VFPX

Great Work Here!!

For reference, I am utilising the ctl32monthcalendar control included within the ctl32.vcx which is part of this download. I have found that if the control is on a form which also has an ActiveX control on it, and an OLE Exception Code 0 error is thrown for some reason on the ActiveX control, and an ON ERROR statement has been processed, then VFP "hangs". To resolve the problem, utilizing TRY, CATCH, FINALLY blocks around code that updates aspects of the ActiveX control resolves the issue.
I would like to know what causes the conflict with the ON ERROR statement in my code if possible. I have not been able to track anything down within the ctl32 code as yet.

Thanks again.

Hi Steve.
Who could help us to find what is happening is Carlos Alloatti (the Ctl32 creator), but I'm trying to contact him since November/2008 without success.

Thanks for the reply.

I have been trying to reproduce the behaviour described above with as little overhead as possible without success. My original statement was relevant to a very large project, so I think there may be other factors involved. When I have more information I will post it here.

In the mean-time I hope Carlos is OK!

Anyone have trouble with the explorer bar not showing the background color? I have the containers (groups) but my background is the form background color. I can cut and paste to another form and it shows the background color? Any clues?

Hi Toni.
There's an image control inside ExplorerBar and ExplorerGroup that stretch at runtime "to do" the background gradient.
Have you checked if some property of imgBackground in this two controls was accidentally changed or some method code in any control was overrided?
Have you changed the width of ExplorerBar or ExplorerGroup?

I am using the controls recently and I like more and more, but I made some "adjustments" that may be useful to someone:
Sometimes I prefer the control explorergroup outside the "container", directly on a form and fails because it always seeks methods in the container (this.parent.Scroll, etc...) to be used independently, I have modified all lines that refer to the object. Parent (ExplorerGroup.Clicked, ...) checking first if the container in which is has the properties / methods that are called:
IF PEMSTATUS (this.parent, "SCROLL", 5)
THIS.Parent.Scroll (. Top,. Height)
ENDIF
and so with each type of container (ExplorerGroup).
After I use the control ExplorerGroup, freely in any place of form.
Thanks.
