Try using ShellExecute() with the name of the text file as the third parameter. "The pointy end goes in the other man." - Antonio Banderas (Zorro, 1998)

Should have refreshed before posting, seems David was a little quicker than me on this occasion :doh: Ant.

I would really be happy, if someone could sort this problem.

I'm using MFCs

Firstly, looking at the code that you've posted, I suspect the reason why it now suddenly works is because your control is a regular static window (used for read-only text disply etc) and not an edit control, as was assumed. I tend to use a switch statement to distinguish between the control types (there are other types such as CTLCOLOR_DLG and CTLCOLOR_LISTBOX) Secondly, you can target a specific control by quering its control id. For Example:if(pWnd->GetDlgCtrlID() == IDC_EDIT_INPUT) { pDC->SetTextColor(RGB(0,190,0)); pDC->SetBkMode(TRANSPARENT); } I Dream of Absolute Zero

I believe you use regsvr32 to register and regsvr32 /u to unregister. "The pointy end goes in the other man." - Antonio Banderas (Zorro, 1998)

Thanks for replying to the message. Sorted the problem last night. A memory allocation problem. Used malloc to solve the problem.

Something like: int x = 0; while (isdigit(strPacket[x])) { str1 += strPacket[x]; x++; } str2 = strPacket.Mid(x); However, if you are always breaking between the 8th and 9th characters, just use Left() and Mid(). "The pointy end goes in the other man." - Antonio Banderas (Zorro, 1998)

Could you post some example code? Too vague a question to really know what's going on. Remember, even if you win the rat race, you're still a rat.

Where have you defined the dialog classes? In MainFrame or directly in some function? Robert-Antonio "CRAY is the only computer, which runs an endless loop in just 4 hours"

Set Notify and Owner Draw style to the button (do not use Static control, because Static cannot be owner-drawn) In draw routine, you should draw a blue underlined text Handle a BN_CLICKED of the control: ShellExecute(NULL, _T("open"), _T("http://www.mff.cuni.cz"), NULL, NULL, SW_SHOWNORMAL); Enjoy!

At what stage do you need a pointer to the dialog? Steve S

Very simple, get the pointer of dialogA in dialogB, then in the eventhandler of the button in dialogB do the following pDlg1->SetDlgItemText(IDC_XXX,"Text"); I have lost more blood shaving than on the battlefield - Adolf Hitler

There is nothing wrong with declaring a variable extern and then defining it in the same compilation module. Tim Smith I'm going to patent thought. I have yet to see any prior art.

This is wrong way to pass multi paramater in thread, instead use #include "process.h" beginthread(MyFun,0,reinterpret_caste(this)); . . MyFunc(LPVOID pThis); DWORD CMyclass::MyFunc(LPVOID pThis) { CMyClass *pThisObj = static_cast(pThis); pThis->UseurClassFunctions..... . . . } regards Balkrishna Talele

Thank You

How will it work??? IDC_EXIT_BOX_ONE is a dialog item of the other dialog. to do this you need to have the pointer of the other dialog CDialog1 *pDlg1; so from the second dialog //in CDialog2 you say pDlg1->GetDlgItemText(IDC_EXIT_BOX_ONE, STATUS); pDlg1->SetDlgItemText(IDC_EDIT_BOX_ONE, "TEST APPLICATION"); 1.Why do people not wearing a wrist watch look at their wrist for time when people ask for time. 2.Why do people ask for time from people who are not wearing a wrist watch.
