I'm grasping at straws...but have you tried opening up another database file. Maybe create a database with one table and try to access that. OR Maybe it's a sharing violation. In the past I've had trouble opening a database if I had it open in MS-Access, especially if it's open exclusively by MS-Access.

here -DKLT :zzz:

You have to do the following steps: 1) CreateFile() with FILE_FLAG_OVERLAPPED 2) Create 2 Events by using CreateEvent() 3) Create 2 OVERLAPPED STRUCT and put events (2) in here 4) now use WaitCommEvent(), ReadFile(), WriteFile() with STRUCTS (3) as calling-parameters That`s it ...

Hello Tim, Thank you for your answer , I looked at this function and still didn't understand how to do that ( Set an Event automaticly every 100 milisecond), I will appriciate if you can specify more or send me an example. Bye :)

PurgeComm It has been a while since I worked with 422, but if you are concerned about receiving the output in the input, I would still code for ignoring any message you sent out. WIN32 just doesn't give you enough control to know when a message has been fully sent out of the comm port. You only know when output buffer is empty. There still could be characters waiting on the FIFO. But, if you are just looking to kill any characters in the input buffer, PurgeComm works great. Tim Smith I know what you're thinking punk, you're thinking did he spell check this document? Well, to tell you the truth I kinda forgot myself in all this excitement. But being this here's CodeProject, the most powerful forums in the world and would blow your head clean off, you've got to ask yourself one question, Do I feel lucky? Well do ya punk?

Try SetForegroundWindow and SetActiveWindow Nish My miniputt high is now 29 I do not think I can improve on that My temperament won't hold www.busterboy.org

The other alternative is the API function GetFileAttributes(), which, despite it's name, works with directories as well. It returns -1 if the file/directory does not exist. So: if (GetFileAttributes(path) == -1) { AfxMessageBox(_T("Invalid Path!")); } else { // Do stuff... } Hope this helps. ------------------------ Derek Waters derek@lj-oz.com

There are plenty of people here that can and are willing to help with an issue, but you have to be more specific. For instance, how are you broadcasting messages right now? Generally with chat programs you know the users that are in the room. Instead of sending a message to all the users, just single one out. That's about all I can say until you give more details.

Use SHBrowseForFolder(). This article goes into more details. Joaquín M López Muñoz Telefónica, Investigación y Desarrollo

Just found this article - maybe it will be of more help. Jon Sagara "Ninety percent of baseball is mental, the other half is physical." -- Yogi Bera

If you are looking for a DirOpenDialog, use this function: SHBrowseForFolder( BROWSEINFO *mPtrBInfo ); Look in MSDN for detail info about the BROWSEINFO structure. You can use this for Printer, Network resource, etc... BOOL SelectFolder( CString& nFolderName, LPCTSTR nTitulo, UINT nFlags ) { BOOL bRet; char pszPath[MAX_PATH]; BROWSEINFO mPtrBInfo; mPtrBInfo.hwndOwner = NULL; // HWND mPtrBInfo.pidlRoot = NULL; // LPCITEMIDLIST mPtrBInfo.pszDisplayName = pszPath; // LPTSTR mPtrBInfo.lpszTitle = nTitulo; // LPCTSTR mPtrBInfo.ulFlags = nFlags | BIF_RETURNONLYFSDIRS; mPtrBInfo.lpfn = NULL; // BFFCALLBACK mPtrBInfo.lParam = 0L; // LPARAM mPtrBInfo.iImage = 0; // int if ( OleInitialize( NULL ) != S_OK ) AfxMessageBox( "Error inicializando OLE" ); ITEMIDLIST *mPtrIList = SHBrowseForFolder( &mPtrBInfo ); bRet = SHGetPathFromIDList( mPtrIList, pszPath ); OleUninitialize(); if ( bRet ) nFolderName = pszPath; return bRet; }

Thanks, Michael. You are correct. In my haste to post, I forgot to try and compile :-O Chris
