Hi all We plan to convert our procedural code for this control into a Class sometime this month with Rogers help. Assuming this is successful I will be happy to share the new control with you. The existing control works but it has become rather complex thus difficult to apply outside it's current co...

Hi all This is a long standing issue... We do the following to minimise problems: [*][*]open tables 'SHARED' wherever possible This causes the application to re-check the lock status of the DBF before ever file access. If you open tables EXCLUSIVE the application is 'faster' because won't re-check t...

We have encountered significant Memory Leak issues in our new release... unfortunately this discovery happened at the very end of many months work and this is holding up the distribution of the 'new' edition. The tool we ...

Roger There should be enough to make a demo, but you might like to optimise it and confirm it handles memory properly. The workaround for the focus issue we had in our earlier code was: not to use a pop-up brows reveal a hidden subform Cliff helped us a lot with the hidden form. He uses that trick i...

Hi again This image (PNG attached) shows how it looks after typing the letter F in the dcget(). If anyone has a better way of doing this, has a better name or can see code improvements, I'm happy to listen. Michael PS A known issue is the way the red highlight fails to clear when the users returns t...

Ok, this seems to work as a name lookup. The features are: Typing in the dcget() searches Name records and 'reveals' a three line two column browse of names. The top line of the browse is populated with the closest matching name to the typed characters. The user can keep typing -or- press the down/u...
