Yes, just assign a menu to the dialog using the resource editor. --Mike-- http://home.inreach.com/mdunn/ Help! Help! I'm being repressed!! :love: your :bob: with :vegemite: and :beer: Sonork - 100.10414 AcidHelm

The function GetSelectedItem() is fine. The problem is how I used it. I called it in my OnClick event. This function does not work correctly with onClick event. IT does work fine with OnSelChanged event. I still don't have a good explaination on this issue. Does anyone know? Vu vucsuf

I suspect that you are trying to GetSelectedItem() actually between the change, there's a point at which none is selected. You wrote the function as getSelectedItem(), are you doing this in java? You, you trator you (only joking man). Anyway, check there is a selection first then with maybe a hit test. We do it for the joy of seeing the users struggle.

If you're using MFC, use CWaitCursor. Otherwise, call SetCursor() before and after your processing. --Mike-- http://home.inreach.com/mdunn/ #include "witty_sig.h" :love: your :bob: with :vegemite: and :beer:

CTreeCtrl::GetParentItem HTREEITEM GetParentItem( HTREEITEM hItem ); Return Value: The handle of the parent item; otherwise NULL. Parameters: hItem - Handle of a tree item. Remarks: Call this function to retrieve the parent of hItem. --Mike-- http://home.inreach.com/mdunn/ "....." -- Silent Bob :love: your :bob: with :vegemite: and :beer:

Try this Code HICON hIcon; LPCTSTR lpIconName; lpIconName = MAKEINTRESOURCE(IDI_MY_LOGO); hIcon = ::LoadIcon(AfxFindResourceHandle(lpIconName, RT_GROUP_ICON), lpIconName); GetActiveWindow()->SetIcon(hIcon, TRUE); Remember: LoadIcon can only load an icon whose size conforms to the SM_CXICON and SM_CYICON system metric values. Use the LoadImage function to load icons of other sizes. :-O

this code can be used to detect the settings... CDC ScreenDC; ScreenDC.CreateIC(_T("DISPLAY"), NULL, NULL, NULL); const int x = ScreenDC.GetDeviceCaps(LOGPIXELSX); const int y = ScreenDC.GetDeviceCaps(LOGPIXELSY); if (x == 96 && y == 96) { //Small Font } else if (x == 120 && y == 120) { //Large Font } else { //Custom Font setting } the only real workaround for this problem is to use, depending on the small / large font setting, two different dialog templates.. YUCK... i don't know any better solution (other than banning the LARGE fonts).. so i would be pleased if anybody knew a better workaround..

Hello, the codegurus around the world.;) The other way is that you create only one OnSelChange(), and assign this function inside the message map. That is, all five ComboBoxes share one OnSelChange(). (Or create your own function associated the message) And, we can check which ComboBox get the input focus when this message is checked. I guess that this works.:confused: Have a nice day! -Masaaki Onishi-

I'm not sure of what you're trying to do, but if you want to know where an item is, just call GetItemRect(). Paolo ------ "airplane is cool, but space shuttle is even better" (J. Kaczorowski)
