Thank you !

Good day

I remember seeing somewhere a sample of code that retrieves all the open windows' title text. I just don't remember how to do it or where it was. If anyone has code I would appreciate it.


TIA

Hi All I reinstalled my clipper 5.3a ... and applied the 5.3b US patch , but the clipper.exe doesn't seem take the patch .. all other files do. This has come about because I'm now getting a memory low error and I'm trying to get rid of it. Apparently, clipper.exe for 5.3b with the updates to the err...

That's strange under Win 2000 i get the user temp path, I am however logged in as an admin of the local machine.

Or you can use the following API call to get the windows temp folder function get_temp() local tbuffer:=space(256) gettemppath(256,@tbuffer) tbuffer := LEFT(tbuffer,AT(CHR(0),tbuffer)-1) return(tbuffer) DLL32 Function GetTempPath( bufferlen as LONG, tbuffer AS LPSTR) AS LONG ; PASCAL FROM "GetT...

That's kinda what I did in the end .. except I didn't want the disable look but i did use the button colour as the background colour for the get. I had to hide some as well. THanks for all suggestions

You're right ... but you can use the same edit text box control in an rc or dll file, for a get or a say, with the read only property. when it's redefined as a "Say" , i have to set the colors to look like a normal "say". the only problem is the tab stop. I would like to remove i...

Disabling isn't going to work in the situation. because sometimes control 100 ( for example ) will be a say, and sometimes it will be a get and control 200 etc so rathert than having duplicates of each control in the rc I have everything working except for removing the tabstop when its a say, or con...

I was wondering if there was a way to add or remove the WS_TABSTOP from a get on a dialog ? The dialog is from an RC file and could also be from a dll file

Glad to hear you got it working , winexec and shellexecute are very similar in what they do.

Here is a working simple sample of how to net send. #include "Fivewin.ch" static odlg FUNCTION MAIN() LOCAL msg := SPACE( 20 ) LOCAL muser := SPACE( 20 ) DEFINE DIALOG oDlg @ 1, 1 GET msg OF oDlg @ 2, 1 GET muser OF oDlg @ 4, 5 BUTTON "&Ok" ACTION sendnetmsg(msg,muser) @ 4, 1...

You could create it with a temp file name using 8.3 convention, and use the movefile api call to move it to a long file name. Movefile ( "c:\temp\temp.fil" +chr(0) , "c:\folder\long file name.fil" +chr(0)) DLL32 FUNCTION MOVEFILE( cOldName AS LPSTR, cNewName AS LPSTR ) AS BOOL; P...

You couild try uninstalling the fwctrls.dll from resource workshop , and then adding each of the controls as custom controls, you will lose the advantages of using the fwtcrls.dll. but it wouldn't make it a requirement to run the app. I know that it defeats the purpose of using fwtcrls.dll but it mi...

Could it be you are using a Borland Control ( like a sunken or raised line or the borland static control ) on one of the pages/folder tabs or dialogs ? if so you will need to also load the BWCC.DLL as wel or change it to a non-borland style control. Workshop loads the BWCC.DLL when you have it runni...

Glad to hear it worked for you Dutch.
