You can use SHBrowseForFolder. You can also simply let the user select a file, but then use only the directory portion of the path. Even a broken clock is right twice a day.

thank you very much! /Ola Carlsson

Registry Key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\ Name=PendingFileRenameOperations Type=REG_SZ_MULTI Entry=filename.txt\0\0 Or using the Win32 API, you can use MoveFileEx with a null destination file and MOVE_DELAY_UNTIL_REBOOT. [edit]Probably worth noting, in case someone comes searching later that the first approach doesn't work on Win 9x or ME, only on NT/2K/XP. To use in 9X, you have to store some details in WININIT.INI; to use in all versions of Windows, MoveFileEx is probably your best bet.[/edit] Paul Why don't you take a good look at yourself and describe what you see - Led Zeppelin, Misty Mountain Hop

The trouble is that Exchange 5.5 is regarded by MS as legacy, and MSDN itself now almost only references Exchange 2000[^]+ articles. I guess you need older MSDN. I would use CDO[^] objects (they exist prior Exchange 2000) or DAO depending on what you like. In fact, you have a couple of COM objects that you just reference in your ASP.NET project before start using them. For ActiveDirectory, that's the same. There's a bunch of ADSI COM objects. Good luck! sometimes it helps to look at the IL generated code a MS guy on develop.com "answering" .NET issues

There is no limit here, except when the virtual memory for stack bottom reaches something else (such as a heap). Then it will surely go down in flames. :-) It can AFAIK be changed by e.g. linker flags (changing the PE flags), but to my knowledge it has never been used in production applications.

It's actually totally unworkable. You have no way of knowing what a remote domains POP server is. MX records only point to SMTP mail exchangers, and often these have nothing to do with pop. Also, very often POP servers are behind firewalls. Sorry to dissapoint you all with my lack of a witty or poignant signature.

First of all your thread proc cannot be a non-static member function of a class. Either make it static or use a global function as thread proc. Nish My miniputt high is now 29 I do not think I can improve on that My temperament won't hold www.busterboy.org

Hello, I use this bit of code to pull the text(source) from a provided url.. Maybe you can see something different with this code vrs yours. CString CUserProfileDlg::GetFile(const char *url, const char *filename) { char httpbuff[HTTPBUFLEN]; TCHAR szCause[2048]; CString Cause; Cause.Format("YES"); TRY { CInternetSession mysession; CStdioFile \*remotefile = mysession.OpenURL(url,1,INTERNET\_FLAG\_TRANSFER\_BINARY|INTERNET\_FLAG\_RELOAD); CFile myfile(filename, CFile::modeCreate|CFile::modeWrite|CFile::typeBinary); int numbytes; while (numbytes = remotefile->Read(httpbuff, HTTPBUFLEN)) { myfile.Write(httpbuff, numbytes); } } CATCH\_ALL(error) { error->GetErrorMessage(szCause,2046,NULL); Cause.Format("%s",szCause); } END\_CATCH\_ALL; return (Cause); } Rob

Text in edit box is not visible selected. Cursor starts blinking, and if I use m_editbox1.Cut(); text disappear. If I write some, text in edit box are not replaced. Code example: void CMyClass::OnSetfocusBox1() { m_box1.SetSel(1,10); m_box1.SetFocus(); // m_box1.Cut(); works, but text in box are never visable selected. } Ola
