Microsoft Compiler Ver 12.00.8168 from VC++ 6. I could not reproduce the problem either. So I guess the chance would be high that I accidently uncommented both ans = (f()) >= 0 ? (f()) : -(f()); and ans = unsafe(f());. So far, I could not think out other reasons. DJ

thanks for your quick reply. DJ

Thanks a lots. The problem was caused by some OS modules corrupted in Win 2k. I changed to another SQL server on a third machine, now I can access via SQL Query Analyzer and my program. DJ

The box that appears when you click the '...' button is filled using broadcasts to the local subnet, on UDP port 1434, or by using NetBIOS broadcasts. It's unlikely that this will work over a dial-up connection, because routers do not forward broadcast messages. You'll need to specify the server explicitly. This may not work using names for the same reason as above, so you may need to use an IP address. Stability. What an interesting concept. -- Chris Maunder

this is true... i am merely reffering to all my customers who will be jumping on the first official 64-bit Windows that will work on x86-64... i hope for my sake, .net is available when the XP and win2k3 x86-64 versions are released!

I have already downloaded and installed DirectX 9 SDK on my machine. Thanks a lots. BTW, if the coding for video capturing should be done on Linux instead of Windows Platforms, anybody has any idea? DJ

you may use MicroSoft MAPI controls!! Take help on Microsof MAPI controls. or you may user outlook API's / Office API's to send the mail. But it will be confined to outlook only. :) Vikram

If my brain is thinking right, if there are too many messages in the queue, this code will never finish and end up basically calling itself. (I am baffled as to why you need to do a message look anyway.) Finally, why use switch? Why not use if (nIDEvent == ID_PLAYTIME_EVENT)

You are most likely right. The funciton (while uncommented) of AfxMessageBox(_T("Failed to create the main window!")); never be reached. Thus I called KillTimer somewhere in the program to kill ID_PLAYTIME_EVENT and there were no more Stack Overflow problems. But question again: How do the following codes work? Once this code being called and run, how does it exit the while loop? Is it the correct way to process the message queue? while(GetMessage(&msg,NULL,0,0)) { TranslateMessage(&msg); DispatchMessage(&msg); } From my tests, once the program runs to this code, the while loop will exit forever until exiting the entire program. Actually that is what I had expected so that some other codes can run on a multitasking windows such 2000. DJ

The only reference I could find on the web is that the older control has an unchecked strcpy in it which can overright the stack. This is a third way to overflow the stack: create an artificial recursive function, but it's rare since it usually throws other types of exceptions (though I've had it happen to me.) Could their also be a callback not being handled/exited correctly (it's not these controls have the greatest of documentation for their esoteric aspects)?

But the control is part of media player - you won't be able to update one without the other (and installing the latest media player will update the control too) -- Help me! I'm turning into a grapefruit!
