I can only assume you mean when the compiler is expecting an l-value on the left-hand side of an assignment: i=10; is fine so long as i was not defined as a constant. More obviously: 10=3; will give you an l-value error because 10 is not an l-value and therefore cannot be assigned to anything else. 10 is 10, and cannot be anything else!:-D I hope this helps, Zoltan

Hi, I am more of an embedded programmer so I this may not be correct for your situation but this is my experience from the past. '.lnk' files are normally link files, they tell the linker how to join (link) different modules of code, in the old days programmers wrote their own link files, but it is often done by the programming environment now. '.obj' files are object files, they are intermediate files generated from the aseembler prior to being linked together to form the final program. Op Code From your example 'Mov 70h,#29h', 75 will be the 'op code' for the instruction 'Mov', the source & destination are added to the end of it ie 75,70,29 = 757029 So the result for 'mov r1,#20h' will be 75,??,20 where ?? = the address (index) of r1. Hope this helps a bit. Ali

I recomend qt if you are willing to stick with C++ only for the GUI. (can mix C code in elsewhere of course, just not the GUI). Worth the price in my opinion, but I can't convince the boss of that... http://www.trolltech.com/ wxWidgets is another common C++ toolkit, which is nice enough and free. Normally allows your application to look like it was designed for that platform. (looks like a mac app on Macs, windows apps on windows) The license isn't a big deal. http://www.wxwidgets.org/ GTK is a free C tool kit (with some C++ wrappers that some hate and others love). http://www.gtk.org/ Java makes a claim to cross platformness and you can call native code if you jump through a lot of hoops. I don't recomend it, but you can make it work. http://www.geocities.com/SiliconValley/Vista/7184/guitool.html has some interesting links on this issue, but I haven't explored it. Check out google too. Watch the licensing on the free toolkits. So long as you are aware of what is allowed and what is required, it isn't a big deal. Not watching them could end up digging a big hole.

There is no such thing as a TSR in Windows. THe closet match is a Windows Service. In VB.NET, easy, just start a Windows Service project. RageInTheMachine9532

Why? It's already been done and won't take you at least 6 months to write it if you go buy PCAnywhere or something equivelent. Microsoft has their's, called RemoteDesktop... You'll be writing 2 seperate apps to do this. The server will run on the machine you want to control, while the client will run locally. You'll be P/Invoking ALOT of Windows API functions on the server to get the screen image, follow the mouse and keyboard events, and post new keyboard and mouse events coming from the client. This kind of project will take an average of 6 months to develop. How much do you get paid in 6 months? Compare that to the off-the-shelf cost of PCAnywhere... RageInTheMachine9532

Use the Win32 registry functions. Ugly, yes, but they work:// First create the key. HKEY hNewKey = NULL; DWORD disposition = 0; DWORD error = ::RegCreateKeyEx(HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, "Software\\Extensions\\Demo App", 0, NULL, REG_OPTION_NON_VOLATILE, KEY_ALL_ACCESS, NULL, &hNewKey, &disposition); // Now create the value char myString[] = "Some Data"; error = ::RegSetValueEx(hNewKey, "Some Value", NULL, REG_SZ, myString, sizeof(myString)); See MSDN on RegCreateKeyEx and RegSetValueEx for more info. (The code I provided is just a rough example... should compile and work but I can't be sure!) Sometimes I feel like I'm a USB printer in a parallel universe.

I believe what you are looking for is a BHO, Browser Helper Object. This is implemented using COM. So, no, no direct Win32 API. -- Joel Lucsy

Thanks a lot for ur help. well i shall try it now. ComputerNewton

i had searched the entire MSDN. but hadnt found. i got it using WTL in Codeproject. but i want it strictly in MFC but not in wtl/atl/other. how shall i get that for that in msdn.microsoft.com i got something, which not working. ComputerNewton
