Dave, For example whenever I enter an incorrect password on my computer at login the following message appears "The supplied credentials were invalid. Please try again or contact your system administrator for help". How can I change this? I would want say a picture of me to pop up and say wrong password or some other form of animation of my choosing. Is this possible?

How can I add picture that will pop up whenever an incorrect password is entered on my computer? ;P

Can someone tell me where to find a book that tells me how to create a virtual brochure for my website? Want to convert my pdf files and put them on the website as a brochure so that visitors can flip through them page by page. Any ideas for software to create the brochure? :zzz: Some type of flash program. Thank You

I would like to create a virtual brochure of the services that I offer. The brochure would be put up on my website and can be viewed by all who visit. How do I create a virtual brochure? Are there any books or other material that can be recommended?

Can anyone suggest a good book on how to ceate animations for websites? I want to create a gif banner for my website using pictures and text.

I have asked this question before and were given some good answers. The problem is I am a beginner. I have no idea of where to get started. So when I am told about coordinates and bitmaps I am lost. I have written a C++ program. I can run it now by clicking on the default blue and white box. I want to have like a nice Box with the name of the program written on it. When you click on the box the program runs. Are there books on how to do this? Can someone give me some advice for dummies? If you are unsure of what i am asking let me know. :wtf: Thank You and have a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year

I have written a C++ program. I want to do away with the default box. How do I design a nice skin and put my C++ code in it? For instance, I could write the word LOTTERY. When you click on LOTTERY the program runs.

How do you prevent someone from entering an invalid entry? For instance, the user can enter a "y" or "Y". If they entered anything else, they would receive a message saying invalid entry and be given the chance to re enter their input. I am using Microsoft Visual C++.

I have written a program with Visual C++. Where on this website can I look for articles that inform me of how to create a skin for the executable file? Where can I find articles that will inform me of how to create the dialogue box which will give the user the option of saving, printing output?

A little late but use for future reference. Boil the water and when the water is boiling drop the eggs in. Hard boiled egges come after 7 minutes after the water is boiling. Or if you put the eggs in at the beginning the seven minutes start when the water has come to a complete boil.

Go at it the old way. With a pencil and piece of paper.

I have written a program using Visual C++. Are there any books guide me through creating a skin for my project so you do not see that blue exe file? Also are there any books that could guide me through having a tool bar across the top so the person will have the dropdown screen option of saving, save as, print etc. across the top? If all of this can be done using MFC is there a book that can show me how to accomplish this?

Thanks Martin, I will try your recommendation and see what happens. I did not know you had to change all couts to printer. I am a beginner and have been working with this for awhile. I have had many recommendations and probably due to my inexperience I was not able to figure out what was going on.

I am having a problems printing the output for this program. With C++ when I compile and run the program I am left with an exe file. How do I incorporate code to print out the output? Below is the code. Where do I enter it within the program? Basically I want to be able to print the output. //#include int main() //(int,char*) //{ //ofstream printer ("1pt1:"); //Printer <<"test"<> ans; cin.ignore(); if (ans == 'A' || ans == 'a' ){ cout << "\nEnter RWA Base Estimate, then press the enter key:$\a"; cin >> input; cout << "You entered:$" << input << endl; int pos = input.find(','); while (pos != -1) { input.replace(pos, 1, ""); pos = input.find(','); } number = atoi(input.c_str()); fee = number * 0.04; cout << fixed; cout.precision(2); cout << "4% Management Fee:$" << fee <<"\n"; total = number + fee; cout << fixed; cout.precision(2); cout << "Total:$" << total <<"\n"; if (total >= 1 && total <= 2499) { cout << fixed; cout.precision(2); cout << "Overhead:$" << total*0.1 <<"\n"; cout << "Total Obligation:$" << total + (total * 0.1) <<"\n"; } if (total >= 2500 && total <= 9999) { cout << fixed; cout.precision(2); cout << "Overhead:$" << total*0.09 <<"\n"; cout << "Total Obligation:$" << total + (total * 0.09) <<"\n"; } if (total >= 10000 && total <= 24999) { cout << fixed; cout.precision(2); cout << "Overhead:$" << total*0.08 <<"\n"; cout << "Total Obligation:$" << total + (total * 0.08) <<"\n"; } if (total >= 25000 && total <= 49999) { cout << fixed; cout.precision(2); cout << "Overhead:$" << total*0.07 <<"\n"; cout << "Total Obligation:$" << total + (total * 0.07) <<"\n"; } if (total >= 50000 && total <= 99999) { cout << fixed; cout.precision(2); cout << "Overhead:$" << total*0.05 <<"\n"; cout << "Total Obligation:$" << total + (total * 0.05) <<"\n"; } if (total >= 100000 && total <= 299999) { cout << fixed; cout.precision(2); cout << "Overhead:$" << total*0.03 <<"\n"; cout << "Total Obligation:$" << total + (tota

This program works ok. I get an exe file. But I would like to be able to send the output to a printer. How would I be able to send the output from the exe file after running it, to a printer? I have some code by the forward slashes.

An interface is something that makes one thing interact with another. For instance a Human Machine Interface handles the Human interaction with the machine. Is your project suppose to handle the interaction between t

This is the code and it does not work. I am getting 5 error messages when compiling. If someone could give me assistance from //#include to //{ I would appreciate it. Do I have the function in the right place? That sort of thing. You guys have really been helpful. I want to be able to print the output of a C++ program after I compile,build, and run it. All I get now is an exe file with no option to print. Could anyone be of assistance to this novice? #include #include #include #include using std::cout; using std::cin; using std::fixed; using namespace std; //#include int main() //(int,char*) //{ //ofstream printer ("lpt1:"); //Printer <<"test"<

I have written a program in C++. When I run the program it gives me an exe file. I would like to know what code I can enter which would give the user the option to print the output. Forward slashes represent the code I entered. I get many errors with this code.

Hello, I have written a C++ program. I have compiled,built and executed the program. It works fine. I want to be able to send the output on the screen to a printer. How can I nclude this option. Can I use MFC? In other words how do I display my program on a page that contains the options for print view, print,save etc. Thank You
