The final release of the Visual C++ 2008 Feature Pack is now available for download. This release provides several exciting features for C++ developers, such as a major update to MFC and an implementation of TR1. These features are fully covered under Microsoft’s standard support policies.
The Feature Pack is available free of charge to any Visual Studio 2008 Standard or above customer. The download can be found at Visual C++ 2008 Feature Pack Release.
Using the included MFC components, you can create applications with the “look & feel” of Microsoft’s most popular products – Microsoft Office, Visual Studio and Internet Explorer. Some of the interesting MFC components in the Feature Pack include:
- Office 2007 Ribbon Bar: Ribbon, Pearl, Quick Access Toolbar, Status Bar, etc.
- Office 2003 and XP look: Office-style toolbars and menus, Outlook-style shortcut bar, print preview, live font picker, color picker, etc.
- Visual Studio look: sophisticated docking functionality, auto hide windows, property grids, MDI tabs, tab groups, etc.
- Internet Explorer look: Rebars and task panes Vista theme support
- “On the fly” menus and toolbar customization: users can customize the running application through live drag and drop of menu items and toolbar buttons
- Shell management classes: use these classes to enumerate folders, drives and items, browse for folders and more
For more information on the new MFC support:
TR1 (“Technical Report 1”) is a set of proposed additions to the C++0x standard. Our implementation of TR1 contains a number of important features such as smart pointers, regular expression parsing, containers (tuple, array, unordered set, etc) and sophisticated random number generators.
More information on TR1 can be found at the sites below:

Hello to everyone,
I've written an application in VC++ 6 using MFC to connect to a database (access db). The application simply read and write data to the mdb file through CRecordset and ODBC drivers. The program works fine on XP (and also on 98) but it does not work in Vista. It seems like the program does not find the mdb.I receive an error as: .... odbc acces driver... c:\programma\database.mdb ..path is not valid. The path exists and the db is there but i still receive the error. may be something abiout permissions, UAC ecc...?
Can someone help me?
Thank you very much.

I think you need to check your CRecordsetDerived::GetDefaultConnection() to see if you define an appropriate Connection String.
You shouldn't leave the default Connection String after AppWizard!

Hello,
In my application, I am creating a process in debug mode. I am wondering if there is any way I can detect if the process I created had generated any unhandled exception...
Thanks...

You can subclass the edit control and look for the enter key press. When the enter key is pressed you can post
a message to another window to do the processing of the edit control contents.
See method II here: How To Use the ENTER Key from Edit Controls in a Dialog Box[^]
Also, a Google search on "enter key edit control" yields much info.

Subclassing a control is the same for a window as it is for a dialog.
You must have an HWND for the edit control if you put it there 
Subclassing Controls[^]
If you're using MFC it's much simpler.

In that case...
Derive a class from CEdit
Create the edit control using your derived class
In the derived class, add a handler for WM_CHAR
In the WM_CHAR handler, look for the enter key (as shown in the first link I posted)
If the enter key was pressed - do whatever you need to do
For all other keys, pass the message on to the edit control (call Default();)

Ok,
i'put this code in the newToolBar.cpp:
BOOL New_cToolBar::PreTranslateMessage(MSG* pMsg)<br />
{<br />
if (pMsg->message==WM_KEYDOWN && pMsg->wParam == VK_RETURN )<br />
{<br />
if (pMsg->message==WM_KEYDOWN && pMsg->wParam == VK_RETURN )<br />
{<br />
<br />
if ( ID_nEDIT )<br />
{<br />
MessageBox( _T("Got it!") );<br />
}<br />
}<br />
}<br />
return New_cToolBar::PreTranslateMessage( pMsg );<br />
}<br />
but int won't work ???
best regards Croc

That won't work because the message goes to the edit control, not to the toolbar

Many thx Mr. Salsbery,
this will work, but only in a seperate project!
Now i try to put your code in my code with the edit in the toolbar !
Where and how have i to implement it ???
I never did anything in the MFC that was as complicated like this !
Many Thanx
Croc

You can't add another class to your project? 
How did you get the edit control on the toolbar (the code)?

??? Shur i can add classes but i'm .... !
I don't know where i have to implement your code and i don't know how to do it !
I tried it too long i think ! 
This is the declaration of the membervariable of my edit in NewToolBar.h :
public:<br />
CEdit m_Ctrl_EDIT;<br />
In NewToolBar.cpp:
BOOL NewToolBar::LoadToolBarEx(UINT id)<br />
{<br />
BOOL bReturn;<br />
<br />
bReturn = CToolBar::LoadToolBar(id);
int iPosition = CommandToIndex(ID_nEDIT);<br />
SetButtonInfo(iPosition,ID_nEDIT,TBBS_SEPARATOR,EDITLEN);<br />
<br />
CRect rect;<br />
<br />
GetItemRect(iPosition, rect);<br />
<br />
rect.bottom = 20;<br />
<br />
DWORD dwStyle = WS_CHILD|WS_VISIBLE|WS_TABSTOP|ES_AUTOHSCROLL;<br />
m_Ctrl_EDIT.CreateEx(WS_EX_CLIENTEDGE,_T("EDIT"),NULL, dwStyle, rect, this, ID_nEDIT); <br />
<br />
<br />
return bReturn;<br />
}<br />
i use the menber !!!
i don't know how to implement code into mine, this is the prob !
Could you perhaps show it on my sample i posted, i know it's not the general way, im not to lazy, it simply won'work  
Thanx a lot
Best regards

Change that line to
CMyEdit m_Ctrl_EDIT;
I gave you code that can be separated into a .h and a .cpp file.
Do that, and add the files to your project.
Add the following line above the NewToolBar class decalration:
#include "MyEdit.h"
That's it!

I could, but you wouldn't learn anything. You should (IMO) be able to easily add classes to your projects.
You'll be happier in the long run I bet

If you put a breakpoint in OnChar() and run it in the debugger, is it ever hit when you type in the control?
If not, put a breakpoint in the CMyEdit constructor. Is that ever hit? If not then you didn't use a CMyEdit
instead of a CEdit.
I'd look at your code if it was in a ZIP - I have no unrar utility.
