In OpenEdge Architect I have lost the ability to see any visual part of the file. When I choose "View Design" I get this error: VISUAL DESIGNER CANNOT LOAD THIS CLASS An Exception occurred loading the design canvas: Object reference not set to an instance of an object. This happens with a...

We use the Progress built in tables to store audit data and are having some performance problems when trying to bring back the data in a certain way. Here is the query we run: FOR EACH _aud-audit-data NO-LOCK WHERE _aud-audit-data._audit-date-time > StartDate AND...

I don't think so, but I don't know for sure. I can change the fonts for every other control in Progress through the code and it works just fine. This is the only one that doesn't. I just feel like I'm missing something.

Seems like an easy question - how do you change the font of the title bar on a frame? When I set the font of the frame - it only seems to affect the data in the frame and not the title bar. Is there a way to change the font of the title bar as well?

Turns out the problem is that we weren't using all consecutive numbers in the font set. Our last number was 50 and the new font started at 60. Once I added fonts to 51-59 it worked. Odd though that there is such a strange restriction like that.

We want to install some new fonts on our clients and have them picked up by our applications when the changes are moved to their servers. We have moved the new font files to C:\Windows\Fonts. We have created registry entries at HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\PSC\PROGRESS\10.2B\fonts and...

Thanks that helps quite a bit. I think I might have been wrong. I was making a bad assumption that when the green arrow for the app server was still enabled that it was not "started" yet. Looks like that isn't always the case. :)

Hi, We are using a VB script for an automated process of ours that needs to stop and start our AppServers. When we use this command to stop the app server it works great: C:\Progress\OpenEdge\bin\asbman.bat -name MyAppServer -stop However, when I use this command to start it back up it...

Hi, I did not get an answer. I ended up not going with this approach to my design.

That I know. I was just curious if Progress had the ability to extend functionality of their data types in the way DotNet does.

Basically it's a way to extend functionality of variable types. Speaking from a dotnet point of view. I could write a static method that does a "WordCount" for example, and then based on the way I wrote that method, I could actually use it in the string variable like so: string myString; int...

I've been doing some reading on DotNet extensions recently and I was wondering if Progress has something similar?

However, that last check wouldn't ever be true. If the stringToCheck is ? then it's length will never be 0 (LENGTH will return ?, not 0 in that case).

I think its set to 13500. But the weird thing is my example above will not fail on a string that is 19000 characters long. but it does on one exactly 19244.

I don't know how to check this. Do you know?

We are on 10.2.B.

Hi, I am getting a weird error when I try to do a check on the length of a string (to see if its null or zero) when the string gets past a certain size. I'm enclosing some code that you can use to recreate the error (in my code, I'm not using the DO LOOP, I'm just enclosing it so you can get a...

I have recently heard about this "Dynamic Open Client" as a way to take data from a .p and transform it into a Dataset over an AppServer. Apparently someone has an example of how they did this here: http://www.thesoftwaregorilla.com/2009/11/openedge-dynamic-openclient-java-example/...

We have an in-house DotNet dll we wrote that will be utilized in our Progress application. To get it accessible to Progress we added the DLL information into an Assemblies.xml file. Periodically, we’re running across this error when running our application: "System.IO.FileNotFoundException...

That first section of code does compile but I get an "invalid data type" error when it runs. We found another way to get the signature into the Adobe form without any code (Topaz has an interface that Adobe has access to) so I may be good now. Thanks for your help though!
