Hi,
Some of my data has Serbian names containing    ć  which I need to convert to c.
The Hex UTF-8 bytes ( double byte code)  is C4 8B,  and the decimal is 267. Now I was using C48B$ = Chr$(267) and looking for C487$ in the field.
.... but Chr$ only goes up to 255 ... how can I get around this ?

The code I am using is  ... If X$ = C48B$ then X$ = "c"

So long as CHR$ is < 256 then everything is ok but when CHR$ > 255 I get a function error meaning I cannot have CHR$ > 255.

Thanks,

Mike

Hi,

I am not sure how to ask the question. I see __UI_FocusIn(TextBox) etc ... a lot of _UI_  where do I find what this means ?

Also Control(ID) .. this type of command as well .. where do I look ?

Do I need to read up on MS Visual Basic ?

Inform generates the skeleton of a program but I don't know what commands or functions to use to reference the boxes, extract the entered details and use this data. I would also like to pre-populate the boxes as well.

Do I just need to read the Inform Wiki and look at the 56 pages that are listed.

Thanks,

Mike

One more ...

where do I find  this call and others ??  __UI_FocusIn(TextBox) ...

Hi,

Just a couple of questions …..

How do I make a field display only .. show an error message

How do I create a date mask in a field  .. DD/MM/YYYY

If I want a field 30 Characters wide .. what do I make the field length

How do I start the form off in the middle of the screen

How do I include my own code as part of the build

How do I set focus for a field. When the form starts I want the cursor in a particular field (which may not be the first field)

What is tool tips ?

Why does QB64 start when I am displaying a form ?

I have found ‘old’ fields hidden under new fields .. can I find these ‘hidden’ fields easily or do I have to move every field to see if there is another field underneath it

Why doesn’t the Inform generate code for each field
I have 40 + fields but the code produced shows only..

SUB __UI_Click (id AS LONG)
    SELECT CASE id
        CASE formgainlinedataentry

        CASE enterTeamNameTB

        CASE player1SurnameTB

    END SELECT

Hi,

Why does QB64 show when I run an Inform program ?

Mike

One more .. how can I make the fields the same distance apart .. vertically and horizontally?

Hi,

I have 10 row of 3 columns. Each field should be the same width, length and height within the column.

Is there a way to quickly align them vertically within the columns and then make them all the same size within the columns ?

Also is there an Undo ??

Thanks,

Mike
