hello.. i want to make the tab control aligned to the left..the problem is that when i do so via the Alignment property, the Text no longer appear visually on the tab pages!!! does anyone know how to solve this.. note:this only happens if the Appearance is "normal".if it's "buttons" the problem doesn't occur..

this also happened with me when i added some memory to my pc..the built-in sound card wouldn't work anymore even if i removed the new memory!!!!so i put in an old sound card till i find a solution but unfortunately i couldn't...

also i noticed that there's no MenuItem property!!!which of course returns the submenuitems...

hello everyone... i'm using the new ToolStripMenuItem instead of MenuItem but i couldn't find the Index property which gives the position of the menu item if it is a submenu...can somebody tell me how to get it...

hello everyone... i want to make a security project that gives the ability to control hardware parts...what i mean is that i want to click a button and the computer no longer sees the usb port and/or the device attached to it as if it's not even plugged(not disable or uninstall it's more like total invisibility)...this also contain not only usb, but ide , scsi , raid controllers etc... this way no one can connect his "parasitic" drive or what ever you want to call it to my pc... i think there's another aproach for this(beside the hiding) which is the "accesss denying" i don't know if this way can prevent the system from detecting these peripheral parts... i tried to look for this kind of articles here in codeproject but i wasn't lucky... i also tried to get something from my vs-msdn documentation and i found under "Platform SDK: Windows Management Instrumentation" Win32_IDEController and Win32_USBController but i found it really hard and confusing...if this is the right place for documentation please someone make a sample program so i can learn from it... thanx a lot..

hi everyone.. i have a little problem with UPDATE_COMMAND_UI...it seems to work perfectly in non-dialog based programs but when it comes to dialog-based ones the following are noticed: 1-the OnUpdateFileNew function(which is called by the ON_UPDATE_COMMAND_UI) is not called until my menu item is pressed...it should be called before the item is displayed.. 2-the CCmdUI* in the previous function belongs to a weird class called CTestCmdUI which is in wincore.cpp...it should be a pointer to a CCmdUI class in cmdtarg.cpp.... actually i'm new in this update command ui thing so it will be very appreciated to explain more about it to me... thanx..

thanx a lot...i'll give it a try..

hi everybody... i want to make a loop in a function...this loop is endless (except if the user cancel)..in VB i use DoEvents so the window of the program doesn't hang..what's the equivalent of it in VC++...

if i'm going to do that,i think i have to get the Window procedure of all windows of all processes...i think that's a very hard work..isn't there an easier way..

it looks like that using SetWindowsHookEx is only for monitoring not modifying...i actually want to prevent a message from reaching applications or modifying that message before reaching them..not just see what the message is...

hello everyone... i have a small question: i want to intercept keyboard strokes being sent to applications...for example i want the 'a' button to send a 'b' to applications instead of 'a'...should i use hooks or subclassing...i need to know what are the appropiate APIs that should be used.. note:i want this to be done for all applications ((processes)) not only one...

i want to do the same thing as Gdi+ dll...

i'm using the .net ide but i'm not using any new .net managedcode just regular cpp code... the functions in the dll are exported using a .def file... so they have their original names...how can i make a namespace in another project to encapsulate these functions... this is the same thing that microsoft made with GDI+...

hello everyone... i have this thing that drives me crazy..this thing is: i have a dll that exports a function "Func"...and i'm making (in another project) a namespace that has this function...the problem is that i can't use this function in a namespace but i can use it easily if it's not in a namespace...the error reported is LNK2019... what should i do..

hi everyone.. i want to use mktyplib to make a tlb from an odl file but i get this error: fatal error M0006 : unable to pre-process input file i tried the mktyplib that comes with VStudio .net and the one that comes from VStudio 6 but both give the same error... i thought the file might be wrong in syntax or something like that but i tried alot of odl files especially the ones that come in the include directory..
