consider using two identical context menus using unique IDs for the menu items. Steve

Please clarify. Are you asking how to make the function be the handler for all the menu items, or how to write the body of the function? -- jlr http://jlamas.blogspot.com/[^]

Why? Those are simply a holdover from the days of Unix. Unless you are doing 16-bit work, they have no place in Windows development. "One must learn from the bite of the fire to leave it alone." - Native American Proverb

first u have to get a handle to the menu or create ur own HMENU hMenu = CreateMenu(); HMENU hPMenu = CreatePopupMenu(); AppendMenu(hMenu,MF_STRING|MF_POPUP,(UINT_PTR)hPMenu,favmenuTxt); AppendMenu(hPMenu,MF_STRING,favID,favTxt); also in ur message process u need to handle for the WM_COMMAND message with (i think) wParam being the command ID

I believe a HTTPContext class will do this for you. Certainly I know ASP.NET is itself an ISAPI extension, and one of the classes you can override allows you to do the same thing in C#. Christian Graus - Microsoft MVP - C++

I assume you have a member variable that has been subclassed to the control in question. This might have been done for you. Use the debugger to make sure that m_hWnd is not NULL prior to adding the sample text to the list box. If it is NULL, make sure that the resource ids haven't changed and that the control id is correct for the control. This often causes problems. Tim Smith I'm going to patent thought. I have yet to see any prior art.

To obtain the files in a given directory, you can use FindFirstFile[^], FindNextFile[^], and FindClose[^]. For each file you find you can add an item to the list.

Is that a constraint for using combo box. i get an exception everytime i am trying to add something in the combo box I don't think it has anything to do with your application being SDI or your view being a CFormView. Rather, the problem may be at what point in time you are trying to access the combobox. I seem to remember reading in some other post that you are trying to add an item to the combobox from your view's OnCreate function. At that point, the combobox is most likely not already created, and thus you won't be able to add any item. If that's the case, try accessing the combobox from your view's OnInitialUpdate, after calling the base class implementation. -- jlr http://jlamas.blogspot.com/[^]

Do you have an alias for homepc set to 127.0.0.1 on your development machine? Have you checked the permissions of the file on the FTP server? Have you checked that the FTP server allows anonymous access (assuming you are not using a username and password) ? HTH.

From the RFC[^]: LIST (LIST) This command causes a list to be sent from the server to the passive DTP. If the pathname specifies a directory or other group of files, the server should transfer a list of files in the specified directory. If the pathname specifies a file then the server should send current information on the file. A null argument implies the user's current working or default directory. RFCs are good. Use them! -- An eye for an eye will only make the world blind.
