I assume you need to implement IPropertyBag2 interface to get rid of activeX warning. I did it long time ago. don;t remember the details as of now. HTH.

CreateProcess[^]

Try this[^] sample app , you may able to right click on the menu items HTH

Here [^]is the link on how to get list of all process.

what you are trying to achieve?

What is the return value of LoadBitmap function?

HTH KeyBoard Hooks[^] on side note, you are making your system unstable by using hooks. and as inputs from others posters you are changing default functionality of other application.

Use Keyboard hooks.

as far on windows box, all the arabic strings was acceptable to client. we have other hardware were standard font file did not work as desired and gave us a good amount of trouble. sorry I do not remember the details it was a long back 6 yrs back :) In case of Japanese and Chinese ( in different project ) we build a whole set of dialog boxes with different fonts for once user select the input language. The default (FONT 8, "MS Sans Serif") for us do not rendered the Japanese character. HTH

1. Yes, if you sent a specfic format ( like only numbers) to the sql 2) The best way is to use different control to be safer side, since this will avoid problems down the road. HTH

few additional points. 1) reading style ( right to left or left to right ) most of the is taken care 2) The language script may be same in two different languages but the way its words are interpreted may be different 3) On Windows dialog specially, you have to use different dialog template since the default fonts may not render character of UI in a given language. We face this problems in past, for Japanese font and we have to create a whole new set of dilaog boxes to maintain same look and feel of application throughout the running lifetime of application. 4) The size of executable.and code base itself, If your code works on special hardware ( like Credit card devices where limited amount of memory is available) This could be a huge problem HTH

If I remember correctly it was a year back this news was floating all over web. I come across this[^] site which verifies any hoax. HTH

If I read your correctly, the name of mutex should be unique ,pass some unique string while creating first instance of app1,app2 and so on. the reason you are getting problem you are using the same mutex name for all the application. HTH

Your requirement is quite huge, for Browsers you can Look for Browser Helper Objects ( BHO ) for IE you can get started with Popup Window Blocker[^] article. XPCOM for Mozilla browsers. On taskbar, start button and tray button, I am not sure what is the intention of developing such application. MSAA[^] can give you some idea. HTH

The question is little bit confusing, Are you looking to access the HTML page from IE window and trying to read the HTML tag?

Probably you need to get IWebBrowser2 [^] Interface and then from there you need to figure it out how to get window handle you are looking for. I hope there is only one "IFrame" Window in the Spy++.

Thanks Tim, I am missing Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word in MSVC 2005, COM assembly listing.Google did not gave me any good results.

What reference assembly I need to add to achieve word automation, a week back sysadmin install office 2010 bundle. Though I do not use C# at my work. and haven't code since last 3 yrs. I am trying to code some internal utilities for team and myself. TIA

You also try systemwide Keyboard hook.Here are few CP articles you can take a look API hooking revealed[^] Mouse and KeyBoard Hooking utility with VC++[^] HTH

In addition to what others suggested, please make sure all the dependent files ( lib and dll) are located by your installer app. Hope this helps
