Thank you. Your suggestion works. I got both state codes 28000 and IM006 returned when an invalid user name or password is entered. Elizabeth

Are you implying the use the Lotus mail client as the default Windows e-mail client? Kuphryn

Thank you all. HTMLHelp fixs better for us since the files can be used cross platform. We are sharing the help files with both Windows and Web applications. Elizabeth

Here is the function. Before I made the changes at Project Settings to use the CxImage class, I was able to see the values from each field at m_pListSet. Now all I am seeing is "CXX0030: Error: expression can not be evaluated". void CDeliveryForm::LoadDeliverableList() { m_comboDeliverable.ResetContent(); if (!m_pListSet->IsBOF()) { m_pListSet->MoveFirst(); while (!m_pListSet->IsEOF()) { if (m_pListSet->m_ROUTE_TO_WAM_DATE != 0 && m_pSet->m_ACCEPTED == "1") m_comboDeliverable.AddString(m_pListSet->m_TITLE + " (deliverred)"); else m_comboDeliverable.AddString(m_pListSet->m_TITLE); m_pListSet->MoveNext(); } } m_comboDeliverable.AddString("NEW"); if (!m_pListSet->IsBOF()) { int target_record = 0; //get to the deliverable if (m_pDoc->m_deliverable_id != "") { m_pListSet->MoveFirst(); while (!m_pListSet->IsEOF()) { if (m_pListSet->m_DELIVERABLE_ID == m_pDoc->m_deliverable_id) break; target_record ++; m_pListSet->MoveNext(); } } //reset to 0 if no record found if (m_pListSet->IsEOF()) target_record = 0; //set selected item in list m_comboDeliverable.SetCurSel(target_record); m_pListSet->Move((target_record+1), SQL_FETCH_ABSOLUTE); } } Elizabeth

I got it. Thank you. Elizabeth

I just found out how to generate the lib files. I have to select a Configuration before the build. Elizabeth

No problems with ADO: "Provider=msdaora;Data Source=dbsid;User ID=user;PASSWORD=flag;Persist Security Info=True;";

Use the new CImage class in MFC 7.:eek:

It sounds very helpful. Can you tell me where I find the jpeg library file? I hope there is not much work when I deploy my application to a client machine. Elizabeth

I added some lines to set state of the toolbar, but once it gets out of ON_UPDATE_COMMAND_UI, the state is reset. What I am trying to do is to set the toolbar button ID_INBOX to TBSTATE_PRESSED when there is new mail and TBSTATE_ENABLED when there is no new mail. But the toolbar keeps flashing when I move the mouse over it. Here is some code: if (pDoc->NewMail()) { if (m_wndToolBarCtrl.GetState(ID_INBOX) != TBSTATE_PRESSED) { m_wndToolBar.LoadToolBar(IDR_MAINFRAME_NEWMAIL); m_wndToolBar.GetToolBarCtrl().SetState(ID_INBOX, TBSTATE_PRESSED); } } else { if (m_wndToolBar.GetToolBarCtrl().GetState(ID_INBOX) != TBSTATE_ENABLED) { m_wndToolBar.LoadToolBar(IDR_MAINFRAME); m_wndToolBar.GetToolBarCtrl().SetState(ID_INBOX, TBSTATE_ENABLED); } } Elizabeth

The list control's parent window is the dialog representing the tab. The parent of the 'tab' is the property sheet. Get the parent of the parent of the control and set its window text. Seting the window text of a dialog changes the dialog's title. The memories of a man in his old age are the deeds of a man in his prime.

I got it fixed myself. I removed the lines from the old constructor. I guess even I commented them out, the class wizard still treats them as regular code for example //AFX_DATA_INIT was appearing in two places, one at the old(replaced) constructor, and one at the replacing constructor. Elizabeth

Got it fixed. Just realized that I need to update my profile. Elizabeth

You are right as I am learning more on using property sheet. The OnSetActive() function will work. Elizabeth
