Re: [WD 28] TitleHeader - 14 days ago
Hello Guenter, Kept playing around and may have a solution : This code is in the Init of a table column. The code is from the TextToRTF help. I have no idea how they get the rtf tags into the string originally but it certainly works in the column caption sTextInRTF is string sTextInRTF = TextToRTF("WINDEV is a great tool" + CR + ...

Re: [WD 28] TitleHeader - 14 days ago
Hello Guenter, I don't have V28 but did some investigating in V25 and it did not work there either but, in reading the help I saw a screen shot after the Syntax heading that showed the header with two rows. The trick seems to be that you have to enable the heading and sub heading option in the table using the "edit title-headers of columns" option in the Details tab of the Taby Al - WinDev Forum
Re: show code numbers and author in version 28 - 29 days ago
Hello David, This is a Windev forum, the language - Windev- is a 5GL made by PCSoft in France. V28 is the current version of the Windev software language. The code has line/code numbers as does every software language. The author is the person who has logged into the Windev software and is writing the code. Regards Alby Al - WinDev Forum

Re: Audit Trail - 6 weeks ago
Hello MediOffice, I have read your posts again and now understand better. The process I described works well as an "after the event" audit trail but not so good for a real time display to the user because of the changes in child records which is a complication I did not realise well enough in my answers. Maybe filetomemory() using a structure for each file and then compare the stby Al - WinDev Forum
Re: Audit Trail - 6 weeks ago
Hello MediOffice, Have a look at the help for HListItem() When you use it to extract the complete profile of a file, it identifies auto ID fields as type 1. I don't need that because my field name rules identify all my primary and secondary key fields Regards Alby Al - WinDev Forum
Re: Audit Trail - 6 weeks ago
Hello MediOffice, At the save point, you can get the current record value by reading the record using an alias file. This gives you a reference set of current data which would include data from other users which may be different to when the current user started their edit process. If this doesn't concern your processing, you could gather the reference data earlier. Imediately priorby Al - WinDev Forum
Re: Need frank opinion about upgrading to latest version of WX - 7 weeks ago
Hello Yogi, I upgraded to V26 and couldn't cope with the changes to the IDE so I reverted back to V25 and I will stay with that until something breaks between Windev and the current MS operating system. My advice would be to download the Express version as it is V27 so you could see if the IDE changes is no big deal for you and also check out the feature differences between your versioby Al - WinDev Forum

Re: project graph missing in wd28 pre - 2 months ago
Hello ccc2, I think the graph is a victim of the changing demands on software projects and as they grew the graph simply doesn't cope. Quote big project (like 50 windows, 50 report , 40 query) I suggest that this is not a big project nowadays. I never used the graph as even in the very first Windev versions for me, it was just a jumble of lines & images for even my first proby Al - WinDev Forum
Re: WB For Company Web Page - 3 months ago
Hello Andre, Clearly PCSoft, to use the American phrase, do not "eat their own dog food". If they did, their product would be a lot better as they would be as frustrated with it as I am. I have created a couple of very basic web pages in Webdev 25 for friends and they all have many "WDxxx" references as well as a Meta Name reference to WebDev as the generator. Tby Al - WinDev Forum

Re: Sort a memory table. - 5 months ago
Hello Aad, The TableSortedColumn() function returns the name of the current sorted column. The help states that it returns a list of sorted columns but that has never happened for me. You could save the sorted column name to a string prior to using TableDisplay and then use TableSort with the saved string value to restore the correct sort order. Regards Alby Al - WinDev Forum
Re: WINDEV 28 - 32-bit - 5 months ago
Hello Guenter Happy new year to you and yours also. I didn't realise that Win 10 still had a 32 bit option so yes that would be a much better option than Win7. Good luck. Regards Alby Al - WinDev Forum

Re: WD 26 Not Saving ... - 5 months ago
Hello Steven The problem started in V25 and has carried over to V26. I originally thought that the huge change to the IDE in V26 was an attempt by PCSoft to fix the saving issue by removing the MDI interface in the IDE but now I am not so sure. I am still using V25 and have "fixed" the problem with the following work around. I stopped using Alt S (save all) and Ctrl Shift Wby Al - WinDev Forum
Re: Window Testing Speed - 5 months ago
Hello Iso The record returned by HreadSeekLast is dependent on the selected index. I use autoId's as the primary key index on every file and never have a problem with getting the last record using that index.

Hello All When a code edit window is open, F6 displays the user name and date for changes made. The date is displayed in US format with the month as the first value but no day or year "11/..." so it is useless. Does anyone know how to expand the column to show the day, month and year ?

Re: Button Menu - 7 months ago
Hello Piscis I don't fully understand what you are trying to do, but I am guessing that maybe a table of looper construct would work better with individual cells in the table or looper instead of buttons. You could reference the cells in the table or looper by row and column and then perform an action depending on the choice. Regards Alby Al - WinDev Forum

Re: V27 - Version 2 - 8 months ago
Hello Derek, If you are currently on any version before V26, then I think you also need to consider the changes to the IDE that occurred in V26 before assessing V27. For me the changes in the V26 IDE made Windev an unworkable product and I have stayed with V25. Regards Alby Al - WinDev Forum
Re: [WD27] - user groupware compatible with version 17 - 8 months ago
Hello Paulo There is a groupware migration option in V18 when you open a V17 project with groupware. Maybe you could make a copy of the V17 project and open it in V18 to see how it goes ? Regards Alby Al - WinDev Forum
Re: [WD27] - user groupware compatible with version 17 - 8 months ago
Hello Paulo Just reviewing your post again: Are the GPW windows included in the new configuration ? Does the V17 option change if the new configuration is 32 or 64 bit ? What is different in the setup of the configuration that works to the one that doesn't - description, elements, telemetry, components etc. Regards Alby Al - WinDev Forum
Re: [WD27] - user groupware compatible with version 17 - 8 months ago
Hello Paulo From memory, V17 would be using GPW and versions after that use GPU. As there is no compatibility option in V27 you would probably need to turn off the groupware, add the groupware files to the existing analysis and modify the whole GPW process to run manually. I do that by adding a call to a modified version of the groupware in the "End of Initialization" of everyby Al - WinDev Forum
