Thanks everybody! I have some great input to go on now! I have sent the client a few questions to clarify some issues so that I can figure out the best way to proceed. Thank you all so much. I'll be back for more later

Completion Code for MyEdit

I was wondering if anyone has updated the completion code for MyEdit for the newer versions of BR.

It is stored in: syn_wbs.ini (There are actually a bunch of these, but the one in the completion code folder).

RTF Report writer

At the conference in San Antonio the queston arose on my RTF report writer as to whether it supports the MASK facility in BR. At that time it did not.

I have modified the library and the current version supports filtering by a) an external array passed to the function
b) selected items selected using the Windows convention
c) selected items derived by the MASK statement for lists and grids
d) a combination of the MASK statement and items within the MASKED arrays are selected using the Windows convention

The updated library is on the ADS FTP site in the BR_PUB directory under the 430 sub folder. That folder also includes the latest FNSNAP.dll and utilities required by the RTFLIB.dll. They should all be stored in your vol002 directory under WB.

THis library requires BR430.beta-yg or better.

WBServer vs. BRServer

According to BRWiki.net BRServer is the new name of the WBServer brconfig.sys statement. However I don't think BRServer works. Is the wiki wrong?

Well since it's for grid entry it wouldn't meet my need - We've been discussing textboxes.

Happy birthday George! Since your BRGroup friends can't be there in Boston to surprise you at Durgin Park as we did in the past, I hope your day with your family is lovely as you all celebrate the day you were born!

Transportation to/from the airport - HEADS UP

Hi all,

In case you didn't know, the San Antonio airport is almost 10 miles from our hotel. There is no free hotel shuttle, so it will be up to you to get yourself back and forth between the airport and the hotel. I checked online and they estimate that the average ONE WAY taxi fare (if you aren't sharing the cab) is $25-29, not including tip. I see that there is a shared ride van type of shuttle available too that is cheaper. I just tested a reservation and it priced it at $18 (excluding tip). I may try that myself - not sure yet.

But you may want to go online and do a bit of sleuthing before you arrive.

Also, remember that there are TWO Drury hotels on the Riverwalk and both are on the same street (confusing, right?). You want the Drury PLAZA. The address is 105 South St. Mary's St. San Antonio.

P.S. If you don't already have my cell phone number (it's been the same for decades) and you'd like it just in case, Email me.

Hey all, I still need to hear from some of you about 04/25 Wednesday night dinner in San Antonio. Will you be there? (It's a 6:30 reservation at a Mexican restaurant - walking distance, so we'll leave a bit earlier.) I need a an accurate head count prior to our arrival in order for the restaurant to hold the reservation for us.

I still need to hear from:

Thanks!

Luis, for those of us who DO have MS Office installed, is there a particular version that you need for your examples? (I am running 2007)

Also for Luis or anyone else who might know:
Do you have any knowledge about the ramifications of downloading a trial version (to uninstall later) if you already have another version on your system? Will uninstalling the trial (or letting the 60 day trial period lapse) mess up the original paid install?

I don't have Access on my computer, so I may need to download the entire trial version of Office Professional in order to get the Access component. It doesn't appear to be available alone.

I recall some talk of new PDF capabilities. At the upcoming conference will I learn how to make BR! fill in the answers on a PDF document and display it (in Acrobat or w/e) so that the user can review it and click print if all went well?

That would be AWESOME!

Or we're the PDF capabilities different and not capable of this?

By the way, John Bowman and ACS paid for the development of this date picker, so kudos to John for allowing the sharing of it
