Thanks!
My fault, I meant "not written in MFC".
Could you give me a link or tutorial that explains how to use the STL? I never used it before

There some articles here
http://www.codeproject.com/vcpp/stl/
It is not very difficult to use STL. It has look nearly as MFC Classes such as CArray

CArray was written as a substitute for vector while waiting for the C++ standard. Here is a link to the first of my STL articles, which covers vector. You'll find the STL is far superior to CArray.

Well, I typed it in, so I guess so. It probably got typed in wrong, so it's in the page but has not translated to a link.

Does anyone know how (if it is possible) to change the client rectangle of a common control (ListBox, EditBox ... etc)? The reason I ask is because I created a skinable scrollbar class and want to add it into the non-client area of an edit box or list box. My thinking is that if I could shrink the client area I could create my new scrollbar window in the non-client space, which would not be painted over.
Any help would be greatly appreciated

handle the WM_NCCALCSIZE message. Have a look at my article at http://www.codeproject.com/editctrl/fileeditctrl.asp where I used this method to embed a button in an edit control.

I am trying to create a borderless window that will just be display text of statis and will close by itself if statis is positive. The window will only display buttons to handle error and will have another chance to close app. And no taskbar button.
I have VS.NET but using VC++ 6.0 code(Win32API only). I have tried calling CreateWindow() with many different window styles but some work but not like I wanted and others build stops at the end of building and doesn't switch over to debug mode.
Note: if the backgroud was white and I was to run it windows should only paint white over the current screen.
Any help.

Omit the border styles (WS_BORDER, WS_THICKFRAME, etc.) and add the extended style WS_EX_TOOLWINDOW.

Thank for reply...
Your reply help up to here...
I changed the style param for CreateWindow() to 0.
I added SetWindowLong(...,GWL_STYLE, 0);
and SetWindowLong(...,GWL_EXSTYLE, 0);
All that has change is I can drag window, curved ends XP titlebar and all borders are gone are gone(or transparent). The only thing is left is the titlebar is still painted and when Debuging and VS.NET is maximized and program is below it
Two thing I can do...
1) I DbClick VS.NET caption and some of my program show but VS.NET UI is not erase from non-client area.
2) I click my program taskbar button and only the client area of appears on top(non-client area seems transparent). This is what I wanted along.
Also I still cant get rid of that taskbar button.
Any more help...
Thanks...

Would it be easier to create a hidden parent window and just have the child borderless window display.

Use ModifyStyle(..)
Or ModifyStyleEx(..) to change the window style.

I'm trying to post a meesage from one class to another, passing a CString value with the message. Currrently, I casting the CString into a LPARAM and passing that. Then in the function that receives the meesage, I'm casting the LPARAM into an LPCTSTR/CString.
The LPARAM value is passed across correctly, but when I recast back to the LPCTSTR, the data is garbage.
Any ideas on what I'm doing wrong?
// posting function
CString myStr = _T("some data");
LPARAM lParam = (LPARAM)myStr;
::PostMessage(HWND_BROADCAST, WMU_MY_MSG, 0, lParam);
// receiving function
LPCTSTR lp = (LPCTSTR)lParam;
lp holds garbage data.
Thanks!

Is the class that you are sending the CString to in a different process? Memory is not valid across process boundaries, you will need to allocate memory using the GlobalAlloc function, then copy the data from the CString into your new buffer.
If this is not the case, could you give more details as to why you are using HWND_BROADCAST.
Good Luck

Not in a different process, as far as i know.
Using HWND_BROADCAST because...uhh.... why AM i using it? I'm not sure, i think it's because it worked when i was playing around with different values.
I'll try the GlobalAlloc anyways.
Thanks!

I just noticed something that I think is your problem. You are creating a CString on the stack inside of a function, then you are posting a message. The function call that all of this is happening in will exit before the posted message gets handled. When the function call exits, it destroys all of the variables that were created on the stack for that function.
There are three ways to solve this:
1) Make your CString a global variable.
2) Dynamically allocate the CString class, and delete it at a later time (this could get messy though, deciding who should actually delete the string, it should not be deleted until the posted message is handled.
3) Use SendMessage instead of PostMessage. SendMessage happens instantly, and does not return until the message is handled by your target window.
Good Luck

Heh, yeah, silly me. I noticed the same error, then smacked myself on the head a few times because it's so simple, yet i couldn't get it to work. Yeah, i think i need more sleep
Thanks for all your help too.

You got it! The CString object must be created on the heap and deleted by the other thread that receives the message in the message handler. Read
Using Worker Threads. It describes this mechanism in detail.

By the way, HWND_BROADCAST is OK to use, but it will send this message to every top level window currently on the system. Therefore it may cause problems if the user is running more than one instance of your application and the second instance tries to handle this message. Also it will use more processing power each time this message is used. Maybe not enough to matter though.
It would be better for you to see if there is a way to get a handle to the window that you are interested in receiving the message.

When i wasn't using HWND_BROADCAST, then the receiving function never receiving the message. I'm sure using HWND_BROADCAST is overkill, but it's the only way i could find (right now) to make sure the receiving function gets the message, especially since the sender function doesn't have the handle to the window that receives the message.
