  • You need to execute the same code that you would if the user had clicked on the tab themselves. Set_Property(@Window, 'VPOSITION', 2)
  • I was getting a little excited, thinking you had given me the simple magic solution and indeed at first glance it seemed like you had. Now, readystate comes back completed. However.... response still comes back null which is effectively the same as …
  • what @KevinFournier said. *taller*
  • draw the tab on the form slightly higher. Personally I usually set it about 30 high to allow appropriate space for images as well. The form designer height represents the tab caption height or thereabouts
  • No no Colin. The correct response there was that you were cleverer than you thought just not quite clever enough to be able to explain the complexities to the rest of us.

  • I'm more curious as to how you achieved what you have. Do you mean each tab autosizes so they are evenly spread across the entire tab width or have I misunderstood? I'm not aware of a tab width either but by default the tabs just size themselves to …

  • With an emphasis on syntax and your example link, I see how that changes the question and therefore the answer and yes I picked up on the "I wouldn't do this myself but this is how you might" tone. I'm not convinced that familiar syntax is a reason…
  • for i = 1 to 5 if needToJumpToNextIteration else GoSub do_my_stuff end Next i
  • for i = 1 to 5 if condition else // do my stuff? end Next i Oversimplified?
  • HOLD THAT DOOR, I'll see myself out
  • This is a reportable rather than an edittable but it's the first example I could think of that demonstrates what I think Kevin was referring to. I think what he was suggesting was to not show the multiline text in the edittable at all but rather dis…
  • Hhmmm, so it does. That makes me wonder how I've achieved it before because I'm pretty sure I have somewhere along the line. Is it dependant on the way you launch it, such as perhaps a dialog box instead of start_mdichild?
  • I find it has to be a case by case consideration. I personally like the shortcutbar but more often than not end up using the tree control simply because it has so much more functionality/flexibility. It's probably going to be a try it and see answe…
  • The experts can give you a better guide on the use of the splitter bar but essentially it's a visual aid only. You can 'move' it but it doesn't actually do anything other than provide visual feedback to the user. That may be why you "don't get it". …
  • untick the box in the form designer
  • Now that you mention that, I did see the version record in MD's sysenv though I didn't look at the content. In production it must be v1
  • an early one no doubt as that was MD's dev machine and he hasn't really played with that area. That said, I haven't really updated it anywhere in production either. Can't remember how to check.
  • Just had an opportunity to get back to this and found myself to blame. Some time ago I changed http_services so that the oecgiRegKey is dynamic so far as which version of the oecgi you were using. Unfortunately that means that if you're using oecgi4…
  • No you were smarter than that at the time. Case sensitivity is not a thing. …. not to say you're not still smarter than that but...
  • the latter. I'll have access again next week but it was a low priority last minute "let's see if we can get this to work before we take off home" type scenario. I'll debug and log further next week if we can prioritise the time. Really just throwi…
  • Don, you crack me up. You didn't think I was going to make it that easy for you did you? Actually not my laptop and no logging wasn't turned on so
  • and if I print preview, they all print to the screen, I watch them appearing and then as soon as it's finished, the preview screen flashes and then all I'm left with is a single blank page with the window title saying "Dictionary Listing Print Preve…
  • Well it did specify but easily overlooked because of what it actually was. That's what I meant by the content of the vsprinter record but I can understand how that could be glossed over as a description rather than the key. So, all invoices pr…
  • Thanks Don. I used your sanity check and just got the same print preview as always. How can I get it wrong?
  • @DonBakke or anyone else, can you confirm how to switch between classic and .Net? It's my recollection that you switch the content of the vsprinter record in sysenv between vsprinter and vsprinter2 or have I oversimplified? If that is all you do th…
  • We too do copious amounts of oipi printing and haven't come across this before and I'd like to think that it would have been mentioned if it had. With the invoicing example, that was written four years ago and it's used several times a week and I kn…
  • Using OIPI to export to pdf. It doesn't matter if we send the output directly to pdf via the export format in the INIT statement or if we print preview then use the export option on the preview screen. Both methods exhibit the same symptoms
  • Hey Don, Got to see this in person myself today. Yes, disregard the first image. When viewed directly, the ribbon buttons (icons and font) are approximately a third of the size of the equivalent ribbon buttons in an OI 9 version. The other noticeab…
