Introduction to FoxPro:
Visual FoxPro is a data-centric object-oriented and procedural programming language produced by
Microsoft. It is derived from FoxPro (originally known as FoxBASE) which was developed by Fox
Software beginning in 1984. Fox Technologies merged with Microsoft in 1992 and the software
acquired further features and the prefix "Visual". The last version of FoxPro (2.6) worked under Mac
OS, DOS, Windows, and Unix: Visual FoxPro 3.0, the first "Visual" version, dropped the platform
support to only Mac and Windows, and later versions were Windows-only. The current version of
Visual FoxPro is COM-based and Microsoft has stated that they do not intend to create a Microsoft
.NET version.
FoxPro originated as a member of the class of languages commonly referred to as "xBase" languages,
which have syntax based on the dBase programming language. Other members of the xBase language
family include Clipper and Recital. (A history of the early years of xBase can be found in the dBASE
entry.)
Visual FoxPro, commonly abbreviated as VFP, is tightly integrated with its own relational database
engine, which extends FoxPro's xBase capabilities to support SQL query and data manipulation.
Unlike most database management systems, Visual FoxPro is a full-featured, dynamic programming
language that does not require the use of an additional general-purpose programming environment. It
can be used to write not just traditional "fat client" applications, but also middleware and web
applications

Starting of FoxPro:

Features:

 In FoxPro we can link up multiple databases to give rise to pyramidal structure of database.
Queries can be made on a single or multiple databases being grouped by a field sorted on the
fields meeting user defined criteria.
 We can generate reports with fields of choice from a single or multiple databases grouped by some
column with suitable headings.
 We can make use of view window to view selected fields from single or multiple databases.
 We can design customized screens with FoxPro screen designer. We can save this and retrieve
respectively next time.
 We can generate our own applications and projects with FoxPro application generator
 We can organize our application through catalogues.
 We can import data from other databases and can export FoxPro database.

PRACTICAL NO. :- 2

Aim: Understanding data bases: In this practical we will discuss various components of
FoxPro

Objectives: Familiarization with Database and various components.

Data Base: It is defined as large collection of coherent, meaningful & interrelated data that is stored
or organized in such a way so that it can be accessed and process by authorized user at any time. Data
in data base is secure, less redundant & shared by multiple users. A data base contains number of
tables.

Tables: A table is a database object that holds users data. It consists of rows and columns.
Information is stored in tabular form a row make a record. Column contains same kind of attribute of
an entity.

Records: A record is a collection of fields. It consists of all the attribute of an entity. A row makes a
record.

FoxPro main Window:

 IBS

FoxPro window description:

• View window: It is used to see the content of tables or the results of queries which are
entered by user. It shows the information rows and columns wise along with the column headings.

• Command window: This window is used to enter commands/queries to access information from
the labels. This window can be moved to any place in main window and can be resized.

• Menu bar: This bar conation various menu items (eg. file, edit, view, format, tool, program,
window, help) and there sub menus. These menus have various options to create/design database,
manage database, compiling queries etc.

• Tool bar: This bar contains various ready to use tools to create and manage database or to do
others tasks. These are like shortcuts to the options available in menu items.

Creating Tables: FoxPro provides a very convenient way to create tables. The procedure is
discussed step by step.

1. Click on File Menu then on New. There are various option to create project, database, tables etc as
shown in the following picture. Then click on the new file. A create dialog box will appear. Then
enter the table name and click on save.

2. Then a table designer window will appear where we can specify attribute/column name there data
type and there size. Then a massage box will appear which will ask to enter entries at that time or later
click yes to enter entries.

Aim: Retrieving & Editing Databases: To access record from FoxPro & view specific
information from specific tables.

Objective: To use the commands related to access & view records from FoxPro tables. We have
following commands.

1. Display: This command is used to display the current record which is pointed by record pointer.

1.1 DISPLAY: This command displays single record which is pointed by record pointer.

1.2 DISPLAY NEXT: This command is used to display specific number of records starting from
current record pointer position.
 IBS

1.3 DISPLAY REST: This command is used to display all records up to last record starting
from current position of record pointer.

