Most of what you wrote is a duplicate of your prior post. You didn't comment at all on my suggestion, so I'm curious as to why that route didn't work.
-
Your 'official' release of srpcontrols is showing version of 4.2.4, you are showing this updated version as 4.2.5.12, which is nowhere near where I would expect the current release to be of 4.2.5.11 The 4th position is never displayed on our site.…

Might I suggest that you create a simple hook so you can observe the incoming and outgoing values when you do a normal compile?
-
Use the COMPILE method for the Repository function to compile your code. Use the Blint() stored procedure to check for VNAVs. Blint is not documented, but you can pretty easily figure out how to call it by looking at the argument names.
-
Putting an MFS on SYSREPOS is doable but I consider it to be too risky. I suggest creating a hook for the Repository function and adding logic that bypasses the DELETE request for certain conditions.

@Opto_Will, I was referring to the versions of OI that were available 25 years ago, so that would have primarily been 2.x and 3.x (16bit versions of OI) and 4.x (the first 32bit version of OI). Newer 32bit versions, especially 9.x, have exposed mor…
-
I took a quick look at the Cursor_Position code...which is 25 years old! The xPos and yPos values should always be correct. Those are coming from a Windows API. The Col and Row are calculated because older versions of OI don't have a way to conver…
-
For my problem lines, the Col and Row returned from the Cursor_position call to the Position variable are both 0. This line also confuses me because your original post notes that the problem is that the row position is offset by 1, not that it is…
-
The culprit is obviously Cursor_Position. Can you clarify something, when you say "it has the x and y co-ordinates" are you referring to the xPos and yPos that are also returned (positions 3 and 4 in the array)?
-
I'm all for playing around. Your sin was not having a better recovery plan!
-
When you create a new promoted event using the Event Designer tool, it also begins to recompile your forms so they become aware of this new event link in the chain. Those forms you found were those that got modified because of the promoted WINMSG ev…
-
@Opto_Will - I'm glad that my comments are clearing some of the mud for you, but I am not sure my question was understood property. I'll ask my question again (albeit differently) after quoting this comment from you: However, InitMenu wont work for…
-
What exactly are you debugging and what exactly is populating the Row value? I think I'm missing some critical data here.
-
I can't offer better because you are obviously under constraints from "powers that be", and I don't know enough to offer alternatives that would satisfy their expectations. Otherwise this would be playing 20 questions and nobody got time for that. ;)
-
That is a solution. Not sure if it is the best solution.
-
If this is a beginner programmer perhaps you can change their access level from System Administrator to just Administrator. I think that should disable the Entity menu and avoid accidental deletes.
-
Please clarify something. Is the window launching but only the commuter module isn't being called or is the window not launching at all?
-
I want to make sure I understand a few things... Towards changing one of these currently non-MDI child windows into such, I have created a new DBW window with its own commuter module, and changed all the window events to specify that. I take this…
-
I was guessing it was in a promoted CREATE event handler.
-
Okay. That tells us that Start_MDIChild itself is not your problem. There is something else, most likely in the application logic, that is the problem. I'll leave that to you to unravel.
-
I'm not suggesting we will have arrived at a solution, but it will tell us something if setting the VISIBLE property to 1 actually displays the window. Have you at least tried this?
-
I think it makes sense to make this visible in the commuter module and see if that does anything.
-
Those are track for me. If the windows are not visible, are you doing anything to set the VISIBLE property to 1?
-
Yes. I'm hoping these might reveals clues as to what is happening.
-
To recap: you have windows that are called via Start_MDIChild, they execute their CREATE event handlers, but they are nowhere to be found on the desktop or within the MDI Frame. In the CREATE event handlers, what are the values of the VISIBLE, PARE…
-
My question was whether these problematic windows are calling their CREATE event handlers, not whether they have one. Just trying to help you isolate the problem. BTW, hooking can also be used to determine if there is a speed bump along the way. Yo…
-
I see. Well this is a different problem than what this thread started out to be. I take it that when these windows are not being opened in the frame that they also do not call their own CREATE event handler?
-
Roger - I'm not certain how to create an MDI Child without using Start_MDIChild. This isn't common knowledge or documented anywhere. If I were eager to figure it out, I would create hooks for Start_Window and observe the incoming parameters to see i…
-
Ah...yes it does work. I was testing for the form and it still does not appear to work.
-
Barry - did you actually test this or are you simply going by the existence of the event?
