Actually, I was able to get that mostly working, but had some problems. First, it doesn't update the product number. I could probably fix that as he provides the source, but the second problem lead me to continue for more of an "add-in" solution. The 2nd problem is that this results in a file that has the version set in the properties, but if you mouse over it, the hover text always says, 1.0.0.0. That would just confuse my users. So, I'm searching for something someone has turned into a drop-in add-in, or something that doesn't have these issues. Also, I prefer to have the .rc2 VERSIONINFO be the source, vs. another file, although that is really nothing, I can edit either easily. Patrick

Glad you found the answer.:-D WhiteSky

Your core problem is that you're using C. If you're using C++, use the string class. If you're using C++/CLI, consider the String class. Either way, this question is about C or C++, and this is the C++/CLI forum Christian Graus - Microsoft MVP - C++ Metal Musings - Rex and my new metal blog "I am working on a project that will convert a FORTRAN code to corresponding C++ code.I am not aware of FORTRAN syntax" ( spotted in the C++/CLI forum )

Hehehehe, This is the same my partner said. He try to piss me off with "look, in VB I can print with just 2 lines", because I'm having problems to personalize a PrintDialog, margins, Bitmaps... Windows programming is not easy at all. But it is not imposible, just a question of time and being persistent. Greetings. -------- M.D.V. If something has a solution...

I don't have any suggestions of alternatives but I did once receive payment for an item I sold on eBay for £350 via Paypal, I saw the money in my Paypal account and requested a transfer to my bank which was apparently successful so I sent of the item only to be contacted via Paypal telling me the money was sent from a stolen credit card and I was responsible for the cash, leaving me £350 out of pocket after I had paid their ridiculous fees! I would avoid Paypal at all costs! Chat | Text Messaging | Games | www.uzeddit.com - Coming soon!

OMG, sorry was totally in the wrong forum. I got it solved anyways, thanks.

Thanks for the links. Turns out the problem was that I had UNICODE defined and didnt' know it.

There isn't a built-in increment (or decrement) ability for enums because you can do this: enum Bob { foo=1, bar=5, baz }; The values don't have to be consecutive. You can cast between an enum and an int, however it's up to you to make sure you only use valid values when casting to an enum type. --Mike-- Visual C++ MVP :cool: LINKS~!

Yeah, I am fairly confident that MSDN and Google combined cover the area of "common" quite well.    Peace! -=- James If you think it costs a lot to do it right, just wait until you find out how much it costs to do it wrong!

Oy.... Ok, I've confused you guys. That ToString() function doesn't exist yet. This is what I'm trying to do: WCHAR text[] = L"3/4"; swprintf_s(text, 4, L"%c/%c", m_CurrentPage, m_NumPages); to change text to L"1/2".

Geez at least SetColor should have worked :) Beats me but I'll keep looking at it...I would expect it to work! Mark

Actually, the OP is using the GDI+ classes, and they tend to always accept wide strings, and not have A or W versions of functions that are aliased-to depending on the build.  For example, GDI+'s three versions of the Graphics::DrawString(...) function all take a const WCHAR* as the string type.    Peace! -=- James If you think it costs a lot to do it right, just wait until you find out how much it costs to do it wrong!
