hi Vita, more questions. When I use SysAllocString in the "GetStatus" function, where should I call SysFreeString to free up the memory? Will the following script do? ---------- option explicit dim result result = GetStatus ("Item-A", 120, "Dummy") set result = nothing ------------ thanks a lot! - Lucy

I see why it's called _user_ now. At first I thought it's my RpcRt4.lib which is not up-to-date. Thank you very much, Hans.

sure, I will. I am not at work today. Caught a cold. I will post the code tomorrow. Thank you very much!

Thank you very much, Cool Ju, the coding is working now!:laugh::cool: :rose::rose::rose::rose::rose::rose:

yes, you are correct. As my previous post said, I shouldn't call m_edit.Create() in the initialization routine, that cause the assertion failure. Thank you!

great! RedrawWindow() showed my text. Thanks a lot! :rose:

AfxGetModuleState()->m_lpszCurrentAppName = L"title"

I am not sure. But in one article Nish wrote, you can use PreTranslateMessage to capture wm_keydown or other messages by the dialog instead of having it processed by the control which have the input focus. I think I should be able to do the same in my app. but :(( The GetWindow() would be a messy one in my case even it works, since I have hundreds of edit controls. any other hint?:confused:

yes, I already had it. It seemed to me that the BN_CLICKED is processed by the button itself and the message never get to the dialog. I add the following to CMyButton::OnClicked: GetParent()->PostMessage(WM\_COMMAND, MAKEWPARAM(this->GetDlgCtrlID(), BN\_CLICKED), LPARAM(this->m\_hWnd)); but it didn't help. :confused::( Any hint?

If you want, you can try to use Rational Purify Plus in order to check which functions are used by your application that are usupported for Win95, you can download the demo version and check it. Else you can check it by yourself by checking all the functions used in MSDN in order to know the OS required for that function... There are a lot of ways to know which OS you are using (where your app has been installed) and you could write an application that work in different ways depending on the OS. Hope this helps.

Correct. WSARecv() is IPv6 and is used under non-blocking I/O models. Kuphryn

Yes first you have to insert columns, then you can insert rows as items. Finally you can set each columns values for that new item : InsertColumn, InsertItem, SetItem for each column... Hope it helps, JM Earth > Europe > France > Lyon

Yes, that was a major reason I wrote my article on std::vector, to point out all the things that it does that CArray will not. CArray is a perfectly good array class ( they are not hard to write ). But how do you copy the contents of a CArray into a CList or CMap ? STL containers provide a common iterator interface. How do you sort a CArray, or shuffle it, or any other common algorithm ? The stl comes with all sorts of algorithms, and the facility to easily write more.

It seemed that after I add #include "StdAfx.h" to my generic cpp file, this problem is solved. But in my generic cpp file, all I did is some mathematical computation. No input or output involved, except for the argument passing to the function. What does StdAfx.h do here? Why I have to include it? It makes no sense to me. X|
