If you go scroll down you will have a link for WM_PAINT.
Or
You can set the filter to Platform SDK.

I'm aware of that. You can also select the various subjects that the word links to in the Dynamic Help window. But that's not as good as going straight to the help I want, which is what VC++ 6 did.
> You can set the filter to Platform SDK
The filters make absolutely no difference to the F1 help for me.
What version of Visual Studio are you using?
I've come across http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/f88ctah3.aspx[^].
If there's a more direct route to filtering the F1 help then I'd like to know about it, otherwise I'll have a go at that later.

Hi,
I need to write an application that converts a Borland Interbase Database to an Access/SQL Server database.
My question is - after I have the source and destination database paths, what steps does my application have to take in order to actually convert the data?
I am using Visual C++ 2003.
|
|
|
|
|
open, read the source with source database syntax then open, write to the destination with its own format.
i guess you wanna copy from one to another right? where do you "convert" something here?

By convert I meant that I have to take the data from the tables of the Interbase DB, and insert them into the correct fields and tables of the Access/SQL DB.
Yeah, I guess you could say that it's a copy and not a convert..
so like you said:
VuNic wrote: open, read the source with source database syntax then open, write to the destination with its own format.
but how I do all of this?
about connecting to the source db - I understand that I have to connect to the Interbase db through ODBC (after I have a driver for it), but how do I do this?
and what do I do after I have the connection? How do I transfer (copy) the data?
I'm really new to this subject, so all help would be appreciated...
Thanks

when you say , "select * from myTable" its gonna return all the recordsets in your table. so you have them in a recordset set object, i.e:
_recordset rec;
rec->GetRecordCount()
Now open the Target database....
In a loop, till the recordcount()is reached
{
1.read the record, (xyz database)
2.insert in the target table (acess)
3.MoveNext (xyzdataBase)
}
close(xyz)
close(access)
the data is moved

I wrote the following code:
CDatabase srcDb;
if (srcDb.Open(NULL))
{
m_sDbName = srcDb.GetConnect(); //m_sDbName is a variable of type CString
UpdateData(FALSE);
}
CRecordset rs(&srcDb);
CString strSQL;
strSQL = "SELECT * FROM table1";
rs.Open(CRecordset::snapshot, strSQL, CRecordset::readOnly);
rs.Close();
Everything works OK, (the database is connected), but when it gets to the row:
rs.Open(CRecordset::snapshot, strSQL, CRecordset::readOnly);
the application crashes, and I don't understand why...
Is this the right syntax for connecting to a database and retrieving data from a table? Could you maybe attach some source code, so I could compare?
Another question - after the row: rs.Open(CRecordset::snapshot, strSQL, CRecordset::readOnly); executes I should have the data from the table in the recordset object, right?

How do I layout components , to add new GUI componets , delete , re-position dynamically at runtime in MFC
|
|
|
|
|
First you create GUI components (usually derived from CWnd class) such as CButton by calling their Create() method. Then you can change their position using the SetWindowPos() method.

If you are using CString then use MakeUpper and if you are using char* string then use toupper function.

Hi all
can any one tell me how to retreive the parent of a child in a TreeStructure which is derived from CTreeCtrl in MFC
|
|
|
|
|
Use GetParentItem. It takes HTREEITEM type variable as only argument whoes parent is to be retrieved and return the parent as HTREEITEM if parent exists otherwise returns NULL.

Good evening,
I am building an application for distribution that will need to access information stored in tables (i.e. records, fields, etc...), and even perform calculations and table joins. All the data and functionality needs to be contained within the application since the application will be used by customers of my friends' businesses. In other words, any data managing and storing capability needs to be fully contained within the application.
My question is, what type of strategy should I use (ADO, DAO, ODBC, OLE DB, etc...)? Or do I have to implement a database type file system (i.e. using vectors, multimaps, deques, etc...) myself?
Thanks for your help.

Have a look at http://www.sqlite.org[^] for a decent embedded DB. I have only used it for small data sets but it came highly recommended.

Well in your win32 application there must be a call to to registerclass to register your main window.
That is how you register a class,
but if you are writting your own button, i would prefer to subclass the windowclass that windows has defined, that way you can also use the Dialog editor to design your UI.
Just my thoughts,
I have not done like this before but i think that should work.
check here[^] for system classes

Thank you once again for reply.
to register do we need windows class or we can use our own class (with does not have any member of windows)
thanks

you need to provide a new class name when you register.
