Hi Dale, that fixed it - the item disappears appropriately and the subtotal updates fine.

Kaz wrote:why not use f5 to void the item instead of modifying the line
Kaz, you can do so - however what this thread was illustrating was a glitch in doing this as detailed above. In my case the total of the sale suddenly jumped about $90 when an item was removed in this obscure manner.

I did manage to replicate this - it seems to only work if you modify the second item entered into the sale and press Esc to clear the price, then Delete the stock number and subtotal. While I was testing this I tried it with some other products: 1) In a blank sale, added $2.36 worth of bananas 2) Ad...

I've just installed version 6.39h and tried the above. 1) I tried this and the only line that was out of alignment was the tax total, which was shifted to the left by two characters. I'd recommend checking your receipt language labels for a start - in case they've become corrupted with a version upg...

Ian,

It will bring up Windows Help if you do not have the DHPOS window selected (i.e. in focus). It's not a bug - it's a "feature" of Windows, for keystrokes to be sent to an open program you need to have it selected.

Sounds to me that you have not set your "printer ready code" properly in POSCONFG. See the "Program Printer" option which will show the current code being sent by the printer as a "ready" code, and you can choose the option on that screen to use that value. Also - one printer may send a different "r...

Ah of course the opening receipt - I had no printer running when I pottered around before. Well that's going to be a tough one to get around, it's kinda impractical to set a password (no option at present) for opening the register. Like I said - I think your only way is going to be checking the jour...

Robert, Where are the sales figures shown upon re-opening DHPOS - it's been a while since I used DHPOS regularly, but I can only find the figures on the "close" screen - which you can lock up by setting a password (or leave blank which will require the master password) and set the mode to "1" which ...

Copy the old stocktable file (*.TBL), paste it into the new folder containing the fresh install of DHPOS and rename it whatever you called your new register e.g. MARTHA.TBL

lemon535 - there's a list of retailers who carry the display towards the bottom of the homepage (http://www.pertelian.com/index.php). One of those is ThinkGeek, which I'm sure would ship internationally.

It's an example spreadsheet to demonstrate the format required to import existing stock data into DHPOS. From the user manual ( http://keyhut.com/postip6a.htm#export ): If you have MS Excel there is an Excel spreadsheet STOCKTABLE.XLS that comes with this program. It is a blank formatted stock table...

It's quite possible - but I personally wouldn't recommend it - for data integrity reasons. Also, the local folder is important for holding data pertinent to that individual register - you get multiple copies of the POS executable accessing some of those files which are not meant to be shared by mult...

I like the current site, we've discussed this many times before - the general consensus always being that if we had a flashier page most users don't believe the software is free, or like Dale says is whizzbang windows crud. I certainly find most software gems on less professional sites like Dale's -...
