Re: Data acquisition from a Serial port

Hi, Simon. You have a set of serial port functions available in the Xbase-Tools-library (part of the prof. subscription, otherwise available as an add-on). All you need in addition are the communication parameters (baudrate, handshake a.s.o.) and the data format transmitted, which should be document...

Re: Right click in DCBrowse

Hi, Chris. RBDOWN must be the event firing first, since this is the "real" event (right button of the mouse down), while "RBSELECT" follows this: The right mouse button was clicked into a cellgroup, the cell can be selected, so it creates this event afterwards. The first thing is the "what" (mouse e...

Re: Transparent Get's

A XbpBitmap is not a XbpPart! It's a class for bitmap objects. Try this: @ 0,0 DCSTATIC TYPE XBPSTATIC_TYPE_BITMAP CAPTION MYBITMAPRESOURCE SIZE .... OBJECT oBitmap @ ...

Re: HOW TO GET BROWSE COLUMN HEADING AT RUNTIME ?

Multiplication. 8-)

Re: RMChart and Windows 7

Hi, Roger.

Edit: RMCHART.DLL is needed even if the OCX is used!

Re: Printing to pdf with DCPRINTER and XbpPdf
