Can you show your code?

I may not be correct here because I don't know how your COM server is implemented (design/architecture) I believe your TrialApp.exe dialog is making a blocking call to MathOperation.exe (specifically it's waiting for MathOperation.exe method to return, but this method has an active Modal dialog).

So what does your app's OnInitInstance() method look like? "Normal is getting dressed in clothes that you buy for work and driving through traffic in a car that you are still paying for, in order to get to the job you need to pay for the clothes and the car and the house you leave vacant all day so you can afford to live in it." - Ellen Goodman "To have a respect for ourselves guides our morals; to have deference for others governs our manners." - Laurence Sterne

Vista could be using 'registry virtualization' - your program will not be writing to where you think it is. Embed a 'UAC manifest' as a resource in your program to fix this problem. http://www.catch22.net

look at api starting with Net* "Opinions are neither right nor wrong. I cannot change your opinion. I can, however, change what influences your opinion." - David Crow cheers, Alok Gupta VC Forum Q&A :- I/ IV Support CRY- Child Relief

Your question is a bit too vague. What permissions are you referring to? "A good athlete is the result of a good and worthy opponent." - David Crow "To have a respect for ourselves guides our morals; to have deference for others governs our manners." - Laurence Sterne

Are you sure sStr is C:\ when you got error and also why you dont use of value return of SetCurrentDirectory? WhiteSky

Hi, Vista can be 64bit too :) MS's code for getting system version: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms724429.aspx[^] ----------- Mila

Any chance you're running a 32 bit application on 64 bit Vista? It seems that the 32 bit layer in Vista 64 has at least one bug/feature that is not present, ie: works ;-), in the 32 bit subsystem (WOW64) in XP/2003 64. If you use Msys/Mingw this manifests as a crash/error in some of the shell programs, although it appears the bug was originally "found" by the Cygwin folks: This thread (http://lists-archives.org/mingw-users/05977-msys-and-vista-64.html) has a patch from Cygwin. The issue is some change in parameter handling on the CreateProcess call in the Vista WOW64 layer, but I wonder if there are other WOW64 bugs lurking in there. If you're not running 64 bit don't worry on this particular point, but if you are it might be worth testing to see if it is happy on "native" 32 bit Vista or XP/2k3 64 bit. -- modified at 13:56 Wednesday 28th March, 2007

I doubt if SetFileAttributes() will set a folders attributes. I think it works only for files. Apurv

That depends a lot of what you are using to draw your 3D diagrams. The only thing I can say is that you need to resize the 'window' (or the control) in which they are drawn. Cédric Moonen Software developer Charting control [v1.1]

you can use SHFileOperation() function to delete a directory nave

Ya,I need to copy the pointer.. The pointers *pA3Ld and *pBDLd are created using new... So could u plz suggest one solution... When i am changing the code as follows it is working...But i din understand why? class CSpanLoad : public CCASObject { public: void operator=( const CSpanLoad & );//earlier it was const CCASObject & private: CPtrArray aPointArrays; }; //spanload.cpp void CSpanLoad::operator=( const CSpanLoad &src )//earlier it was const CCASObject & { //.... }

class __declspec ( dllexport ) CCASObject : public CObject { public: virtual void operator=( const CCASObject& ){} }; class CSpanLoad : public CCASObject { public: void operator=( const CCASObject& ); }; //spanload.cpp void CSpanLoad::operator=( const CCASObject &src ) { //.... }
