I'm very interested! I would love to find out more. [url=http://globolstaff.com/\][color=#EDF8FF][u]website promotion[/u][/color][/url]

Cool, works great Thanks Iain! Wim

Start > Settings > Control Panel, Administrative Tools, Performance. Go to the System Monitor node in the tree. If there are graphs already showing, you may want to click the New Counter Set button (first in the toolbar). Now click + (add), then in the Add Counters box, select the Process performance object, then Handle Count in the counters list and the process you want to monitor in the Instances list. Click OK. If you want to monitor over a longer time, you can use the logging features instead. Expand 'Performance Logs and Alerts' in the tree, then select Counter Logs. Right-click in the right-hand pane and choose New Log Settings. To view the logged data, use the System Monitor (click the cylinder toolbar button next to the chart button). It's incredible how few people know that Windows has built-in extensible monitoring of performance information. I'm currently looking into adding performance counters for our server application - not very easy in unmanaged code, but the .NET Framework has much simpler support through the System.Diagnostics.PerformanceCounter class. Stability. What an interesting concept. -- Chris Maunder

That's because you allocate the data you "stuff" in one module (dll), and delete it in the second one (exe). Arguably the easiest way to get around this problem is to follow Michael Dunn's advice.

Michael, Just wanted to thank you again for your excellent answer. Got it working now. Regards Wim

Thanks Michael, That worked like a charm Regards Wim

And a nice way to do it! Just fits my needs. Thanks for that :)

Look at the "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\App Paths" entry in Registry. It's the modern approach now. You may use it for your purpose. For example, HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\App Paths\someserver.exe @="S:\SRV7\Run\Release\bin\someserver.exe" "Path"="S:\SRV7\Run\Release\bin\;S:\SRV7\Run\Release\dll\" NOTE There is the separator ";" between pathes. With best wishes, Vita

Easy but efficient :) Thanks!

That did the trick! Thanks for your help Wim

But.. you can embed a common dialog inside another dialog and then call it... And if you can do so, you'll be able to use the newly created dialog as a property page (This is only a suposition)... Here's how to do it: (following the sample in the book) and referring to embed the common dialog inside a normal dialog... - Create a new dialog. - insert a group control where you'll want to get the common dialog inserted. - change it's ID to: stc32(=0x045f) if you cannot do it, contact me, I'll email you a sample (not in a property page but inside a dialog), the conversion should be easy... Remember... I'm not sure if this work inside a property page, but it seems that it should do it... Hope this helps...

Looks like I first had to dig in the codeproject articles :-O : This[^] article shows in detail how to do it...

Two problems. First, change SortItems ( SortFunction, (LPARAM) m_cListCtrl ) to SortItems ( SortFunction, (LPARAM) &m_cListCtrl ) // add ampersand Second, you are thinking lParam1 and lParam2 are the item indexes, but they are not, they are the lParam data associated with the two items being compared. They are always 0 because you probably don't use those data members. --Mike-- PROCRASTINATION: Hard work often pays off after time, but laziness always pays off now. BUY MY SOFTWARE!! (please?)

I think this is also discussed by Joe Newcomer, under his MVP tips 'CString Management' ... its still a pain in the rear though good luck !

WTL has a ATLGetDefaultGuiFont( ) which uses ::GetStockObject( DEFAULT_GUI_FONT ). I think this might be what you are looking for. Otherwise you could always require the users of your control to do a m_wndMyControl.SetFont( GetFont( ) ); after your control has been Create'd/Sublcass'ed, assuming m_wndMyControl is a member variable in a dialog - GetFont( ) returns the font of the dialog.

Hi Philip, Thanks for the zip file. I've downloaded it and everything seems to work again! :-D I really appreciate it that you've helped me out! Thanks Wim
