Subject: NEW BLOB FIX!!!! RE: Birthday coming soon<BR>> <BR>>
Ken,<BR>> <BR>> Hold on with the birthday stuff... This is
important...<BR>> <BR>> There is a MAJOR (and I mean MAJOR) blob fix in
the latest filePro. I<BR>> discovered the problem about 6 months ago when
our blobs were just getting<BR>> SO huge. The fix brings blobs down
to exactly the size they should be<BR>> (which is actually quite small)...
You can easily calculate how big your<BR>> blobs should be with a simple
multiplication in the exact same way you<BR>> calculate key size. I'm
talking about using blob fields as MEMO edit type<BR>> here. The Blob file
has space added to it in 8k chunks. So, as your text<BR>> moves up past an
8k boundary, a new 8k chunk is attached to the file. If<BR>> your
blobs are gigantic, hell if they are simply bigger than the amount of<BR>>
text you have per memo dividing exactly into the blob file size...<BR>>
Remembering that you might have just 1 extra 8k chunk for the first<BR>>
available free space... Then you NEED the latest version. Actually,
this<BR>is<BR>> an absolute bug, if you use the MEMO edit type in your map,
this error<BR>> *will* happen to you. By getting the new version (I
guess that would be<BR>> 5.6.10 now or is it 11?) you can run the new
"blobfix" program that comes<BR>> with it, and shrink/fix your blob files
on the order of 2Gb files become<BR>3Mb<BR>> and similar. It simply
makes the blobs infinitely more stable. There was<BR>a<BR>> time when the
blobs I used as MEMO type were so unstable that I always<BR>> passed and
used some other text saving method. Now, I use the MEMO<BR>>
function<BR>> everywhere and they are solid as anything else I could muster
up. It's<BR>> actually nice to have the feature. Now all we need is a
better printing<BR>> function for them. A while back I posted a method for
being able to TAB<BR>into<BR>> and out of MEMO fields on the screen.
I feel they need to act similar to<BR>> the way other fields on the screen
work... But that is just my hang-up.<BR>> There are lots of great uses for
the MEMO exactly as they are. One last<BR>> thing... I'm not sure if
the PageUp and PageDwn while in a text (MEMO)<BR>field<BR>> has been fixed.
In previous versions it didn't work, and I think that is a<BR>> must fix to
make the MEMO editor have the look and feel anyone would<BR>expect.<BR>>
Ken told me one time that he thought it should work and was surprised
to<BR>> find out it didn't, so it may have been another bug fixed in the
new<BR>> version. I didn't put it in as a specific bug report, so maybe
that's<BR>still<BR>> hanging out, don't know.<BR>> <BR>> But if
you're having problems with MEMO/BLOB's being unstable and WAY too<BR>>
big, you need to get the new version. I think anything to do with
file<BR>size,<BR>> (like ddefine and other executables have the fix in
them.<BR>> <BR>> Now, birthday stuff. 51 to 61 was a horrendous decade
for me... At 50 is<BR>> when I lost my sight. It kind of ruined any of the
good stuff that was<BR>> happening else wise like grandkids, having enough
money for things I<BR>always<BR>> wanted, making a nice house and home...
Relaxing a little, etc. You I<BR>hope,<BR>> should be doing all those
things and really enjoying it. But, don't let<BR>> those muscles go down. I
remember when you could do *pull-ups* on my door<BR>> frame... Hanging by
your fingertips!!! Go on an Outreach trip or<BR>> something... Just
don't fall into Mt. Saint hellen. :-)<BR>> <BR>> Funny, you're
listing to blues lately... Remember when we loved the Rock<BR>so<BR>> much.
And there were great bands to go hear like Happy The Man. I,
too,<BR>am<BR>> playing a lot of blues. (I still love Blue Grass, and am
going to see<BR>> Allisyn Krauss in May at Gettysburg...) but Saturday
night I'll be playing<BR>> Rock Me Babe, and A Man In Love (a Clapton tune
on "Money And Cigarettes")<BR>> also, two of my own bluesy things... Oh,
yeah, also Cripple Creek (The<BR>> Band... Old standby's like that just
never die. "She told me just to come<BR>> on by if there was anything
that she could do..." [and she could do a lot<BR>of<BR>> things!
:-)]).<BR>> <BR>> Am I getting punctuation crazy in my old age?
Truly, if it matters, over<BR>60<BR>> and I don't feel like it's old age...
Not until I try and get up after<BR>> sitting on the floor for a while...
Or when my fingers cramp up after two<BR>> songs... Or any number of other
things... But inside... In my head, where<BR>it<BR>> counts... I'm about
25. :-)<BR>> <BR>> Take care,<BR>> <BR>> John<BR>>
