	Hi all, I'm currently doing some research for a potential project. (Trying to get answers to some technical aspects.) I try to find a solution to be able to see the progression of a big memo transfer in HFSQL C/S over the internet (like FTP transfer progress). But I can't find anything in the help, nor the LST (from 69) nor the forums. (Or maybe I'm not looking for the good keywords.) What I try to achieve is like an FTP transfer to and from a server, but with HFSQL right inside a DB. Here are the details: - I have a HSSQL C/S DB with a table that contains "files" (binary memo, etc.) on a server over the Internet. - Client applications will send "files" to the DB. The size will always be several MB. - I would like to display the transfer progression to and from the DB. (HAdd(), HRead()). - If possible the user could "break" the operation. Any ideas or suggestions are welcomed! Thank you very much, Alexandre Leclerc Answer Quote & Answer Print Complete thread

Hi Alex, I had the same problem with the progress bar. After some tests I used SMTP to push the file to the server (smtp has a PB) I create a dummy mail-account and a small program polls every 30 seco ...

Hi Piet, I could do something in SOAP that does that. (I do not have control on the server machine, but I can have a SOAP application running.) Thank you for your suggestion! Best regards, Alexandre L ...

Hi Alexandre, I would suggest using a small Windev program running on your server that acts as a transfer server using sockets. In this program that has a connection to your database you can use hLin ...

Hi Arie, Your idea really makes me think a lot and see other possibilities. (I did not even thought about stored procs!) I must check if the required functions are available in this mode (I see that f ...

Re: Progress bar for a big HF C/S memo transfer: possible?
Alexandre, just an idea, while there is no build in functionality, as Fabrice says. Maybe you can use a stored procedure, acting as a receiver. Use a variable (like a buffer or string) to pass your fi ...

Hi Farbice, Thank you very much for your comment. This is also the best I can see so far. At least I can get technical answers to what is possible and not. Best regards, Alexandre Leclerc

Hi Alexandre... I do not think that there is any DIRECT solution (ie by doing the work directly in the DB)... To achieve what you are describing, I think that you will have to rely to a standard trans ...
