Samuel,
Sadly, this didn't do it!
I'm getting somewhat lost here. The forms and buttons are fine, each button calls Search_Surname and I know that what's entered is getting correctly sent. The...
You are not giving the reasons why you have this dbGrid. Peter, to look up burials in Stirlingshire as part of a genealogical study.
Are all records always to be seen from the start? As many as will...
Mike,
Good to hear from you after all those decades.
There can be few of us left who can remember stuff like 2E Macros! I presume by now that you have had the Queen's or King's Telegram or do...
Samuel,
Thanks for that.
One of the problems I have (one of a few!) is knowing where the 'hooks' are. Those of us old enough to remember the 2E Macros - I still have the books dated 1989 - will be...
Dennis,
There is nothing in the Grid that tells me when the data is loaded. The code looks like this after the normal DD stuff etc - it's all straight code:
Object oDbCJGrid1 is a cDbCJGrid
set...
Dennis,
Thanks.
I have looked at it but am unsure where this should be located - in the DD - in the Grid - your advice appreciated.
Kind regards,
Sandy.
I have a dynamic grid using a cDbCJGrid and containing 85,000 records. These may be constrained using a Form and Button. The data is such that it would be of help if I could then change the Index...
Thanks Samuel and Frank.
I should have said that I'm still using Windows - none of this fancy web stuff for us old timers! cDbRichEdit invoked and code added.
Can't believe still using...
Client running 19.1 wishes to have hyperlinks in a text field such that those reading the text could leave (by clicking the link) and return when finished.
Any advice appreciated.
Sandy.
Mike,
Thanks for advice.
I've only retired three times and am delighted to be still able to do a bit of work. There are parts of DF I have loads of experience of and other dark corners where I...

Luca,
Did you check in your .src that you are using Windows fonts? My 19.1 defaults to that.
The 8 pages all about DataFlex fonts and Windows fonts in the Help system say that...
Luca,
I spent more time trying to make "Set FontPointHeight to 16" work than I care to reveal on this forum!
Eventually, I abandoned that and used "Form_FontPointHeight" and it worked...
OK, The "How to Use Fonts in DataFlex" says:
Item 5 - If you want the control to resize based on the font, use the font interface (e.g. FontWeight).
FontWeight is Normal or Bold. How does this...
Garret,
Thanks - no , I've looked at this and it's not checked.
The inability of the designer to 'see' these is not a major problem compared with the aggro of mini-grids, which your code has...
I am getting to grips with using different font sizes in 19.1.
It seems that "Set pbUseWindowsFont to True" is the default and does not require to be explicitly declared.
In a dbform, "Set...
Garret,
Thanks, I'll try that.
Is there any reason for the font size to be missing from the properties? That would seem to be the logical place to find it.
Kind regards from Scotland,

I'm using 19.1 and looking at the new Windows font sizes. How they can be applied to a cDbCJGrid? I can't see anything in Object Properties.
Advice would be appreciated.
Kind regards,
Sandy.
A BIG thanks to all who responded.
Advice taken, all references to remote DD removed, foreign field added and all is well. Blood pressure now back into three digits!
Kind regards,
Sandy.
Peter,
Thanks. I'm about to have another go at this.
Kind regards,
Sandy.
Peter,
Thanks - I'll have another bash at this.
Kind regards,
Sandy.
Michael,
Thanks. This is where I'm at.
Yes, that's only there to show what's intended. The rest of this application is updating a System File and all is well there.
It's everytime I hit a...
Mike,
I removed all references to the Log DD - same error! The 'A' DD know nothing about Log - it's pure code as from days of yore.
Kind regards,
Sandy.
