 | The latest release of the dUFLP is now available at my website:
http://www.goldenstag.net/dbase/index.htm#dUFLP
Here's the Whats.New file to show you what has changed:
// -------------------------------------------------------------------- // --------------- WHATS.NEW in the dUFLP Library? ------------------ // --------------- This is dUFLPPLUS_L.EXE ------------------ // --------------- Dated: January, 2005 ------------------ // --------------------------------------------------------------------
IMPORTANT NOTE: This version of the dUFLP library has been renamed to reflect changes in the product ... it is now dUFLPPLUS_x, where 'x' is the current release.
This file is included in the dUFLP library to give a fast overview of what is new and what's been changed from the previous version of the dUFLP library -- that is the only purpose.
New to the dUFLP? See information in ReadMe.txt toward the top dealing with getting started ...

============================================================ Deleted -- removed from the previous version of the dUFLP library (you should probably remove unless you're using them): ============================================================
============================================================ Updates -- updated from the previous version of the dUFLP library: ============================================================ artwork.zip -- Added Plus2_5Icon.jpg -- the same image that is used on the desktop, can be used in a webpage, on a form in dBASE, etc. Extracted from Plus.exe using Resource Hacker. -- KJM
custbutt.cc -- New translation file -- custButtSwedish.h custButtSwedish.h by Ola Wallgren.
dUFLP.crp -- These three custom reports have been dUFLP2Cl.crp modified to set the reportGroup headerBand dUFLPLnd.crp and footerBand heights to zero. Otherwise they will (in Plus 2.5) appear, using space, even if you put nothing on them.
FileString.cc -- Simplified driveExists(), no need for an API call, in fact no need for driveExists() - I had not been aware of the built-in function validDrive(). -- Roland Wingerter
ImportData.wfm -- Fixed problem with space in a target alias name. Also made sure in field list for source fields, that we set focus on the first field in the list ... -- KJM
MiscAPI.prg -- Added SizeEX() to handle file sizes that are larger than 2gb. -- Marc Van den Berghen
MiscWSH.prg -- Added FolderSize() based on some code provided by Ivar B. Jessen. -- KJM Added GetFileSize() -- Roland Wingerter
Preview.wfm -- Updated to ensure that when doing multiple copies, the report goes to the same printer each time ... -- Bruce Beacham
ScrollImage.cc -- Updated to take advantage of changes in ScrollImageTest.wfm dBASE Plus 2.5, in regards to the onMouse events for forms ...
TableDoc.prg -- Fixed bug ("set path to :dUFLP:fileString.cc additive" was missing). -- Roland Wingerter
VideoRes.cc -- Added one line to get current dpi setting for screen. (Note that smallfonts.prg does something similar, it checks if dpi=96, while here we return the actual value.) -- Roland Wingerter
============================================================ New to the library since the previous version: ============================================================ BDEAliasEx.cc -- An enhanced version of BDEAlias.cc, this specifically allows for the creation of a BDE Alias for an MS Access database. -- Roland Wingerter
CreateODBC.prg -- Code to create ODBC-DSN entries during runtime. -- Andreas Beckhaus
CustomFields.zip -- Sample code for morphing data, includes a custom class, and two forms. -- Michael Nuwer
FileDlg.wfm -- A form and class that works with the FileDlg.cc default dBASE file dialogs (getFile() and putFile()), and allows you to work with the information returned ... -- Rick Miller
FontDlg.wfm -- A form and class that works with the FontDlg.cc default dBASE font dialog (getFont()) and allows you to work with the information returned ... -- Rick Miller
MiscCode.prg -- Code that doesn't really seem to belong anywhere else. This file starts with: keyExists() -- OODML version of KeyMatch() roundPrec() -- Precision rounding of numbers.
speedTip.cc -- speedTip class, with sample form, these speedTip.wfm show how to create multi-line speedTips. According to the author, this should replace speedText.cc. -- Rick Miller

 | Ken:
When I execute "ComponentPaletteUpdate.prg" I get a path error. In my setup, "designer" is under "Plus", not "BIN" -- \Program Files\dBase\Plus\Designer. The application expects: \Program Files\dBase\Plus\BIN\Designer.
Is the problem with me or you? ________________________________ Don Skupsky Information Requirements Clearinghouse

Um ... dunno. Hold on ...
if you go to the command window, and type:
? _dbwinhome
What do you get?

But, again, my directory structure show \PLUS\DESIGNER, not \PLUS\BIN\DESIGNER, like your PRG seems to expect.

Odd. It should be showing:
C:\Program Files\dBASE\PLUS\
The "BIN\" shouldn't be part of it. I am not sure why your system is doing that ...

? _dbwinhome // C:\Program Files\dBASE\PLUS\
Which is what I'd expect. b.1755.

I may have changed around my setup to allow multiple versions of dBase.
But, I gather from you response, that the problem is with my setup and not your program. I can work with that. ________________________________ Don Skupsky Information Requirements Clearinghouse

Yeah. I am relying on default settings in dBASE ... so it's something with what you're doing. Good luck ...
