I'm not sure about TWBrowse class, for TCBrowse class though, you can experiment with the following:

Code: Select all  Expand view

:lNoLiteBar     If .t. No lite bar   
:lNoGrayBar   If .t. No gray bar   


Sounds like exactly what I need. So how do I implement using TcBrowse? I see it inherits from TWBrowse....but when I try to use the lNoGrayBar, i get a "TWBrowse" error...unless I am not doing it correctly?

oLbx:lnograybar := .t. ??

Greg,

Here is an example browse that uses both icons and color. Note that you can see the pink flag icon even when the record is highlighted. The flag icon column can also be sorted by clicking on the header. This is useful for sorting all priority items to the top.

The gray records show inactive clients and the red records show clients with past due amounts.



This was done with TSBrowse, a third-party browse. You can get a copy on my website. However, you can do something similar with TWBrowse.

In Fivewin's Samples folder, check the following to get some ideas; testtcbr.prg, testtcb2.prg, testtcb3, etc. You'll have to create your browse differently. You no longer can use REDEFINE LISTBOX FIELD...

If you created your browse using REDEFINE LISTBOX FIELD..., it'll get pre-processed into calling TWBrowse which don't have :lNoGrayBar data member.

oLbx:lnograybar := .t. ??

That should be correct. Anyway, if you're interested in following James idea of using TSBrowse instead of others, you'd find TSBrowse also has :lNoGrayBar

Hua....thanks for that info. perfect.

James,
TSBrowse is exactly what I have been looking for...opens up all the possibilities I want to implement.

I have never used 3rd party libraries, so this is new to me. I downloaded the TSBrowse and according to the instructions, I need to generate the libraries using the makelib.bat file. All I get though is an error message in the command prompt window... "RMAKE is not recognized as an internal or external command" (im running Vista). Can you guide me here? Thanks again for all of your help!

Greg,

RMAKE.EXE is the Clipper make utility program. I you have it, then it needs to be in a pathed directory, or put a copy of it in the same directory as makefile.bat.

If you don't have RMAKE.EXE, then let me know and I will see if I can come up with a new sbrowseh.rmk that works with Borland's MAKE.EXE.

James

Greg,

you can use this batch, just change the path and the language file

Most appreciated...should have posted that James and I worked it all out...turned out the culprit was in the BCC32.cfg file...missing include paths for FWH...AND....you can't have ANY spaces in the include path string...learned a bit on that one!
