Browse question

[DenCo]

I'm very new to HMG,, so overlook me please...

With Clipper,, I go back to the start ....

I tried to do the browse sample in the IDE tutorial ...

I'm using 3.0.35

I had problems,, too many to type here.. I figured best to ask overall questions...

I noticed the "browse" folder and samples were not in my "samples" folder...

I started reading here and it seems "Browse" has some problems ??

My main goal is to try and replace my Clipper TBrowse object that I have used for years ....

In Clipper,,, my TBrowse basically looks and acts a lot like Roberto's Edit.Extended sample.

For me,, if I can get a good grid/browse going ... I have the entire swap from Clipper to Windows done ....

In my Clipper programs,, a menu and a Tbrowse object with some functions and some Alt-* keys to run different jobs on the data are my entire operation.

Is Edit ok ?

I saw Roberto posting some updates today ... Should I go over to HMG4 ?

I tried to write a better explanation of this earlier,, when I hit submit,, I had timed out and lost the post ...

So,, retrying to ask this in a faster way !

I need a good "Browse" Idea or Class ...


Thanks

Hi DenCo,

You might want to look at the hmgDoc in ...\doc folder. It is a very usefull manual for all the controls available in HMG. Browse, though still supported, in somewhat superceded by grid control.

Hope it helps.

Thank you,, I had read a lot of comments and posts about Browse, and had
wondered if maybe something was wrong, especially when the mentioned sample was not in my copy of HMG.

I'll continue to study,,,
