WDDebug.exe - 6 weeks ago

I finally have to remote debug a WinDev22 application. I have only one copy of WDDebug.exe and it appears to be the 64bit version because despite its name, when I try to run it on the remote system it comes up with an error message saying "WDDebug64.exe must be used on a 64-bit operating system". How do I get a 32 bit version? Thanks, Garry

Re: ComboBox help request - 6 weeks ago

It seemed rather complicated getting everything to work in both Edit and Add scenarios but I did come up with a solution which may not be very efficient but works. The tables involved are not very large so efficiency was not an important consideration. I created 3 ComboBoxes in the same position but on different planes and selected the pane when the user enters that control based on the contents

ComboBox help request - 6 weeks ago

I an using WinDev 22 and I have a design problem which I will try to describe. I want to have 2 ComboBoxes on an Edit Screen where the contents of the 2nd box depends on the content of the first. The first is no problem: it is linked to a table which describes a type of component 1.Glass, 2. Resin, 3.Labour (and there might be more) The contents of the 2nd Combobox will be based on either a Gl

Re: Systematic Training Video Course - 2 months ago

I would also recommend Glenn Rathke's training materials (wxtraining.net). They are not free but very valuable for getting up to speed: I figure that they paid for themselves in 1 week of use. Garry PS and Glenn's support is stellar!

Thanks for the hint. The problem occurred because of some code I pasted in from another program. Sloppy! Garry

Blank Tables - 3 months ago

I just finished installing a WinDev 22 app remotely; the first time I've done this in a long time. The server installed with no problems. I then moved the data files into a newly created Database by importing from an HFSQL classic database using the HFSQL Control Center. So far, so good. I can see all the data files and their content in the Control Center but when I run my app it shows all

Control Templates - 5 months ago

This is pretty weird but I can't seem to create Control Templates in either WinDev 20 or 22. If I use New\Control Template and put a couple of buttons on it and save it no icon shows up in the Project Explorer for Variables for it; only Controls and Local Procedures and if I right click the TPCL_xxx and select Code I am only shown the code for the 2nd button that I created. Exactly the sam

Re: Raspberry Pi 400 - 5 months ago

Thanks for your input. I checked out Docs.WinDev.com and noticed the following: The Linux applications developed with WINDEV operate on the devices equipped with an Intel processor or with a processor compatible with Intel (the ARM processors are not supported). I think the Raspberry Pi has an ARM processor. Garry

Raspberry Pi 400 - 5 months ago

I was considering these for inexpensive data entry stations. I think the Raspian OS is a form of Linux. Does that mean that WINDEV Linux compiled programs will likely run on them? ( I would ask PCSoft but they only seem to reply if you have an active support contract.) Garry

Bar code scanning - 8 months ago

I am about to tackle a new WinDev project which involves scanning Bar Codes. I have done this in the past but it was a very long time ago and it was not using WinDev. At that time most Bar Code Scanners were serial devices but I see that now many are USB or Bluetooth. A cursory look at the WinDev Help file seems to indicate that it supports serial devices but I would prefer cordless readers. I h

latitude/longitude - 1 year ago

Simple question I would think but I don't have any Windev experience with mapping. I have to add longitude/latitude fields to an HFSQL file. The purpose is only to aid in uniquely identifying a location (in this case the name of a lake since there are many duplicate lake names in the file). What is the best way to set this up?

Re: [HF Classic] Which is the correct way to use it? - 2 years ago

The problem may not be your program. There was a Win7 update in January that caused many network sharing issues. I just spent 3 days trying to solve network locking problems that a client was having. All of their machines run Win7 Pro and share data that exists on a dedicated machine. This all started about 10 days ago. The solution was to apply KB4487345 to all of the machines. Garry

is the server broken again [2]? - 2 years ago

OK - I can apparently send new messages so I will try and put the info in here. Perhaps I can make it clearer. In the attached image of the example WD_Signature, how did the code for IMG_Signature get in there? IMG_Signature appears nowhere in the analysis and the only way that I got the code on the screen was to use the Find for gnx in all the project elements. Sorry about the missing attached

Drawing on a camera control - 2 years ago

I'm not sure I'm describing this properly but what I want to accomplish is to display an image from a camera and to be able to draw on the image. Can someone give me sample code to do this? It seems like it should be simple! I have looked at the signature control example but I can't seem to get my head around it. For instance there is a section in the code where it shows an event

WinDev22 crash - HELP! - 2 years ago

Doing some final testing, all of a sudden Windev started complaining about TYPE being read only during a ScreentoMemory operation. I had used TYPE as a fieldname in a file (a couple actually) and it had never complained before but I decided it must be a reserved word in WinDev so I modified the structure. Recompiling seemed to be taking a very long time so I closed WinDev and re-opened the proj

printing a memory table - 2 years ago

Is it possible to print a report on a memory table? much later... Well, yes it is but the only way that I found to reference it in the report was to display it in a window first. I didn't really want it there so I just made it invisible. Sounds like a kludge but it worked. If you can think of a more elegant way I'm listening! Garry

Re: Problem printing array - WinDev22 - 2 years ago

I removed 'dynamic' but it didn't change anything so I decided to look at a project where I had done something similar: In that project I had an Invoice object that contained a member m_arrInvLine which was an array based on a structure. As nearly as I can make out the process is identical to my project that doesn't work! Very frustrating. I have rebooted my machine, recompil

Problem printing array - WinDev22 - 2 years ago

I am trying to print an array using the report writer. I have checked the array and it is all correct but when I print the report it prints the the first record in the array repeatedly for the entire array. i.e.it is not stepping through the array but the number of lines is correct. I have used this approach before and it has always worked. The only difference is that this time the array is an a

Re: Loopers - 2 years ago

That must have been very confusing! I forgot that multiple spaces get collapsed when a message is posted. I have edited the original post and used periods instead of spaces to hopefully make it clearer what I want to do. I don't think I need a double looper: I just want each record in the table to show a list of the available vendors for that product. Garry

Loopers - 2 years ago

I must confess... loopers have me mystified! I want to display a list of items to order. Each item may have several suppliers and I want the user to be able to select which vendor(s) to request a quote from. So, I expect I have to present the table in a looper... but I can't for the life of me figure out how to do it. I want something like this: Item........Suppliers.....Quote ========
