A SID uniquely identifies a user or a group (i.e., a trustee). What makes you think the computer itself has one? "When I was born I was so surprised that I didn't talk for a year and a half." - Gracie Allen

hi, "rhs" is just the name of the input parameter, you can also use "cat" if you want, but only if you like cats ;-) Have a nice day! hph

Check out CoQueryClientBlanket and IServerSecurity interface. That should give you some info about the client if impersonation level is higher than RPC_C_IMP_LEVEL_IDENTIFY Edward

At least when I attempted to call Encoder from a VB client using the above Encoder definition in a C++ COM object the program crashed. Is this normal behavior? Or, am I overlooking something? Thanks,

Have you defined _WIN32_DCOM in your client? Also, you might want to set the MULTI_QI (qi in your case) memeber pIID to the address of the interface you are requesting to be returned and then try calling CoCreateInstanceEx. Hope this helps. :)

Read the C++ FAQ here on CP ;) You need to adjust the project settings for that particular file so that it does not use precompiled headers, or alternatively, #include it into stdafx.cpp. Steve S

Sorry, #define WEBSITE "http://www.microsoft.com" The problem is still not resolved. I'm in shock. Any ideas? Yours sincerely, Alex Bash

Not needed at all. The first way (opening connection each time you need it) is the best one, since ASP.NET do connection pooling. But always CLOSE(!) your connection at the end. The connection pool works this way: It creates a connection for each unique connection string passed, gives it to you if you create one (new SqlConnection or such) and returns the connection to pool ONLY when you close it. If the connection remains open, it is not returned to the pool, thus next time you'll require a database connection, it will be created again ( a new one) Philip Patrick Web-site: www.stpworks.com "Two beer or not two beer?"

I need to explain what I do: Step 1. I made MFC Extension DLL with Wizard Step 2. I added to Extension DLL a new class CMyDialog derived from CDialog Step 3. I added to Extension DLL a new GENERIC-class CExportData to export data & functions Step 4: I added to CExportData function CallMyDialog(): void CExportData::CallMyDialog() { CMyDialog md; md.DoModal(); }; Step 5: I made a call from SDI-application: CExportData ex; ex.CallMyDialog(); Step 6: I got the CMyDialog, but CMyDialog is not modal. I can switch between SDI application and CMyDialog, What's wrong? Yours sincerely, Alex Bash

To be honest: I don't know. But I assume that if you call GetCurrentDirectory dierctly after startup it will return the path where your app is located. But I still think it is safer to use GetModuleFileName. /edit: Tim is right :-D regards
