Re: XIDE Adventure

Thank you both. It is a console app that I'm using to test some basic SQL routines.

Karl: That box is checked.

Wolfgang: I'll try to write an error handler based on the example you provided.

The adventure continues!

XIDE Adventure

When I run a test application in XIDE it shows a black error screen that quickly disappears.
How can I capture that error?
Is it saved somewhere? Is there a setting I've missed?

Re: SQL Test app

Thank you, Wolfgang, but I got the same result.
Here's a zip file with the project and the db in case anyone wishes to try.

Re: Best way to use Microsoft SQL database in X#

Wolfgang, Yesterday Chris Pyrgas talked me into leaving VO and I decided to take his advice. So if you grow weary of logging onto this forum every morning only to see another dumb question from me, blame it on our friend Chris. :) I tested the following libraries in a VO-exported application: XSharp...

Re: Migration xBase-Datenbanken zu SQL

I wrote this many years ago. Never fully implemented because I couldn't get everything to work in VO.

My strategy was to move the DBFs to a text/csv format and then import into the SQL flavor of your choice.

Do you mean the SQL classes in XSharp ? If you look up SQLConnection{} in the help file it says ODBC. O...

Re: DBF speed on shared drives

Wolfgang, I concur with your findings on terminal server (currently known as RDP or Remote Desktop). Under that setup all the processing is done on the server -- no network pipe except for the screen rendering. Which probably explains the performance advantage. One client has at least 50 login accou...
