Thanks for the info. John

MHTML, never heard of this... searching the web, this could be the solution, but it seems, that Outlook Express is required. Thanks for the idea. Dirk ... Web Archive When you save a Web page as "Web archive," the Web page saves this information in Multipurpose Internet Mail Extension HTML (MHTML) format with a .mht file extension. All relative links in the Web page are remapped and the embedded content is included in the .mht file, rather than being saved in a separate folder. The absolute references or hyperlinks on the Web page remain unchanged and the .mht file is viewed using Internet Explorer. MHTML enables you to send and receive Web pages and other HTML documents using e-mail programs such as Microsoft Exchange, Microsoft Outlook, and Microsoft Outlook Express. MHTML enables you to embed images directly into the body of your e-mail messages rather than attaching them to the message. NOTE: "Web archive" is available only if Outlook Express is installed. The ability to save a Web page as a Web archive file is provided by the Inetcomm.dll file (the Microsoft Internet Messaging API file), which is installed by Microsoft Outlook Express 5. ...

Hi, because the CEditView can do FindText out of the box. I know, you can always implement that yourself, but why should I. Only because MFC does a tight coupling between Views and the Frame? There are thousands of reasons, why someone does this or that. I tried converting my application to an MDI app. With the result, that this is as much trouble, than sticking with an SDI app. Views are the same thing than Controls. Only that they have an attached document (which is no problem), and that they talk to the frame directly (which is a problem). There is no bad thing about using Views as Controls. Thing for example at the CScrollView. I can think of a lot of Controls that could need scrolling capabilites. Why shouldn't I use a CScrollView as the base class for such controls. And now think of a CFrameView that has these CScrollView derived controls on them. Boom, you get the same problem if you click on this control. I would have derived my controls from a CScrollCtrl if there was one, but there wasn't. I would have used a CEditCtrl that can do FindText, if there was one, but there wasn't ;-) Dirk

Thanks Alvaro, I hoped there was a simpler solution. Perhaps only setting a flag or something ;-) I realized it now, not overriding the OpenDocumentFile member function, but the MatchDocType function. This results in a much cleaner solution, since I don't have to copy code from the CSingleDocTemplate implementation :-) class CSingleReloadDocTemplate : public CSingleDocTemplate { DECLARE_DYNAMIC(CSingleReloadDocTemplate) public: CSingleReloadDocTemplate(UINT nIDResource, CRuntimeClass* pDocClass, CRuntimeClass* pFrameClass, CRuntimeClass* pViewClass) : CSingleDocTemplate (nIDResource, pDocClass, pFrameClass, pViewClass) { } virtual Confidence MatchDocType(LPCTSTR lpszPathName, CDocument*& rpDocMatch) { Confidence confidence = CSingleDocTemplate::MatchDocType (lpszPathName, rpDocMatch); if (yesAlreadyOpen == confidence && rpDocMatch->IsModified()) { int answer = AfxMessageBox ("Do you want to reload the document", MB_YESNO); if (answer == IDYES) { // set the document modification state to "not modified" so the document template // will not complain during OpenDocumentFile () rpDocMatch->SetModifiedFlag(FALSE); // tell the DocumentManager, that no document with this title is already opened rpDocMatch = NULL; confidence = yesAttemptNative; } } return confidence; } }; IMPLEMENT_DYNAMIC (CSingleReloadDocTemplate, CSingleDocTemplate); For a MultiDocTemplate one should perhaps close the found document in some way (perhaps via CDocument::OnCloseDocument) since the CMultiDocTemplate::OpenDocumentFile() function will not reuse an existing open document like the CSingleDocTemplate. I'm not sure wether there is a combined method for this task that can be used for a SingleDocTemplate and a MultiDocTemplate (perhaps one can use CDocument::OnCloseDocument() already) Regards, Dirk
