If you wanted to keep track of more then one process then you could use a container class like MFC's CArray or CList or STL's vector or list. I don't have any idea about MFC arrays because i am using C unless if they can work in c code. But i have no idea with MFC or CList nor STL vector. You can give me a go ahead or segment code to handle it -oam-

The "crush" your program is experiencing is in some other code. Why not single-step through the code until you get to the statement(s) in error? "Opinions are neither right nor wrong.

The code i was looking for is here[^] -oam-

Well i was interested in the code i sent before as it was running in unix but it is possible run it on windows platform. I wanted to use that code somewhere in one of my programs Any help pliz -oam-

This much code to get a simple number is a maintenance nightmare waiting to happen. "Opinions are neither right nor wrong. I cannot change your opinion. I can, however, change what influences your opinion." - David Crow

Gary R. Wheeler wrote: I skimmed through the article. They are describing the approach I recommended. The application saves its state in a file, and then can reload that file when it runs again. Saving the process memory space and restoring it won't work (especially moving it from one machine to another) because the contents of the memory space includes items that you can't control. so do you mean it can be difficult in windows to implement this Gary R.

Because the process i am creating prints numbers on the screen. But i suspend it and save its state and then when i re-run it it then continues to print numbers from where it left i knew i will be moving to somewhere in my research. You can give you email so that i sed you the code oam

In process migration, there should be a way of restarting a suspended process(check pointed process) in the other machine on the network. Ifact i want to used the saved process information like baseaddress, context e.t.c after it was suspended. So there should be a possible way. But the big question how???? oam

Ok i manage to solve it. Thanks anyway.:-O oam

Thanks. oam

Well the thing worked and thanks. But now i want to specify the name of the input file on the commandline. oam

The code you gave should not compile on any compiler period! Let alone give any error messages when run. I can not remember ever seeing so many basic programming errors. If by some miricle it did run, then (Yep) it would probubly crash. Heck you stand a better chance of crashing the whole system than making that code work (as written). As for VirtualQueryEx: Why are you even trying to call it? The call appears to be used to retrieve information that needs to be stored in the structure pointed to by lpBuffer, but lpBuffer does not point to a structure, it points to NULL. The only reason the dwLength argument is correct, is that it is 0, since lpBuffer is NULL. You are also passing it a 5th argument GetLastError, for who knows what reason (it only takes 4 arguments and this is not one of them). I recomend you start all over again from scatch. What ever it is you are trying to accomplish, this will not do it. P.S. Sorry but if I was an employer, the code you gave would get you fired.

How can i block others users who logs in or deny them some resources so that they change to use other computers It is impossible to do that. If you are an administrator, you would be able to do it by disable the user account. But if you have a power user right, you would be able to disable only the account that you create.

Ive solve it by putting argv[] oam

Well, you have the idea but now i found it crushing. i get this error, " The value of the ESP was not properly saved accross a function call ... Well how can i call the ReadProcessMemory to return the size of memory the "CreateProcess()" has occupied as that i can extract it? oam
