  • Bryan, One approach is to set the CellProtection property to "Read Only". This still allows you to select from the dropdown but prevents unwanted entries. The only drawback is that it does not pass through the keystroke being entered and attempt to…
  • Mark, Always glad to see when the pilot catches his own error. Did you ever figure out what I was trying to recommend? Whether you understood me or not, I think you ended up following my suggestion to some degree.
  • Mark, Make the same call to the other table and it works as expected. By "other" table you are referring to the ReportTable with the identical configuration? As a way of troubleshooting the situation did you modify your code so that the identica…
  • Mark, Would you be so kind as to post a screen shot of what you are seeing? I think I am a bit confused as to what you are getting versus what you are expecting. Also, your setup code would be handy so I can compare.
  • Mark, It does appear that the ColumnCheckBoxAlignment property is not working. I have created a support ticket for this: OLE-86. In the meantime, does the ColumnList property do what you want? If you set attribute 16 to the alignment value you wan…
  • Mark, I might be able to dig into this and have a better reply by the time you read this, but I wanted to quickly confirm something. Are you saying that this used to work with an older version of the control but now it is not?
  • Colin, No, this is not a supported feature.
  • Mark, Ah..in that case, no. Only Preview mode provides this kind of display.
  • Mark, By "normal" do you mean no line mark delimiters of any kind? Are you looking for word-wrapping?
  • Bob, Upon further testing, I think what is happening is that the PreviewMode property is now defaulting to False instead of True. As a quick workaround you can add the following code after your ColumnList property: Set_Property(Ctrl, "OLE.PreviewMo…
  • Bob, At first glance it appears the Preview type of the ColumnList property is no longer working. I just now realized it is affecting some of my screens as well. I am sure we'll look into this and come up with a fix shortly.
  • Colin, I think your observation is correct. The ReportTable employs Excel-style formatting, which includes the comma symbol. The data in the ReportTable is expected to already be in an OCONV state but without any formatting other than the decimal p…
  • Colin, You meant method, correct? Actually, this is a feature we intended to implement earlier this year. One of our clients specifically requested this feature and was willing to underwrite the development. Unfortunately, the client had to withdra…
  • Colin, I'm confused. Are you reporting that this property isn't working as documented? The purpose of the FixedRowHeight property is to do exactly what you want.
  • Colin, If the ItemChecked property doesn't appear to support the ALL keyword, then I am going to conclude that there is now way to set all the check boxes in one go without populating the ReportTable with an array of data that sets the value. Ther…
  • Colin, Sorry...just as I clicked the Submit button I saw that this was asked for the ReportTable control. The correct answer is no, there is no provision for that. If I may ask, are you looking to colorize the current cell with focus? If so, then …
  • Colin, The CellColors property allows you to narrow this down to the specific cell. However, if you are using the RowsToRecords property then this will not do anything as custom formatting gets overwritten.
  • Colin, This appears to be locked down.
  • Martin, No disrespect was meant, and I am certainly aware of your years.of experience. However, you asked the question, "what if I'm offline". Thus I responded as I saw fit. I would disagree that this is our most sophisticated control. The SRP Edi…
  • Martin, All the documentation that was in the .CHM file exists on the wiki. So nothing has disappeared. If you think something has gone missing please notify us as to the specific article and we will address the issue right away. Your .CHM file st…
  • Dan, Yep...I assume the physical printer was the same. We just need to make sure the calling arguments look the same. Let me know how things work out when you replace the null with the specific printer information.
  • Dan, Then this tells me that Direct_Print does work since that is what ARev32 is using in this situation. I don't think Set_Printer is your best route although I suspect the sluggishness is perhaps because you are configured for VSPRINTER2. Even i…
  • Dan, Just so I am clear, does ARev32 work just fine with regard to the logo and the control codes to the register?
  • Mark, Kevin will probably have to come in and save the day with an answer. The best I can guess is this: * Trying to find SRPControls.ocx is the wrong approach. This is merely the filename and is not the control itself. * SRPControls.ocx is a bu…
  • Mark, I neglected to mention that the first path you provided, HKCU\Software\SRP, is what we create ourselves. This was done sometime ago as a courtesy but it is not required, is not definitive, and does not get used to enable the control to work. …
  • Mark, The short answer to your first question is that Microsoft determines where it wants to store registration information. I don't know the specific rules although I know 32bit versus 64bit machines will handle this differently. For your second …
  • Hi Ed, The SRP Controls Pro does not have a separate help file since the controls it contains are the same as our separate controls. We do not have a newer SRP_OLE_Controls.chm help file as we retired that in favor of putting all current documentat…
  • Jared, Honestly, I don't think this is documented anywhere. I quickly reviewed my AREV manuals but could not find any information on this. Sad to say, this is one of those arcane bits that have become common knowledge for the most veteran developer…
  • Dan, I can assure you that your table is not too big. Revelation database tables are well known for being able to handle large numbers of records rather well. Your problem could be the result of many things so it will be hard to provide you a comp…
  • Dan, I just use the Windows Programs and Features utility to uninstall programs. They all start with the name Revelation Software or OpenInsight. Just don't uninstall the one that only says OpenInsight, as that is likely going to uninstall your Ope…