1.4 DISPLAY ALL: This command is used to display the all record in the specified table. If all
record could not come in single window then it provide option for hit any key to continue the display
the record. It displays record with column name.
 IBS

2. LIST: This command is used to display record in a table. It has various options as following are
given.

2.1 LIST: To display all record in a table this command is used but it can only display record which
comes in single window. It doesn’t have option like in display all command to continue show of record
in next window.

2.2 LIST FIELD: This command is used to display specified column/fields in a table.
IBS
 IBS

2.3 LIST FOR: This command is used to display a specific record based on the condition given in
the command.

2.4 LIST OFF: This is used to display record with out Record# field.
 IBS

3. EDIT: This command is used to update in the record of a table. It is desirable some time to
change the previously stored information. It has following options.

3.1 EDIT: It use index number to find specific record then it will display then it can be modified.

3.2 EDIT FOR: In this command some value with column name can be specified to find a record
that is to be updated.
 IBS

4. MODIFY STRUCTURE: This command can be used to made changes in the structure of
table and when we save these changes these become permanent. We can add new fields or can
increase the size of there data types.
 IBS

5.RECORD POINTER: This is special feature which is provided by FoxPro to indicate the current
control on the record. This is helpful to make any operation on the specific record such as to display,
to edit, to view. We can move the record pointer in forward or backward position to make any changes.

GOTO: This command is used to move pointer on any record specified in the command. Then we
can see the location of pointer using browse command a arrow is used to indicate the position of the
pointer.
IBS

SKIP: This is also used to move record pointer in some specific steps in the forward
direction
 IBS

BROWSE: This command is used to view the record of table in tabular form. It also display record
pointer’s current position.

Aim: Removing data from Databases: To familiarize with the operation which are done to
remove data from tables.

Objective: To use commands to delete data from tables. Fox provide various commands to mark
record for deleting, recovering records & permanent deleting.

1. DELETE: This command is used for marking any record which we want to delete. Marked record
can be identified when we use browse command, this kind of marking can be removed.

2. RECALL: This command is used to recall the marked record. If by mistake we have marked any
wrong record then this command can recover that record.
 IBS

3. PACK: This command is use to delete only those records permanently which are marked for
deletion. If we execute this command than that record can never be recovered.

REPPLACE: This command is used to make changes in the field values it is kind of editing
operation. We can specify some column name and corresponding value to be changed.

Introduction to COBOL:

COBOL (COmmon Business Oriented Language) was one of the earliest high-level programming
languages. It was developed in 1959 by a group of computer professionals called the Conference on
Data Systems Languages (CODASYL). Since 1959 it has undergone several modifications and
improvements. In an attempt to overcome the problem of incompatibility between different versions of
COBOL, the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) developed a standard form of the
language in 1968. This version was known as American National Standard (ANS) COBOL. In 1974,
ANSI published a revised version of (ANS) COBOL, containing a number of features that were not in
the 1968 version. In 1985, ANSI published still another revised version that had new features not in
the 1974 standard. The language continues to evolve today. Object-oriented COBOL is a subset of
COBOL 97, which is the fourth edition in the continuing evolution of ANSI/ISO standard COBOL.
COBOL 97 includes conventional improvements as well as object-oriented features. Like the C++
programming language, object-oriented COBOL compilers are available even as the language moves
toward standardization.

COBOL Features:

COBOL is self-documenting:
One of the design goals for COBOL was to make it possible for non-programmers such as supervisors,
managers and users, to read and understand COBOL code. As a result, COBOL contains such English-
like structural elements as verbs, clauses, sentences, sections and divisions. Readers who are familiar
with C or C++ or Java might want to consider how difficult it becomes to maintain programs written
in these languages. C programs that you have written yourself are difficult enough to understand when
you come back to them six months later.

