Default Is this normal? - 10-12-2007 , 02:18 PM






I am diving into Paradox and ObjectPal and came across something that
seems weird to me. I have a project with lots of tables, forms, etc.
It is on a mapped network drive. If I copy the whole folder over to
my local drive, everything looks fine. But if I then copy that folder
across a VPN to my laptop at home, the code in at least one of the
forms is not the same code as in the original. However, the modified
date that Windows reports for that file is the same as the original,
as is the size of the file.

I am assuming that this means that the ObjectPal code attached to a
form is not in fact in the .fsl file itself. Is that correct? If so,
where is it? Anybody else seen something like this?

Thanks
Michael

I thought that only affected how much help the system offered, but
surely shouldn't modify my code?!

It affects which events show in the object explorer.

I've got the ObjectPAL level in Developer Preferences set to advanced.

On the production system, the following events have custom code:

- action
- arrive
- changeValue
- error
- keyPhysical
- open

On the copy:

- action
- error
- open


For those events, the code is the same in both.

You mean you can see the other events but there is no code in them? Or
the events are missing? Or just you are not seeing a blue dot?

The code IS in the fsl or fdl. Doesn't mean it can't get farkled in a
file transfer but it should be there if you had it in the original.

Doh! Thanks for everybody's attention, but the preferences was the
issue. I was looking on the production instance when I quoted it as
being set to advanced. It was set to beginner on the laptop. Setting
to advanced made everything look as it should. Sorry for wasting your
cycles.

Michael
