status display in a dialog
-
Windows 7, Visual Studio MFC, C++, dialog based project A dialog is to have a status display area. The code will add lines of text. My preference is for each new line of text to be added to the bottom and have the display scroll up. The user will not be able to edit the text, but it would be nice to be able to capture it with ctl-c to paste somewhere else. I tried an edit control but each update wipes out the previous text. List box seems to be the simplest control, yet still has many user accessible features. I would like to read your reccomendations.
Thanks for your time If you work with telemetry, please check this bulletin board: http://www.bkelly.ws/irig\_106/
