hi,
It worked for me also ,but it works only when the "Volume Control" window is opened and then you execute the code snippet.What should happen is that even when the "Volume Control" window is closed and then you excute the code snippet,it should work.

Of course. What else would you expect? The Mute all checkbox does not exist otherwise.

Lots of luck to you. It's impossible to manipulate a window/control that does not exist.

Why would you even consider doing this? Do you not think that the user would be somewhat annoyed that they could not change the volume on their computer? How friendly would that be?

Just because it is a requirement does not make it a good idea. Please explain what you are doing and maybe we could could come up with an alternative solution that is more practical.

I just made eight posts to this thread. Don't you think I would have helped if I could? Do you think that I am purposely withholding information?

hi,

In our project there is an option to Control the Volume of audio of the system,so when the user does control the volume through our software,he should not be allowed to go and change the volume through the system.

CListBox columns

I've got a list of information which I currently display in a CListBox and at present I 'manually' format the data by inserting extra spaces, i.e.
Adam - 260 - 11
Bill - 260 - 2
Caroline - 90 - 6

is there an easy way to get column support into a CListBox or should I be using a different control to display my data?

TIA

Hi,

Why don't you use the CListCtrl instead of the CListBox?

Partly from http://www.codeproject.com/dialog/dlgboxtricks.asp[^]

If you want to do this at design time, all you need to do is to set the properties accordingly. But if for some reason you need to do this at run-time then this is what you need to do. Override OnCreate() and add this code to it.

SetWindowLong(this->m_hWnd,GWL_STYLE,
   GetWindowLong(this->m_hWnd,GWL_STYLE) &
         ~(WS_MINIMIZEBOX | WS_MAXIMIZEBOX));

Hi to all,
Can somebody tell me the difference between exe and dll?
Thank You

Re: problem

an exe have a main() (or WinMain()) function as an entry point, so that when the OS launches it, it knows where to start executing the code.
a dll is a library. it provides a set of functions, classes, resources, but can't be directly executed.
