Hello All, My programmer is saying me that reverse search (meaning which up and down search in our application,which is developed in VC++) is not possible if we use CRichEditCtrl class.. Is he right?? I feel it should be possible, though am not VC++ expert... I agree to the fact that i know very little in VC++. Please guide us whether it is possible or not. If possible,can someone post a sample code? Thanks, Rakesh

When i tried with ">>" , it was throwing an error message. error C2664: 'ReverseFind' : cannot convert parameter 1 from 'char [3]' to 'char' This conversion requires a reinterpret_cast, a C-style cast or function-style cast. can u please tell me where am i coding wrong? Thanks, Rakesh.

Hi Guys, Do we have any unicode equivalent to this _chdrive function? I made my application unicode supporting one. previously it was working fine but now it is not working and application is crashing. Previously it was having the value of 28 but now the value is 35. Why is it so? code snippet: ---------------------- _chdrive(theApp.m_Dir[0]-'A'+1); ------------------------------------------------- can anyone shed some light on this issue? Thanks, Rakesh.

Hi, Actually i have made my character set as unicode and not as multibyte in the project settings.. so its not converting fully.. is there any way to do by keeping the current settings? thanks, rakesh.

Hi All, I am actually learning vc++.. i just want to know whether it can be converted or not.. whether it is feasible or not.. my seniors have used a functions in which they have typecast like wat i have mentioned in the first message..they are sending type-cast parameter as an arugment to other functions..but it is not casting properly....its taking the first character alone.. if i say, const wchar* test = L"hello"; const BYTE* test1 = (const BYTE*)test; o/p will be 'h' alone.. Hence raised in this forum whether you people can enlighten me about this issue.. thanks, rakesh.

Hi Rajesh, I am not aware of it...so does it mean that its not at all possible to convert??
