Peter Dissing |  RE: printerSetCurrent() VERY slowWe use PrinterSetCurrent() all the time, but only by printing to a PDF-printer it takes long. I do not belive it has anything to do with the syntacs, but the generating of the pdf itself. Maybe you could try to change the PDF-software to another which execute better. We use PDFCreator which is good, but not very fast., If you have a lot of graphics on the report, try to remove it and see if it improves. , /Peter, |

Peter Dissing | Barcode only works with asterisk Hi
We want to bring our order-number as a barcode on paper. The number is an Integer in the field. For this we use a Code 39 font, and the barcode looks all right on paper, but can not be read by the scanner. Only if we change the field to Alpha and put in * as start and stop character it works. Any idea how to aviod the asterisk, and anyone who knows a font where it works 'out of the box' ? Can the setup for scanner be changed ?
Using PDX11.
Best regards
Peter 
larry_rutledge | Well, to produce a properly formed bar code, you have to follow the required specs (asterisks, etc). Most scanners/readers will detect the bar code type and only return the value (the number you actually wanted coded). So yes, you need to convert the output to string to produce the barcode.If your bar code scanner/reader is passing the raw code data to you (including the asterisks, etc) then you will have to parse that out and get to just the val... |

Peter Dissing | RE: Barcode only works with asterisk Mike / Larry
Thanks for your comments. Have read the idautomation site, and testet the C39M font Version 3.07, without any luck. They have ActiveX Barcode controls for some different software, but not for Paradox. I tryed to install one of the .ocx files, but it worked badly and only in forms, and not reports. At the end it went into General Protection Error. We could change the values by using strings and put in the asterisks, but when we want to scan it again, it would corse problems.
Mike - I would be very interested to hear which font you have used.

Peter Dissing | Subtract records in a Query How can I make a QBE that gives me the records of partno in table X which is missing in table Y ? , The Utility -> Subtract gives me the result, but I want to do the same in a QBE. , I have the same field: "Partno" in both table X and Y. , If I run a query on partno in table X and Y I get the partnumbers which are in both tables. How do I find the ones which are not in table Y ?, , Regards Peter 
dulcaoin | That is what is known as a "not-in" query., , The User's Guide used to have an example of this in the section titled "Retrieving records from one table that aren't in another table", in the chapter on Queries using groups, sets, and inclusive links., , The rumor (as I heard it while in training at Borland) is that a Borland engineer at a User's Group meeting (or conference, not sure which) was asked how to do such a query, and told the audience i... |
