I have installed Paradox 11 on my PC after many years of using Paradox 9. Everything working fine exept when I try to print anything at all. I get a "General protection" error message and the program crashes. Has any one had any experience and know of any fix to this problem?

Please could anyone tell me if there is a way to change the splash screen at the startup of Paradox 11. I did it V9 by editing the pxres09.dll file but cant find a similar file to edit in V11. I have seen one post on the buliten board about splash screen on Runtime V9 but this didn't work on Full Paradox V11... Any help or pointers greatly apreciated

Does anyone have paradox 11 runtime running on a Windows 2012 Terminal Server? I have a 2008 R2 TS server running paradox 11 RT fine, but I haven't seen a 2012 TS server as of yet. Thanks

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...

Hi Does anyone know if it's possible to change the icon of the mouse cursor? I want to change it to an arrow when hovering over a table, instead of the 'line' cursor. Thanks for any help!

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.

How to disable the Print Screen key in Microsoft Access

Hi everyone, I´m a network consultant of various small offices in Argentina that actually uses Paradox 8 over Windows XP. Paradox systems are mantained by a small team of local programmers. We just start to upgrade the workstations to Intel I5 / Windows 7 64bits (4gb of ram, maximum 32gb) Systems works Ok under Windows 7 64bits. We have read the article at /ASPSuite/KB/Document_View.asp?QID=101303 that says there is not 64-bit version of Paradox. In this case: - Are the new processor (Intel I5 here) a significative difference over the previous Pentium Dual Core?, - Are RAM upgrades of more of 3GB (eg: 8 / 16GB) fully used by Paradox Runtime?, , The scenario in this instalation is a centralized server (Samba/Linux) with Quadcore Xeon processor, Gigabit connection and 4Gigabytes of RAM. Can we optimize this server for Paradox with more memory? , thanks and regards!

Hi, New to this thread....just happy to see that I'm not the only one still using Paradox! I can't seem to get the sendkeys function in objectpal (pdx 11) to work with Vista.  Does anyone have a solution? Thanks. Todd

I moved a paradox 7 app from one working TS Win2003 server to another TS Win2003.  On the new server, it acted as if Oplocks was enabled, regardless of registry oplock settings.  The settings I am using are below along with a more complete descripion of the new server setup. Does anyone know of other Oplock related registry or TS settings I could try? When I have multiple users accessing the same table, users do not see each other's edits.  With User A and B in the table, User A edits and closes the table, B doesn't see A's edits, makes new conflicting edits closes the table and wipes out A's Edits.  I get the same result if install and run PDOXRT11. I got this installation working by moving the data from the TS D:\ partition to another fileserver on the same network.  My assumption is the TS server is not handling oplocks related function as intended, but the file server is. The new server: IBM XSeries_335, Win 2003 SP2 setup for a TS role, only three ...

I dual boot WinXP Pro X32 and Windows 7 X64 Pro on separate drives and run Paradox 11 from WP Office X3 on both.  I mostly use XP and  there are no problems with Pdox after those updates but when I went to use it under Windows 7 today the Project Viewer showed no files in the working directory. Until now there was no problem with the Windows 7 installation.  I uninstalled and reinstalled Pdox and then tried to set Project Viewer to the proper working directory and it crashes.  I've tried this several times.  If I open a table with Explorer Pdox will start and open it but if I try Project Viewer it crashes.  I went to check the BDE settings but I can't seem to find BDE in the control panel or anywhere else in Windows 7.

