sorry, FilterDataObject seems only works for copy/paste try this to prevent the DHTML DOM from handling drag events: also check if other elements handle these events in scripts. you can either modify these attributes through source code or through DHTML DOM. you also can override CView::OnDrop to handle dropped data, or CHTMLView::OnGetDropTarget to change the drag/drop behavairs. for more information about DIB and DDB, check the "copy/paste an image" section of [^] http://blog.joycode.com/jiangsheng http://blog.csdn.net/jiangsheng Command what is yours Conquer what is not ---Kane

There are defined limits for the various ID ranges in resource.h. Microsoft describes these ranges in technical note 35. From TN035: --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- _APS_NEXT_RESOURCE_VALUE is the next symbol value that will be used for a dialog resource, menu resource, and so on. The valid range for resource symbol values is 1 to 0x6FFF. _APS_NEXT_COMMAND_VALUE is the next symbol value that will be used for a command identification. The valid range for command symbol values is 0x8000 to 0xDFFF. _APS_NEXT_CONTROL_VALUE is the next symbol value that will be used for a dialog control. The valid range for dialog control symbol values is 8 to 0xDFFF. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- It is best to keep your resource #defines within these ranges, as some things may break if you use values outside these ranges. Certain MFC data types are written assuming that the resource id values fit within a 16 bit unsigned int. For instance, the CString object allows a string to be loaded from the resources during its construction by passing its resource id to the constructor, but only works if HIWORD(id) is 0. In order to load a string this way, you use the following form of the constructor: CString string( LPCTSTR(RESOURCE_ID) ); This constructor distinguishes between a resource id and a pointer to an existing character buffer by looking at the hiword of the LPCTSTR pointer. If the hiword is 0, a string is loaded from the resources. If the hiword is not 0, a string is copied from an existing buffer. Best regards, John

Read the FAQ, or my GDI+ articles. Christian I am completely intolerant of stupidity. Stupidity is, of course, anything that doesn't conform to my way of thinking. - Jamie Hale - 29/05/2002

It goes like this: 1. Create a class CMyException. Here is an example: class CMyException { CString strError; public: CMyException (CString& a) : strError (a) {} void HandleError () { AfxMessageBox (strError); } } 2. Do this in that function: if (index_is_out_of_bounds) throw CMyException ("Index out of bounds"); // throw the exception 3. Catch the exception like this: try { // call the function that may throw the exception } catch (CMyException& e) { // caught an exception and now handle it e.HandleError (); return; } You can also check MSDN for details or download a good C++ book.

Create MDI app. When user opens/creates new document, you have to do the following: 1) ensure that previously active document is closed. 2) open additional 3 views (or whatever number is needed) Overriden CMultiDocTemplate::OpenDocumentFile is the perfect place to put this functionality.

:-O :-O :-O I feel embarassed :-( This is indeed the right solution. Ignore my post please [which is the most round about way to do this:(( ] Nish Bow wow wow, Yippee yo yippee yay, My miniputt high, Is now 30 yay.

We like it this way: we can give bad advice and not be held accountable for it!!!! Sorry to dissapoint you all with my lack of a witty or poignant signature.

Thanks .. I have not tried it as yet . but I think this would surely serve the purpose. Abhishek Narula "Learn to appreciate others ... World would appreciate you"

Thanks a lot you have been a great help. Abhishek Narula "Learn to appreciate others ... World would appreciate you"

Abhishek Narula wrote: I have made some drawing on my CDC , using LineTo etc .. functions .. now I want to save this drwaing as Bitmap file which I can open in MS-Paint. So.... if you created the CDC, and selected a bitmap into it ( and if you created a CDC and DIDN'T select a bitmap into it, then the CDC contains a 1x1x1 bitmap ), then you already have the CBitmap, if you got the CDC from OnPaint or similar ( it's the background of a dialog box, say ), then you need to either call GetCurrentBitmap or create a new CDC/CBitmap pair to copy this bitmap across. Also, if you're creating the bitmap, creating a DIBSection will allow you to save it at any bit depth, instead of just that of the screen. You can do that with Chris Maunders DIBSection class, which is on CP. Abhishek Narula wrote: Can I do this ?? rather I am sure we can do this .. but How ? thats the question. Both Nish and I have pointed you to the FAQ, he even kindly looked up the URL ( I was too lazy ). The whole point of having a FAQ would be negated if we went off and quoted it to people unwilling to read it, don't you think ? If you've read the FAQ and are still confused, please explain which bit is not making sense to you, and I'll be happy to clarify. You can also look up my GDI+ articles or the CXImage class here on CP, two solutions offered on this site ( some of the solutions in the FAQ are not on CP ).
