depends where you are in UK i dont know that many places that use progress and i've found it to be more of a niche market and in terms of help stuff progress is no way near as good as msdn or the tons of books you can get with vb c# c++ etc but might be different say in the us

the program in front is the program i run the .p from but when i come back i get the default window as shown

hi RHD, I just relaised its the DEFAULT-WINDOW comming up. I enter a program and exit it then run another program that runs a .p and when i exit that .p i then get the DEFAULT-WINDOW sitting there being annoying I dont know why its there or how to get rid of it. It only seems to happen when i...

anyone got any docs or links for how open edge 10.2b creates windows. Ive got this issue when exiting a program a window is created which is just blank and i dont want it. I was wondering how i stop that/kill it off? any ideas would be ace cheers

ah yes found the code tags its not in the quick reply thats y i didnt see it

only way ive ever done it is via PROCEDURE ShellExecuteA EXTERNAL "shell32" : /*when ran opens default web browser*/ define input parameter hwnd as long. define input parameter lpOperation as char. define input parameter lpFile as char. define input parameter lpParameters...

its 10.2b I thought about doing a try and catch but wasnt srue how that would show where its happening. doesnt seem to happen all the time. an another question how do i do that code tag thing?

a customer of mine is saying they are getting a error on this program thats says no proglist record is avail. But looking in the code can only see this place where proglist is used bar for the buffer and a like on a temp table just wondered if anyone had any ideas? bProgList is a buffer for...

cheers that did the trick. Though wasnt sure what the * 2 was about i did it like this: chrTest = string(entry(lookup(rsPrice:screen-value,rsPrice:radio-buttons,",") - 1, rsPrice:radio-buttons)).

I've got a radio set its of int type (dont ask y someone did this god knows) and the options are Current(1) Last (2) Effective Dates bettween (3). I'm trying to output the which one is used but if i do screen-value i just get the number not the label e.g. 3 instead of Effective Dates. Is there...

cool.. well im using a static temp-table so first one is great for me:D once again thanks a lot

cheers mate I didnt need all of that what i did in the end was: DEFINE VAR bh AS WIDGET-HANDLE. DEFINE VAR hDBFld AS WIDGET-HANDLE. bh = buffer ttRecs:handle. /*get the field i want then output the value*/ do intI = 1 to num-entries(xHeaders): assign chrVariable = ""...

Hi I’m using open edge 10.2b I'm wondering if it’s possible to reference a database field via a alias. In my example im outputting to excel I’ve got the temp table name in a alias &scoped-define browse-table ttRecs im looping round the columns on browse to get my data but I cant dynamically say...

i know theres a limit on the number of characters of the overall p file

http://documentation.progress.com/output/OpenEdge102b/pdfs/dvdbg/dvdbg.pdf thats got the info for the debugger

in app builder click on tools->procedure editor then open ur .p file in that and click compile->debug and you should be able to debug the code via that. you havent given us much to go on what version of progress have you got? and do you mean using the debugger or have you got an actual error...

ok cheers mate I'll have to try the database fields again maybe me just getting it wrong just annoying how the breakpoint has the box for condition but cant be used... grrr but i guess if i want to do I'll just use a logical that way I only change it there and then i can step thru Thanks for...

i understand that but it was thinking if said variable is changed in two places then it wouldnt necessarily stop where you want it to. I'll have to have a play with it and see how i get on. I wanted really to stop when i got to certain record e.g. ordernum = 123 and step thru but didnt seem to...

ok cheers i managed find that after i posted. so i got what i needed from it. Its just a shame you still have to put some code in cause let say it was number in a field that means it would stop it any time its changed not necessarily where you want to step thru. why i progress does it always...

I'm trying to setup a conditional breakpoint on some code so for example if logtest = "True" then run the breakpoint otherwise just skip over. But when i try and set it up it doesn't work im using open edge 10.2b and running no compiled code. so any suggestions would be great cause i dont...
