Great, thanks Dmitry!

Hi Dmitry

how could we create a form with only the "close" button (red button with cross) or without this button?

Hi,

yes, it works but it makes a step more in designing the tablegrid smile (we all are lazy guys)

Hi Dmitry,

I just realized that an important feature is absent from MVDB when using default "Search" feature with a button, there is no filter possible!

I was looking for simple way to discard some results in an easy way without writing an SQL query which is the purpose of MVDB and it is available in the Grid properties smile

Is it planned to implement a filter in "Search" by button?

Would it be possible to:

- Remove the edition feature from a report preview as when it is saved, all the report is messed up.
- Change the name of the preview window ?

How do you insert data in you database? Which size is your SQLite.db file?

Which method? Do you use specific scripts? Do you have an antivirus checking on access files?


@Dmitry

There is a very interesting post here, at the end: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3852 … -very-slow

Is it enabled in MVDB?

Thanks Dmitry,

for some reason, the "frxReport" works only on main form, I had to adapt the script to point to main form (SelectForm) so it looked like

SelectForm.frxReport.blablabla

I could manage 16 different reports on the same page which is the purpose of a database for me, getting dashboard reports in a snap. The report designer is just not very user friendly, though!

The last label at the bottom of the form does not calculate anything smile

Hi Dmitry,

would it be possible to have a list of all possible parameters we can retrieve using the command "Get" in a script?

Like "GetUserName" to retrieve the current Windows login name.

Is it possible to get the computer name? The network name? etc...

The last script does not work in 1.51.

I remember having the need to count the elapsed time to manage quarantine at some point but I was using SQL statement with "julianday" function:


select .......,

round(julianday('now') - round(julianday(<starting_date>))


from table

That's great but how do you do if you want to un-hide the 1st form? Let's say, on form2_OnClose --> back to form1 smile

Please find a simple example with one Table Employee and one table logs.

To see and edit the triggers, you will have to use an external tool SQLStudio
Have fun!! wink

There is a very interesting solution in this topic: http://myvisualdatabase.com/forum/viewt … p?id=1484. Reply 13
You would not have to use any SQL query at all


Otherwise a join is done using a relationship field in the tables

For example

Author                                   Origin                                            Title
id                                           id                                                   id
Name                                    Country                                         Title
Title                                       id_Name                                       Year
                                                                                                   id_Name
                                                                                                   id_Country


Select Title, Country, Name

from Title,
Author a,
Origin o
where
id_Name=a.id
and id_Country=o.id
and Title=something

But honestly, the solution from derek is the simpliest one

I think both application could be unified using tabs or forms and removing the letters could be done by script. There is no need for manual action and it is boring doing so!

Hi Derek,

the idea is there, thanks for the project.

The best would still be the "Wizard" mode where the user is guided through steps to limit input errors. I got feedbacks from the users after a beta release that there would be more tables, relations and fields needed...

Hi everyone,


@mr_d, the idea is there, I couldnot see any other option up to now and I wrote some scripts to achieve a beta version which, at least retrieves the correct information.

@derek, the use of the "Form1_TableGrid4_OnClick" procedure, a mix of search between grids and buttons and hidden comboboxes is very clever, I did not know these properties as it would have saved me a lot of time writing scripts. I will try to implement these features the best I can as quickly find the right info is the aim of this application. Thanks a lot.


My main concern would still to create some kind of wizard when it comes to input raw data to avoid people entering the wrong information into the wrong field.

The algorithm I imagine is:

User clicks on "Add" ---> pop-up with whether a droplist or radio button to select 1 kind of information ---> proper form displayed

I guess it can only be done by scripts but I am not affraid smile

It is very tricky actually to get multiple information which are linked by a key from different sources and display the required information separately.

It is much easier in a simple grid with an SQL query but here, the information must be displayed separately to get clear information on each level.



Please find a picture of what I mean by getting information from another grid automatically, the arrow indicates the source of the information (the key)
