Hi Mel.

>Where you been lately (the beach, on bike)?

Right on the spot. Went to Buzios (Rio de Janeiro) for a couple of weeks. Came back and had lots of Fox26 stuff to do for my clients, and didn't get much time to come here and chat. I'm starting my CodeMine convertions again today, as for the day after tomorrow I told a client I'd deliver some of the reports ready to run in the converting application.

>Care to share with a fellow CodeMiner where you did this?

Of course. I got the developers version, so I got all classes and was able to change some methods where frx2any uses a wait window to show its progress. Found where the percentage was incresed and called CM progress bar instead, with my own Portuguese message. Clients think I'm so clever when I show these things ...
Once and if you get it, let me know and I'll show you exactly what I did.


>Are you still happy with this product? I was just getting ready to order the AmyUni products - but it seems like Frx2Any has continued to upgrade this product that it is looking attractive to me.

Don't know the AmyUni products, but now I'll try and have a look. Where are they ? But about frx2any, I'm happy with it, it delivers what promises and they do keep working on it. Got 3 or 4 upgrades for free since I bought it. There are some performance limitations for large reports, but I think it wouldn't be the case for converting such reports and e-mail them, but it's doable, so if it's necessary, it is there. The results are almost 100 % WYSIWYG. If you don't purchase the developers version it seems you get a message every conversion about copyrights, and I've seem some users complaining about it.

There's also a great ReportViewer, which has a Search feature, and the users can search any word in the whole report, very useful in some cases. You can also customize the Print Toolbar ! I put this in my system as an Advanced Print Preview.


>Any other things I should be aware of with it using CodeMine?

Can't remember of major problems. I even put some code in the Report method of the forms that does a PrintScreen, so that now the print button of the tbrMainToolbar works as a PrintScreen button, and with frx2any the users can e-mail any form directly or export them to word, excel, bmp, rtf or pdf.

Hope I helped in some way.
If not, keep asking, I sometimes need to work under pressure.

Nice to hear from you.

Best.
Ivan
