I have a website with a MySQL database hosted by a budget hosting
company.
My (cheap) ISP will not GRANT me rights to access my MySQL database
using ODBC from 'outside'.

What is the command for promting user to enter the date, once it is
entered save that value to variable.

Given that the FoxPro team has been disbanded,
can anyone tell me exactly who is working on
VFP9 SP2?
TIA

I'm using AERROR() and the error # and description are 1099 and "Procedure
Canceled". I cannot find any reference about the error 1099 at all.

What different does a compiled binaries(EXE) from a project which include a
database in the project (Data Page) ?

In my apps, I read disk serial number for copy protection purpose (yes, I

Problem is, if the current windows user doesn't have Administrator
priveledge, then he serial number will return as empty string.

Is there a tool that I can use to access a free table and generate an
SQL script that will enable me to create the table in an SQL database?
thanks

Hi to everyone, I have a Grid,and works fine with fox 9.0 and SQL
2005, but I dont want insert repeated values in the grid, cause my id
is a primary key, so when I save the program show a error of ODBC.
Any Idea how to seek into cursor before to add a new record.

Given a table contained a record:
a                    b                        c
================================
a1                  xyz                    (memo)

It is possible to make gant diagrams with foxpro?
Thank you.
Rosana.

I often use browses to debug and check out complex SQL sequences.
I saw something a bit odd tonight.
    Some of my debug browses (just plain browse with no parameters)
displayed a title of the title of the form used for input parameters
