Hi Joseph,
basically you have to build a project, add your startprogram, and after
setting up your environment, just call one function:
lnResult = DWIW(oUser)
If you get an error "Unknown command", then you haven't installed the
correct servicepack yet. The DWIW function is an undocumented, and widely
unknown, but yet extremely powerful routine, which translates to
Do What I Want (= DWIW )
This single call will switch VFP to reading your mind and resolving all your
programming needs without ever have to ask for any silly command
explanations anymore. No more head crunching about SCATTER / GATHER /
RESTORE and how to press F1 without installed helpfile...
Just DWIW() !
---------------
Sorry, couldn't resist... Sometimes my Black Humor just goes wild with me.
Hope you take it not personally!
Yours Sincerly

Hi _Stephen,
SET INTE ON ? Naaa, that's the old way of coding, since with that you
can't get the result back. Only functions can deliver a result, thus that's
why they added the DWIW(). SET INTE ON is like a EXE without READ EVENTS:
You see the results flashing by (BTW, thats why SET INTEnded is also spelled
out SET INTEnse) but your ideas are gone in the very same moment. DWIW() in
contrast works with scoping on the current user (the parameter) as well as
delivers the results in a clean way....
In our preliminary tests, the DWIW() worked extremly well, but we had
immense problems with the oUser parameter-object. Thus the results haven't
been exactly what the teammanager / customer wanted: Sometimes VFP was
trying to create an oBlonde object with several exposed properties,
sometimes it got lost in Cascading Destroy Events when trying to materialze
a champagne pyramid of 20 levels... We therefor are now first training our
programmers to be better focused on their job. But since mankind is some
sort of multitasking (or Multithreaded thinking?), we stil struggle with
maintaining a constant reference to that job-task. We even switched from
APARTMENT-Threading to SingleRoom Threading (i.e. one Programmer per room),
but this didn't made big differencies in terms of disturbances.
Due to newest Microsoft technologies, which we heavily studied (we even
renamed our companys name to a "DotNET" ending!), we are now trying to
decouple those events and have taken all programmers OFFSITE. Also we
applied SOAP on all our floors. Unfortunatly, the MARSHALLs, which we hired
to deliver the Customers wishes to the now Offline programmers are
constantly failing errr... falling due to the very slippery foundation, thus
we now applied ROPEs to all rooms, so that our Custom messages don't get
lost.
All in All, at the moment, we cannot deliver anything. But the whole
SOAP/ROPE scenario is so much fun, watching our Marshalls struggle with the
NET we tied around our building so that they can't miss our MMQS (Munichs
Most Questionable Secretary), if they can't contact the programmer.
The MMQS in turn takes nightly study lessons on DELPHI, so that she answers
all questions like an ORACLE.. "All will be working! We have everything
under Control", regardless of what the programmer will say, when he will be
back from under his desk... What? Why he is under his desk? Because of ROFL
watching those Marshals, struggling thru our NET framework.
Thus, we all have fun, we study a lot, we experiment a lot, we need lots of
resources for soapig and roping, (and cleaning after the horses of thos damn
marshalls). We don't deliver anything, but the MMQS takes care about that.
What can I say? LIVE IS FUN if you ride the NET-wave!! Don't know though,
who is paying for all that mess. But that's not my task, I just escalate
that to the "Powers that be". Delegation is one of the first principles of
proper OO desgin. Have your fun and let others get kicked too. Yeah!
Welcome to the new NET World! Just remember how boring the old way of coding
was: You just
USE YourCustomer , set him straight with SET ORDER TO TAG MyWay and BROWSE
his wallet. No fun anymore, compared to all that new toys MS deliveres every
year for free!
