I would guess that this behaviour is by design. A Double datatype is only capable of storing a NUMBERIC value. A comma is not a number, and hence it cannot be stored. Only way to represent the comma is to store it in a string "Now I guess I'll sit back and watch people misinterpret what I just said......" Christian Graus At The Soapbox

input = "122.23, 232.0, 12.04" Dim i As Integer Dim str() As String str = Split(input, ",") For i = 1 To 3 value(i) = CDbl(str(i - 1)) Next Labelx.Caption = value(1) // 12223 Labely.Caption = value(2) // 2320 Labelz.Caption = value(3) // 1204 Yeah, this works. But why are the output values no float variables? happy coding, -mark os win2000 vba office 2003, vc++ 6.0

The qeustion should be has anyone ever done anything with the RealScan library? And from what I can tell when searching for RealScan, that's not very likely. Handling events in VB/VBA/VB.Net is so common it happens in virtually every app everyone writes. It LOOKS like everything is OK. There are many possibilities as to why your having a problem with it. The signature of the event handler could be wrong, the documentation on the library could be wrong, the library firing the event when it's supposed to and your not looking for it at that time, or you expecting the event when the library is not supposed to fire it, or are you supposed to call an initlization function after you create the object...

Specifying "*.3dsi" does not select any specific file by default. Originally I tested it with NULL as what you said, but no file appeared. So I looked at the example in MSDN, and found that something was required for the 3rd param. :) Maxwell Chen

If more than one byte is being read, yet dwBytesRead equals 1, something is awfully wrong. It might also be the third parameter, but I've never used the OVERLAPPED structure before so I can't say for sure. "The pointy end goes in the other man." - Antonio Banderas (Zorro, 1998)

Check the string tokenizer classes on CP The main idea, let the comma be your separator and take the values between and convert them to float or double using atof Remeber to clean the string on each new triplet received, i mean each time you receive (x, y, z) clean your string, of course after doing the processing Papa while (TRUE) Papa.WillLove ( Bebe ) ;

Yep, thanks. But it is a thirdparty .dll. I don t know if there is an childframe obj in it. Maybe.. Thanks, Mark

Yes, now you have given zBuffer the value 0. If that makes any sense cant de deduced from what you have posted, as you failed to give any sort of helpful information. So I think you know what you are doing. Who is 'General Failure'? And why is he reading my harddisk?!?

If you launch it by using the CreateProcess api, one of the parameters is a PROCESS_INFORMATION structure. This gets filled in with the THREAD HANDLE of the primary thread for the newly lauched app. After the CreateProcess call returns, wait for the app to initialize by calling WaitForInputIdle(). When this returns, then you should be able to simulate a keystroke with the PostThreadMessage api, passing the new app's main thread handle as the parameter. Good Luck!  onwards and upwards...

No, in the App Wizard, when you first create the application. If you are doing it retrospectively, the best thing to do is to create a new project and then work out the differences in the generated code (changes will be mainly to the view and resources, but also possibly to the doc), merging the code into your existing project.

As i already wrote: if you are using the MFC CString class, simply use CString::Format(); else use sprintf(); examples: csCString.Format("%d",iInteger); or sprintf(cBuffer,"%d",iInteger); (where cBuffer is of type char*) greets, jason

Thanks! I haven't found a good howto about CFile in the web yet. Always the same stuff like in the VC help.. regards Mark

macmac38 wrote: Will a "Detected memory leaks!" be a problem? Short answer, Yes. Also if you are reading a fixed length file, you should write using fixed length routines, not a stream. ie, don't mix file i/o types unless you have to.

Nice, but still generates test.pmjyyyxx as output???? Thanks, Mark

Thanks for all. I will try it out.

Do you realy want to change the project name of just the .exe name? If just the .exe name then (1)select project settings (2)select like tab (3)change the output file name for both debug and release versions (4)change the name(s) in version info. resource and any where else where is might be stored (such as your about box and string table, etc...) I just did the above today, since the internal project name was not acceptable for a released .exe name.
