PB 6.5.1 datawindows incorrectly appending wrong table name to columns
We recently upgraded our PB 6.5 to 6.5.1 and now we are continuously experiencing strange problems with datawindows. If you add a new column to a datawindow which has a select joining multiple tables, it will frequently append the wrong table name to the column. Removing the bad table name manually does not help, the column properties keep the wrong table name. Exporting and importing does not help. Computed columns randomly become invalid, even if they do not reference the modified or newly added field, and can not be manually fixed - PowerBuilder won't accept the change ...

Problems With datawindow scrolling in PowerBuilder 6.5 (and 6.0)
The datawindow scrolling functionality has been altered so that when scrolling through a datawindow using the thumb, it is possible to view the bottom of one page and the top of the next. This looks OK until a group is created in the datawindow that has its own heading. When scrolling as before, the heading remains in between the bottom of one page and the top of the next which doesn't look particularly attractive, especially if there are several items in the group heading. In 65Maint.txt document it says the following: "DataWindow Scrollbar Operation ------------------...

Datawindow Plugin for PowerBuilder 6.5 in IE5.5 SP2?
We have been using datawindow plugin Npdwe60.dll for a long time now and it worked just fine in both IE and NS. However, starting from IE5.5 SP2, Microsoft decided NOT to support plugins any more. Is there any news on how to overcome this problem? ActiveX version of plugin? Any other solution? Thanks in advance for any response. Leonid Borisov Tefensoft Where did you find out that MS doesn't support plugins anymore? -- Terry Dykstra (TeamSybase) Please state PB / OS / DB versions in your post.

MSSQL 6.5/PB 5.0.2 DataWindow Stored Procedure
PB ver. 5.0.2 & MS SQL ver 6.5 I am having problems using a DataWindow based on a stored procedure with MS SQL. If I include any arguments for the stored procedure, it fails with a SQLSTATE 22005 error "error in assignment". The same stored procedure in Sybase SQLAnywhere DB does not have any errors. We have no other problems with stored procedures exeuted from the application, only when used as the data source for a datawindow with MS SQL. Any input appreciated. Dana Riffe Primus Partners Inc.

DataWindow This, DataWindow That...
Blah blah blah You've heard it enough that you don't even want to comment on how many times... The DataWindow. ....but it can't be enough anymore...can it?

This includes Windowprogramming ( meaning the interface to the user: Windows, Sheets, diallougeboxes, etc.), Database operability AND Reporting!

datawindow
Add direct setting and getting capability for the datawindow where clause. This would have to be a string array in case of unions. Return ONLY the where clause(s) in the main select (in case of sub-selects, ignore the where clause or somehow list it as a subselect in the where or a subselect in the select). It would be great if I could just get and set this as a value and have the datawindow automatically change (or add) the where clause as specified. This is for setting the where clause dynamically at run time. Currently have to parse through the datawindow.table.select looking f...

PB 6.5
Friday, Oct 5, 2001 ------- I'm having a problem when joining two tables together within a single datawindow. After I join the tables, and come to the datawindow painter screen, I open up the Update Properties dialog, and all the columns show up in the Updateable Columns listbox, but to the right, there is always one column missing from the Unique Key Column(s) listbox, which happens to be a smalldatetime column. It doesn't matter what tables I'm joining, they all do it, and it's recreatable on other developers boxes. The workaround solution for now is exp...

ASA 6.0 and DataWindow Builder 5.0
Hi there, does anybody know how to configure PowerSoft's DW painter to use the Sybase Adaptive Server Anywhere 6.0 (ASA6.0) SQL dialect ? I'm developing an application with Power++ 2.1. The datawindows designed using the DataWindow Builder 5.0 (that came with Power++) run smoothly when accessing a local database engine (SQLAny 5.0). But when I'm previewing a datawindow that uses the same database running on ASA6.0, I keep getting syntax errors on datawindows that use 'left outer join' (syntax error or access violation: table name 'xxxx' requires a uni...

Concurrent perl 5.6.0, 5.6.1, 5.8.0, and 5.8.0threaded
Hi, So, I'd like to have multiple versions of perl installed on my system, for testing stuff, poking around, etc. It's not really that difficult, actually - you just arrange that they have different @INC directories (or that they overlap in the ways you want them to), and you make /usr/bin/perl point as a symlink to whichever version you want to use regularly (probably 5.6.1). Here's what I think I'd have, creating a few fink packages to manage things for me: * /usr/bin/perl5.6.0 - Apple's perl, unmodified, @INC is: /System/Library/Perl/darwin ...
