Is there any API or method to enumerate shared folders/drives on the Win2K/NT/XP machine?

   WNetOpenEnum(...)/WNetEnumResource(...)/WNetCloseEnum(...) may be easier if you only need the name of the shares available.

   Note that a share does not have a drive letter unless one is mapped (via NET USE) or subst (via subst) on the local machine - I believe a share server machine cannot dictate the drive letter a client will use to connect to it.

   Peace!

Hello,

If I have to provide CDatabase class with the connect string which gives me access to a database at the server or a PC then what should be my connect string (CString )?

What info about the PC on the internet should I have ex port address, IP address etc?

You can provide the connection information with either the CDatabase or the CRecordset object. A UNC path will be just fine.

Also, connect strings can vary by driver.

I think you have to configure the proper ODBC first. And then provide the information in CDatabase::Open() function

I'm using this structure while toggling my window between fullscreen and window modes. Now according to MSDN this is the definition:

typedef struct _WINDOWPLACEMENT {
    UINT length;
    UINT flags;
    UINT showCmd;
    POINT ptMinPosition;
    POINT ptMaxPosition;
    RECT rcNormalPosition;
} WINDOWPLACEMENT;

But my VS is showing an extra member RECT rcDevice. Great I thought, the monitors rect is given to me. But in winuser.h, this extra member is wrapped in a #ifdef _MAC #endif block. What does this mean exactly?

That's my guess, but I didn't realise VS was capable of compiling code for the mac. So I ask to be sure.

Having mac versions of a range of products doesn't necessarily mean that VS is able to build mac versions. Thats like saying VS builds will also run on linux ( with the exception of wine ).

VS isn't capable (to the best of my knowledge), but the header files are from the platform SDK, which is usable by other compilers. This way they keep a common source.

Dear All,
we are managing a very big ascii files that we should like to save in a DB as zipped file.
When user should like to know the content of the file I don't want to extract and save a local copy of the file, unzip and show to the user the content. What I want to do is to read the file and unzip it in the memory on the fly without saving it.
Does any one can help me ?

Thanks
