              Have you checked the return value of SelectSring? The documentation says that the return value would be: The zero-based index of the selected item if the string was found. If the search was unsuccessful, the return value is CB_ERR and the current selection is not changed.

                        He asked you what type of variable it is. (LPCTSTR, LPTSTR, TCHAR*, CString, etc?)

                        Ok, everytime I enter aa code with anny of the #include starters, i get 103 errors and 2 warnings, and then I look for them, and it opens a new window "tab" thingy, and otsream, or istream or math or w/e i am using comes up. It makes testing fully written programs impossible to test. Does anyone know how to fix it?? - A query asked on the VC++ board[^]

                              Then why the unnecessary cast?
