It turns out that the message is just informational. (False Positive)

Nifty!: I had a problem running the code, I ran your sample through ChatGPT, and it returned the following: I ran the code using a command like this: cscript Folder_Picker.vbs "d:\Rejections\" >d:\work\output_file.txt Option Explicit Dim strPath, objArgs Set objArgs = WScript.Arguments str...

I am looking for a utility that will display a dialog box and then request the user pick a folder.

I know that BR has the "NAME=OPEN:" command, but that is a FILENAME picker, and I only want them to pick the folder.

Does anyone have something that I could use?

David provided the magic formula!

pr date$(days(19700101)+timer/86400,'M/D/CY') = 8/16/2022

See: https://www.unixtimestamp.com/ Seconds Since Jan 1/1970 Also, TIMER is BR is the same value: Human Readable Time Seconds 1 Hour 3600 Seconds 1 Day 86400 Seconds 1 Week 604800 Seconds 1 Month (30.44 days) 2629743 Seconds 1 Year (365.24 days) 31556926 Seconds I didn't do the math, but you should ...

Nice tool! In our application, I create an environment variable that stores an encrypted "Hex Code." In the setup routine of my primary library, I check to make sure it's properly configured, and if not, then I trap it for "Unauthorized Use." Sometimes a sophisticated user will t...

I am sure this solution falls into the "Costs A Fortune" category: https://www.wycomsystems.com/

I particularly like their solutions because you lock the solution with two separate keys. Both the Manager and the operator need to unlock the device in order to print checks.

Your example reminded me why I don't use REC= for updating keyed files. BR is being helpful and is adding a NEW INDEX ENTRY, but it's also keeping the "OLD INDEX ENTRY" as well. I think that's a "Bug" and that BR should be deleting the original key information. If you run your pr...

I would try the program Gordon uploaded to see if it works in your specific BR Version. Here is a function we use to use "Keys" instead of "Delete Rec=" The program figures out the proper index based on the file handle passed, and then uses the key to read comparing record #s. Pl...

I think you are remembering ISAM. OPTION 5 is OFF - default to ISAM indexes. As I remember, if you don't specify indexing the file in the new BR will convert to the "new Index Format." Some people used to actually open an ISAM index as it was a "Special internal file" that contai...

My WAG: Provide user full administrator rights. Disable UAC I remember in the compatibility settings one of the options is "Run as Administrator" use that too! BR did a pretty good job of creating "Options" that make the most current release work much like BR 3.91, there are many...

We have been using Zoom for almost a year now. One of the things that I really enjoy is that besides having a "Paid Tier" they have a very functional free tier. Everyone at our office has a Zoom account. Most have the free tier that limits their multi-attendee (3 or more) meetings to 40 mi...
