<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
I'm having a problem with a column in a grid, which I want to display the results of a UDF.<br />
<br />
I've got this column defined in the .INIT() method as using<br />
<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; .ControlSource = &quot;inttohex(VAL(names.value)<wbr />,4)&quot;<br />
<br />
- where inttohex() is a UDF that converts an integer into a hexadecimal string. The UDF takes two parameters. First is the integer, here the numeric contents of the NAMES.VALUE filed. The second parameter is the width of the resulting string.<br />
<br />
I've include a declaration in the .INIT() method code as<br />
<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; EXTERNAL PROCEDURE inttohex<br />
<br />
When I run this, I get an error:<br />
<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; Variable is not found<br />
<br />
The call stack is pointing to the line which defines the .ControlSource property.<br />
<br />
Any suggestions?

Using UDFs in grids

Productivity software is application software dedicated to producing information, such as documents, presentations, worksheets, databases, charts, graphs, digital paintings, electronic music and digital video. Most common programs and suites such as Microsoft Office and LibreOffice have their own topics. Office suites, which brought word processing, spreadsheet, and relational database programs to the desktop in the 1980s, are the core example of productivity software, but they can include communications software, personal information managers, groupware and log analysis software.

Enterprise software, also known as enterprise application software (EAS), is computer software used to satisfy the needs of an organization, including businesses, schools, interest-based user groups, clubs, charities, or governments. Services provided by enterprise software are typically business-oriented tools such as online shopping and online payment processing, interactive product catalogue, automated billing systems, security, enterprise content management, IT service management, customer relationship management (CRM), enterprise resource planning (ERP), business intelligence (BI), project management, human resource management (HR), manufacturing and supply chain management, enterprise application integration (EAI), and enterprise forms automation. Enterprise software is often available as a suite of customizable programs that require specialist capabilities.

Visual FoxPro (VFP), and its predecessor FoxPro, is a data-centric, object-oriented, procedural, database programming language and IDE from Microsoft last released in 2007 that still has some active use due to its low cost of deployment and fairly rapid development. In 2008, Microsoft released a set of add-ons for VFP's xBase components to allow interoperability with various Microsoft technologies. It allows data processing against its native file-based data tables or database servers such as SQL Server.
