Bruce,

Thanks for the response. After some checking I have determined that the version of PowerBuilder I subscribe to does not include the C# editor. I can upgrade to the Cloud version and get it, just not sure if that is the correct course to take. I also checked into Visual Studio Code. I am very comfortable coding in PowerBuilder, but Visual studio Code seems like a steep learning curve to get up to speed on for me. In your opinion, would using the C# editor from Appeon be easier for someone who is familiar with PowerBuilder? Just trying to determine the best way to move forward with my project and either get up to speed with Visual Studio or Upgrade to the Cloud account with Appeon and use their C# editor.

Also, would you happen to have any examples of the assemblies to enable the drag/drop functionality with PowerBuilder and Windows Explorer? I tend to learn best looking at an example piece of code.

Thanks for your help!

It's just standard C# code. I did it in PowerBuilder.Net at the time because I assumed readers at that time would have that available to them.

PowerBuilder 2019 has it's own C# editor, and you can create assemblies there as well. I'd recommend trying that.

You can also use any C# editor of your choosing:

• Visual Studio ($1200 for first year for Professional)
• Visual Studio Code (free)
• JetBrains Rider ($140 for first year)
• SharpDevelop (free, but may be dead, last release was in 2016)
• MonoDevelop (free)
• and others.....

Bruce,

This is off this topic but I wanted to ask you a question about an article you wrote about dragging files out of a PowerBuilder app to Windows Explorer.

Here's a link to the article.
blogs.sap.com/2012/10/26/implementing-dr...to-windows-explorer/

I am trying to implement similar functionality to this in PowerBuilder 2019. I don't have access to PowerBuilder.net. At least I don't think I do with the standard subscription. So I don't think I can create the .NET assembly to use as you suggest with a Win32 app.

Is there a new way to do this (article is 7 years old)? Or am I in need of getting access to PowerBuilder.net? Don't even know if this is still accessible.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Well, Google Image Charts, despite the notices that it was shutdown, appears to still work.

A QR code is a QR code, so it really doesn't matter how you generate it. The discussion forums indicate that www.image-charts.com/ is a drop in replacement for Google Image Charts. It does cost money though. There are also other free qr code api services such as goqr.me/api/
