Keep getting this problem in VS2008-SP1 (Win7 64bit) and all suggestion above don't seem to work for me??? Is there anything else I could do to get this sorted out. P.S. I'm getting this error while trying to add a handler to WM_LBUTTONUP in my view class!

Hi to all. How can I change( set) the active tab in Tabbed MDI app created using VS2008. I need to set active tab from CMainFrame using zero based index (what I need is a pointer to CMFC(Base)TabCtrl so I can call 'SetActiveTab(int id)' )? Thanks in advance

No the ID is the same "IDR_MAINFRAME", but they have difrerent 'Language' and 'Condition' property set. Thanks

It's an IDR_MAINFRAME menu, it loads I guess in MainFrm::OnCreate, why doe I need to do all that, why doesn't it loads corectly?

Hi, I have two menu resources (IDR_MAINFRAME) with different conditions (created using 'right mouse-> Insert Copy' on original). I use them in different Releases. The thing is I can't get second one to load, always the original one is shown. I set condition for both VER1 and VER2, I manage Project Properties in resource and c/c++->Preprocessor parts but still cant get the the second one to be loaded? Thanks in advance

I've solved it

if (!m_wndMenuBar.Create(this))
{
TRACE0("Failed to create menubar\n");
return -1; // fail to create
}

m\_wndMenuBar.SetMenuSizes(CSize(22,22), CSize(16,16));
m\_wndMenuBar.SetPaneStyle(m\_wndMenuBar.GetPaneStyle() | CBRS\_SIZE\_DYNAMIC | CBRS\_TOOLTIPS | CBRS\_FLYBY);

// prevent the menu bar from taking the focus on activation
CMFCPopupMenu::SetForceMenuFocus(FALSE);

CMFCToolBarInfo tbInfo;
tbInfo.m\_uiColdResID		= 0;
tbInfo.m\_uiDisabledResID	= 0;
tbInfo.m\_uiHotResID		= 0;
tbInfo.m\_uiLargeColdResID	= 0;
tbInfo.m\_uiLargeDisabledResID	= 0;
tbInfo.m\_uiLargeHotResID	= 0;
tbInfo.m\_uiMenuResID		= IDR\_MAINFRAME\_256;

if (!m\_wndToolBar.CreateEx(this, TBSTYLE\_FLAT, WS\_CHILD | WS\_VISIBLE | CBRS\_TOP | CBRS\_GRIPPER | CBRS\_TOOLTIPS | CBRS\_FLYBY | CBRS\_SIZE\_DYNAMIC) 
	|| !m\_wndToolBar.LoadToolBarEx(IDR\_TOOLBAR1, tbInfo)) {
	TRACE0("Failed to create toolbar\\n");
	return -1;      // fail to create
}

- Call CMFCMenuBar::SetMenuSizes() before creating toolbar - Use CMFCToolBarInfo struct leaving all members to 0 except m_uiMenuResID where you pass yours 16x16 sized resource entry - CallLoadToolBarEx() Off course IDR_TOOLBAR1 is 32x32 sized

Thanks for contributing, my app is SDI MFC. One question just to make my self clear, when I use 'Project > Properties > Linker > Input > Additional Dependencies' entering libmysql.lib mysys.lib strings.lib is this dynamically linking or static. Same question for

#pragma comment(lib, "Netapi32.lib")
#pragma comment(lib, "mpr.lib")
#pragma comment(lib, "shlwapi.lib")

entries. When compiled will exe contain those lib's or do I need to make sure that those lib's exist on target machine by building msi file? My gold is to have the exe which will contain all necessary stuff to work on win target machine (Win2000, XP, Vista, Win7).

With Release version errors are:

1>FileVersion.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol __pgmptr
1>nafxcw.lib(appcore.obj) : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol ___argv
1>nafxcw.lib(appcore.obj) : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol ___argc

My app works with mysql db and only lib's I'm linking are: libmysql.lib, mysys.lib and strings.lib. And trough my code I have

#pragma comment(lib, "Netapi32.lib")
#pragma comment(lib, "mpr.lib")
#pragma comment(lib, "shlwapi.lib")

This is an simple sdi app created with vs2008. Sure I have some CMFC controls (like toolbars and so) which are from feature pack. I didn't try to install re-distributable file on target machines.

added additional libs from my code

First let me thank you for replaying. I have following requirements I need to keep. I need to distribute my exe to multiple machines with no knowledge about OS installed. I've tried on several local computers and where app didn't work I've get different error messages. So by static linking MFC I hope I'll be able to get it to work!

Thaks for yours replay. The sample you pointed to me unfortunaly uses images only on toolbar and not menu. I've pulled some ideas from it so thanks once again!

Hi, I made an app in MFC VS2008 which works ok, but there are some PC's where my app just wont work (you allready know this story right..) so I decide it would be for the best to staticly link MFC. This produced some errors while compiling:

1>mysys.lib(my_messnc.obj) : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol __imp____p__iob

if anyone can Help please do so. I've been googling and still couldn't find the right way. Thanks in advance, and sorry for my bad language!

Hi to all. Is it possible to have a 32x32 images on toolbar while keeping 16x16 in menu. I created toolbar resource (IDR_TOOLBAR1) and set it's button size as 32x32 and load it:

if (!m_wndToolBar.CreateEx(this,...) ||
!m_wndToolBar.LoadToolBar(IDR_TOOLBAR1 ))
{
...
}

When compiled and started toolbar correctly shows large btn images but menu is also enlarged showing 32x32 item images!? How to have menu images as before (small 16x16)? My app info: SDI, VS2008 Thanks in advance!

Solved. I totally forget about resizing class included for my dlg. Sorry for my mistake.

I'll try to explain again in hope of yours help. one of my tabs contains an CDialog based window (myDlg), the problem is when tab is selected (shown) a myDlg window is shoving a resizing triangle in right down corner (also when resizing myDlg goes blank white ). How can I remove that triangle, myDlg is created with child style and border: none

Hi to all. I have a CTabCtrl on my CDialog containing two tabs, I've added two dialog window (style child, border none) to those tabs. When my second tab is selected (shows second wnd) a resizing mark is shown on right bottom corner. This is not happening with first tab. How cam I remove that mark? I don't want to have resizing option, the tab rectangle is sufficient to hold the biggest dialog size. Hope I've made myself clear, and thanks in advance.

Yes so I did. Found out the thing causing the problem. You see I inherited this app from an colleague from work he had slight different control then my own (it's work internal control we use). When overwritten, all worked OK. The thing causing the problem is when called OnIdle message notifies some wnd's of an idle time, and some of those aren't wnd at all!

I'm aware of this. The thing is there's no pattern when my app will crash, some times on this occasion and on second run on that. No relationship between?! That's what bugging me!

Hi to all. When I run my application and start to work with it, after a while it crashes! Call stack:

The error I get is: "First-chance exception in MyApp.exe: 0xC0000005: Access Violation." Any clue? Win XP, VC 6 Thanks!

Solved! Re arranging some directories in Tool->Options->Directories. Bye :-\
