Re: Problem With Saving X and Y on Window Close

That's normal. You need to check to see if it was minimized when you restore.

Re: Database coding question

I find myself facing the dilemma mentioned in this post - I would like to easily obtain both the first and last rows in a specific table in order to calculate a range. Row items have been added in sequence, but multiple tables exist, so the desired row items are not necessarily adjacent in the datab...

Re: Webgadget not working with script created content

If I remember correctly, the "out-of-the-box" webgadget is not up to current IE standards, unless you're talking something like ie5 or thereabouts. There are some changes you can make either via a command or a registry setting to force the webgadget to use the current IE engine. I've never...

Re: Reading the registry

> XP users are a pretty small subset of Windows users these days :shock: It's still Number One from 2008 to today! 2008 was five years ago. Check a reliable source for 2013 and you'll get a smaller number. But have it your way :D http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Usage_share_of_desktop_operating_systems...

Re: Reading the registry

Nice addition to the toolkit. XP users are a pretty small subset of Windows users these days and getting smaller all the time.

Thanks for sharing.

Re: File links in an editorgadget

Many thanks Little John, You really went "above and beyond" on this one. I really appreciate it. If fact I had just finished making that change based on your suggestion from yesterday. When I first changed it, the files appearing from a drag/drop would not open on a double click - Windows ...

Re: File links in an editorgadget

Regarding the file names containing a space, I know how to pass a name containing a space, however anything past the space is not highlighted or shown as part of the en_link. I can make guesses as to what the remainder of the file consists of, but was hoping for some method of having the link be hig...

Re: Additional characters in databases PostgreSQL and SQLite

In older versions of pb, ansii characters between 128 and 256 were passed as one byte and when read back were shown as their ansii equivalent. Since 5.0 they are passed as the utf-8 equivalent, 2 bytes and thus do not display properly in ansii. It is a pb related issue. You can have a character whic...

Re: Additional characters in databases PostgreSQL and SQLite

I'm not sure exactly when it changed. There have been a few discussions about it and it's not likely to change back. I circumvented it by writing the ascii text strings as type blob. Using this, they do not go through any pb conversion and you maintain the one character designations for chars over 1...

File links in an editorgadget
