Programming / Handheld *winprt*
« on: August 25, 2020, 12:06:59 PM »
Hello,
Is there anyway when I open *winprt* on a Handheld that the printer box can be smaller so the users can see the controls?
I should have mentioned / I'm using RDP.. i bet if i was using windx then box would be smaller...
thanks in advance

Hi List,
i am really scratching my head on this...

Repeat data did not disappoint...i created another pdf and repeat data as follows
REPEAT DATA TO REAL_CHAN ON BACKUP_CHAN
the pdf that i created on Backup Chan looks perfect
the pdf that i created on the Real_Chan is blank.

Hello List,
i'm using *plus/web/request;put
call "*plus/web/request;put",err=*next,(URL$),(DATA$),RESPONSE$,RESPONSE_HEADER$,(CONTENT_TYPE$),(CERTIFICATE$),(EXTRA_HEADERS$)
and my program is getting error 31's after running for a while..i see a lot of [tcp] ports opens on hfn channels..
i think *plus/web/request is not closing a file channel, but i see a close in the program...
has anyone else ever had this issue?

Programming / XCOPY
« on: July 02, 2020, 11:45:43 AM »
Hi List,
i'm trying to backup some data off hours. From what i read about XCOPY on Windows is that it should not lock the file. but i tend to get error 0's in pxplus if someone tries to access the file. There are very few users on system when i run this but i was just curious
does anyone know a command line way to backup files without causing error 0 in pxplus applications.
thanks

Nomads / copy and pasting from the internet
« on: June 09, 2020, 08:26:29 AM »
Hi List,
I continually have problems where customers copy and paste item_numbers and descriptions from the internet into multi_lines on our system. Is there any global way to clean this data or do I have to handle it on each multi-line. I end up with Tabs and CRLF's and it causes havoc in other places.
thanks

Programming / Disregard -> Automation Process ID
« on: May 07, 2020, 09:23:57 PM »
Hello List,
Even if they click send the .exe (pid) will still be active so this wont work....
thanks anyways
I am invoking an outlook application using automation.
def object obj,"Outlook.Application"
there is a plethora of pvx vars and Office Vars, but I cannot find the process ID of the outlook.exe. I think i could do it by checking for the windows using dll but I thought maybe someone figured out a way to do it....
Jeff
p.s. the reason I want it has to do with active windows...i want to minimize our pxplus erp app until user clicks SEND....

Language / Hexadecimal in Associative Array
« on: April 09, 2020, 03:21:23 PM »
Hello List,
is there any issue with putting hexadecimal values as the index of an associative array...
for example
dim LINE_ARRAY
LINE_ARRAY[$00FE00$]=1
It seems to work but am I asking for trouble?

ODBC / ODBC Client vs Server Version
« on: February 26, 2020, 12:59:20 PM »
Howdy All,
I have a client who is using ODBC File Server version 5.10.0002,
but they read on pxplus website about new features in ODBC Client (i think they mentioned 7)
question for you all....
can a customer use the higher client version with the lower server version.
thanks

Thin Client/WindX / Most Common Setup
« on: October 15, 2019, 10:03:39 AM »
Hello List,
I have a question re: Common setup environments for Non-Web pxplus.
are people running the pxplus "application server" on a linux machine and then running windx to connect to that "Application Server"
i'm just curious what is the most common setup out there.
we are running rdp to a windows server...(and i dont think that is what most developers are doing)
thanks

Programming / Determining Printer from Print Channel
« on: September 25, 2019, 09:33:32 AM »
Hello List
I know we can determine a printer from winprt_setup read printer$.
But if i have a call program that i pass print_channel into, is there a way i can determine the printer by examining the print channel.
like a FIN or something

Nomads / Right Click on Grid
« on: September 03, 2019, 04:05:49 PM »
Hello List,
When we make our own right click menu for a grid. We lose the pxplus print function that allows us to print grid.
I tried to make my own menu option to fire off *LIB\_PLUS\WINUTL\LISTPOPUP;PRINT_LIST but it just hangs saying "Loading" in the viewer.
Is there any way for me to have the best of both worlds.
Custom Pop-Up and a PxPlus Print.

Nomads / Firing Off Query
« on: August 28, 2019, 08:55:43 AM »
Hello List,
Is there a way to fire off a query attached to a multi-line if user hits <enter> on field.
Maybe something like this in On Change Logic:
if _EOM$=$0D$ and NUL(CUSTOMER$) then fire off query?
