General Questions / Re: Any fix soon for IWB file ...
Last post by Rock Ridge Farm (Larry) - February 04, 2024, 06:08:59 AM
I am working on it but slowly.
Need to update some of the code it relies on.
Problem is that I need to boot an xp version and migrate it to a later version of windoz.
Problem there is that at each step I need to recompile with later version of vscode.
At each step new errors appear.
I am not a Windoz person and I am running it in Wine on Linux.

Enough of my issues. I am working on it.

Egil,

I know that Bill H would like to buy a new Laptop with Windows 11 on, but he daren't do it in case IWB doesn't play ball. He writes a lot of utilities for his work with IWB. And I also would like a new Desktop . . .

General Questions / Any fix soon for IWB file load...
Last post by Egil - February 04, 2024, 05:18:29 AM
I wonder if we can count on a quick solution to the file loading problems with IWB. I am afraid that this waiting in the unknown will result in losing interest in IWB, and users switching to other programming packages.
At the same time, Emergence Basic works perfectly well on machines that crash IWB. So sitting here wondering what the difference is in the source code for loading files for the two packages. But only those who sit on the source code can find out, but they have so far been rather silent. This worries me a lot.

Egil

Hi,

Slight adjustment to how the program is calculating the re-ordering of a prescription. Noticed that some re-order dates weren't being changed to red in the Listview. This one-line change does the trick. You will have to re-compile, though

Thanks, Egil,

I am already using that call successfully in my menus, but I can't seem to retrieve the handle of a Contextmenu in the Systray. Will keep looking . . .

I am using Fletchie's SysTrayIcon code

Maybe this page make things a little more understandable:
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/api/winuser/nf-winuser-setmenuitembitmaps

IWB doesn't work here anymore, so unable experiment myself.

Egil, thanks for that. I remember seeing that yonks ago. Anyway, I have just taken another look at Sapero's code, and - no thanks! I have no idea what he is doing there

Brian,
Maybe studying Sapero's code can help you?
https://www.ionicwind.com/forums/index.php?topic=2914.msg24202#msg24202

He made version both for Aurora and EB. Just search for Office Menu


Good luck!

General Questions / Contextmenu bitmaps
Last post by Brian - January 30, 2024, 04:12:18 AM
Hello,

In my latest program, I have a contextmenu, which I would like to add some bitmaps to, but not having any luck so far. Anyone any ideas, or code for me to look at?

Thanks a lot, Brian

Hello,

Done a bit of work on this program. It now sorts correctly, putting the first-to-renew prescriptions to the top. I did this with a hidden ISO date field, and sorting on that, so the structure of the MDB has changed from the other versions

I also took out a couple of sub-routines that were not needed at all. I pinched them from some other program I had that did need them, but not this one

There is also a print routine added to print a list of your prescriptions, using DDoc

All the icons and images, etc, that are needed for the program to compile are now in the 'resources' folder. The main MDB file and help file are now in the program folder

Pre-uploaded programs have been removed from the Forum, and are replaced with this version, now 1.3
