We use a large, mission-critical VFP9 program from an outside vendor that is running properly on her system. If I mess with the runtimes the guy from networking may come after me - and he can run faster than I can. Lol The user is running XP pro SP3, I am pretty sure all of our servers are Win 2003. All of our data is in VFP tables, since they are not having issues with the big system which gets much more use than this app does I would say the network itself is OK.
This is one of many in-house-produced VFP apps, but the only one this user runs. The way they have always done things here is they copy the runtime files to the same directory as the executable, they say that if the files are in the same directory as the exe then the program will use those rather than the ones that are listed in the registry. I'm not sure that is right... can anyone confirm that? If that is so then that removes runtimes from the list of possibilities; if not that is something I will look into. The user just told me she IS getting this error in another, unrelated form as well. At least she told me that before I re-wrote the form she said previously was the only one the error was occurring in. Her machine is also very old and slow, I've asked if we could get her an upgrade but I'm not holding my breath for it as the wheels move pretty slowly here. The footprint of the app is pretty small, although that doesn't mean VFP isn't taking more memory than it needs. Lol Everyone runs the same managed version of AV (ESET NOD32). Hadn't thought of packing the project files (thanks Ted), I have packed the data. Thanks for the ideas... I'll try just about anything at this point. :) Lou -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Richard Kaye Sent: Wednesday, November 10, 2010 10:08 AM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: VFP9: Data validator error? What OS/network? In addition to Fred's suggestions of insuring that the runtime version on the workstation in question match your build, you could also put new copies of the runtimes on there and see if that resolves the problem. -- rk -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Lou Syracuse Sent: Wednesday, November 10, 2010 12:54 PM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: VFP9: Data validator error? Well I'm back on this one. But I think I've reached a dead-end.... The user is still getting it intermittently. I copied the production data to my machine, and of course I can't reproduce the error no matter what I do. I've run the Exe in production, copied the data to my system and run the exe locally, within VFP, and run the source code inside VFP.
