Since you are writing to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, I don't think you can prevent the prompt - writing there REQUIRES administrative privilege. Having your application in the Program Files directory is OK, but modifying or creating files in that directory is a problem also requiring admin privilege. Even if you create a manifest containing the RequestedExecutionLevel set to "requiresAdministrator" (as some will probably suggest) will not solve it - all that does is when your program starts the user is prompted to enter the administrator password or approve the operation anyway. As DavidCrow indicated, there is probably a better way to accomplish what you need - perhaps using HKEY_CURRENT_USER instead. Good luck.

A dirty hack could be to create an installer for your application, that grants access to everyone to the application folder. One have to be an administrator to install the application, but then any user can use it.

You are either doing a non-Unicode build, or you do not have the language installed on your computer. If you can see and type the said character in notepad, then you have the language installed on your machine. You just need to do a fully Unicode build. “Follow your bliss.” – Joseph Campbell

Dear Cedric, Thank you so much now I solved the proble but only one thing is pending. For instance, if the text has more no. of \r in it then how could I replace all the \r. Please give me your advice. I have done already for one occurance of \r and the code is below. char *str = "abc\rxyz"; stdstr = str; int idx = stdstr.find('\r'); stdstr.insert((idx+1),1,'\n'); const char* rcData = stdstr.c_str(); int lenA = lstrlenA(rcData); int lenW; wchar_t *unircData; lenW = ::MultiByteToWideChar(CP_ACP,0,rcData,lenA,0,0); unircData = SysAllocStringLen(0,lenW); if(lenW >0) { ::MultiByteToWideChar(CP_ACP,0,rcData,lenA,unircData,lenW); } unircData[lenW] = 0; m_EDIT.ReplaceSel(unircData);

bhanu_8509 wrote: Can you please tell whether pumping messages is unsafe Not to my knowledge. In fact, you can mess up things easily (if not written properly) by using threads because of synchronisation issues. However, the "PumpMessage" method is still a "hack" whereas using threads should be the preferred approach.

Please anybody help me!!!

I cannot find useful information for the comboboxes to be added in a row. The implementation is given for a column. Please help me.

Why don't notification icons get a message when the user clicks the "X" button? [^] nave [OpenedFileFinder] [My Blog]

nope i tried it before sending the last post, also make sure u have used the macros _UNICODE and UNICODE, y dont u give it a go for variable of type CString of that EditBox and then m_EditMessage=symbolText; but the Edit control has to work,,,i wonder, also check whether it can read the unicodes if(symbolText.GetAt(0) == 0xFEFF) { Edit.SetWindowText(symbolText); } else MessageBox("\nOoops Sorry,, I gave UP..!!!:)");

If the variables are not volatile, you're already in trouble. The ideal way would be to synchronize access to the variable using thread synchronization techniques (a critical section would do, as all your threads belong to the same process). I see you have a lot of things to read up. It is a crappy thing, but it's life -^ Carlo Pallini

I am sorry, I forget to Insert the column. Now I changed it and it is working fine. Thanks for your help.

For such an application a main dialog/window should be there to track these button selections... So that these kind of recursive DoModal can be avoided. A sample... not perfect but only to get the idea. void CMainDlg::ShowDlgs() // my own function { for( ;; ) { int nNextDlg = 1; switch( nNextDlg ) { case 1: { Dialog1 dlg; nNextDlg = dlg.DoModal(); } case 2: { Dialog2 dlg; nNextDlg = dlg.DoModal(); } // and so on... // ... case ID_EXIT: // = 100 or something else... (ID for exit the application/loop) return; } } } Better is to make the use of user/registered message communication between parent (main dialog/window) and child dialogs (Dialog1, Dialog2, etc.), but I don't know exactly what you are trying to do. - ns ami -

Thank you for your kind help. It is working...

C++ is a programing language. 2) MFC is a C++ library specializing in the MS Windows Platform. 3) .NET is a Process Virtual Machine[^] similar to Java but vastly different. ( Microsoft also provides a Base Class Library for the .NET platform[^], but don't confuse that with .NET ) One significant differences is that the .NET platform abstracts the Intermediate Language[^] resulting in the ability to support development for the platform using any programming language that someone provides a .NET compiler for. Microsoft supplies a C++ .NET compiler in the form of C++ language extensions referred to as C++/CLI[^]. led mike
