Can somebody help me showing me how do I create two differente types of view. My project is using ATL/WTL and is a MDI. What I need is to be able to show two Childwindows with different content. One of them has to show my sales and the other my clients catalog.

So you think every body is like you

My main problem is how do I pass a pointer of my connection object to the childviews, where the pointer is a public member of my childframe. Is there some way from my view that I could get a reference of the parent childframe? Can somebody please help me.

The main reason of asking this in this forum, was because I found that the message handling of the events is handled in diferent ways. So the way is handled in MFC projects is not the same as in WTL projects. So I rather be asking this to people of this forum because my project is an WTL/ATL project.

Can somebody show me how do I implement in my view the event on item expanding using a CTreeViewCtrl derived class. Thanks:(

Does anybody knows how can I solved the following problem. When I make a ATL Project with the ATL/WTL AppWizard and I try to use the ClassWizard, I get the following error: The ClassWizard database c:\app\app.clw does not exist. Would you like to build it from your sorce files? After selecting my source files, it won't rebuildem. Does anybody knoes how can I correct(prevent) this problem. This happens also in my first time Visual C++ installation.

Can somebody show me how should I work with an CComPtr pointer. Are there any web links wich I can follow.

Can you please tell me how do I do that. Thank you:zzz:

Can somebody help me eliminate the following error. I get this error when I compile for Release and not for debug. --------------------Configuration: esContaX - Win32 Release-------------------- Linking... LIBCMT.lib(crt0.obj) : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _main Release/esContaX.exe : fatal error LNK1120: 1 unresolved externals Error executing link.exe. esContaX.exe - 2 error(s), 0 warning(s) I Know this error is related to that the function _main is somehow unrichable. But why could this happen only in release mode. :confused:

:confused:I´m trying to convert a float to a char with the following code: double Total; char buffer[50]; Total = GetDouble(dbf, 2) + GetDouble(dbf, 3) + GetDouble(dbf, 4); _gcvt(Total,10,buffer); But the result is allways the same, even if the value of Total equals cero. Can some body help me.

Yes, I have the following Function wich calls the BROWSEINFO API, but when I run this on Win98 I get an exception, but on winME everything works OK. Can somebody help me solve this problem.:confused: BOOL folderDialog(const HWND parent, const char *topic, char *result, const bool allowNew, const int extraFlags) { // CoInitialize must be called to support BIF_USENEWUI. OleInitialize(NULL); LPMALLOC pMalloc = NULL; LPITEMIDLIST pidl = NULL; BROWSEINFO bi; ZeroMemory(&bi, sizeof(BROWSEINFO)); // set the bi's default values bi.hwndOwner = parent; bi.lpszTitle = topic; bi.ulFlags = BIF_STATUSTEXT | extraFlags; if (!allowNew) { bi.ulFlags = bi.ulFlags; } pidl = SHBrowseForFolder(&bi); if(pidl != NULL) { SHGetPathFromIDList(pidl, result); // free memory if (FAILED(SHGetMalloc(&pMalloc))) { throw "SHGetMalloc Failed!"; } pMalloc->Free(pidl); pMalloc->Release(); OleUninitialize(); return (BOOL)strlen(result); } OleUninitialize(); return FALSE; }

I´m trying to show the Folder dialog. Does any body knows where can I get a sample ATL/WTL project with this.

Thakn you for your answer. Seems like everything it`s dificult not knowing how to do it

The problem is when I click on the combos down arrow, it won`t display the list. The list does contains some items. But I can`t see them.

First I appreciate your answer. But What I really want to know is, if it is a good idea to use a Grid that resides in a DLL. And if so How do I create an Object of it. I did this but with MFC and the autogenerated wrapper classes and everything works OK but I don`t know how to use it in a ATL/WTL project. This is because if I try to use the generated class I get some error about undefined class.:omg:

I have this code wich creates a Grid, this works using a wrapper class. CdxDBGrid m_grid; m_grid.Create(_T("TestGrid"),WS_CHILD|WS_VISIBLE, CRect(1, 2, 3, 4), this, 1); So the question How do I achive the same as above but with a pointer. Or how do I create a View with my pointer. IdxDBGridPtr m_pGrid:((

How do I set my combos height wich resides in a DialogBox:zzz:

Ok this is the complete code CString strSection = "Files"; CString strStringItem = "DataFiles"; m_strAppPath= theApp.GetProfileString(strSection, strStringItem); // the value of m_strAppPath Now is = C:\esContaX\Archivos\TblPols.dbf TRACE(m_strAppPath.GetBuffer(m_strAppPath.GetLength())); //so trace shows C:\esContaX\Archivos\TblPols.dbf m_strAppPath.TrimRight('\\'); TRACE(m_strAppPath.GetBuffer(m_strAppPath.GetLength())); //Now trace shows the same value C:\esContaX\Archivos\TblPols.dbf return TRUE;

My problem is: I´m trying to replace my file name from the CString wich value is "C:\esContaX\Archivos\TblPols.dbf" to finish with something like this: "C:\esContaX\Archivos\" using the following code: m_strAppPath.TrimRight('\'); , but I get the following errors: --------------------Configuration: esContaX - Win32 Debug-------------------- Compiling... esContaX.cpp C:\esContaX\esContaX.cpp(230) : error C2001: newline in constant C:\esContaX\esContaX.cpp(232) : error C2143: syntax error : missing ')' before 'return' C:\esContaX\esContaX.cpp(232) : warning C4305: 'argument' : truncation from 'const int' to 'char' C:\esContaX\esContaX.cpp(232) : warning C4309: 'argument' : truncation of constant value Error executing cl.exe. esContaX.exe - 2 error(s), 2 warning(s) Can somebody help me showing me how can I acomplish this.
