I am interested in buying source or have someone co-develop a uniGUI Booking Schedule Appointment App that would work for service industries whereas clients can make appointments online. Let me know what you can do or offer. Prefer something that is for most parts developed in already in the works that can be demonstrated. English speaking skills are essential. I am semi-retired and am not wanting to spend full time on this on my own. I will reply by a private message to anyone of interest. John P. Canada

Thank you! John P. Canada

Well, silly me, that seem to fix that issue. I have been away from Delphi projects for awhile. I am a registered user running with uniGUI 1.90.0.155. Although I may have to update or renew. I was hoping I can work with both 32 and 64 bit on the same machine under Delphi Do I have to create separate library paths? It seems I can only compile 64 bit under Delphi. Is it possible to install unGUI and create both 64 and 32 bit apps on one machine.? Thanks John P. .

I have recently ungraded to a 64 bit machine for my uniGUI development. But now on my application I get this error below when I try to create and exe. Under the advice of another post, I did change my Project-Options-Building-Delphi Compiler-MS Compiler as I thought I saw suggested, it did compile but cannot run. ''Bad unit format: 'C:\Program Files (x86)\FMSoft\Framework\uniGUI\uIndy\uIdBaseComponent.dcu' - Expected version: 34.0, Windows Unicode(x64) Found version: 34.0, Windows Unicode(x86)''. Also wanting to be able to compile both 32 and 64 bit versions. I am running Delphi 10.4 under Windows 10 64 bit. Any help to safely configure or lead me that way without breaking is appreciated.

Hello, I have been using uniGUI well over 5 years now. I am pleased with what it has done for me and my customers. I have two applications that worked quite well on one machine as a sole server. One program runs a delivery order system for customers and the other is a manifest and reporting system for drivers. With the implementation of Hyperserver, my second driver application has become very slow to load once it gets passed the login. It takes over 30 seconds to show and load the next form and sometimes not at all, but works fine once it is loaded. I use DBISAM for a database as I have for years. I have stripped down all I can and have tried various Hyperserver configurations making sure there are no port conflicts. I have made sure I am running the same runtime libraries. I have removed my anti-virus programs for testing with the same results. I was wondering folders for creating nodes could be an issue. Oddly the issue is only with my second driver application, which is basically the same and worked good before. I am currently running in stand alone server mode for testing. Same results on testing with three different servers. I am looking any insight that might help me out, especially with Hyperserver. Thanks John P. Track Information Systems - Canada

Thanks that worked. I was trying to use L instead of a and 0 instead of 9, which did not work for me.

I am wondering if there are any examples of input masks, and maybe further explanation of the uniEdit properties that someone can provide. I am trying to create an input mask for a Canadian postal code, which I cannot seem to get to work using L9L-9L9 as an example that uses alpha and numeric values. I am using uniGUI version 1.90.0.1543. John P

I would like to save to a string(s) or edit box that could eventually update into a database table.

I am looking for a component that can grab the street address and zip or postal code from Google Maps, or maybe from another service for North America. I thought I saw something that was free and open source somewhere for Delphi but am not able to find it. Of course it must work with uniGUI. Thanks, John P - Canada

I seem to have resolved my issue. I had to make sure that my autosession name was set to true, and set my session and tables to be active on my main form to allow the login I created . I do have my session component in the data module that I created as suggested. I may have not been calling my session tables to be active soon enough. I had to give a bit of time (sleep 2000) to allow the table I needed to login to open. I also removed the private directory setting on my server module since the private directory property no longer exists in recent versions of DBISAM. Also, somehow in the process, one of my DBISAM databases as defined by the DBISAM server utility, did not contain the defined table list that I needed when I copied over to a different machine under the database name I was using, even though the tables physicaly existed, which likely was the main problem. Not sure how I lost those settings from the DBISAM server utility. An oversight on my part if that makes sense. John P.

Has anyone used SM Report Designer by Scalabium Software with uniGUI for reports and generating PDFs? What about Rave Reports ? I have use Fast Reports in the past. Because of tighter budgets I am forced to look at other lower cost options when upgrading Delphi versions and all the 3rd party tools, which for me is becoming too costly for all the tools I use. John P.

I would think it just two lines of code for my DBISAMSession1 Remoteuser Remotepassword properties that I tried to add to the servermodule that gave me an error. I am using a datamodule with my project with all DBISAM components and don't have them on my mainmodule, or perhaps there is another error altogether. I tried three different backups that worked before. Sorry, I don't have a sample, just my project, which is quite large. Can you just provide a sample of lines of code I could try? I tried to put my DBISAMSession component on the server as mentioned before with the same result. I will try maybe to come up with a sample to test the login and connection. If it works for you, could you just provide just a few more details. In the meantime I will try to create a sample but will take a few days as I am more than busy. I do get a connection in the IDE when I set my session property active to true in the IDE, but again when I deploy it DBISAM prompts for a user name and password server side that it did not do before, which the credentials also do not work even though they are correct. My other regular client server apps works fine with the same login methods on the same computer. Thanks, John

I tried to add my session and the credentials to the server module with the same results. Can you provide a sample as you are suggesting? I have other client server database applications using the same DBISAM dataset without error, so I don't think it is a DBISAM issue. Thanks, John

