Users typically love SQL Server Reporting Services Reports (SSRS), especially if they’re accustomed to more primitive tools such as Visual FoxPro.

I’ve mentioned in the past how difficult M2M’s flavor of VBA is to use. One problem that I haven’t touched on is the problem of VBA file corruption. M2M VBA File Corruption? What exactly are you talking about? When I talk about the VBA file, I am referring to the M2VEvents.prj file. This is the […] Recently I got a call from another M2M Consultant who was attempting to install M2M on Windows 7. He simply could not get VBA to work. I asked him to run through the steps and I found his problem right away. He had made a mistake early in the process; I have made similar mistakes […] Can someone please tell me why, after all these years, VBA is still a manually installed application? To the best of my knowledge, they’ve offered VBA for nearly 10 years. Yet I still have to manually install VBA on every single computer which runs M2M. To make things worse, the instructions for installing it […] In an earlier article, I challenged my readers to come up with the widest variety of solutions to a problem I posed, and discuss what I thought was the best solution.

Well, true to my word, I have created the following customization so that you can do just that. Now would be a good […] Anybody who has developed with VBA and FastForms long enough has most likely run into the following error message.
I cannot tell you exactly why this error occurs, because I’ve never received an answer from support. I know the surest way to trigger it is to attempt to error check fields […]
I love ThinkGeek. A Made2Manage friend called me recently to ask for help decoding the Visual FoxPro from a M2M report. While talking to him over the phone, I remarked that it would be a lot easier if all of the old code revisions weren’t included with the finished reports. […] |
