Try the following, it should still be on index: FIND FIRST book WHERE isbn > "" USE-INDEX i-isbn NO-LOCK NO-ERROR.

LOL, another "Back to the future" fan. I Couldn't help having a little joke with you, my posting is an analogy of your posting in the previous thread of this group (See "previous thread" link). Couldn't help having a little fun with you. But seriously I'd say the reason for no seperate...

WILL NOT WORK, How will windows know to make this a hyperlink to execute in a browser? You CAN NOT use populate a message box with Radius Solutions. PROWIN32 doesn't interact with PECAS that way. :lol:

This should also work (sets color 17 as buttonface color). procedure GetSysColor external "user32.dll": def input parameter nIndex as long. def return parameter ocolor as long. end procedure. def var iButtonface as int no-undo. run GetSysColor(15, output iButtonface). if...

-s (stacksize) option is passed to progress on the command line or from within a pf file. The error 657 is probably being caused by a logic problem in your code that passes a big value to the substring starting position or length. You might be able to make use of the replace statement instead...

Do you have any of the printed manuals (I think they were still printed manuals in V7) that came with progress handy? The programming handbook is quite a good place to start.

After using vi - they should reset your terminal. Are you calling vi from a progress session with the UNIX SILENT command? I can understand how this would cause a fair amount of trouble with the progress display.

Can't say I know much about the UK progress market. Brisbane, Sydney and Melbourne have all picked up over the last 6 months or so. I hope it's a trend that continues, contract rates in OZ are still down a bit compared to 99/2000, but we aren't seeing the mad rush for full-time positions that...

Please tell me your not STILL looking now ;p

ljb1: Are you using any EDITING blocks on your UPDATE statements or PUT CURSOR/PUT SCREEN statements? Perhaps try a simple program like this to test: DEF VAR iValue AS DECIMAL DECIMALS 3 FORMAT "9,999.999" NO-UNDO. DEF VAR cName AS CHAR FORMAT "x(60)" NO-UNDO. UPDATE ivalue LABEL "Value" cName...

No you have misunderstood. The message was for Chris Schreiber and I was refering to the forum and the inability to post URLs in forum messages, as my example post shows.

Dynamic queries seem a little complex initially, but they are quite powerfull. You can also use a standard for each statement in a number of different ways to achieve a fair amount of flexability. Here are some examples, but using dynamic queries is usually more efficient. def var vIDlist as...

Chris, I seem to be having trouble putting URLs into messages eg: http://www.progresstalk.com/showthread.php?t=65113
