CString str; str.Format("%i", YOURDWORD); yourtextbox.SetWindowText(str); I thing you can just cast it: int yourint; yourint = (int)YOURDWORD; or yourint = static_cast(YOURDWORD); should be something like this.

yeah certainly, You need to create resource only dll, this resource dll will contain all the messeage in the local language. during application load time, load the appropriate dll to display appropriate language messages. I have lost more blood shaving than on the battlefield - Adolf Hitler

MFC does a lot of work behind the scenes to pretend that you can place an ActiveX control in your resources and have it 'just work'. See the code in DLGCORE.CPP in the MFC source, particularly CDialog::CreateDlgIndirect, for more details. The Win32 dialog box API knows nothing of ActiveX controls and bombs out because it cannot find a suitable window class for the ActiveX control. If you want to host ActiveX controls in a raw Win32 application, you need to implement a control site (from memory, you need to at least implement the IOleContainer and IOleControlSite interfaces) and then create the controls yourself. For anyone who cares, MFC preprocesses the dialog template before passing it to Windows, stripping out (but remembering) any ActiveX control data and any list box initialisations (Win32 doesn't do this either). When Windows sends WM_INITDIALOG to the window, MFC actually calls CDialog::HandleInitDialog, which creates any ActiveX controls, initialises them, and performs any other control initialisations, before calling your override of OnInitDialog. In this way, it presents the illusion that ActiveX controls are controls like any other.

I use this set of C++ wrapper classes for use with ADO. I use these and I must say they work great! So give em a try... http://www.codeproject.com/database/caaadoclass1.asp

MAYBE your database service provider/driver does not support theese operations (backward seeking). Every database engine supports another set of functions, I'm not sure whether all databases supports this type of seeking rrrado
