try debugging your error handler to see what is happening. I would change the error function to receive the three different parameters and then add a breakpoint on the error handler in whatever browser you are using. error: function(xhr, status, error){ // checking the values returned should help diagnose the problem. }

Will do. Thx, Ralf ralf.riedel@usm.edu

You should do some reading about the MFC macro ON_UPDATE_COMMAND_UI and associated framework implementation. led mike

You can use of GetWindowTextor WM_GETTEXT WhiteSky

For MDI isn't the active document associated with a view in an MDI child? I'm assuming m_pMainWnd points to a CMDIFrameWnd... CMDIChildWnd *pActiveMDIChild = ((CFrameWnd*) AfxGetApp()->m_pMainWnd)->MDIGetActive(); CMDIChildWnd *pActiveMDIChild = ((CMDIFrameWnd*) AfxGetApp()->m_pMainWnd)->MDIGetActive(); if (pActiveMDIChild) { CMtxDoc *pDoc = (CMtxDoc *)pActiveMDIChild->GetActiveDocument(); ... } Mark -- modified at 19:25 Tuesday 16th January, 2007

ivfKey = szvCopy.erase(ivFKey)

Thanks for the replies. Got the code up and running. ralf.riedel@usm.edu

It looks like the constructor expects arguments. ie. CALMFKeyDlg dlg(something_here, and_something_here); You'll have to look at the definition of CALMFKeyDlg::CALMFKeyDlg to see what it expects. Steve

Well, I caught the problem. The data type and the name are the same. That's thouwing off the CP. Thx, Ralf.

Shouldn't be a problem mate, unless you have hidden the default contructor or overloaded operator &. struct thing { int i; }; vector<thing> stuff; Ryan

Just try using this member function of CFrameWnd: CFrameWnd::SetMessageText From MSDN: Call this function to place a string in the status-bar pane that has an ID of 0. This is typically the leftmost, and longest, pane of the status bar

Thanks for the input. Your suggestion worked just fine. Best, Ralf.

Made it static. Much easier. Thank you all, Ralf. ralf.riedel@usm.edu

In order to type angle brackets in a message, use **&lt;** for < and **&gt;** for >. These are the 'character entities' in HTML for those respective characters. Software Zen: delete this;

after the include put this line. using namespace std; MSN Messenger. prakashnadar@msn.com

I also do myEdit.SetSel (0, -1); before setting focus to an edit control after displaying a validation error message. This prepares the control for overwriting. /ravi Let's put "civil" back in "civilization" Home | Articles | Freeware | Music ravib@ravib.com

You can't do a multiple selection in a combo box. You need to use a list box to support multiple selections. If you really need the edit control as well, you'll have to add one of your own. In a list box (CListBox), you need to iterate over the list of items using GetSel to find out if the item is selected. For a ListView control (CListCtrl in MFC), you can use GetFirstSelectedItemPosition and GetNextSelectedItem to find out the set of selected items. Technically, the combo control is made up of an edit control and a list box, so you probably could find the handle of the list box and send messages to it directly. This isn't nice, though.

Yes. You can not do that... This link should explain why: http://www.codeproject.com/cpp/templatesourceorg.asp?target=templates%7C%2Dasp[^] John
