Record Locking

Record Locking is treated as an I/O error, and as such is retried several times. To make things worse, the network tries a few times as well. 15 seconds sounds about right. I know you are using a local machine, but that still follows these rules. In theory, this helps to reduce problems because the ...

NAME=OPEN

I am looking for some documentation about a really nice feature in BR 4.18.

00010 OPEN #1: "name=OPEN:.,recl=1,shr",EXTERNAL,INPUT IOERR 100

The above line will return either an error if they cancel, or FILE$(1) will return the name that the user selected.

WSID=UNIQUE

I tried it just for Kicks! It's not a bad solution! The primary problem is each session takes a BR license. I was able to quickly open 20 BR sessions, my startup calls for -72 (WSID=72), and it worked for the first session, each subsequent window was assigned the next available WSID (73,74,75,76,......

CHM Files - Remember to "Unblock" After saving the

Due to Microsoft Security, a CHM file that is downloaded (Even from a Zip File), will be "Blocked".

The answer is simple, save the Zip file to a location (I use my desktop). Right Click on the Icon, Select Properties, and then "Unblock".

I remember that a "Small Bug" was found with the initial release.

A=A-1 correctly converted to A-=1

A=A-5-1 converted incorrectly as A-=5-1 instead of A+=-5-1 or A-=5+1

It caused some interesting problems!

Surprisingly, it did have an effect.
Without the "T", the tab did not stop at the radio buttons.

I did notice one very strange thing.


Susan had

This changed the "Tab Behavior" to work the way you would expect (Tab worked).

I would have expected

...;10,10,radio 8,1,T,21;...

Doesn't the "T" attibute go in the attribute field?

I also found it very helpfull when "Merging" or "Proc" external libraries. Temporarily, it's nice to allow the code to import.

WHOAMI is an external application (Someone else probably wrote it).
I have a strong suspision you are running in 64 bit more, and WHOAMI.EXE (??) is a 16 bit application.


Either way, run WHOAMI.EXE at a dos prompt, and see what you can see.

Both are good advice. There is a nifty option for RDP: %SystemRoot%\system32\mstsc.exe /console Add the "/console" to the end of whatever the icon already points to, and it will invoke the "Console", this is essentially the same as logging directly into the console. It also has t...

MyEDIT BR - Automatic Updated.

It seems that the Update process does not work properly under RDP. We have 3.1.0.3166 installed on the Terminal Server. When attempting to install I am notified there is a new version, but the update never installs. I downloaded myeditbrv3setup.zip and extracted MyEditBRSetupV3.exe Then I used the R...

Now that you mention it, yes, just a new “Mask Symbol” would work fine.

SPIC sounds like an interest “new Feature”. TAKE SSN$=”123-45-6789” RINPUT FIELDS “10,10,SPIC(**-**-####)”:SSN$ The point is SSN$ would be displayed as **-**-6789 and allow the operator to view/edit the data without actually knowing the original value. If the operator wanted, they could type an enti...

We started using 4.2 for our in-house support application.

A few OPTION statements, and it’s been working like a champ!
