Original error message –“Operating system not found” Assuming IDE0 disk 0 failure.. Running Windows Advanced server 2000 with three hard drives using RAID 5. Tried to use emergency recovery (with emergency disk) to restore OS. Received an error ( in setup) that windows need to write to IDE 1 disk 0 but there is no room / partition available – advised by setup to delete partition!. Declined the offer! Disabled IDE1 in setup – windows run OK. Enabled IDE 1 Disk 0 – windows runs, enabled IDE 1 disk 1 windows runs but no RAID 5 activity! Disk management reported disk 0 – dynamic on line with errors. Disk management further reported two dynamic “foreign disks” – off line and two dynamic “missing disks”. Both foreign disks reported wrong capacity. Enabled foreign disks, started windows and now have blue screen – “…cannot find boot device…”. My next step – disable IDE1 and then reload windows using emergency recovery process again. Any better idea? Just do not want to loose the data on the RAID array. Vaclav

I think I found it. The CTabCtrl is not CView derived. Vaclav

You will not find many macros definitions in "MFC internals", I think MSDN does better job. Vaclav

This code in splitter won't compile. The left pane is CTreeCtrl derived class and the right pane is CTabCtrl derived. if (!m_wndSplitter.CreateView(0, 0, RUNTIME_CLASS(CX_TreeView), CSize(100, 100), pContext) || !m_wndSplitter.CreateView(0, 1, RUNTIME_CLASS(CX_TabView), CSize(100, 100), pContext) ) Here is the compiler (VC 6.0) output: X_SplitFrame.cpp Including X_TabView.h : header file F:\Dev\0 Image\V1\Image Project\X_SplitFrame.cpp(57) : error C2039: 'classCX_TabView' : is not a member of 'CX_TabView' f:\dev\0 image\v1\image project\x_tabview.h(13) : see declaration of 'CX_TabView' F:\Dev\0 Image\V1\Image Project\X_SplitFrame.cpp(57) : error C2065: 'classCX_TabView' : undeclared identifier I build both classes using MFC New class and I used #pragma message to make sure the header is included. What did I missed? Thanks for reading. Vaclav

Not really, I want the left pane tree control OnSelectionChanged method to display bitmap in the right pane. Actually I want to have tab control in the right pane to display selected bitmas as required. I can figure out the tab, for now I just need to interact from left pane to right. Vaclav

I have a splitter with tree control in left pane and need to display bitmaps in the right pane. There are many nice splitter samples here but none of them explains how to interact between left and right panes. I tried to send message from parent to siblings but it did not work. Thanks for reading. Vaclav

1. Is there any other way to move XP to bigger drive that Norton Ghost? I got one but it refuses to work. 2. How can I convince XP to let me load Advanced Sever 2000 for dual boot? It won't let me run setup because the "2000 is older that XP". Is that a form of age discrimination or just MS being arrogant? Vaclav

I needed one of mine networked PC's (server with RAID) to autologon on startup - no keyboard or CRT. I used registry modification per MS article 310584. It works fine. The problem is I need to stop it and if I just turn the power off - I know it is a no no - the RAID gets messed up and on subsequent restart the RAID goes thru hours of rebuilding and things slow down considerably. How do I stop the server remotely? Thanks for your time. Vaclav

I need another project… There are numerous commercial antispyware resources and virus detection applications. I have not seen much code in here. Where does one start to learn how to roll my own? Any suggestions – books, links etc. Vaclav

This is CxImage library question. For starters - I am asking you to refrain from discussion about virtues of other methods, please. This library is officially no longer supported by the author. So I am asking general audience for help. I need to convert the CxImage back to CDib. CxImage class has pDib member to do just that – however – I cannot figure out how to use pDib to accomplish that. The assertion is OK but my function fails with “illegal pointer passed”. I am not including my code because I do not want to waste space. I’ll be happy to provide code for whoever knows something about CxImage and can help me. Thanks for understanding. Vaclav

I do not have space on my development machine, my project files are in 2000 server and VC++ 6.0 runs on the "client". After adding new MFC class I deleted .clw file and tried to rebuild it. I am getting an error that any of the project files cannot be accessed. The error path looks like this “..\..\..server name\drive \.." What’s with the "..\.." before the server name?? I can compile, debug and save the original project without any problems. What am I missing? Thanks for your help. Vaclav

I leave you big ego guys for couple of days and look what happened. Can you play nice? Next time I won’t ask. Are you happy? PS CArray and CxImage works just fine for me, no thanks to you. Vaclav

I need to modify CxImage library function to include CArray as a parameter. I have no clue how to include reference to afxtempl.h in CxImage project library. I am basically asking how to add to current CxImage library. I tried to use plain #include preprocessor directive but I get a error saying that I am trying to include stuff which is already included in window.h header. Using VC 6.0 and MFC. Thanks for your help. Thanks for your help. Vaclav

Christian, thank you for your contribution. I found it professional and enlightening. Vaclav K&R graduate

I have downloaded VS 2005,quite by accident. Than I discovered it would not compile MFC sample code (?!) Long time ago I spent my leisure time learning ANSI C. Read few articles about ANSI standards in C Users journal etc. VC++ 6.0 IDE works (most of the time) for my applications. So far I had no need to learn C#. As far as I am concerned VS 2005 looks like another derivative of VC++. My basic (and I feely admit naïve ) question is – are any of these – C#, VC ++ x.x supported by standards likes ANSI or others? Vaclav

Since Davide no longer "supports" his article I felt I had a better chance here. I guess I am looking for a generic advice how to add or put together different libraries. Vaclav

I need to modify CxImage library function to include CArray as a parameter. I have no clue how to include reference to afxtempl.h in this libraray. Using VC 6.0 and MFC. Thanks for your help. Vaclav

Thanks, I'll give a try. Vaclav

Yes, as always, Mike is correct. However, the CD is labeled (Windows 2003 Server). I am running VC 6.0 on XP and since I installed this PSDK I have problems with MFC assertions. In about 50% of the time when assertion fails XP gets into the act and wants to send "serious problem " message to MS and VC does not stop properly. Needless to say - it makes development harder. Happy festivus to all. Vaclav

I cannot figure out the syntax of passing CArray pointer to a function. Can anybody point me to a source of info? Thanks Vaclav
