RE: report problem
Hi Paul You are going to need to convert the numerical data to a string and append spaces to the right side of the string using the fill function.  If you want to convert the numerical field values into positional values you will probably have to resort to opal.

Running multiple SQL (DDL) scripts against Paradox
HI, Does anyone know of a (free) utility to run multiple SQL (DDL) statements/scripts against a Paradox database?  Ideally used for deployments (where you are updating a database with more than one SQL script) and you don't want to manually run one script after another. Thanks

I did see the muli user behavior I observed on a 2008 server recently, With multiple users accessing a single table, edits not committed to disk until the table is closed. Using the CFG Configuration|Init|LocalShare = True seems to fix it though.  This is behavior I would have attributed to bad ...

    Paradox 11 Runtime on 2008 Terminal Server
    I have a terminal server installation that has been running paradox 11 runtime.  All users on this installation access paradox through the terminal server. After running fine for the initial four months, I recently ran into a curuption problem that looked a lot like the old Oplocks of NT days or Terminal User settings of Win TS server 2003. I could watch two users viewing the same table, the edits of user A would not appear for user B after user A committed the edits and the table would get immediately currupted.  It looked to me that both users were holding the tables in memory and not committing changes to disk until the user left the table.  A single user could function normally in the application without curruption.  I tried a lot of things on that server to try to fix it including oplocks and terminal user reg edits, but I couldn't correct the problem. I recovered the entire server from a month old backup, prior to the start of the problem, install...

    Controling Chart Line Series properties in code
    I'd like to be able to control Chart Series line properties in code.  Specifically, I am trying to control LineStyle. Chartobject.Series.Line.LineStyle = NoLine works, but it only controls the property of the first series.  I have tried Series1 and a variety of other names, but I haven't been able to find a syntax that works.  I know there is one, I have used it in the distant past, but I don't remember the syntax and I don't find it in the help.

    It's embarassing answering my own questions, but here it is. Use ChartObject.currentseries = smallint to specify the series Then use ChartObject.series.line.linestyle = noline Paradox defaults back to a solid line at each open of an FSL, so I use a for loop in the open event of the chartobject to go through each series and specify a line style SS
