tasklist.csv') nFound := AScan(aTasks,{|a|a[1]=='RUNAPP.EXE'}) nFound := AScan(aTasks,{|a|a[1]=='RUNAPP.EXE'},nFound+1) IF nFound > 0 Confirmbox(,"PROGRAM HAS ALREADY STARTED" + chr(13)+; "...

Re: VisualdBSee

n this case, there's only one solution.
Develop a new application in PGDBE and convert the DBF/NTX files.
That would be actually very simple, technically, but only if I am working with a programmer.

Re: VisualdBSee

They sent me their source code today. It's obvious that they don't have a programmer. The app doesn't use ADS, just DBFNTX and they failed to give me any .LIBs that are referenced in the .XPJ file. It's a very small application, but this has all the marks of a boondoggle. There are only a few times,...

Sorry again for the downtime

My server, which I had for only 2 weeks, failed. It appeared to be another failure that I have now isolated to my APC battery, not the computer. However, the power supply in the computer was destroyed, but the hard drive was ok. I received a replacement, due to the warranty, and now everything is up...

VisualdBSee

Does anyone know anything about VisualDbSee? Alaska Software has asked me to contact a customer who is using the product, with ADS, and wants to convert to PGDBE. What is the purpose of VisualDBSee in an Xbase++ application? The customer wants to convert the application without source code changes. ...

Re: We are back!!!

shouldn't prevent you from enjoying your well-deserved retirement Every time I think about retirement, I'm guessing that my age is going to catch up with me soon, but then, when my mind is given a challenge, I find that I can still function well, and with a decent amount of creativity. Writing the ...

We are back!!!

My apologies to eXpress++ users and all others who have depended on this forum for support and the failure to provide that support for nearly 1 month. I went on a 2-week vacation, with my dog Harley, and on day 2 a storm took out my server back home. The battery failed to protect the server and I de...

Happy Harley

Harley Quinn finally got her wish. She saw her pedigree papers and saw that all of her ancestors had long funny names, and so she asked me why she didn't have a long funny name. Hers was just Wanderpond Harlequin. So I changed her name to Wanderpond Harlarious Funnybone. Now she's happy.
