Well are you trying to test if its equal, because if you are then you meant to do if(abc==numeric) cout << "abc is numeric"; edit: sorry i dont think i read that right, maybe you might try googling the "isnum" function.

Yes 50+ :) I did mainly small apps like a Splash Screen class, a Remote administration server, basic FTP client. Anyway, I found an interesting book on MFC online that I will order. -Ryan M.

ok ok, very cocky now. I have read many a article here at codeproject and I can't really understand all the MFC headers and all those weird APIs. Everything in MFC is so sloppy and I thought it was designed so you can be more productive. Quite the contrary, you write endless lines of classes and macros and where does it getcha? Half of what I say is probably wrong and you all might contradict me but I just am not all that fond of much Microsoft stuff. -Ryan M.

OK I have always assumed that. I might open up Word or Visual studio in a hex editor and take a look at what DLLs they are linked to ;) Does anybody have any tutorials on MFC? I would appreciate it. -Ryan M.

Thanks Michael you're a god :) :) :) I guess I will try MFC. I always though the Visual Studio IDE just used regular windows APIs. My Dad's friend that works for IBM, has a few friends at microsoft and that's who told me about Microsoft and MFC. -Ryan M.

OK thanks, I have tried MFC many times but I still can not grasp it. I heard that microsoft doesn't even use MFC they just push it on other people. I have been doing C++ for more than 2 years, I have done 50+ projects but 0 MFC projects. I understand the object oriented concepts extremely well but half that crap code doesn't even look like C++. I want an alternative to MFC. Is there any? -Ryan M.

Hello, I was wondering if there is anyway possible of creating a fancy File Edit menu, like Office 2003 using just regular Windows APIs and NO MFC! I personally do not like MFC, I don't like Microsoft, so I was wondering if anybody could point me in the right direction with my problem -Ryan M.

Hello, I have been working with Visual Studio .NET for about a year but I wanted to add Visual Studio 6 on my computer. Will a problem arise if I install it? -Ryan M.

Hello, I am having problems creating queues and I would like code, non-MFC, but pure C++ that allows a user to insert data into a queue and then display it all when they are done. Just a simple command line program. I know to use classes. Thank you for reading. -Ryan M.

does anyone have code for a simple Non-MFC ftp server, I am doing a project and I would like help. Thanks for reading this. -Ryan M.

yes now it does. Thanks:-D I can be dumb sometimes -Ryan M.

yea that helps. I dont really want to use MFC. I dont know if that code was MFC or not. I was wondering if its possible to convert an exe to a cpl file. I want code that converts the exe to a cpl. -Ryan M.

What I want to do is create a console application that computes the crc of a file and writes the file to a zip file. I have been struggling on this for weeks now and I need some help. -Ryan M.

hey chris you are wrong. With that mentallity you are just as sick as those guys that put that virus on the cd. Those people are no better than sven jaschan. -Ryan M.

The beastie boys cd comes loaded with a virus. This is a crime and those sickos responsible should be punished. Here is the article -Ryan M.

I forgot to tell you i am stupid. sorry for getting angry. -Ryan M.

uhh yeah they can. folder name like "Program Files" Okey. "Files" is a string geneous -Ryan M.

thanks. I got it to work. sorry i got pissy. -Ryan M.

sorry buddy but it doesnt seem to search for folders that "contain a certain string" and not only that it doesn't seem to go through sub folders. Also it doesnt find all the folders that contain the string. Just another thing to say it doesnt start from the top level directory, C:\ for instance. So dont go saying that yours works because it dont:mad: -Ryan M.

I tried that a long time ago. It didnt work. I even used the correct includes. -Ryan M.
