It would appear that if I am allowed to leave responses to comments on the wish list, the method of doing so escapes me. So, in response to the detectgrid sample linked by Daniel, I can see that the code may well have some use, however the particular usecase I have is during initialisation, not runtime, and is for all the painted fields in the entity, so using the windows handle for the field which has focus from the async trigger is WAY too late in the day. I want to control the display of columns in the grid based on a user's permissions. Looked up at initialisation of the screen. Or even in response to code in another field. Being able to get the status of the field I am already in does not help with either of these. Regards, IainP.S. why can't we comment on wishes? 

Hi all,is there a simple way to convert UTC format like, for example,  "2019-06-06T08:58:42.1878669Z" to a local time zone considering also daylight period ?Many thanksLuigi Giuliante

I am trying to get the u9WebStart GIT repository into an enviroment where I can see the source and build on it. I have dowloaded it, and can see and understand things like the asn files, but the src folder has a .cmx extension. I haven't encountered this before. I know I may just be behind the times here, but a little help with unpacking all this stuff into the environment I'm used to (Uniface 9.5) would be deeply appreciated. Regards, Iain

Is it possible to use both versions of SOP (U1.0 and U2.0) at the same time, setting one as default and one specifically for components (SERVICES_EXEC)?

Hi Unifacers,we need to access a mail server using crypted communication to read a mailbox.Following suggestions found in an old post (thanks Daniel!) we setup an email proxy (stunnel) to enable UPOPMAIL to do it, because as of today UPOPMAIL does not support yet natively communication on crypted ports.Everything went OK and we were quickly able to read a test mailbox with few messages in it!When we tried to read a real mailbox we found a lot more messages and despite we were using ListMailX(uList), that should read mailbox in chunks of about 10MB each, this partial read DOES NOT happened: all mails headers are read in a single chunk!Has anyone experienced this issue when using UPOPMAIL with stunnel or a similar proxy?Thanks in advance for any suggestion or hint...This is the code snippet we are using:; eMail headers read...mailNext = 1mailLoop = 0while mailNext   message/nobeep "Start exec loop: %%mailLoop%%% ..."   putmess "Start exec loop: %%mailLo

Hi all,the html widget (Uniface 9.7.04) has several problems when it has to access some websites, perhaps also because the CEF3 3.2454.1344 version integrated in the widget is a bit obsolete.Are there any other systems for integrating a browser into a Uniface application? For example using an activex ?Many thanksLuigi

Update notice for UD6 Driver for Uniface.A limited number of customers have been testing UD6 for Uniface 9.7.05 and Uniface 10 for about a year now.  We were waiting to release this with a major update that includes more features and Uniface 10 fixes, however the next update requires further testing so we are releasing this stable update to all customers now.  Due to the extended period of beta testing we are confident this is a very stable build for customer.  This upgrade is recommended for all Uniface versions, and is required for Uniface 9.7.05.UD6 2.1.05.1209 download available now to all customers, and a trial is available to downloadtrialhttps://www.march-hare.com/downloads/customershttps://www.march-hare.com/webtools/customer/We are aware of three problems with this update:- Windows install for Uniface 10.3 - the file ofields.u13 is incorrectly installed as ofields.u10- UD6 for Uniface 10.2/10.3 does not handle ‘renames’- Documentation is incompleteHe

The 'old' Uniface Community Forums had a space for asking about and advertising addons.I think it was labelled "Additions for Uniface, both software, and services, free or commercial, this is the place"Obviously March Hare Software and the Uniface Professional Users web site http://theu.info is already fairly well known.But what is the etiquette for advertising major updates and releases of community tools in this new Q&A system?TIA

Uniface supports only MySql Enterprise. Can I use Odbc to connect without problem with MySql Community version ?Many thanks

If you type for example "$replace(" there is no hint for the Parameters in Patch 10.3.02.016.

Found this line in the UnifAce library"When the Debugger tracing setting is set to value 16 (trace all activate information), the $procerrorcontext information for the some errors appears in the message frame."Where to set this value?$ioprint does have 16, but this is a another story$proc_tracing is a bool flagMaybe a undocumented function like $traceprint? grinning  🙂Ingo

Hello together,we would like to integrate RabbitMQ into our Uniface programs in order to send/receive messages to/from non-uniface applications. Does anybody of you guys has any experience with that and wants to share it with me?Thank you in advance,Michael.

I am looking at having our remote sites feed back statistics on client licence usage over the preceding month, so we can track usage and suggest increased licences where appropriate. To that end, I've been looking at the umfilter option to output a licence usage log. However, it does not appear that the command line help (or the online help) gives me the correct usage for the date filters. I am trying umfilter -d 7188@localhost -o c:/tmp/dlm2.csv -feat UCLIENT -usage -sdate09/01/2019 -edate09/30/2019 With and without spaces after the sdate/edate, but the output appears to start in february (possibly the start of the log file?). Any clues anyone? Iain

Hello, We have a service that creates one container form A and a contained form B, then activate an operation of A to put the instance of B in the container field.There is a lot more around (calling other services, which create other forms, displayed in various containers).And sometime (not always, not reproductible every time) the contained form B closes itself at the end of the process.I tried comparing trace when form B stay opened and when it close, but except the fact that it closes, I can't find any relevant difference.And when it closes, the instance's reference still exists in the A container.My question is : What can cause the stop in the contained form. If you have any hint, thanks for your helpThanks in advanceYves

$password now returns encrypted stringThe $password function has been enhanced to return an encrypted password. Prior to these releases, the $password function returned the value of password as plain text.  The encryption provided for $password thus adds an extra encryption layer.Uniface transparently handles encryption and decryption of $password. The open statement still accepts $user,  $password and plain text as parameters.This change in the behavior $password can cause compatibility issues if you have Proc code that is expecting unencrypted passwords. Therefore, before releasing the patch to your users, check and correct the application logic.
