... and then look at it relative to how it will be applied in the application. For example, some people return all values as type string, and thus numerics must be converted. It's easy enough to do, but everyone seems to handle it differently. Again, thanks for the answers. They are greatly appreciated.

Indexing 7 DBF's FW_CdxCreate() // WORKS !!! I tested index by index ALL numerics ( red ) don*t work ! //ORDCREATE( ,"TOPICNO", "DESCEND( STR( TOPICNO ) )", ; // {|| DESCEND(STR( TOPICNO ) ) } , .F. ) //ORDCREATE( ,"FORUM","STR( ...

... as much text (numbers, that's it) as you want, the limit is not set in 5 digits. Limitbychars is implemented only for character values, not for numerics. For numerics, appropriate control is TGet. GET is not a control that I like to use, because of its "fixed" spacings and lengths, ...

Numerics and dates are sorted in the order of the values, not as character values.
So the seeks can not be on the initial characters as they appear in the browse.

Numerics: Seek to the value next higher than the value entered.
Dates: Seeks to the value next higher than the value in YYYYMMDD format

Saludos amigos. Tengo un dialog normal con un Bitmap incrustrado. Sobre este bmp, creado con GIMP, he puesto algunos gets (char y numerics). Ahora bien, el problema es el siguiente: 1- Teclas UP, DOWN trabajan bien. 2- TAB trabaja bien 3- CLICK del mouse para cambiar de get, NO FUNCIONA. ...

... flow control. It offers great speed benefit [30-300%] over DO CASE flow control, but is restricted to comparing only constants. Constants may be: Numerics (only Integers, Longs), Single Character, Strings [much like in C], and any combination of the above using the following operators: +, -, & ...

... is easily answered: you already have nOre "returned"... actually assigned and not returned... PS: note that boolean, date, chars, numerics are always passed by value (unless @ is specified). "Complex" objects like classes, arrays, hashes etc are always passed by reference ...

... values of a row other than the highlighted record easily. * Enhancements: datarow.prg: Default edit dialog improved. Picture clause issues with numerics in Ado with some providers (eg.

... version 11 that works great for mobile devices and/or from any platform. With ADS encryption there is no need to manipulate field sizes, change numerics to chars, or any other quirk.

... password to be used in the encryption functions. With the above mentioned suggestions the database fields remains as you designed them (Date, Numerics, Memos, etc.). The drawback with the Encrypt() and Decrypt() functions is that, as James pointed out correctly, all fields must be character. ...

... decimals and the value is rounded to integer after editing. I do not say that there is any problem with Harbour. It is just that xbrowse's edit of numerics without picture clause is behaving diferently with xHarbour and Harbour. I am looking into xbrowse code and yet to come up with a satisfactory ...

... for differnet DBMSs. Most common are INSERT and UPDATE statements. It is not uncommon to see postings from new entrants asking how to format numerics, dates, etc to be used in such statements.
