Our
next meeting is Wednesday, September
12. (Note the special meeting night, due to Rosh Hashanah.)
Tamar
Granor will do a Southwest Fox preview with her session “Drag
Your Applications into the 21st Century with Drag-and-Drop.”
Abstract: Users today expect to be able to interact with
applications by dragging and dropping. FoxPro has offered drag-and-drop
capability since VFP 3, but many developers have never worked with it. In fact,
VFP offers two separate approaches for drag-and-drop, a native capability and
OLE drag-and-drop, which allows you to interact with other applications and
gives you greater control over the process. In this session, we'll look at both
approaches and show both how easy simple drag-and-drop is, and the complex things
you can accomplish with it.
Also,
be aware that registration
is still open for the Southwest Fox conference
October 18-21 in Gilbert, AZ. Check out the speakers and topics.
