Well, you could use something like reshacker to modify GINA, msgina.dll. You can't put an image in the incorrect password message as it is created by MessageBox(), but you could edit the text for incorrect password... Also you can modify the windows XP banner above login fields, but not sure if thats the same DLL, or another one... //Johannes

I draw a frameless form and do my buttons with bitmaps, so I can make them look however I like, do rollovers, etc. Christian Graus - Microsoft MVP - C++ "also I don't think "TranslateOneToTwoBillion OneHundredAndFortySevenMillion FourHundredAndEightyThreeThousand SixHundredAndFortySeven()" is a very good choice for a function name" - SpacixOne ( offering help to someone who really needed it ) ( spaces added for the benefit of people running at < 1280x1024 )

One way could be...

I found this article and sample source ... http://www.codeproject.com/dialog/skinsyse.asp Very useful when I wrote my first skinned app. I had to extended the functionality a lot to accomodate all the features I eventually required but it was a great starting point. You simply derive your main dialog class from the SkinDialog class provided in the article. Steve T

There are many articles about these topics here on CP. Don't try it, just do it! ;-)

From a command prompt, redirect the output of your program to the printer by typing: program > prn BTW, for future posts, there is no need to post all of your code, only the relevant parts. Asking folks to wade through a bunch of code is a sure-fire recipe for getting little to no help. "Opinions are neither right nor wrong. I cannot change your opinion.

sorry but, when i read your code, i can't see anything beetween //#include and //{ , except the main header. Visibly, you are missing some code, or the <> were understood as HTML tags by IE TOXCCT >>> GEII power [toxcct][VisualCalc]

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. #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"<

#include <fstream> int main(int, char*) { ofstream Printer ("lpt1:"); Printer << "Test" << endl; return 0; } Works if the printer is connected to your parallel port, not sure about USB printers.

Well, if you are running your program from a command prompt, just redirect its output to the printer like: C:\> myprog.exe > prn or C:\> myprog.exe > lpt1 "Opinions are neither right nor wrong. I cannot change your opinion. I can, however, change what influences your opinion." - David Crow

You have everything in the correct place. Just change the line cin >> amount; to cin >> input; I ran the code as posted here (added missing closing braces) and it ran fine.

Actualy yes! I beleive you want to know more about regions. You can use the to shape windows and buttons, etc... . That is you could use a region to shape a window shaped like a light bulb. I have not done anything like that for a couple of years, so search for regions at CP. There are quite a few aticles on the subject. I just cann't remember the exact ones you need to read. Good Luck!

Take the input as a string, then strip out the comma and then use atoi to convert the string to an integer. string input; int number; cin >> input; int pos = input.find(','); while (pos != -1) { input.replace(pos, 1, ""); pos = input.find(','); } number = atoi(input.c\_str()); cout << number << endl; "You're obviously a superstar." - Christian Graus about me - 12 Feb '03 "Obviously ???  You're definitely a superstar!!!" mYkel - 21 Jun '04 Within you lies the power for good - Use it!

(assuming you have a UI with somesort of edit box ) you need a masked edit that will do the job of converting the string to a valid number. http://www.codeproject.com/editctrl/#Masked+and+Validating+controls or maybe, just thinking about it, use some of the localization API, for example GetNumberFormat Maximilien Lincourt Your Head A Splode - Strong Bad
