Thanks Klaus ! That did the job. - John

Good Morning All, I am feeling rather stupid this morning. I have been using runtimeRev/LiveCode for years, and I am stuck on what should be a fairly simple task. I have a list of customers, and I want to use the "filter" command to pull out the lines of that list that contains a specific name such ...

Mark, Here is my main query code. How would I compact this into one long query? Thanks, John put "SELECT itemNum,name1,class,cost,name2 FROM icitem" into dbCommand put revOpenDatabase("ODBC","Company 0",,"UserName","Password") into dbID -- databaseID put revQueryDatabase(dbID,dbCommand) into rsID pu...

Klaus,

The standalone stack is NOT password protected. Is there hope?

Greetings All, I have a mess. I wrote a database stack that had some pretty sophisticated scripting. I have a number of copies of the compiled stack, but I cannot find the original code anywhere. Is there a way to retrieve the script from a compiled stack? Your help is much appreciated. Sincerely, J...

Mark,

I am completely confused. Is this a function of the ODBC Query, or is it a LiveCode scripting issue? What LiveCode command/function would I use to pass such a query? I'm not sure how to proceed.

Thanks,
John

Mark,

Try what???

Greetings All, I use a program I wrote to access a company database on a server using OBDC. My program creates special reports from the database. If I run my program on the server, it performs the queries very rapidly. However, when we use the program on a desktop connected to the server, the whole ...

It's a great day to be using LiveCode !!! I am trying to record a sound file as a movie. This works on my Mac, but doesn't under Windows XP, Vista, or 7. LiveCode is loading quicktime at launch, and I am able to play files, but when I try to record, I get "Error -231 Starting Recording." I am using ...

Max, I had a problem like this. I tried to use LiveCode's record command, but the sound was terrible. Then I experimented with the various recording settings. Now, I get pretty good recordings inside LiveCode. The code I use is attached below. Best Regards, John Miller on mouseUp set the recordInput...

Greetings All, Klaus put me on to Trevor's EnhancedQT external. I have been able to do amazing things with it. However, I don't seem to be able to get "qtAddTransition" to work. The script I am using is below. Can anyone confirm that this does or does not work. Am I doing something wrong. All of the...

Klaus,

Thanks for your speedy reply. Initially I couldn't get your suggestion to work. However, I tried changing the name of my "Plugins" folder to "Externals" and now it works great.

Thanks again,
John

Klaus, This looks like it might be just the thing I need. However, I don't seems to be able to get the plugins to load when live code starts up. I put the "EnhancedQT.dll" & "Enhanced.bundle" files into a folder ~/Documents/My LiveCode/Plugins. I told LiveCode to check in ~/Documents/My LiveCode for...

Greetings All, I am working on a little project for my grandkids. I want to take audio recordings (saved as .mov files), combine them with corresponding jpeg images to create many little quicktime movies. Then, I want to combine all my little movies into one big movie. My problem is this . . . some ...

Greetings All, I am trying to access the purchase history of inventory from an OBDC compliant database located on a server. If I place the database on my computer, livecode will access the database and return the information in less than a second. However, when the database is on the server, the sam...
