1. Win32 stuff
Ad, thanks for the bug fix. That should save me a bit of extermination =
time. Is the sales tax really about 17% over there? And I thought 8% =
was bad :(.
BTW: The Store Manager program is designed to be customized. That's why =
I have no intention of shrouding or binding it, and why many of the =
features are a bit inflexible. I may consider a commercial version of =
it in the distant future, but it seems to me that most people interested =
in a POS system would prefer a customized version. Am I way off in this =
presumption or what?
[SLE & MLE problem]
If I remember right, Windows has this thing about displaying stuff =
on-screen. The order it's defined in, and the order its show message is =
sent in, is not necessarily the order Windows handles it in. Usually, =
if your program is the only one running on your machine, it shouldn't be =
so slow as to be really noticable. But sometimes .... As for fixing =
it, if the order is not important, leave it be. If the order is =
important, you could set all new controls as invisible to start, then =
turn them on one-by-one. Also, trapping onChange events or onLoad =
events could control things a bit more. As far as tab order, Windows =
usually tabs from left to right, top to bottom, pixel by pixel. =
Changing this would require trapping onKey events and onChange events, =
although I haven't actually tested the viability of this yet. Hope =
something here helps.

No, the high tariff is 17.5%; for 'luxury' goods. For most food items and=
other every day needs the low tariff of 6%, and there is even a 0% tariff=

for certain services.