COBOL is Simple:

COBOL is a simple language (no pointers, no user defined functions, no user defined types) with a
limited scope of function. It encourages a simple straightforward programming style. Curiously
enough though, despite its limitations, COBOL has proven itself to be well suited to its targeted
problem domain (business computing).
We noted above that COBOL is a simple language with a limited scope of function. And that is the
way it used to be but the introduction of OO-COBOL has changed all that. OO-COBOL retains all the
advantages of previous versions but now includes -
• User Defined Functions
• Object Orientation
• National Characters - Unicode
• Multiple Currency Symbols
• Cultural Adaptability (Locales)
• Dynamic Memory Allocation (pointers)
• Data Validation Using New VALIDATE Verb
• Binary and Floating Point Data Types
 IBS

• User Defined Data Types

COBOL is Portable:

The COBOL standard does not belong to any particular vendor. The vendor independent ANSI
COBOL committee legislates formal, non-vendor-specific syntax and semantic language standards.
COBOL has been ported to virtually every hardware platform - from every favour of Windows, to
every falser of Unix, to AS/400, VSE, OS/2, DOS, VMS, Unisys, DG, VM, and MVS.

COBOL is Maintainable:

COBOL has a 30 year proven track record for application maintenance, enhancement and production
support at the enterprise level. Early indications from the year 2000 problem are that COBOL
applications were actually cheaper to fix. One reason for the maintainability of COBOL programs
have been given above - the readability of COBOL code. COBOL programmers know that the parts of
the program that will have to be altered to accommodate these changes will be isolated in the
Environment Division. In COBOL programs, programmers have no choice. COBOL's rigid
hierarchical structure ensures that these items are restricted to the Environment Division.

COBOL coding sheet:

 IBS

The structure of COBOL programs:

COBOL programs are hierarchical in structure. Each element of the hierarchy consists of one or more
subordinate elements.
The hierarchy consists of Divisions, Sections, Paragraphs, Sentences and Statements.
A Division may contain one or more Sections, a Section one or more Paragraphs, a Paragraph one or
more Sentences and a Sentence one or more Statements.
We can represent the COBOL hierarchy using the COBOL metalanguage as follows;

Divisions:

A division is a block of code, usually containing one or more sections, that starts where the division
name is encountered and ends with the beginning of the next division or with the end of the program
text.

Sections:

A section is a block of code usually containing one or more paragraphs. A section begins with the
section name and ends where the next section name is encountered or where the program text ends.
Section names are devised by the programmer, or defined by the language. A section name is followed
by the word SECTION and a period.
See the two example names below -
SelectUnpaidBills SECTION.
FILE SECTION.
 IBS

Paragraphs:

A paragraph is a block of code made up of one or more sentences. A paragraph begins with the
paragraph name and ends with the next paragraph or section name or the end of the program text.
A paragraph name is devised by the programmer or defined by the language, and is followed by a
period.
See the two example names below -
PrintFinalTotals.
PROGRAM-ID.
Sentences and statements
A sentence consists of one or more statements and is terminated by a period.
For example:
MOVE 45 TO A.
MOVE 34.76 TO Pcost
COMPUTE B = Pcost * A.

Four Divisions of COBOL:

At the top of the COBOL hierarchy are the four divisions. These divide the program into distinct
structural elements. Although some of the divisions may be omitted, the sequence in which they are
specified is fixed, and must follow the order below.

IDENTIFICATION DIVISION.
Contains program information.

ENVIRONMENT DIVISION.
Contains environment information.

DATA DIVISION.
Contains data descriptions.

