hi, dellthinker The string "Notepad" can be in any other window's title. strstr(s, "Notepad") == 0 doesn't mean any thing. Try this one, hope it will be helpful.

HWND hWnd = FindWindow("Notepad", NULL);
if (hWnd)
{
printf("Notepad is open! ");
}
else
{
printf("Its not open");
}

Hi, Trioum Try IsDlgButtonChecked function please.

I guess pbestArray is a pointer to the array, so I think pbestArray[i][j][k]-x[i][j][k] should be (*pbestArray)[i][j][k]-x[i][j][k] And , as Joan Murt said, you should add "*" between rand() and ...(something after it). May you good luck

Thanks all. :) I think I have to learn something about Windows Message from the most basic level...

Try FileTimeToSystemTime function.

Try SHGetSpecialFolderPath function.

Steve, thanks a lot for your answer. More questions: 1.Where can I get more information about how the PostQuitMessage virtually sends a message? 2.Why Microsoft made such a difference between PostQuitMessage and PostThreadMessage(..., WM_QUIT, ..., ...)? How can we take advantage of this difference?

Someone said that PostQuitMessage function does not really send a WM_QUIT message to the message queue of the calling thread. I wonder what does this function exactly do. //Here is a simple test code /*If PostQuitMessage function sends a WM_QUIT message to the message queue of the calling thread, GetMessage(..., hwnd, ..., ...) can't get the WM_QUIT message, the application won't leave the message loop. But in this example: 1.compile the source ; 2.Ctrl+F5 to run it; 3.D&D to move the window; 4.press the corss to close window; 5.found that the application process disappear from the "task manager " It seems that GetMessage(..., hwnd, ..., ...) got the WM_QUIT message. Someone said it's because of that PostQuitMessage is called before DestroyWindow. But I can't get the same result when debugging by F5. Sorry for my poor English......thanks for your attention. */ #include #include LRESULT CALLBACK WinSunProc( HWND hwnd, // handle to window UINT uMsg, // message identifier WPARAM wParam, // first message parameter LPARAM lParam // second message parameter ); int WINAPI WinMain( HINSTANCE hInstance, // handle to current instance HINSTANCE hPrevInstance, // handle to previous instance LPSTR lpCmdLine, // command line int nCmdShow // show state ) { BOOL bRet = FALSE; WNDCLASS wndcls; wndcls.cbClsExtra=0; wndcls.cbWndExtra=0; wndcls.hbrBackground=(HBRUSH)GetStockObject(WHITE_BRUSH); wndcls.hCursor=LoadCursor(NULL,IDC_CROSS); wndcls.hIcon=LoadIcon(NULL,IDI_APPLICATION); wndcls.hInstance=hInstance; wndcls.lpfnWndProc=WinSunProc; wndcls.lpszClassName="Weixin2003"; wndcls.lpszMenuName=NULL; wndcls.style=CS_HREDRAW | CS_VREDRAW; RegisterClass(&wndcls); HWND hwnd; hwnd=CreateWindow("Weixin2003","CreateWindow",WS_OVERLAPPEDWINDOW, 0,0,600,400,NULL,NULL,hInstance,NULL); ShowWindow(hwnd,SW_SHOWNORMAL); UpdateWindow(hwnd); MSG msg; while((bRet = GetMessage(&msg,hwnd,0,0)) != FALSE) { /*if(bRet == -1) { break; }*/ TranslateMessage(&msg); DispatchMessage(&msg); } return 0; } LRESULT CALLBACK WinSunProc( HWND hwnd, // handle to window UINT uMsg, // message identifier WPARAM wParam, // first message parameter LPARAM lParam // second message parameter ) { DWORD dwCurThreadID = GetCurrentThre
