WM5 screen tap capture or check box
-
I've found some stuff at MSDN, but not really enough to figure out how to do this. I'm looking to add check boxes to a list, and allow the user to check any of the boxes and capture that. I have not figured out how to do this, and I'm not really sure how to start. If that is not really going to be easy to implement, I would alternately like to just put a blue dot or something in front of each list item, and allow the user to click those, and I'd change them to red, or something. And be able to check which the user selected. I found CheckBox and GetCapture functions from MSDN, but as I say, I'm not sure how ti use them. I searched here, but the GetCapture discussions seem like they are about implementing advanced features. I didn't find anything that seems the right direction for the check box. I'm writing a program for a Windows Mobile 5 handheld with a touch screen, and using C / MFC (I am actually programming as much as I can with C, rather than C++, because I don't know C++ that well.

I'm programming for my WM5 device using C, I really don't know C++, so I'm sticking with C (MFC). All I really want to do is add SOME sort of buttons to my app. I have a list that I'd like the user to be able to select items in the list, I can't find anything that makes any sense (because it is all C++ stuff with the something.somethingElse or something::somethingElse and this doesn't seem to do anything at all. I find it hard to believe that I'm the first one to try this. I found all sorts of stuff but I'm not sure what will actually make a button or check box. I'd like something like this: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa454207.aspx[^] from MSDN, but I settle for something simplier. I searched for how to implement what they show here, but its like the terminology they use from the page I link is so totally different from any sort of implementation that I could not find anything else about that. I would appreciate any help!!!!!

OK, I'm used to writing windows apps for national instruments hardware, using Lab Windows, it is SW by NI for their hardware (I use this at work); when I want to add a button to my app, I can use a GUI and add a button to my app panel, and then create a callback function from that. THIS IS ALL I WANT TO DO!!!!!!!!!! [I'm frustrated ... with myself because I cannot find this in Visual Studio!!!!!] Can someone that knows a little about VS, and WM5 development (or even WIndows developement) clue me in as to how this is done? I looked at VS and found a Toolbox on the right side of the panel, but there was nothing in it. I checked the menus, and cannot find anything that looks like it would help me create a SIMPLE BUTTON!!!!!!! PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE Help!!!!!

Well, this seems crazy. I know a guy at church that develops WM5 apps with C#, he said there was a form that has the screen layout, and he drags a button onto that, and can create a callback function or whatever. I have not found any such form layout for C++, is there? Also, I have since figured out how to make a button and get it working just fine. If anyone is interested, just let me know and I can post something. (otherwise, I'll keep the secret too).
