Actually from C# I'm calling an unmanaged MFC DLL. MFC DLL has an API for example: int fnSetMonitorNo(char* m_MonitorNo) int fnGetMonitorNo(char* m_MonitorNo) If I pass char* to the DLL, it will see the MonitorNo. I tried to do in C# as follows [DllImport("OfficeCTE.dll")] public static extern unsafe int fnSetMonitorNo([MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.LPStr)]string arg1); [DllImport("OfficeCTE.dll")] public static extern unsafe int fnGetMonitorNo([MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.LPStr)]string arg1); But it didn't work. How can this be done?

most of the pluging application uses COM as underlying technology , C# make it quite easy to use the plugin in any other applicaiton , there are lot of book avaliable on pluging but most of them uses sample code in C++ or VB, you get the concept from there and can implement the same using C# sementic which are quite simple as compared to COM in C++ Regards, Sunil Tonger

How to fix it?

At one point in time, batch files were processed one line at a time, with an open and close each time. So technically, the batch file did complete, but there was no distinction between the first line completing vs. the whole thing being complete. One other thing to try is CreateProcess() instead of ShellExecuteEx(). "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

Thank you Martin and others who gave quick answers! I created another file and things are pretty nice now! Help is really appreciated :)

Glad I could help! Thanks for the feedback! :) All the best, Martin

Attributes aren't part of the child tree as you are trying to use it. Attributes are considered separate by the DOM and need to be accessed via IXMLDOMElement::getAttribute or IXMLDOMNode::attributes, with the later being best for you usage as you can iterate over all available attributes.
