    Question Grab entire array at once?

    Is there a quick way to grab all the elements of an array? I'm thinking of something using pointers, but not having to walk the node tree. I was guessing that, since the SQLW for extent vars is the length of all the extents put together, they are all stored sequentially at the same memory...

    Hide Tabs in a SmartFolder?

    I would like to have a combobox that selects which tabs are displayed. Possible? Multiple page sources don't seem to be possible. Are there multiple ways to crack this nut? I'm a SmartObject newb, so take it easy on me.

    ENTRY to Field in Dynamic Browse

    In a nutshell, my goal is to apply ENTRY to the field the user double-clicked on (activating the dynamic editable browse). However, I can’t seem to change the column manually at all. The field selected is always in the column last selected when the browse was active. I have multiple...

    Scroll without scrolling the column labels ??

    How can I have scrolling data in a frame without scrolling the column labels? This seems to be the way it should work by default, but that isn't the case. Why would I want a column heading that scrolls off the screen and won't scroll back when I go back to the top??? Anyway, please lend...

    Will changing to Unique index be worth it?

    I have been finding old indices that are unique in practice but aren't set as unique. I'd like to know if there will be any performance gain or any other good reason to take the time to make these indices unique. BTW, using Progress 8. Here are some examples: po_mstr po_nbr_key...
