There are a number of classes (MFC WinInet library / Socket classes) and/or API's (WinInet API) all the way down to just using the Winsock API. Of course all of these classes and API's are well documented on the MSDN Web site. When using any of these solutions knowledge of the HTTP protocol[^] could prove valuable, but that's up to you.

Thanks to both of you. I had tryed that before with no luck as I think my 40MB Resource file was too far shot. I did solve the problem tho by creating a new dialog on another PC & adding a fresh MS Flex Grid. I then Copyed this section from the Resource file & Pasted it into my Project Resource file in place of the currup ones. Then After re-loading into C++ I re-applyed my previous Grid Settings & Re-compiled. The EXE & RC have stopped doubleing & My EXE went from 20MB back to 700K!! :cool: An Expert is somone who has previously made ALL the Mistakes, I dream of this day. - Lucky

i duuno much about PICs, but other controlers ... so ... first, why not doing all the stuff in asm ? ... secondly, giving 03 will always work whereas STATUS must be an alias and should be used only if it is defined somewhere as being equal to 03 (like an #include STATUS 03)(check the include files and/or your compiler settings) Could you post the BTFSC description function ?? ~RaGE();

I asked you in the C++ forum to post the description of the BTFSC operand. I think you´re just not giving the good parameter for this operand, otherwise it would compile without problem. And pls do not cross post, that will only make people go away from you. ~RaGE();

Pretty cheap as well. Only $10 if my vague memory is right Nish Author of the romantic comedy Summer Love and Some more Cricket [New Win] Buy it, read it and admire me :-)

Lucky the code machine wrote: char* text; //unsigned long* buffer; DWORD* buffer; unsigned long PerServer; unsigned long Per1_0Server; CRegKey reg; You don't initialize your variables. do this instead: TCHAR text[1024]; //May be any length suitable for the value //unsigned long* buffer; DWORD buffer = 1024; unsigned long PerServer; unsigned long Per1_0Server; CRegKey reg; reg.Open(HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE,_T("Software\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion")); reg.QueryValue(text,_T("ProductName"),&buffer); Often, when a method asks for a pointer to value, it asks for a placeholder to return something to you. but the this pointer must point to valid memory area. Also, note use of TCHAR and _T(""). Michel It is a lovely language, but it takes a very long time to say anything in it, because we do not say anything in it, unless it is worth taking a very long time to say, and to listen to. - TreeBeard

I hope im not being a pain. I tryed this and it worked fine: char* text; //unsigned long* buffer; DWORD* buffer; unsigned long PerServer; unsigned long Per1_0Server; CRegKey reg; reg.Open(HKEY_CURRENT_USER,"Software\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion\\Internet Settings"); reg.QueryValue(PerServer,"MaxConnectionsPerServer"); but when i try to read a string (the windows version name) with: reg.Open(HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE,"Software\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion"); reg.QueryValue(text,"ProductName",buffer); i get an assertation error on the line "pdwCount!=null;" (in CRegKey) if i change buffer to anything using "buffer=(unsigned long*)999;" i dont get the error but i get no data. Am i being stupid? I cant see where im going wrong. An Expert is somone who has previously made ALL the Mistakes, I dream of this day. - Lucky

Look into http://www.asynchrony.com. If you aleady have it completed your project then this might not be as helpful. But it's great when you want to market it. Ideal for me... I just want to deal with the techincal side of it and leave the marketing part to someone else... willing to give them a cut if possible. Andrew Connell IM on MSN andrew@aconnell.com

I use GetOpenFileNamePreview for showing avi files but havent found a way for images. is there a way or do i need to create some kinda shell around the standard box? - im askin you cos u seem to always have correct & clear answers!!
