I suspect someone's posted incorrect code, with a missing or extraneous '+' along the way. Either way, the C++ standard makes no specific guarantees about the order that statement is executed in - a set of operations can be performed in any order if they are within the same sequence point and the rules of precedence don't kick in, IIRC. So we're probably looking at undefined behaviour, hence the different results (watch out for those nasal demons :-)) Ian Darling The world is a thing of utter inordinate complexity ... that such complexity can arise ... out of such simplicity ... is the most fabulous extraordinary idea ... once you get some kind of inkling of how that might have happened - it's just wonderful ... the opportunity to spend 70 or 80 years of your life in such a universe is time well spent as far as I am concerned - Douglas Adams

I thought the original question was how to make your own sizeof operator. If you use sizeof in your Sizeof() it doesn't count ;P --Mike-- Personal stuff:: Ericahist | Homepage Shareware stuff:: 1ClickPicGrabber | RightClick-Encrypt CP stuff:: CP SearchBar v2.0.2 | C++ Forum FAQ ---- You cannot truly appreciate Dilbert unless you've read it in the original Klingon.

All you need is apply,ok method implemented in each tab pages, can call them when you clicked on apply button on the tabcontrol (in a loop maybe). I'll write a suicide note on a hundred dollar bill - Dire Straits

Rohit, if you're looking to track it from the machine it was sent, or the machine recieving, this is possible. You need to park your software listening on the network stack, and pick up this kind of traffic and log it. If you are looking at tracking all messages that are sent on a network, success will depend on what kind of network. If it is switched, forget it. If it is a normal hub (or a switch port set to promiscuous mode), then you can "listen in". Look in the Networking section on Firewalls, and you'll see a couple of examples of how to latch on to the network traffic. Good luck. Pauwl

Hi Rohit, When Logoff or Shutdown events occur it goes in WM_QUERYENDSESSION which in turn sends WM_ENDSESSION. So as per your need you can distinguish using the lparam value. If it is ENDSESSION_LOGOFF it is LogOff event and if EWX_LOGOFF it is ShutDown Event as per my observation and Testing. Pankaj

Use WM_SETFOCUS Windows message. Send it from app B's window to app A's window. Unfortunately, as you use two seperate applications, they cannot converse by regular pointer-means. You need to search for the dialog window and grant it focus. You could, alternatively, start the app B as minimized. This can be specified by the STARTUPINFO structure of the CreateProcess call. If it is started up as minimized, it doesn't get the focus. Then, you can create a seperate function into app A that will show and activate B's window as needed. See CreateProcess in MSDN for more information. -Antti Keskinen ---------------------------------------------- The definition of impossible is strictly dependant on what we think is possible.

To get the IDL of the Recycle Bin folder, use SHGetSpecialFolderLocation(..., CSIDL_BITBUCKET, ...). A rich person is not the one who has the most, but the one that needs the least.

Hi Rohit, For Windows 2000 just add the following function to your code and call it at the start of your application. // Show/Hide the console applications console window void ShowConsoleWindow(bool bHide /* = false */) { ShowWindow(GetConsoleWindow(), (bHide) ? SW_SHOW : SW_HIDE); } Then to hide the console window, call: ShowConsoleWindow(true); and to show it again (if necessary): ShowConsoleWindow(false); best wishes, Dark Angel

Try running it from AUTOEXEC.BAT. That should cause it to run even in a DOS mode boot. "Your village called - They're missing their idiot."

I would say that what you're trying to achieve is impossible. You'd need to re-create your application as a service, then rebuild the Windows Kernel to start up your service when it boots to safe mode. And actually, I am happy that this is the way it works. Think for a moment what would happen if a virus got to your Windows and made itself start no matter where you booted ? In Windows XP/2000, this problem would be pretty shitty indeed :) Greets, Antti Keskinen ---------------------------------------------- The definition of impossible is strictly dependant on what we think is possible.

Dear AORD. Thanks AORD, I thought that my question was not clear. Rohit

There are better ways to store secret information. See the documentation for PStore[^], LSA secrets[^] or the Data Protection API[^].

There are several solutions. One solution is to simple add the program's path in the register under "Run." Another solution is to design the application as a service. Kuphryn

Thanks mike you solved my purpose:-O
