    Dear friends, I've a log file and this file is getting updated regularly. Now i want to develop an application which *monitors* this file and display the contents of this file. If there is any new addition in this file, the application should immediately update the text in GUI window ? How can i do so.

      have a look at this : http://www.codeproject.com/KB/MFC/UltimateToolbox_FileWatch.aspx[^] Or there's the Win32/MFC equivalent, but I forget the API name.

        Here is one example.

        "Love people and use things, not love things and use people." - Unknown

        "To have a respect for ourselves guides our morals; to have deference for others governs our manners." - Laurence Sterne