I am encountering an error when I try to post table data using a tcursor in ObjectPAL (Paradox 8.0).  System error reads: "An error was triggered in the 'postrecord' method on an object of tcursor type" --> "This record is not locked so the operation is invalid."  I'm not sure how the record would be unlocked. The main code is attached to a pushbutton event. At the top, I open a tcursor to a specific table (e.g., tc1.open(ATableName)).  I use some qlocates to search for and test certain dates and values.  Then I tc.close(). No problem. A little further down, I call a method that's also attached to the pushbutton object.  Inside the method, I open a differently-named tcursor to that same table (e.g., tc2.open(ATableName)).  I do some qlocates and later post some data to several different records in the table.    The data posts without a problem.  At the end of the method, I make sure to endedit() and close(). A...

hello, im using Microsoft XML Core Services (MSXML) to parse and create XML-documents. when i call certain methods of the oleAuto-objects, Paradox crashes when reaching the endMethod statement, (the code is in the pushButton event of a button). That brought me to the conclusion, that the problem could be the "releasing" of oleAuto-variables. so i´ve put the variable-declarations to the form. if i debug the code, the, GPF doesn´t appear at the endMethod of the Button anymore, but still occurs when exiting the program. So i might be right that the problem is where it comes to release variables.  Explicit close() orders of the OLE-objects do not solve the problem. Anyone got an idea? I really need that MSXML to work :-( Other MSXML-Methods work very well, like searching XML-files via XPath for specific elements etc. . here comes the code and the xml-files., the code validates the xml-file against the xml-schemafile, (code and xml-files are from the microsoft ...

I have used posts to this board in the past to resolve this issue, but recently installed WPOX5 on Windows7 machine and tricks that worked in the past on Windows XP do not appear to work in Windows7. I have cleared all of the registry entries of PdxRegCl and have disabled the Registry Cleaner in the start up of msConfig, but next time I start Paradox, Windows recongifures it and all of the registry entires reappear and the RegistryCleaner is back in the startUp. I cannot retain the working directory that was set in the last session and all of the established ALIASES are lost. Any assistance would be appreciated.

I have for quite some time been unable to access the "Import, Export and Table Repair" utilities on the paradox menus.  Endless uninstall, reinstall routines; checks for existence of files such as Tutility.exe, have failed to resolve the irritation of not being able to use these functions. Recently, I installed paradox on a laptop.  It is the same operating system  as the desktop, (XP)  Lo and behold the program worked fully, and well. ( But still not on the desktop) I notice that even when I have done uninstalls, cleans and apparently everything I can find  on my drives that relate to Paradox, when I reinstall, it still knows all the aliases that I had set up previously. Obviously, there are some files deeply embeded in my hard drives somewhere, that retain information about paradox. My question is, "where are they?" "what are they?" and "Might they contain corrupted files that could cause the problems?"  Interestingly, when I choose 'Import' from the...

Hi, I have recently installed Pdx 9 and 10 on a Win7 networked machine at work. Mostly no problems once I installed the win32hlp except with the project viewer which does not give me the right click edit option for forms, reports etc... Perhaps I am missing something simple? Best, Paul.

I'm trying to select records based on date; if I do the following it works Aux = "Citas"

dbTable =  ":Citas:" + Aux TempFile = ":Citas:##Temp" + Aux SQLVar = SQL SELECT * FROM ~dbTable WHERE

(FechaCita < '01/18/2013') endSQL

SQLVar.ExecuteSQL (PacData, TempFile) but if I try to use a variable for the date comparison it gives me an error (Type mismatch in expression):    FechaMaxS = "18/01/2013" SQLVar = SQL SELECT * FROM ~dbTable WHERE (FechaCita < ~FechaMaxS ) endSQL I also tried the following but it gives the same error: SQLVar = SQL SELECT * FROM ~dbTable WHERE (FechaCita < CAST(~FechaMaxS AS DATE) ) endSQL Could anyone tell me the correct syntax?  Thanks

Hi there,, , Does anyone know how to clear the text dispplayed in a combo box? Mine just holds the last value and doesn't overwrite it when I tab back to it ideally I want it cleared and ready for the next entry. , , I've tried setting .Text := ''; but it doesn't work even if I set it to '1'; it doesn't display a 1 only the previous value. The whole text line seems to be higlighted rather than just the text. Any ideas?, , Thanks, Mully
