    running .p/,r from mouse click

    Appserver aware? Client-server? If you connect to an appsever, the appserver config can handle db connections. If you are running client-server, the client connects straight to the database(s). This can be done with a CONNECT statement or using a parameter file (.pf) or both!

    running .p/,r from mouse click

    Unless you mean you want an icon on your operating system which starts up a Progress/Openedge session. You need to be clearer with your requirement. For example, on Windows if I wanted to start an OE10.1A session calling Main.p using MySettings.ini I would create a shortcut to run a .bat...

    Xignite data interface

    I'm not familiar with that particular web service, but the WSDL Analyser automatically generates good sample code based on the providers WSDL document. (WSDL = Web Service Definition Language) Stick this into proenv: proenv>bprowsdldoc http://www.xignite.com/xGlobalHistorical.asmx?WSDL...

    OE 101A with Oracle Cliient Lite 10

    We have a linux box with Oracle Client 9 installed but we'd like to get our Oracle Dataserver to use Oracle Client 10 Lite version but unsure where in Progress the Oracle version is defined. We figure using Lite will avoid the usual issues with co-existing versions of Oracle Client. So how do we...

    .Net Webservice Authentication from Openedge Client

    Hi, We are running OE10.1A on Windows XP/Server 2003 client, and recently started using MS Reporting Services 2005 with IIS 6 I have a generic GUI reporting screen which enables some fields for input depending on the report that has been chosen. To decide which fields to enable, I want to...

    Oracle dataserver £ special character ¿

    Thanks for that! But now I'm utterly confused!! I went in to change the code page for the dataserver as you suggested (Data Administration -> Dataserver -> Oracle Utilities -> Change Dataserver Schema Codepage) When prompted for the new code page it was pre-filled with iso8859-1 I would...

    wordappl:document:saveas - problem

    Hi grinder, I think that is default behaviour in Word (when you save a file the first time it sets the Title property to be the first line of text). Not sure how to programmatically update that. Maybe try wordappl:document:UpdateSummaryProperties () after you have done the saveAs (then save...

    Read Receipts, Delivery Receipts, and Send on Behalf of

    AFAIK this approach will be caught by the increased security in any releases beyond Outlook 2003 (SP1?). Perhaps not a big problem if you don't mind the user needing to click OK on a prompt to allow the applicaiton to access Outlook. If you are sending a batch of emails, it could become a...

    Oracle dataserver £ special character ¿

    Thanks tamhas, Any ideas on how to trace the code pages involved at each stage? - I can set my 4GL/ABL client using the startup parameters (I'm trying this use ISO8859-1) - How do I know what code page my Oracle Dataserver uses? - I'm quite sure the Oracle Db uses ISO8859-1 too (see below)...

    Oracle dataserver £ special character ¿

    We have an application which stores the pound symbol £ in a Progress database. We then update an Oracle db using a set of APIs and the £ gets stored in Oracle as an upside down question mark ¿ Any ideas how we can get the pound sign into Oracle correctly?

    EMF Printing

    I have a requirement to print in EMF (Enhanced metafile). I believe the Progress default is RAW. But is it possible to change this? Referring to Progress Software Technical Support Note # 15276: "Under Windows95, you must change EMF spooling to RAW spooling." I presume from this that EMF...

    Problem with OE10 Webspeed & .css

    Arrrrgh, never has something so small caused me sooo much bewilderment!! In v9, Webspeed always placed a comment on the first line of the produced HTML <!-- Generated by Webspeed: http://www.webspeed.com/, http://www.possenet.org/ --> In version 10, this comment is now output on the last...

    Problem with OE10 Webspeed & .css

    I work with Simon, and the problem can now be narrowed down to this: We have addressed the javascript errors in this Webpseed application (for those who come across it in future, Progress have changed acceptable escape characters in strings from v9 to OE10. A \ is no longer taken as an escape...

    HTML Email (data > 32000 bytes) - Possible VB workaround?

    You are right, it does seem a long way for a shortcut!! I'm unreliably informed that the memory limit of 32kb is no longer an issue in OE10.

    HTML Email (data > 32000 bytes) - Possible VB workaround?

    Yeah, tried that at the start. Thanks for all your help and advice, but I think I'll use the above VBScript solution. Speed might be an issue, so I'll try to build the EMail soley in Progress first, but if it gets too large, I'll resort to "Plan VB" Something like vHTMLString =...

    HTML Email (data > 32000 bytes) - Possible VB workaround?

    GOT IT!! Here is the VBScript to take a file path as an extension and read that file in as the HTMLBody If WScript.Arguments.count <> 1 Then WScript.echo "Error, invalid arguements passed to Email.vbs" WScript.Quit End If StrInputFile = WScript.Arguments.Item(0) Dim SafeItem, oItem...

    HTML Email (data > 32000 bytes) - Possible VB workaround?

    I have had a look and that is the type of code I have written, but I didn't know how to call it from Progress. I have since put it into a .vbs file which I can run from the command line. I am probably going to have to write the HTMLBody into a text file and read it into my VBScript. My plan...