PROCEDURE DIVISION.
Contains the program algorithms.
 IBS

1. IDENTIFICATION DIVISION:

The IDENTIFICATION DIVISION supplies information about the program to the programmer and the
compiler.
The IDENTIFICATION DIVISION has the following structure:
IDENTIFICATION DIVISION.
PROGRAM-ID. NameOfProgram.
[AUTHOR. YourName.]
other entries here

2. ENVIRON MENT DIVISION:

The ENVIRONMENT DIVISION is used to describe the environment in which the program will run.
The purpose of the ENVIRONMENT DIVISION is to isolate in one place all aspects of the program that
are dependant upon a specific computer, device or encoding sequence. In the ENVIRONMENT DIVISION,
aliases are assigned to external devices, files or command sequences. Other environment details, such
as the collating sequence, the currency symbol and the decimal point symbol may also be defined here

3. DATA DIVISION:

The DATA DIVISION has two main sections: the FILE SECTION and the WORKING-STORAGE
SECTION. Additional sections, such as the LINKAGE SECTION (used in subprograms) and the REPORT
SECTION (used in Report Writer based programs) may also be required.
The FILE SECTION is used to describe most of the data that is sent to, or comes from, the
computer's peripherals.
The WORKING-STORAGE SECTION is used to describe the general variables used in the program.
The DATA DIVISION has the following structure and syntax:

4. PROCEDURE DIVISION:

The PROCEDURE DIVISION contains the code used to manipulate the data described in the DATA
DIVISION. It is here that the programmer describes his algorithm. The PROCEDURE DIVISION is
hierarchical in structure and consists of sections, paragraphs, sentences and statements.

Introduction to different word processors and their features.

Word processing refers to the computer system that helps us to type, edit, store and print documents.
Word processor produces well looking documents as compare to a type writer. Which are very
accurate and take less time. Word processing can be defined as methods of translating ideas into
words, putting the words into written form and producing document through the use of automated
equipment.

Software packages as word processors are:

MS-WORD, WORD STAR, WORD PERFECT.

Word processors helps to perform jobs such as letter drafting, mailing lists, producing reports etc.
It is very useful in Business Environment.
It is easy to use, fast and accurate.

Features of Word processor:-

Word wrapping:- Word processor will automatically take you to the next line depending on the
width of the line and accordingly arrange the text also.

Add or Delete text:- Text can be added or deleted from a document from a document very easily.

Select blocks of text:-Word processor allows you to copy or move text from one place to another.
But before copying the text one has to select it.

Copying a text:- You can copy text from one part o the document to other.

Moving a text:- Moving a text means copying the selected text to another place and removing it
from the original place.

Find and Replace:- find and replace used to find any character or word in the document or to
replace some character with other character.

Easier formatting:- Word offers great new ways to polish the formatting in your document. It
includes character formatting, page formatting, margin setting, line spacing and justification of text.

Improved table and list formatting:- Word now offers drag and drop copying of tables, custom
tables and list styles, and improved sorting. You can also format bullets or number differently than the
text in a list.

Multi-selection:- You can select noncontiguous areas of a document, which makes it easy to format
text in different places. You can also use the find feature to select and format similar text.
 IBS

More convenient word count:- By using the “word count toolbar” you can check the current
word count document without heaving to repeatedly open the “Word Count Dialog Box”.

Simplified mail merge:- Word takes advantage o the task pane to deliver a brand new way to
connect to your data source and create from letters, mailing labels, envelops, directories, and mass e-
mail and fax distributions. The Mail Merge Wizard is easy to use but still offers rich, advanced
functionality.

Drawing Canvas:-The new Drawing Canvas helps you easily insert position, layers and resize
drawing object in your documents.

Diagramming:- You can add variety of diagrams using the diagramming tools on the drawing
toolbar.

Diagram (Radial type)

Drawing sizing handle
Drawing border

Improved watermarks:- You can easily select a picture, logo, or custom text to apply as the
background for your printed document.

Checking a document:- It includes

Grammar check:- Grammatical error checking is done.

Thesaurus :- Adds variety to the document by suggesting alternative words and also
suggest opposite meanings.

Spell check:- Spelling errors are located and rectified.

Printing:- Word processor allows you to print your documents. It also permits background printing
while editing a file. It has the capability of printing multiple copies of the same documents.
