In which case you had better start "banging tables" to show your disgust and contempt of a system that clearly is handicapping you rather than helping you. Assuming you have a copy of Microsoft Project software, navigate to where the MS samples are stored and load the sample project entitled "Software Development". Open it and see the data that is presented to you. Then look at the timescales required to effect some software project from inception to end, and what they show there is not representative of real-life project development time. Say to your teacher if MS Project sample cannot do a software project IN ONE WEEK what chance have you.

thank you!!, that's exactly what i was looking for..

I have not tried your code, but I find that the default generally helps: The default background color of the toolbar created in VC applications have back color = RGB(192,192,192) Gray. Try flood-filling the background of the toolbar with this color). You can also use ImageLists. It seems to give the option of background masks. this is this.

Most folks that pose such a question about missing functions are ignorant to the fact that a Platform SDK even exists, or that perhaps it contains newer prototypes. I was just making sure you had not overlooked that. Glad you're ok! "Ideas are a dime a dozen. People who put them into action are priceless." - Unknown

Does MoveWindow() produce the same result? I'm not sure if either support CW_USEDEFAULT. You might want to explain this requirement further. Perhaps there's a better alternative. "Ideas are a dime a dozen. People who put them into action are priceless." - Unknown

Well the "default" icon, the one shown by explorer, is always the first icon in the executable file. So all you have to do is edit the first icon. Is the icon in your executable? If so, use the resource editor. If it's in a separate executable, you'll need to use the BeginUpdateResource() etc. methods to access it at runtime.

that tells me about as much as this does "Injects into Explorer.exe on startup and exiting the parent."

When I was in undergraduate school, we did quite a few programs that used stdio as the input, and stdout as the output. We were on a Unix box so piping was a big deal, too. Here are some smaller projects that taught, and at the same time, were easy to implement:* Create a file with random numbers, one per line. Pipe that file through an averager, and a sorter (not the one that comes with the OS). A grading program. Each line of the file should contain the student's name, followed by 0 or more scores, each separated by a vertical bar (or some other easy-to-read character). Pipe that file through a grading program to give each student's average score, and perhaps a letter grade. Sort students by average score. Roman numeral to arabic converter. Palindromes A program that, given a .h or .c file as a starting point, will go through the file and show the #include hierarchy. Each #include encounter will be a "recursive" call. Determine if a circular dependency exists. A program that will determine if a pattern matches an input string. A program that will determine if a number is prime. These are just some off the top of my head. "When I was born I was so surprised that I didn't talk for a year and a half." - Gracie Allen
