CWinApp::CreatePrinterDC will give you a dc for the active printer, and pDC->GetDeviceCaps(PHYSICALWIDTH), pDC->GetDeviceCaps(PHYSICALHEIGHT) will give you the paper dimensions.

Once you have the dimensions, fill the background with a color of your choice, and then use the dimensions to draw a white "paper" rectangle using pDC->Rectangle.

If you want zooming, you'd have to use SetWindowExt/SetViewportExt in OnPrepareDC to set your zoom level.

Pssst. You see that little light on your monitor? That's actually a government installed spy camera. Smile and wave to big brother!

Hey Thanks for this info.. Well, I don't want a print preview per se.. Just want my interface to be that way, with zooming and scrolling.. Anyway, thanks again. This will be a good help as well...

If you look at MS Word, with a new blank document.. and then choose View->Print Layout menu.. Now, you'll see the white page on the brown/gray background.. on a 100% view

I know that on normal circumstances, the client area of CView entirely occupies the client area of the CCHildFrame..

Now with the Print-Layout View, Is it possible that the white page is drawn on the CView client area but it is NOT occupying the whole client area of CCHIldFrame so thats why we are seeing the background color of CChildFrame?

Or is the white page and the background color are all drawn together in the client area of CView?

Here's a very simple implementation that simulates drawing a page.

First, create an SDI project that uses CScrollview as its view class.

Make the following changes to the myview.cpp file.

1) Add two constants to the top of the file:

<br />
// Origin for the top/left of the paper<br />
CPoint  g_ptOrigin(50,50);<br />
<br />
// Paper dimensions (simulates a 8.5 x 11" page)<br />
CRect   g_rcPaper(0, 0, 850, 1100);<br />

2) In the OnDraw function, insert the following code:

<br />
pDC->SetBkMode(TRANSPARENT);<br />
pDC->Rectangle(g_rcPaper);<br />
pDC->TextOut(50, 50, _T("This is a test"));<br />

3) Create an override for OnPrepareDC, and insert the following code after the call to the base class:

<br />
<br />
// Map the logical origin to the device origin<br />
// This makes the top left of the client area act like (-50,-50), and the top/left of the page act like (0,0)<br />
pDC->OffsetWindowOrg(-g_ptOrigin.x, -g_ptOrigin.y);<br />
<br />

4) Add a handler for the ON_WM_ERASEBKGND message and replace with the following code:

<br />
CRect rcClient;<br />
GetClientRect(rcClient);<br />
pDC->FillSolidRect(rcClient, RGB(127,127,127));<br />
return (TRUE);<br />

- Step 4 draws your gray background
- Step 3 offsets the dc origin so that drawing is relative to the top left of the paper, not the top left of the client area
- Step 2 draws the paper, with the offset in place

Pssst. You see that little light on your monitor? That's actually a government installed spy camera. Smile and wave to big brother!

Check the lpServiceStartName parameter of CreateService()[^]. Make sure this user has access to to required network resource.

Thanks a lot
But, Do You Mean That I Can LogOn To System via
CreateService() ? i.e I Can Determine the UserName
and Password In this Function !!!Or a service Can Act
As Users? It is Something new for ME,
Would you pls, Discuss A little about your Idea?

By default when you double click a exe it runs under the same user account by which you logged on the the system. But a service starts executing before a user login to the system. So you have to say to the system, under which user account the service should be run, this should be done while the service is created/registered to the system.
CreateService() is the API to Create/register the service with the system and
lpServiceStartName & lpPassword are parameters through you say to the system, under which user account the system should run your application as service.

In MFC applications you don't usually call EnableMenuItem() directly. Take a look at How to Update User-Interface Objects[^]

I don' t know if the problem was clear. I don't want to remove the ethernet-card. I will remove the cable from the Adapter. In this case windows shows a tip text message in the right bottom corner.
I thought that I can caught this windows message.

Add 1st project to the second projects solution. Now from the resource view -> Drag and drop the required *Dialog* between the projects. Remember to hold the "Ctrl" while dragging.

I assume you have a class connected to the dialog. I also assume that it is an MFC project. I also assume it is VC6.
Right-click on the dialog class. A menu appears. Click "Add to Gallery".
Then in the other project, go to Project->Add To Project->Components and Controls. Then open the folder for your old application in there. It should have a file called: xxxx.ogx.
Add it to your project. It adds the class, as well as the dialog resource.

this is this.

project dependancies in vc6.00

3-Jul-05 23:20

I have project wich is dependant on another project. I've set this in the Project>Dependancies. Project P2 is dependant on project P1. P1 contains Release and Debug configurations (builds P1.lib).
P2 contains Debug, release, Release 2 and release 3 configurations.
Where to specify that for example P2/release3 is dependant on P1/Release ?
For Release 2 this is working good, but for release 3 it's trying to build and link it with debug version of P1 althought I've used release 2 as original when I was creating release 3. I didn't change anything after creating release 3!

Any ideas ? Thank you !
