[BR_forum] Search with Grid / List

The keys are: 1) It doesn't work with a GRID, only with a LIST 2) The listview HAS to be sorted before the user tries to type into the search box. (You can do this by programatically sorting the list). 3) The you input from your listview and your sort box at the same time.   Other people have alread...

[BR_forum] OOP and BR!

I have. But not by making copies of libraries and procedurally modifying them.     I implemented as-true-as-possible OOP in BR When I designed ScreenIO.   Each Screen is a complete object that has its own events that get triggered, its own code and variables, its own user interface, and many other t...

[BR_forum] no line numbers

John,   I've already gotten rid of line numbers. And its free and available for everyone, and its an all BR solution, and it helps integrate with SVN, and it gives you Select Case statements, and #Define compiler directives, and much much more. ( http://brwiki.ads.net/index.php?title=Lexi )   And I'...

[BR_forum] BR 4.2 - ready for primetime?

Your input for the child window would detect any clicks on the parent window and then pass control (like GOTO) back to the parent window's logic. Then the Parent Windows logic would also have to detect any clicks on the child window and pass control back to the Child Windows Logic.   You could not h...

[BR_forum] BR 4.2 - ready for primetime?

Hey, thats a good point! I can see a use for PARENT=NONE windows even the way they work now, as long as the user doesn't interact with them. If I am just opening a window up to display reference information, I can do it in a PARENT=NONE child window, and they're free to open or close it as they want...

There are many uses for Non-Modal windows. But you're right, there is no easy way to achieve that from BR. Its possible using FKEYS and complicated logic but its VERY tricky.

[BR_forum] AutoIt

I use it to autogenerate PDFs from within my application under 4.1 and earlier without having to worrying about other limitations.   I just print the report using NWP (and place my logo on it and pictures and shading and grids and proportional fonts and colors.) I print it to CutePDF which is a prog...

[BR_forum] BR 4.2 - ready for primetime?

Parent=none gives you a window that is active, making the main program no longer active. Therefore the Parent=NONE window is not independent.   Clicking on the main BR window will cause the Parent=NONE window to disappear, and the user will think they are back on the main window again, doing whateve...

This makes sense and it looks like the easiest to implement in my current situation.   It seems like it will work fine as long as the first column and the last column in the CSV file are string fields.   Thanks Luis.   Gabriel On Wed, May 13, 2009 at 10:11 AM, Luis I.

[BR_forum] 4.2 and Next

Your first question:   next_pos is a variable. You are inputting to it using the INPUT command. It will contain a value after the input. ^user_entry looks like it works just like the "E" attribute.   Gabriel     On Tue, May 12, 2009 at 1:24 PM, Stephen Koger <steve.koger@m-a-c-s.com ( stev...

[BR_forum] Organizing Libraries

And (3) what I consider to be the main benefit of libraries - you fix a bug once its fixed all over your application suite.   Example, I fixed the speed problems in the FileIO library and now all the applications I have written in BR for the last four years all the sudden run much faster.   Another ...

[BR_forum] BR 4.2: STR2MAT and MAT2STR

Unfortunatly, the "C"s aren't really in my data file, I just threw together some sample data to demonstrate the problem. But you give me an idea. I wonder if I COULD get the CSV export to export a couple of blank fields or something first, so that any time I see a "<CR>,," I use ...

Thank you David, Luis, and George!   I'm particularly having a problem with embedded carriage returns in the data. These screw up the BR LINPUT command and the BR INPUT command.   That is, the CSV file will have something like:   "C",13,"Samual L Jackson","1123 S Davis St&qu...
