Hi, I am writing an iPad app with an image used for the background. I have two images. One for portrait and the other for landscape. I am also using MobGui. I was wondering if there was any easy way to load the correct image at development time depending on the orientation of the IDE? Or does it hav...

Hi, I am trying to write an app for the iPad and have the functionality of text to speech. I just need to have the iPad read out loud a simple text field. I am told that the rrenarrator can do this, but I can't seem to get the example to work. I have LiveCode 5.4 and Xcode 4.6. This is what I did: 1...

Hi, Hope this is not off topic for this forum, but it is related to databases. I am trying to use Andre's DBLib and I am running into a few problems. In his example he links a SQLite table to a DataGrid using two lines of code. put dbGet("contacts") into tDataA set the dgdata of control "contacts" t...

Hi Mark, Thank you for your message. I actually have the multiple choice testing GUI functioning the way I want it. Almost everything works except for: Being able to save data in the iPad simulator and on the actual iPad device. I would also like to be able to use Andre's DBLib to update the databas...

Hi Mark, Thank you so much for your message. I will check out your newsletters, and again, I appreciate your help. I actually have Andre's DBLib and I am trying to figure that out as well. There are two problems I am having with his DBLib and I know its all me. I am sure there is a way of doing it. ...

Hi marksmithhfx, Thanks so much for taking the time to code that project. I really appreciate the time you put into it. Its really different than what I was doing, so it looks like I was doing everything wrong. It will take me a few days to figure out what you did, but I really appreciate the help. ...

Hi Adrian,

Thank you for the tip. I just don't know how to do that. I am very new to Livecode and as my posts show, I am struggling with just about everything.

I will try to look up what you are talking about it.

Thanks.

Jim

Hi mwleder, Oops, yes I did get spell the tSQLQuery right. Typing too fast. Can I just ask you one more question? ..... for now at least. :-) In that example lets say I make a change in one of the fields like the first name, how can I make the recordset display the change without having to load the ...

This is actually the line I was looking for:   Put "UPDATE info SET name='" & the text of field "txtName" & "',address='" & the text of field "txtAddress" into tSQLQuery Put "',email='" & the text of field "txtEmail" & "' WHERE id='" & the text of field txtPrimaryKey & "'" after tSQLQuery // This li...

Hi mwleder and Adrian, Thank you again for your help. I really appreciate it. I think Adrian has the solution here, yet it still does not save. I think tho code will work, but I still think the final execute line may not be right. Put "UPDATE info SET name='" & the text of field "txtName" & "',addre...

Hi mwleder, Thank you for your message. What I am trying to do is to write some code that would allow the user to make a change in one of those 3 fields and then when the user clicks the Update button, the changes are saved to the database. I just don't know what the code is for doing that, and this...

Dear Klaus and sturgis, Thank you so much for trying to help me. I have spent a week trying to figure out things that you guys posted and I'm still having problems. Klaus, you said the following: somewhere in the card script? If not, then "sDatabaseID" is not known at this place, unless you declare ...

Hello, I am still trying to get how I update a record in a SQLite database, and I am getting nowhere. When I try to update a record, I get an "invalid connection ID error. I open the card with this code: local sDatabaseID, sRecordSetID I use this code to open the database and save the connection ID:...

Hi Klaus, you obviously did not take a look at UPDATE example in the "SQLite Sampler.rev" stack, where you can see a working example of the UPDATE syntax. Well, I actually did check this sample out and I found it difficult to follow. I would also say, its not exactly a "working example" since the ap...

Forget RealBasic, there is no equivalent to these commands in Livecode! Stupid question: Did you ever EXECUTE tSQLQuery? Not a stupid question at all. I don't think that I am doing that correctly. Here is the code I have. put "X" into Field "lblX" put fld "lblX" into lblX put fld "txtID" into txtID...
