Learn how to take advantage of split-personality disorder when your hackers have 20 simultaneous projects! Actually, I consider the combination of a semi-controllable split personality with a tendency to paranoia as the major prerequisite to writing threadsafe code. we are here to help each other get through this thing, whatever it is Vonnegut jr. sighist || Agile Programming | doxygen

You forgot the Modified Potato Starch - very important! I have to wonder about that "modified" part. Just how did they modify it? Chew it up and spit it back? Deep fried it in bear grease and backed over the crunchy bits with a truck? Or merely bombarded it with neutrons for half an hour? I've felt much better since I gave up hope.

Well, you could try this: class A { public: static const double MAX_LASER_POWER; }; [EDIT] Oops, I forgot the "const". // In A's source file: const double A::MAX_LASER_POWER = 23.3; class B { public: static const double MAX_LASER_POWER; }; [EDIT] Oops, I forgot the "const". // In B's source file: const double B::MAX_LASER_POWER = 44.0; You will get basically the same results as using a #define since they are const.

Hmm. I left my pda with the testers today, but as far as I remeber, CComboBox'es doesnt automatically do autocomplete in the edit box, they do it in the small popup window over the SIP. Maybe this is a feature in your program, or maybe Im just remembering it wrong? Anyway, to disable the autocompletion that the SIP offers (handy on PPC 2000's since they do it for editboxes with ES_PASSWORD too) do this: SIPINFO info; SHSipInfo(SPI_GETSIPINFO, 0, &info, 0); info.fdwFlags |= SIPF_DISABLECOMPLETION; SHSipInfo(SPI_SETSIPINFO, 0, &info, 0); SHSipPreference(m_hWnd, SIP_FORCEDOWN); SHSipPreference(m_hWnd, SIP_UP); And to turn it back on: SIPINFO info; SHSipInfo(SPI_GETSIPINFO, 0, &info, 0); info.fdwFlags &= ~SIPF_DISABLECOMPLETION; SHSipInfo(SPI_SETSIPINFO, 0, &info, 0); “Our solar system is Jupiter and a bunch of junk” - Charley Lineweaver 2002

Two, possibly, but never one. Also worth to keep in mind is that MSVC hardwires ECX to the 'this' pointer for member functions, reducing the number of free GPR's to 3 (only two more than it's Z80 relative - no wonder since they both are created at about the same time :-> ).
