If you don't want to use std::string, use WTL which has a CString that works just like MFC's. --Mike-- Just released - RightClick-Encrypt - Adds fast & easy file encryption to Explorer My really out-of-date homepage Sonork-100.19012 Acid_Helm

Yes you can, you just need to include MFC support. Look up this topic in MSDN. Add MFC Support to an ATL Project Adding MFC support to a Win32 app is similar.

You can use LockFile or LockFileEx to lock a specific file, or drive.

Use List View Header Control GetItemCount to fetch the number of columns. CHeaderCtrl * pMyHeaderCtrl = MyListCtrl.GetHeaderCtrl(); ASSERT(pMyHeaderCtrl != NULL); int nColumns = pMyHeaderCtrl->GetItemCount(); Hth, Ramu

Try GetCaretPos Best regards, Alexandru Savescu

If you want to create a UNICODE version of a control, you will need to user CreateWindowW instead of the plain CreateWindow which is converted by the preprocessor to a CreateWindowA call if you are using ansi. You will then have a window that can handle UNICODE fonts, however, if you want to load a font from a different locality you will have other issues to work through. If this is what you want post another question and I will try to help you. If you are not compiling your application in UNICODE, then you will be out of luck getting UNICODE data into a CString unless you have version 7.0 of the CString class. All versions prior to 7.0 compile with either chars or wchar_t, but you can not use both at the same time. Version 7.0 parameterizes the string and allows you to define the type that you want to create.

Make sure you are using the correct version of richedit control. Version 1 does not support the character position functions. Use version 2 or above. It should be defined in one of your header files.

Use EnsureVisible( int nItem, BOOL bPartialOK );

You've got it backwards. Assuming you really do need a thread -- have the modeless dialog create, control, and abide by the thread, instead of the other way around.

I'm sorry I thinked that you was talking about VB... If you want to Know the HWND of the label, you must to use the label like a CWnd, and asign it with CWnd::GetDlgItem. You can get the handle with the data memeber CWnd::m_hWnd...;) Best Regards... Carlos Antollini. Sonork ID 100.10529 cantollini

Sorry. How much do you know already about CAs, and what are to needing to do with them? I'm not late, I'm just not as early as I could have been.
