Hello folks,My name is Paul Barfoot. After reading what  great coding skills many of you have my opal skills seem so very limited and perhaps of limited or no value. I have written some Applications using Paradox 7 then delivered with Paradox 11  for use with Paradox 11 Runtime. I am 67 and have about 5% vision due to RP and that has rightly or wrongly kept me from expanding my skills and being chained to the keyboard even more than now., I have a simple personal accounting program and Last Will App on my web site that Iwould really like someone to look at. A local Accountant said he couldn't get it up and running so he couldn't appraise it. so I'm wondering if I should forget about it.If anyone has the time to check them out that would be  a boost. Even if you consider the applications worthless. I need an honest opinion. I have used the accounting program fro years so I know it works just fine.www.pkwapps,caCheers,Paul aka Pkw

I found Prestwood several years ago but I never introduced myself.My name is Daniel and I've been coding in Delphi on and off, but mostly on, since 1997. At the time, COBOL and BASIC was what I was coding in a client-server environment, before most people even knew what nTier architecture meant. Heck I didn't know, but was doing it.Someone in another department came up to me, presumably after seeking permission from my manager, and asked if I knew Delphi. I said, knew what? Having never heard of Delphi I said no, but was anxious to do something new, so I was transferred to the other department.I didn't what the future was for Delphi and it wasn't to be a .Net, however, Delphi has found me and paid me well over the past decade point five.Take care and talk to you later.

I just migrated from 9 to 11 under XP.  I have a report that prints a phonograph record album and counts the tracks if I have updated the contents of the album.  Under 9 the report shows "0" if no tracks are available.  Under 11 it defaults to "1" when no tracks are updated.  Can anyone help.  Dick Hill

My name is Dick Hill and I have been using Paradox and it's many iterations since prior to 4.  I use it to catalog a large jazz & blues record collection.  I do the album/cd inventory and then itemize each track by session date, artist etc. To date there are over 100,000 track records (no pun intended)! I just migrated from Paradox 9 to 11.  I have a report that lists an album and counts the tracks if I have added them.  The report now shows a 1 when no tracks are available.  A null count is returning "1"?  Any help here.  A new service pack?

Thanks in advance. Dick

Hi need help with Paradox Distribution Expert, I saw a link but seems like the link is borken.  Any help in a direction would be helpfulthanksbob shin,

I have used the prestwood boards a couple of times in the past to find solutions to compatibility issues for the version of paradox I work in and decided it was time to join the board and contribute. I've been working in Paradox 7.5 since, well 1995.. I Started in paradox 4.5.  After 5 years maintaining and developing quality control apps for my employer at the time,  Database consulting blossomed into a full time carreer for me.  I have been self employed as a freelance developer since 1999.  I have managed to stay in paradox 7.5 with brief forrays into 8 and 9.  Those forays were because a client bought into the newer versions, not because the 7.5 version couldn't do something they wanted it to.  Since 7.5 has been a strong performer all these years, I have not encouraged my clients to move up the ladder yet.  I prefer the borland environment, but would be interested in hearing about advantages corel has added since they t...

Hello, , , I am Edwin Tuazon from the Philippines. I am a software engineer in a leading manufacturer of a high speed analog to digital signal processor and converters., , I am developing applications in Paradox and Visual Basic., , I happened to be here in Prestwood because I am searching for a material that could help me install my Paradox 7.0 to my new Windows 2000 OS., , Currently I am having problem installing it because everytime I run the install program, Paradox keeps on saying that I need at least 1440 kb in my hard drive even though I still have more than 3 gig space left in my hard drive. PLEASE HELP!!!

