May be you can check if the device/emulator has enough memory to hold newly created bitmap. You can also use the GetLastError() API to know the exact reason for failure.

What about these[^]? [EDIT]bad spacing [/EDIT]

Are these not the right ones? CreateFile() DeviceIoControl() "Old age is like a bank account.

Yes, sorry. I meant that, f.Write (&FileName,sizeof(FileName)); would be the correct code to save the object in the file, not the string that it has allocated. I would be more clear in future! But the code I posted above: f.Write(FileName.GetBuffer(20), FileName.GetLength()+1); works. I have done it before (that's why I decided to answer, despite the fact I'm not an expert). Your piece of code does the same with less code! I just didn't have in mind that CString could be so easily type-casted into LPCSTR and then to void*. But you must also use the +1, so that the '\0' character be written. This is needed if you don't know the size of the string from the beginning. No mean to argue, you are right.

And see Timers tutorial[^].

Take a look in your documentation. If CListBox::SetItemHeight (...) exists... is because it will most probably be possibl to change sizes and fonts. Read about the LBS_OWNERDRAWVARIABLE style as well. And if you want examples... take a look here[^] Greetings. -------- M.D.V. If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about? Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you ;)

It may not, but given that you wanted to read the file in it's native format, I know of no other solution.

Have you tried a more WYSIWYG approach? Try using the MM_ANISOTROPIC mapping mode as it makes it easier to match your view and print output using the same OnDraw code. Here's a quick sample to plop into a new CScrollView doc/view app to see if the results are consistent on your printers. Keep in mind that it's more important to preserve aspect ratio, keeping everything proportional, and ensuring no drawing code falls outside the printable area. You will find small variances in the metric accuracy on all printers so focus more on the relative placement and you'll suffer less print anxiety. //CDocument members... // Header file .h protected: CSize m_DocSize; // Implementation file .cpp CSize CYourDoc::GetDocSize() const { return m_DocSize; } CYourDoc::CYourDoc() { // TODO: add one-time construction code here m_DocSize=CSize(2000,2800); } //CScrollView members... // Header file .h private: int m_nPage; // Implementation file .cpp CYourView::CYourView() { // TODO: add construction code here SetScrollSizes(MM_TEXT,CSize(0,0)); // Set arbitrary values m_nPage=1; } /*************************************** NOTE: The pInfo parameter is uncommented ****************************************/ void CYourView::OnBeginPrinting(CDC* /*pDC*/, CPrintInfo* pInfo) { // TODO: add extra initialization before printing pInfo->SetMaxPage(3); } void CYourView::OnPrint(CDC* pDC, CPrintInfo* pInfo) { // TODO: Add your specialized code here and/or call the base class m_nPage=pInfo->m_nCurPage; CScrollView::OnPrint(pDC, pInfo); } void CYourView::OnPrepareDC(CDC* pDC, CPrintInfo* pInfo) { CScrollView::OnPrepareDC(pDC); // TODO: Add your specialized code here and/or call the base class // Set up the DC for the current scale factor int nExtentX; int nExtentY; CSize sizeDoc; CRect rectClient; pDC->SetMapMode(MM_ISOTROPIC); // Get pertinent rectangle data GetClientRect(&rectClient); sizeDoc=GetDocument()->GetDocSize(); sizeDoc.cy=(-sizeDoc.cy); // Y goes down as it increments pDC->SetWindowExt(sizeDoc); // Window extent is size of document // Calculate viewport extent nExtentX=rectClient.Width(); nExtentY=(int)((nExtentX*sizeDoc.cy)/(sizeDoc.cx)); // What kind of device context do we have? if (pDC->IsPrinting()==TRUE) { pDC->SetViewportExt(pDC->GetDeviceCaps(HORZRES),-pDC->GetDeviceCaps(VERTRES)); } else { // Context is for

yes yes, i know about CORBA. but here, it seemed to me that the OP were not really of that advanced knowledge [VisualCalc][Binary Guide][CommDialogs] | [Forums Guidelines]
