datawindow.column.count not returning the column count of a datawindow
I am having problems with the datawindow.column.count property of a datawindow. It just started happening with PB 6.501 and still works fine in PB 5.0. The function that looks at this property is in an ancestor userobject. The dataobject is assigned at this point but all other properties of the datawindow are missing. Any suggestions? Don't recall, but was it still dwDescribe() in version 5.0? If it was that may be your problem.

DataWindow.NET
I'm using DataWindow.NET 1.5.1 9004 on a Windows XP Professional SP 2 machine with the latest Microsoft Update patches. The release notes indicate that change request 385532 is corrected.

If I configure my computer to use a Windows Classic theme the border is rendered as expected. Is there something else I need to do to get the datawindow object column borders to render correctly when using a Windows XP theme? Ken Are you using 3D Lower...

Totalling computed columns in datawindow
Hello all, I am trying to do a grand total in the summary band on a computed column and get zero as the result. The computed column I am trying to grand total is called compute_15. Compute_15 does this: adj_production - (compute_10 + compute_11 + compute_12 + compute_13 + compute_14 + compute_19 + compute_20 ) I have tried the cumulative sum, the regular sum and other combinations but still keep getting zero. Does anyone know why? Is it because of all the computes in computed column 15? Is it even possible to total a computed column? thanks for the input Melanie --...
