I cannot find any reference to LoadInstanceString() in MSDN, is this a standard part of the Windows API?

I have just tried that and it works fine. Use the debugger to step through your code and check the values of all your parameters to see why it is failing.

_TCHAR buffer[2048]; LoadString(h, nResId, buffer, 2048); strMsg.Format(_T("%s"),buffer); While i was running the application in WindowXP the Api is Working. But when it is Window7 O.S the buffer is Empty. There is no error. Thanks uday

::LoadString

A suggestion: when adding code to your question use copy and paste so the exact code from your program shows in the question.

So LoadString() is returning a non-zero value?
