i changed it and i now get this error error C2440: 'initializing' : cannot convert from 'wchar_t *' to 'ATL::CStringT<BaseType,StringTraits>'

yes, its not unicode.

i forgot to add these

TCHAR lpData[MAX_VALUE_NAME];
DWORD dwType = REG_BINARY;
DWORD dwData = MAX_VALUE_NAME;

but it is a TCHAR so im still lost as to what to do to fix it :(

im trying to get RecentDocs registry info and put it in a listctrl the name part works fine but the data part i only get the first letter

#define MAX_KEY_LENGTH 255
#define MAX_VALUE_NAME 16383
TCHAR achValue[MAX_VALUE_NAME];
DWORD cchValue = MAX_VALUE_NAME;
HKEY hKey;
dwData = MAX_VALUE_NAME;
cchValue = MAX_VALUE_NAME;
achValue[0] = '\0';
retCode = RegEnumValue(hKey, i,
achValue,
&cchValue,
NULL,
&dwType,
(BYTE*)lpData,
(LPDWORD)&dwData);

if (retCode == ERROR\_SUCCESS ) 
{ 
	m\_list.InsertItem(index, achValue);
	m\_list.SetItemText(index, 1, lpData);
	index++;
}

im using vs 2008 and mfc can anyone tell me where im going wrong? :confused:

i have a function all it does it print a CListCtrl to a text file but it is hard to read with all the data temp.Format("%s %10s %s\r\n", m_list.GetItemText(index, 0), "-", m_list.GetItemText(index, 2)); this works but gives a output like this some name here - text here longer name here - text here even longer name here - text here short name - text here what i want is some name here - text here longer name here - text here even longer name here - text here short name - text here well the "- text here" should be in a line but i cant get it right here either can anyone help me fix it ive see how to do it somewhere but cant find it now

that part i know the part i cant figure out is why it cant find it i was in regedit and used the copy key name to get the key path so i know its right out of 24 keys it finds 12 and cant find 12

HKEY hKey;
CString path;

hKey = HKEY\_LOCAL\_MACHINE;
err = ERROR\_SUCCESS;

m\_list.InsertItem(0, "HKEY\_LOCAL\_MACHINE\\\\SOFTWARE\\\\Microsoft\\\\Windows\\\\CurrentVersion\\\\Installer\\\\UserData\\\\S-1-5-18\\\\Products\\\\109C30587D582624882DD8B8A2B7808B");
path = "SOFTWARE\\\\Microsoft\\\\Windows\\\\CurrentVersion\\\\Installer\\\\UserData\\\\S-1-5-18\\\\Products\\\\109C30587D582624882DD8B8A2B7808B";

err = RegOpenKeyEx(hKey, path, NULL, KEY\_ALL\_ACCESS, &hKey);
if (err == ERROR\_SUCCESS)
{
	m\_list.SetItemText(0, 1, "Found");
	ErrorExit("RegOpenKey0");
}
else
{
	m\_list.SetItemText(0, 1, "Not Found"); <--- this is the one i keep getting
	ErrorExit("RegOpenKey1");
}
RegCloseKey(hKey);

that is the code and it keeps returning error 2 system cant find file but i know the path is good i copied the key from regedit i am on vista 64 bit if it makes a differance ill take any help i can get

that worked thanks :)

SetPriorityClass(hHandle, HIGH_PRIORITY_CLASS); //high SetPriorityClass(hHandle, NORMAL_PRIORITY_CLASS); //normal SetPriorityClass(hHandle, IDLE_PRIORITY_CLASS); //low its the belownormal and abovenormal i cant figure out

i am stuck like chuck..... i can change from low to normal and high but how do i get priority belownormal and abovenormal?

i have tryed adding a manifest but in vs2008 something isnt the same because nothing happens.

can someone please show me what i need to add to my program to get visual styles to work in vista and using vs2008.

i need core speed shader speed and memory speed only. the rest dont matter

is there anywhere in the registry or using one of the wmi classes that i can get the gpu core, memory, shader speed? if no. does anyone know how to get this info?

in visual studio 6 is there a way to change the default size of the controls when added to a dialog? ex.. the static control is 19x8 default i want it to be 20x10 default. :confused:

ive tryed SetWindowtext()but nothing happens ive tryed ::SetWindowText() to but for some reason i cant get a HWND to my control till after its to late

i subclassed CButton class and have a onmousemove in it and i need to set text on my dialog i know it can be done ive done it before but i cant remember now to save my life void CMyButton::OnMouseMove(UINT nFlags, CPoint point) { if (!m_bOverControl) { TRACE0("Entering control\n"); m_bOverControl = TRUE; Invalidate(); if (GetDlgCtrlID() == IDC_STATUS_BUTTON) { //IDC_DISPLAY_TEXT is the control i need to set text to } if (GetDlgCtrlID() == IDC_SEARCH_BUTTON) { MessageBox("hi"); } if (GetDlgCtrlID() == IDC_OPTIONS_BUTTON) { MessageBox("low"); } SetTimer(m_nTimerID, 100, NULL); } CButton::OnMouseMove(nFlags, point); } the messagebox works.

thank you very much mark you helped and didnt even know it and you missed where i was messing up UNIT <--- mine UINT <--- yours btw i go it working first try after learning to spell lol
