Hi Giorgi,
AFAIK, There is no such Api to Reterive Folder name only, you have to manually parse the FolderName !

I get error ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED when I DeleteFile a file.
Any idea what are the possible causes?
thanks

File is open or read only.

Hi,
Well was that file open (while deleting ),check for the file attributes ( the file is a read-only file, the function fails with ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED.
),this is all i could think at the first shot .

The file is in use. Use Handle to determine what process has it open.

I am creating an application where the user will need to define the location of two files. To make it easyer I want to give them the option to drag and drop the file onto the child window editbox system defined class. The problem is that the edit box will only handle the built in messages and passes all others onto DefWindowProc, including WM_DROPFILES. Any Ideas how I can make this work?

Has that window registered itself as a recipient of dropped files?

Yes it has, when run I can pick up a file and move it over the edit box and the curser changes to the drop file curser. The problem I am having is not being able to define the callback function for the system defined window class, or tell it to forward messages it doesnt handle someplace else where I can define what it does.

Do you have something like:
LRESULT CALLBACK WindowProc(...)
{
switch (uMessage)
{
case WM_DROPFILES:
HDROP hDrop = (HDROP) wParam;
char szDropName[MAX_PATH];
DragQueryFile(hDrop, 0, szDropName, sizeof(szDropName));
break;
default:
return DefWindowProc(hWnd, uMessage, wParam, lParam);
}
return 0;
}

I came across this cool link that tells me how to run various control panel activities from the command line. I wonder how windows exlorer itself runs them? I dont see windows explorer doing "CreateProcess" for any of these. Any idea how windows explorer launches control panel or the run dialog box?
I am planning to use this in an application that will basically prevent kids from launching control panel while I take a break from the computer 
thanks

I think you did not get my point. I tried using a few api intercepting tools and I dont find windows explorer calling CreateProcess here. That is why I am wondering how it launches control panel?
Any shell experts around here?
thanks

Probably because it uses Control_RunDLL() instead.

It's a function used to run Control Panel applets.

It's not advertised (that much, anyway). Look in shell32.dll.

Can you not just move the .cpl files out of the way?

then I cannot open control panel either, right?, when my app is not running.
thanks

When your application closes, just move the .cpl files back to their rightful spot. Obviously this won't work if your application terminates abnormally.
Why are you wanting to restrict access to Control Panel when your application is running?

how do i pass command line argument in MFC? 
regards,
Rookie

Pass when and where ?
are you wanting to process the command line argument from within the application ?
if so, have a look at CCommandLineInfo and ParseCommandLine which should be placed in the InitInstance method ( I think they are placed there by default by the wizard when you create an application ).
are you wanting to add arguments to the executable when you launch it ?
if so, you can use the command tool ( dos shell ) to add arguments to the program name ( i'm not familiar with the format of the argument ).

thanks,i just tried CCommandLineInfo, but it returned nothing may be i've done wrong.
i just want to execute like,
myapp.exe "username","passwd"
then catch ihese inside the application.
in C , in the main() function ,we use argc and argv[] right?
in MFC ?
