Pretty damn hard. The Word file format isn't offically documented. You might want to have a look at some of the open source Office products as they claim to be able to read Word files.
If you Word document is saved as RTF, then the job is a little easier as RTF is at least documented by Microsoft.

Yes it is tough. But if you want some info on the format check the Text / Documents section of Wotsit.

You can use the Rich Text Object Classes, This Classes supports Word Docs, You can Save in 6.0 Word Format and read word docs... Is a simple solution. Other solution is that you save the docs in RTF format from the MS Word....

You might want to have a look at AbiWord. It's a multi-platform free software word processor that can read quite a few document formats, including MS Word (I think it's from V.5 and onwards).
It's GPL so it comes with complete source.

Hi,
I have a thread created as
_beginthreadex(NULL, 0,MyMainThread, this, 0, &the_lThread);
In that MyMainThread() i will create one more thread as
_beginthreadex(NULL, 0, MySecondThread, the_this, 0, &the_lThread);
In MySecondThread() i will call one function, in which i have
SendMessage(MainWnd,WM_THREADREFRESH,TRUE);
But when the control enters Sendmessage,application hangs..
anyone pl help me to solve this.

From MSDN docs for SendMessage:
If the specified window was created by the calling thread, the window procedure is called immediately as a subroutine. If the specified window was created by a different thread, the system switches to that thread and calls the appropriate window procedure. Messages sent between threads are processed only when the receiving thread executes message retrieval code. The sending thread is blocked until the receiving thread processes the message.
It seems that thread which created MainWnd doesn't process its messages in message loop.

In other words, even with SendMessage, you still might need some type of message pump in the thread that created the window. Or at least some type of message retrieval code.

Let be explain me clearly.
My application is a exe,in that i call a dll function which has 2 threads as i referred before.In my application i have a while loop which gets & dispatchs the message.
2nd thread in the dll calls the one function in my application .when it calls that function i observed that it was not processing messages.
If i call that function form the 1st thread in dll,it just works fine.
could you pl help me..

Can you put the breakpoint in the WM_THREADREFRESH message handler? Is it actually reached when you SendMessage from 3rd thread?

If i replace SendMessage() by PostMessage().
My application didn't hang,But it didn't process that message.
Here is the sendmesage call:
SendMessage(hStatusWnd, MYWM_STATUS, TRUE, nStatus);
Thanks

That's because PostMessage returns immediately.
The message wasn't processed because PostMessage doesn't wait for that to happen.

Start with some value and increment it each time you're adding a control. If you have a mixed situation - your controls and controls created by some other code, you may use EnumChildWindows. For each HWND returned, check the id with GetWindowLong(hwnd, GWL_ID). Calculate max existing ID, add 1 and create control.

Yes, if parent window contains only children created by your code.

So you have to use EnumChildWindows/GetWindowLong to enumerate all existing children IDs. Calculate the max value, add 1, and use as start ID.

No, WM_USER is not about control IDs. It's about messages.

You want to do this 'manually' - to paste the icon into your own project? Or maybe you want your program to capture these icons?
