Re: Unexpected font in BUTTONS

I just installed font "Courier" on the customer machine. GETS are based on the DC_XbpGet() class and the default is '10.Courier' because we need a fixed length font to properly size the GET. You could try using a different non-proportional font like Lucida Console. DCGETOPTIONS GETFONT "10.Lucida C...

ChatGPT for code conversion.

My first experience using ChatGPT was surprising and enlightening when I used it to convert an Xbase++ function to Pl/PgSQL. This was needed to create a PostGreSql stored function that can be used in SELECT queries. The resultant code worked perfectly. I had it also convert 4 other functions and the...

Re: Stored Procedure vs Stored Function

My conversation with ChatGPT (before this, I was a non-believer. I think I have been reborn.) : I want to convert an Xbase++ function to PLPGSQL. ChatGPT said: ChatGPT I can help with that! Please provide the Xbase++ function you want to convert, and I'll assist you in translating it to PL/pgSQL. Yo...

Re: Stored Procedure vs Stored Function

Just ask ChatGPT to help you. It knows PostGres and even Xbase++. Really? That is surprising that it would know Xbase++. I must be living in the woods. I will give it a try. Thanks for that suggestion. BTW - This PostGreSql project has stimulated me to want to continue in my career as a programmer ...

Re: Stored Procedure vs Stored Function

You can do that with the SELECT command: SELECT Strip(p1,p2) AS cResult.
Yes, I am familiar with how to use a stored function in a SELECT statement.
I am just not familiar with the PLPGSQL language structure.
The PgAdmin 4 debugger doesn't help me much to figure out what is wrong with my code.
