Hey Aymen, Is there any way to make the $custom file dialog to select multiple file extensions? Thanks, Frank

Meter, Is there any way to add in alias names to the product? I'm using jvzoo and it's painful to have two products of the same price when I' running specialty pricing on closed webinars. And I'd hate to have to start supporting mutliple licensing products too. Frank

I create a sqlite database right on the user's computer and access it locally. I really want to migrate to a package like opentables which written in javascript can use ajax to query a database to update it's display. To be honest, is you have an example doing that with ubot, it would be excellent - just the access table data part that is. I've kind of run myself around a bend on this one. Frank

Do you have more information on this methodolgy and possibly incorporating ajax into the mix? Thanks way ahead of time, Frank

Hey all, I'm trying to figure out how to use the powers of ajax to access a local sqlite database within ubot. I've got Aymen's database plugin but I'm stumped on how to tie to two together to do intelligent database calls for a jQuery controlled table. Any hints, thoughts, leads would be GREATLY appreciated. Thanks! Frank

I know that this is a bit old, but what is it about?

ah man, totally missed your sale. I've been interested in the code view program for some time. Question, can you print out code listings with it in full color? Thanks! Frank

I'd be willing to pitch in on this project as I'll be wishing to develop much the same thing in a professional manner for my growing product line in the next six months. But I'll be honest, I'm pretty anal when it comes to writing the code to make it clean, and understandable. Proper use of local, global variables and constants. (Hmmm what the heck are constants you ask?) Frank

I've used zeno and ubot in the past. I eventually decided on ubot as it let me compile programs to sell. Both are doing close to the same things, but each does have their strengths and weaknesses. As you found too, I found zenno quite difficult to use.

Personally I think you need to tell your windows xp client to get off their wallet and pick up a new computer, lol. Even Microsoft shut down support over 18 months back and the product was released almost 14 years ago. Better yet, tell them I've got a smokin deal on a windows vista computer!

I'd like to know the solution as well - please post to this thread. Frank

You have to make sure that you do package your bot properly with an installer such as actual installer. If you professionally package up things, most can be ignored and programming in ubot isn't a bad thing. Some folks think it cheapens things but I totally disagree. It's the programmers in the past that put out rubbish code from ubot that's the issue.

Thanks CD, but I'm not going to lie, having two ensure two dependencies is not cool. First net 4.5 - actually now recommend 4.6 and c++. But thanks for your observation.

Way back when, someone was talking about jquery tables to be created and used. Any further developments here? I'd love to add more intelligence to my table queries and change writes.

Totally agreed. Once a week should kill most abuse. F

Hey Pash, What's the chances to make a change in the code to support png files on the splash screen with transparent backgrounds? right now it shows a white background. Not a big deal if it's a lot of work, just curious. Frank

Hmmmm, CD you may have something here. Form a pipe between chosen ports and pipe info back and forth - I like it. Thanks for the lead. Frank

Thanks for the input deliter, but I really want to be able to talk to the compiled ubot automation sequence directly - giving it data and receiving data back. Anything else is string and bubble gum. If I'm not correct or am missing the point, I'm all ears mate. Frank

For the time being my work around is to have the customer uninstall and re-install the software I built and packaged with actual installer. I've added a command line in like mentioned here but had it remove the license.lic file on uninstall. That permits the person to clear out the license info and than start fresh. A bit backwards - again, it would be better to provide a button on the error message stating something like 'Enter New License?' and it would automatically clear the license and try again. Second, I've noticed it takes a good 10 seconds to have the app fire up. Users will click m

Than it may be useless in other code!! There's gotta be a way to pass information back and forth. Frank

Tell me more Seth! I saw your email regarding embedding ubot code into other code like c#! How do I pass info from and too the code? What's the best way to embed...... Frank

Thanks for the input CJ, but I'm wondering about files that are one directory deeper. I keep most of my support files in a support_files directory inside the main program directory. But I think I've found a bug. When I use a license that is already used, it comes up with an error, 'Invalid license. Allowed number of activations has been exceeded.' which is good but there's no easy way to stop that message from coming up and put in a new license. Now, if there was an option to enter a new license when it failed - that's a different story. Frank

Another feature would be to allow me to include new files or file replacements in the upgrade zip. I normally store support files in a secondary support files directory to the main program.

Meter, do you think there is a way to have the licensing software not allow a program to start if they change the name of the exe file? I want to limit execution to one process on one machine and I cannot find a way to stop a process from starting if the name is changed. That way they can get around some of my limitations by making three files with different names and running all three. And the software doesn't bulk. Frank

Old rule of thumb, wait for everyone else to upgrade - wait another week - and then maybe... Frank
