    Question Can we remove the space allocated for a table field in a frame when the field values is empty in CHUI?

    you could try something like this: define frame a cs-id cs-name cs-name cs-status cs-ind1 cs-ind2 cs-ind3 /*NO NEED THIS cs-cmnt */ with down width 72. define frame b cs-cmnt with no-labels width 72. for each customer NO-LOCK : display cs-id cs-name cs-status cs-ind1 cs-ind2...

    So sad to hear that. I always enjoyed the PEG and not only the discussions there, but also the lasting friendships (and future wife) that I interacted with there. He was really a pioneer in how a forum should operate and a good man to boot.

    Target restore failed

    Just a thought -- you might want to try and restore the same name as the backup: You backed up to sports2000_target.bkp But you are trying to restore from sports2000_tar.bk

    Php and openEdge 11.7

    I don't really know. Someone with ODBC setup knowledge would need to assist. Or you could just google the System Data Source Name and find something similiar to this

    Php and openEdge 11.7

    Question Guidance needed for ABL on Linux to access SQL Server.

    FreeTDS actually is a library allowing you to 'talk' natively to Micrsoft SQL db's. The explanation is well defined here. With the installation of FreeTDS there is a utility also installed bsqldb to process SQL statements. It is not a 'live' connection, but instead is a batch process...

    Question Guidance needed for ABL on Linux to access SQL Server.

    Let me know if you have any questions as to setup or scripting. Also, just as an FYI, you don't have to deal with column sizes to parse any reporting.... you can have a true csv with your own defined delimiter.

    Question Guidance needed for ABL on Linux to access SQL Server.

    You may want to look at FreeTDS ODBC app for your Linux server. There are a number of google search articles on how to connect to SQL server from Linux.

    OBDC connection for Progress v6.3

    6.3 is around 30 years old give or take. I wouldn't expect there to be much if any help since there isn't that many of us still around that actually used it.

    Resolved Enable Browser with other objects on the form.

    Where they come from and when you display them is important. Regardless, if you calculate it, once the calculation is done just display those iv totals with frame framename. If it comes from a db table, then do the same and display them once you have the table record via a find or whatever.

    Resolved Enable Browser with other objects on the form.

    Well -- 1st thing is that you would have a problem in the display (unless intended) as you have the "Total:" starting at column 1 and the totals starting at column 5 and the length of "Total:" is 6 + 1 for the space separator. Next, use code tags around your code examples for posting here...
