    Broker is 'still starting'

    Check the log-files for any interesting information. wsbroker1.server.log and wsbroker1.broker.log are default names (at least under solaris) and they are usually in your wrk-directory. Best regards Jens

    While processing....

    Hi Alexander, I don't think Ajax is the solution since I think it will be about as easy to do a re-write like in solution number 2 - I have no Ajax experience what so ever. I've looked into that webspeed trick earlier and found out that it really doesn't work. In Internet Explorer it works...

    While processing....

    Hi, (crossposted in the psdn forum) My problem: I have a WebSpeed app where a request from one page (page A) to another page (page B) takes lots of time (normally 10-40 seconds sometimes longer). This is because of communication with an external system so I have no real option of speeding it...

    Usb

    Hello everybody, this should propably go into the External Interfaces and API Code forum, but the activity is very low so I don't think i'll get many answers there. Has anyone tried communicating with USB peripherals from Progress (Win2000)? Are there any SDK's or do you have to work with...

    Problems using PCL in SUN Solaris

    I don't know if the frame might use some strange control characters or something like that. Think i missed a thing in my previous answer: i use "put control" instead of just put , and also (which shouldn't make any difference) "\033" instead of chr(27). Regards Jens

    adding, deleting, etc. dbase records

    I don't know if you've managed this yet. But what you do in the last exemple is that you create a new contract and assign values to it, shouldn't you find the appropriate contract (find first contract where contract.id = get-value("contractid") etc etc) and then update the values of that...

    Temptable, extents and indexes

    Hi, I have a problem with a temp-table that (simplified) looks like this: DEF TEMP-TABLE products FIELD name AS CHAR FIELD price AS INT EXTENT 10 INITIAL 0 INDEX idxname name INDEX idxprice price. There's not always a price in all of the 10 extents, so it might sometimes be...

    Send/Recive e-mails

    I have some Progress code sending MIME-attachments via sendmail. But since you didn't want to use any external program the only way I can think of is writing a SMTP client using sockets to connect to a mailserver and send the message. SMTP should be fairly simple and there are some good KB...