Hello All I have a DBISAM application that reads credentials from the RemoteUser and Remote Password properties of a DBISAM client-server session. This has worked very well for many years with UNIGUI version 0.99.95.1303. I recently migrated the application to a new Windows 10 Pro computer, and at the same time upgraded to DBISAM 4.48 build 6. It was running on a Windows 10 Pro system before. I also have been away from all of this for a couple of years since everything was working so well. The issue I am having is that I get a DBISAM 11287 error. It seems the credentials I use with setting RemoteUser or RemotePassword with Uni edit boxes that I have always used in the app will no longer work, and will not work when the login window pops up to enter the user name and password from the application. My other client server applications that access the same DBISAM database works fine on a Windows 10 machine. Otherwise the application seems to load fine. There seems to be something gone wrong in the translation with the login to the database, which I am not sure where the issue is. The other issue is that the DBISAM login dialog box pops up on the server side since the application cannot use the data to log in as I have, and even if I try to enter credentials on the server access is denied with again the DBISAM 11287 error when my UniGui appplication is running. Any insight will be appreciated. I am looking both here and asked DBISAM (Elevate Software) for support to try to figure this out. On another note. It would be nice if we maybe had a forum for Database Connectivity. John Postnikoff, Canada

I am wondering if it is possible to mask in this format as an example. S7T1A6. This is an example of a Canadian postal code that I use with the same position of characters and numbers. I know as an alternative I could have a separate edit box for each character or number and then validate and join to get the correct format on entry. Just looking to see if there is an easier way.

Questions for use. 1. UnimDBSelect on a query. a). First the records do not seem to tag or go to the record of a selected item from the UnimDBSelect list. It tried two ways to add to my UnimDBSelectlist. I checked the autoadd properety as true. The autoadd property does not add all records at once. Onlty if I nagivate through each record one at a time with a navigaor then it will add to the UnimDBSelect list. B. I tried to add items to my UnimDBSelect as below wih the same result that once poplulated it does not seem to match or tag to the record after a selection is made. UnimEdit3.Clear; DataModule.QryNameList.Filter:= 'Receiver LIKE ''%'+UnimEdit3.Text+'%'''; while not DA3DataModule.QryRoutes.Eof do begin UnimList1.Items.Add(DataModule.QryNameList.FieldByName('Lastname').AsString); DataModule.QryNameList.refresh; end; What is the best way to populate? Do I have to create code to tag a record from a UnimDBSelect list and query? 2. The size of EXe seems to has nearly tripled in size with adding mobile components to my application. From 9mb to 26mb Why is it so big, or can I configure the use of the librarys differently? 3. What is the flex property on dbedits?

OK thanks. I am away for a few days and will let you know some results and present some code.

Thanks for the tips and insight. I knew there was something disrupting the data connection but it is beyond me to figure out. Looks like we may need some updated docs and examples for Fast Reports or any other option. Maybe Farshad and others such as yourself can help with further tweaking these issues in due time. PDF reports are a crutial requirement for me. It is so great the you are willing to share your your tips to help resovle. Thanks John P.

I believe this has to do with the grid or data source. I am running my grid on a tabbed page, which I know was a issue in the past. I also tried different groupings and sort orders in my SQL clauses. Sometimes data from my query would not show on the grid, which I know was correct. I also made sure I had grouping turned off on my grid as that seemed to cause some problems as I tried to get working. Again here once I started from scratch I could get my queries working but not reports. It almost seems like a table with some null values in columns may had something to do with it or data is cached and not clearing but I could not verify. My PDF report prints without data and one record per page. I did a test in native Delphi and it works. I have not tried to revert back to a previous version, which I would rather not do in case of some other corruption.

Can you send a example JvDBGridExcelExport to set the properties. I cannot enter the name of the uniGUIgrid in the JvDBGridExcelExport grid property.

I am wondering if anyone is using FastReports with DBISAM or any other DB. I seem to have a problem with creating a new report. I cannot get data to display into the bands of the reports. I can get data to show on the page but not in a master or detail band. Pages will print with my titles one page per record without data if set to first and last records, and only one page if set to current record. Just cannot see data and why one page for every record. I did create a uniGUI web application where I have to show and print only one record as a PDF. That has worked great for months as it prints on the page of the report without bands. I seem to be having a problem when I try to create a report to print multiple records using bands. I am not sure if this is new or something just not possible with uniGUI. I did have some issues back in Dec. where data was not showing on second grids on tabbed pages but that was resolved. I am not sure if this is related. Hoping someone can help on this. I have all my report components in my datamodule. I am using Delphi XE, DBISAM 4.40 uniGUI .99 Fast Reports 4.13 and Windows 7 Ultimate. Thanks, John P.

I was looking for details to upgrade to the Complete version from the Pro version. Is that option still in the works, or will that be available when.99 is out.

Do you have any idea when that may be. Sorry to persist. I am doing some planning to schedule my work. Just want to know if it will be more than a month or two so I have something to tell my customer. John P.

I would like to see the same along with DB labels for mobile development. I am wondering if some kind of time estimate if and when these components will be available as I have a commercial project to do. Just want to do some planning. Thanks. John P.
