Nibu thomas wrote: One or more of the controls in the dialog could be having help ids. Yep. I searched for HID* in the .rc file and didn't find anything. I thought it might be corrupted, since if a control was set to true, it's label should be appearing in the .hm file. I then went through each dialog (100+) in the resource editor, selecting all controls and ensuring the HelpID was false. One of the dialogs had it set to true for all controls, but all of the controls were unlabelled. (set to their ID numbers) I created a new project, set the HelpID flag to true, and changed the ID to a number. (1001) Sure enough it failed to compile. I tried changing the ID to TEST, and it wrote the help ID in the .hm as HTEST. I guess the HelpID writer doesn't like IDs starting with numbers - H1001 should be a valid label for a #define.

I used the following code: -------------------------- void IsValid(LPCOLESTR pFileName) { IMoniker* pMonk; HRESULT hr = CreateFileMoniker(pFileName, &pMonk); if ( SUCCEEDED(hr) ) { pMonk->Release(); wcout << L"'" << pFileName << L"' is valid.\n"; return; } wcout << L"'" << pFileName << L"' is NOT valid.\n"; } int main(int argc, char* argv[]) { OleInitialize(NULL); IsValid(OLESTR("auxa.txt")); IsValid(OLESTR("aux.txt")); IsValid(OLESTR("aux .txt")); IsValid(OLESTR("C:\\ filename.txt")); IsValid(OLESTR("C:\\auxa.txt")); IsValid(OLESTR("C:\\aux.txt")); IsValid(OLESTR("C:\\aux .txt")); OleUninitialize(); return 0; } And got this in output: ----------------------- 'auxa.txt' is valid. 'aux.txt' is valid. 'aux .txt' is valid. 'C:\filename.txt ' is valid. 'C:\auxa.txt' is valid. 'C:\aux.txt' is NOT valid. 'C:\aux .txt' is NOT valid. Seems to work only for fully qualifed paths.

you can try following macro: Public Sub ExploreProjectFolder() Dim proj As Project = DTE.ActiveDocument.ProjectItem.ContainingProject Dim path As String = proj.Properties.Item("FullPath").Value Dim proc As New System.Diagnostics.Process proc.Start("explorer.exe", path) End Sub i didn't do any thorough testing, so be warned...

Wink is fine for the occasional use, and you get good stuff to show off. However, there's a macromedia product (the name of which escapes me) which has an impressive feature: adding sensible balloons (sp?) to the action you just did (like "Enter frobnotz", "click OK") - it doesn't make much to much sense for a simple, well designed dialog, but it's great for a more complex UI, as it is much faster to edit orremove, then to add the ones you need. One request, though: - use an off-color color scheme when recording - use a none-default Mouse pointer when recording - use 800x600, so a maximized player on 1024x768 does not need to scale it down Please please please please. We say "get a life" to each other, disappointed or jokingly. What we forget, though, is that this is possibly the most destructive advice you can give to a geek. boost your code || Fold With Us! || sighist -- modified at 1:50 Thursday 1st December, 2005

I knew that was part of the deal, but I thought the Sun's VM was included in the OS as part of the deal. I just read some MS docs that say the company is not permitted to redistribute Sun's VM.

I'm guessing it's both but a little bit more of the loony. ;) The man who smiles when things go wrong has thought of someone he can blame it on. If you tell a man there are 300 billion stars in the universe, he'll believe you. But if you tell him a bench has just been painted, he'll have to touch it to be sure.
