Using Windows FileSystem Object, we can copy entire folder with one line of code: oFs:CopyFolder( cSourceFolder\*.*, cDestFolder, lOverWrite ) We need to make sure the destination folder exists and if not create it first. ...

The problem is: without any codepage settings (ie. EN codepage) Descend() is fine but accented chars from filesystem are wrong. With ITWIN (or other codepages I tried) the accented chars from filesystem are right but Descend() is not working. Any solutions will make me happy. ...

Here is a statement: Historically, databases were created when the filesystem provided by the OS were not good enough for the problem at hand. mod harbour changes so much for us FIVEWINNERS. We have our data on a single machine and use it like on a standalone ...

... I already have done all the work with DBU. I am convinced that RDP, DBF and the other formats (xml, doc, xls, jpg, etc. ) and the inclusion of the filesystem of the operating system enable so much that it does not make sense to include an additional layer. Best regards, Otto

... But after a few weeks, it is somewhere, and the disorder reappears. Nevertheless, I try again. I think it's excellent and flexible to use the filesystem directly without a database. To start, I start with a small program that creates a daily folder for me for the next few years. I virtually ...

Hi, File locks are not stored anywhere. They are kept in memory by the filesystem in the server OS. The dbf headers are always of the same size, they cannot change size because that is not easy to handle among several users. In normal files, a file lock in ...

... El tener 500k de entradas en una única carpeta va a hacer TODAS las operaciones lentas, y la vuelve muchísimo más suceptible a fallos del filesystem. Incluso cuando añades un xml nuevo a la carpeta seguramente le tomará bastante más tiempo crear un nuevo archivo porque tiene que buscar ...

This is how to use filesystem in (x)Harbour

Code: Select all  Expand view

oFs   := CreateObject( "Scripting.FileSystemObject" )

Dear Mr. Rao,
I didn‘t even know that there is a tool for fulltext search inside bcc\bin folder.
So I can’t tell anything about.
BTW, can you search with grep inside WORD files?
Best regards,
Otto

May I know in what way fileseek is different from the popular grep? C:\bcc7\bin>grep ? Turbo GREP 5.6 Copyright (c) 1992-2010 Embarcadero Technologies, Inc. Syntax: GREP [-rlcnvidzewoqhu] searchstring file[s] or @filelist Options are one or more option characters preceded by "-", and op...

Hello, FileSeek is working fine. Calling with Parameter 0 it works without showing a window. FileSeek returns a csv file. Best regards, Otto function suchestarten()    local cPrg := ""    cPrg := 'c:\FileSeek\FileSeek.exe -d "c:\#    DEMODATEN&quo...

FullTextSearch engine I found a program which looks promising https://www.fileseek.ca . I read in the FAQ that it should be possible to operate from command line. So I think I could pass the search options from FIVEWIN and get back a file with the results. BTW does someone use fileseek. Best regards...
