Thanks You for your help! Thanks to your note, I found the problem in one of my destructors. It was attempting to delete a file that does not exist. CFileStatus fileStatus; // and get file status and test if the file exists CFile::GetStatus("temp.satdef", fileStatus); // m_attribute == 0xCC if does not exist // + 0x10 if it's a directory // - 0x04 if it's a system file // - 0x08 if it's a volume // =============================== // == 0xD0 if it does not exist or if it's a directory if (!(fileStatus.m_attribute & 0xD0)) CFile::Remove("temp.satdef"); Apparently, somehow, my fileStatus check sometimes doesn't work all the time.

try these two functions: SetScrollSizes() MoveWindow()

Thanks! :-D Worked like a charm.

You can also use CopyFileEx which accepts a callback function as an argument.

Ah, so trivial. I can't believe I missed it :) Thanks!!

I think you are right. I wasn't too sure what ParseCommandLine did. Thank you both! :-D

If you can get a pointer to the document template you can call: pDocTemplate->OpenDocumentFile(NULL) ; // create a new empty document Doc templates can be got through the m_pDocManager pointer of the CWinApp object. You need to iterate it using a POSITION object. Or, if you have an existing document object of the type you want to create, you can call GetDocTemplate() on your document object to get a pointer to it.

Yes, I read Nic Wilson's article already. Unfortuantely it does not help me though. I am looking for sliders with big and small tic marks.

Thanks Christian for the explaination. Thanks Jouquin for your help also. PJ Arends sent me a really helpful section of the code using CreateDIBSection and SetDIBits. Just like you said. I am able to display images in different bit depths now :) Thanks so much.

Thank you so much PJ for the code. It worked like a charm. I'm able to display images in different bit depths now :)

I'll ride on this topic with mine...on the off chance the original poster is using WinXP :) http://www.codeproject.com/script/comments/forums.asp?forumid=1647&select=80917&fr=176&df=2&app=50#xx79842xx :confused: --Mark Terrano

See what Dr. GUI says: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/enus/dn_voices_askgui/html/askgui08072001.asp Hope this will help /moliate

Try it before or after OnInitDialog. It's not a window because at this point it hasn't been fully created yet.

Maybe when the image is first aquired you could create a CBitmap and us the SetBitmapBits method. Then in your OnDraw you could render the bitmap instead of processing the the array each time. Just a possiblity, don't know if it will work for you. Also, for future you can use the <pre> or <code> tags for any code snippets. Or at least use the HTML encoding < rather than "less than"

Ah, yes you are correct! I was looking into the wrong place -- the CPropertySheet, instead of CPropertyPage. Thanks! My spinner works like a charm now :)
