Hola !

HE he, si creo que si nos ponemos a hablar en Español igual Nish o otro se cabrean Smile | :)

, así que aquí va mi inglés potajero... Wink | ;-)

Yes, the thing is that I have a system made to update data automatically when you press tab or whatever

http://www.codeproject.com/dialog/killfocus.asp

It saved me a lot of boring work, ... but... If I use that on a Non modal Property Page I got a problem... when you press tab on the last control the focus goes to the parent and I cannot distinguish very well the event that happened, the good thing would be that it goes again to the first tab order control again.

Is there some possibility to do that ?

Gracias Joaquin !

I must confess I've not completely caught your point, so I will guess anyway Smile | :)

So your problem is that your property page loses control when the user press on the tab (control is taken over by the property sheet) and you'd like the property page to have an opportunity to retain control? If so, today some folks have had a similar discussion here, and seems like WM_NCACTIVATE is the message you should handle on your propery pages to determine when control goes elsewhere.

Hope it helps. Don't mind asking again if this is not what you were after.

Thanks !,

I´m gonna try the OnActive thing, but I would like to do it generic, do you know anyway to get the first control that have a tab stop ? ( just a function named like... "FirstTabOrderCtrl()" or something like that Smile | :)

Thanks again, Bye !

You know what? Seems like calling SetFocus on the property page itself yields control to its first control (with respect to tab order). At least I've just tried it with a CDialog and it works.

Thanks good tip !

The only problem is that OnActive is not called when the user presses the tab because it already has the focus ( crazy stuff... ).

Hasta luego Joaquin !, me rindo por hoy mañana me pondré de nuevo, con la cabeza más fresca Smile | :)

1. Make sure the class is only defined in one place (header file).
2. Make sure the contents of the header file are only included once. Use guard macros to prevent that:

#ifndef __STOCK_H__
#define __STOCK_H__
 
class Stock
{
...
};
 
#endif // __STOCK_H__

You can't call C++ code from C the way you're trying it. CLoginDlg is a class which C does not recognize.

What you can do is wrap that code inside a global "C"-style function inside your C++ file:

extern "C" void OpenLoginDlg()
{
   CLoginDlg dlg;
   dlg.DoModal();
}

Then you can call OpenLoginDlg in your C code.

Do not panic Smile | :)

Try this:

close all open files in your Visual Studio, delete your .c files from the project, go to the Windows Explorer, locate those files, change the extension to .cpp and add them back to the project. Now, hopefully, your formerly C modules are C++.
whenever you get some "undeclared identifier" compiler error, try to locate the .h header file for the class you're trying to use and insert the corresponding #include.

With a little luck, this will help you advance a little further.

hi all;

When you add new menu item to SDI/MDI MFC application it is disabled in run-time untill you write message handler for this item.

Joaquín M López Muñoz31-Jan-02 4:01

Maybe it has to do with command update handlers. Have you ON_COMMAND_UPDATE_UI handlers for the new commands in the additional menu bar? (I'm asuming you already have ON_COMMAND handlers for them)

Also you might find interesting to have a look at the flag

<a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/vcmfc98/html/_mfc_cframewnd.3a3a.m_bautomenuenable.asp">CFrameWnd::m_bAutoMenuEnable</a>

, which gives you control over this kind of things.

Re: menu bar

If I'm understanding your question, you should write something like this on your command handler:

CYourDialog dlg;
dlg.DoModal();

mmmh... What is that login? It is a CDialog class, right? Then in your project you'll see a .cpp and a .h (possibly login.h) files associated with the class. Include this line at the beggining of the file where the error is:

#include "login.h" // or whatever the header file for the class is named

You know, this is pretty basic C/C++ stuff. Maybe you should spend some time reading some C/C++ primer to get the fundamentals learnt. Do a search on Internet, there must be plenty of tutorials.
