I haven't used menuItems much but I don't think each menu item has individual properties because they exist in a list. Try changing your code to look something more like this: if demoRunning then disable menuItem i of button "someButtonName" else enable menuItem i of button "someButtonName" end if

The keyword OF is missing between enabled and menuItem. Try:

As Klaus indicated, the polygrid is easier. Start with the polygrid and see if that fills your requirements. If not, then you can move to the datagrid. The datagrid is very powerful but can also be a bit fussy or slow at times so you really need to experiment in your learning process of the datagrid...

Hi Lemodizon, Looking at your code, keep in mind that you are using pgText not pgData. With pgText, think lines and items not arrays, elements and keys like you would with pgData. So, in lieu of that I would use something like this, assuming that the quantity column is the first column and you have ...

Using a combobox might be easier then using a popup menu. The user can type in an unlisted value from the combobox and you can handle the closeField event in that case to ask the user if they want to add it to the option choices. I've attached an example stack of what i'm talking about. I hope this ...

Hi Paul, At first glance, I believe it may be an inner quote issue with the first put statement. Try this: Put "<div class=" & quote & "alert alert-danger" & quote & " role=" & quote & "alert" & quote & ">" Also, when posting to the forum, you should always post your code inside of the code display ...

Yes, of course. This is way oversimplified but you'll get the idea. Assuming your developing on and for Windows... local tDatasource put "Driver={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb, *.accdb)};" & \ "DBQ=c:\your\path\to\your\database.accdb;" into tDatasource local tUsername put "Admin" into tUsername loc...

Hi Tom,

No, not directly. You need to use an ODBC driver via DSN or use a DSNless string. I use it all the time but prefer the DSNless string option because one does not have to setup the DSN on each machine.

One can also use the project browser to click and drag the controls up and down on the card to the desired tab order. It is a lot easier then having to click on each control and enter a layer number.

Has anyone encountered a data type mismatch error when trying to set datetime columns to null through a parameterized query via ODBC. It looks like there may have been some issues in the past but I did not find any definitive resolve regarding it. Thank you for any help or work arounds you can offer...

Have you tested connecting through ODBC from another application besides LC such as Excel or Access?

Just as a test, try using a DSN-less connection and see what happens put "DRIVER={Progress OpenEdge 11.6 Driver};HOST=JFH1;PORT=2701;DB=gams1;UID=jmorg;PWD=" & tDBpword & ";DIL=0" into tDatasource put revOpenDatabase("ODBC", tDatasource,,,) into gConID I rarely use user, system or file DSNs anymore ...

Are you using LC 32-bit as well?

Remove the VALUE keyword and parenthesis from the parameters in your UPDATE sql statement. Try this instead. put "UPDATE " & tTableName & " SET HighScore= " & " :1 " & "WHERE UserName=" & " :2" into tSQL I would also recommend simplying the statement to something with less concatenations like this p...

One might want to consider this method as well. I'm not sure if it will make any difference.
