Hello, I am using the latest release of XHB i.e. August 2006 RC-8. I always uninstall my current version and re-install the new one each time a new release is made available so there is no chance that it is a corrupt installation or contains old or modified files. I do the same with FWH. Regards, Da...

Hello, sorry, me again!

I copied (cut & pasted) the temporary fix into my main .prg but when compiling I now get the following xHB error:

hbole.h Line 62 Error F0026 Parse error in constant expression '\'

Help!

Regards,

Dale.

Thanks - I know that I can rely on FWH!

Dale.

Hi Antonio, Sorry to worry you with this again but I have (finally) received a reply from Ron Pinkas at xHB and his response was (and I quote): "This suggests you need to rebuild FiveHMX.lib" What do you make of this? I don't understand why I would have to rebuild FiveHMX.lib. I mean to sa...

No problem - and thanks!

Regards,

Dale.

Thanks Antonio for the reply. I have managed to tie the problem down to this: If I DO NOT explicitly add C:\FWH\SOURCE\CLASSES\WINDOW.PRG to the XHB Project then the errors occur. I reverted back to xHB RC-6 and this made no difference. I have to include C:\FWH\SOURCE\CLASSES\WINDOW.PRG in my list o...

Hello, The following command used to work (before updating to July 2006 build of FWH): ShellExecute( oWndParent, 'Open', 'http://www.website.net/' ) Now I get an application error (you know - one of those send / don't send to Microsoft error messages). Anybody know why (and how to fix)??? I have not...

That is why you created FiveWin and I just use it!!!

Too clever!!!

Thanks - it works perfectly for .bmp and .jpg!!!

Regards,

Dale.

Although - funny enough - the following does compile with no errors:

...
Local oMemoData

...
oMemoData := MemoRead( 'Test.bmp' )

...
ReDefine Bitmap oBmp Var oMemoData ID 123 ...

Hold the phone!

It is not quite that simple.

How do you then display the thing?

I mean to say there is no 'Var' associated with TImage.

You can't say:

ReDefine Image oImg Var iMemoFieldImage ...

Thanks,

I was going to try to use FOpen() and FRead() etc. etc. but your way sure looks simple enough.

Thanks,

Dale.

Hello, Sounds great - but how? Would you read the existing file off disk (using which function?) and then 'Replace Memo Field' with the data from the read or what? I mean to say that there is no function that I am aware of to say for example: gData := BitMap.Ext Replace Memo Field With gData Regards...

Ok - I think I understand.

But - are Gets handled the same way i.e. when focused they use the system colors or is it just the ComboBox that works this way?

I have no problem with Gets and Says.

Regards,

Dale.

Is there any way of storing a bitmap in a database file? This may not sound logical but how else could I do this: One section of my app contains a database of employees and I would like to be able to store (or attach) their picture to their details. Displaying the bitmap is no problem - that works p...

Thanks a lot,

Thats neat.

Regards,

Dale.
