Ok I've (kind of) solved it: PROCEDURE ShellExecuteA EXTERNAL "shell32" : DEFINE INPUT PARAMETER HWND AS LONG. DEFINE INPUT PARAMETER lpOperation AS CHAR. DEFINE INPUT PARAMETER lpFile AS CHAR. DEFINE INPUT PARAMETER lpParameters AS CHAR. DEFINE INPUT PARAMETER...

Hi guys I saw an earlier thread in which someone was calling Crystal 9 from Progress using the following code: DEF VAR hCrysApp AS COM-HANDLE NO-UNDO. CREATE "CrystalDesignRuntime.Application" hCrysApp. ASSIGN hCrysApp:VISIBLE = TRUE. RELEASE OBJECT hCrysApp NO-ERROR. That no longer seems...

We've been wanting to get rid of smartObjects for a while, we have major bandwidth issues here, and smartObjects are definitely not as bandwidth friendly as they were intended to be (to put it mildly). We did an exercise where we tried to move to v10, and after a few weeks of trying to fix the...

Actually, sorry I'm wrong, our DB is on 91e. We are planning to make the big move to 10 at some point, it's just not as simple as we thought since we are still using SmartObjects, a lot of our screens need to be rewritten before we can do that.

Thanks! It seems that Crystal now belongs to SAP. I'm not sure if that means Progress is no longer a partner? Unfortunately we are still using v91c! I agree with you, I'm not sure the trainer is entirely clued up on the world of reporting. He wasn't talking about using Access as a...

I was wondering if anyone could give me some info on reporting application successes/failures they've experienced. We are thinking of implementing Crystal Reports, but will also need something that creates pdf's (we are currently using pdf include). I did a Crystal course today, and the...

Thanks that's great - of course why didn't I think of that - google it!

We are exporting data to excel and I want to put an excel logo on the button, but I can't find it anywhere. Microsoft has very cleverly hidden it. Any suggestions?

In answer to my own question, we have found a way to do this using the "visible" attribute on the columns.

We have a dynamic browser on a container, and would like to be able to change the browse fields at run time. I have tried the following (in a button trigger): lch_displayedfields = "da_MoveDate,ch_name". DYNAMIC-FUNCTION('setDisplayedFields':U IN h_dynbrowser, INPUT lch_DIsplayedFields)...

thank you very much Bono! By changing the file type to binary the problem has been solved. (I also had to download b64encode.p which I didn't have yet because it had never been used yet).

Hi I need some help with smtpmail.p. I would like to send a pdf file, so I need to know what parameters to send for "attachments". This is the parameter I currently have: "Statement:type=application/pdf:charset=iso-8859-1:filetype=PDF" but only a blank pdf file is emailed. Any help...
