As a newcomer to AlphaFive, I have been faced with a couple of relatively basic issues when using the software in the last few days.
Could someone shed some light about how to:
- Insert a .gif bitmap object (are only .bmp, .jpg, .png supported?)
- When adding our own customized form icon (via form properties), can't we simply browse and select the file? Do we need to use the code?
- Why when inserting a new bitmap object, the bitmap selection screen does not pup up automatically? Instead, we need to select the newly added bitmap frame on the form and go to properties to select the bitmap file.
- How can we autofit the content of a browse column to its content (same as �me.columname.columnwidth = -2� in VBA put on an "On Current" Event)
- How can we have decimals of a record shown only if they exist. For instance: 2.00 would appear as 2 but 2.25 would appear as 2.25. In other words how can we make the �.00� not to appear.
- How to insert a sub-form (or browse) which is not part of a �one to many� relationship with the main form.
- How can we change the source table/set of a form after the form has been created?
I have been trying to look at the User Guide and message board but could not find an answer to the above questions. My apologies for listing up so many questions at once.
if it is against the message board rules, please let me know.
Thank You
Thierry