Computers are and addtional duty for me. As part of that I manage a WAN running Netware 5.0. We have about 40 users and use Paradox 9 for several different applications. I started severaly years ago with 3.5 for dos then went to 4.0 for dos and later to 7 for windows and finally to 9. I consider myself an intermediate programmer. I do about 80% of what is needed here and go to a local "expert" when I need him. The forums are good. Gives you an insight into what other people are dealing with on a daily basis and oftentimes I pick up ideas

What a great site, I am a programer and own a retail computer shop in Ashburton, New Zealand, , I enjoy playing with Delphi and have written some farming software that records what is done to their crops on a per field basis, , it is selling really well because it is not to costly, , Again this site looks really good, , Owen

Greetings! Found this from a friend. I know a little about a lot. Currently developing proficiency in paradox. And to cut through the chase, I am asking my question right here!, Paradox10, Windows XP, I need to assign a value to a command button's label by using a string variable...such as variable declared str1 as string, command button label name is lb1. I need to have a counter and build the label name as str1 made up as "lb" + counter and then assign the value such as str1.value = 594., Any suggestions??, , Thank you all!!

Sorry for my poor english.My name is Thammanoon Semapru.I am 27 years old. I come from Thailand. I want to be a good and intelligent delphi programmer.  I learn delphi by myself. Now I work with PCSC (GSM SIM card 2G, 3G, CDMA). Thanks.,

My name is Max B. and although I'm not new to PSD - I am new to these boards / forums.  I've been programming full time for the last 10 years  - I started back in the mid 80's with R:Base and Basic - and then moved to VB in the late 90's.  It was about 10 years ago when I first became acquainted with PSD - as I had changed to Paradox and before I forget - wanted to say Hi to Scott and Dan if they're still around --- as they were both instrumental at that time.I now do most of my programming in VB .NET and SQL, So - it's good to be here.Max,

Greetings from cold and wet Dublin! I'm joining this group in the hopes of learning somehting about Paradox. I find myself in a position of supporting an old but heavily used system, and although it appears to be pretty stable, have the odd issue now and then. Been figuring things out on my own..but some things I just don't know where to start. I myself am a SQL Server DBA who also currently does Lev 4 Dev support and some good old fashioned web development (asp classic), so I'm not completely useless :) Cheers Shellbot

Hi there, I'm Kefkolo (aka Kirk), A friend sent me the link here after I told him my goal of learning Asp.net and C# by the end of the year. I'm sort of new to programming. I took Assembler and Cobol in school back in the dark ages. I know HTML, CSS and a scripting language from Macro Express. But that's about it. I hail from a suburb of Dallas, Tx. Married with three kids and 4 grandkids. One of my sons is a programmer. I just want to say to all you skilled programmers I really appreciate your helping us newbies. And to all the newbies, I hope you enjoy the ride as much as I'm planning to. P.S. Mike, I'll try and get my picture posted as soon as I get one of myself on the computer. :-)

Hi, I am a programmer that has been using Delphi2006 (Pascal language) for about 6 months learning the client side.  I am now trying to convert the system I created to the intraweb.  I must admit that I'm finding it alot different and tougher than I had expected, which is why I've decided to join this Delphi forum.  I am confused.......ALOT!! I enjoy working with Delphi more so than other languages I have used and hope that this forum will help me to understand and enjoy the intraweb part just as much.  Thanks!!!

Hello all out in Prestwood landMy name is Daniel Kram. I live in Milwaukee, WI, but if you Googled my name, you would know where I live, so I just saved you some time. (grin)I am a developer in over 10 computer languages with about 20 (ugh) years of experience. Go ahead, you can guess my age now. My primary languages are Delphi (aka Pascal), HTML, XML (if you call it a language cough), and coming up on C# and .Net architecture/framework. I also use Dreamweaver as well as Visual Studio, but I think I am leaning more towards Dreamweaver. I have also done about 3 years of Java, but none lately. Lots of SQL and just now, I am beginning to refactor a MySQL Delphi project to ElevateDB., , I manage a few web sites, none too fancy or anything, but hey, they get the job done.I would like to become an active member here in any area I can be of help.Hope to talk to you soon - well not everyone all at once...

Hi folks, , I am not a professional programmer, but I am programmed with Paradox since 1995 (with the first version for Windows) a single application (for the property market) which today has hundreds of thousands of lines of code., , Today, after so many years, i dare to come into contact with you to make the following query:, , Is there a activeX image processing control (simple and cheap) suitable to include in a Paradox 9 form?, , Only need resize, rotate, resize the canvas and optimize JPG images for the Web., , Thank you very much.
