So far i have this, ScrollWindowEx(0, rt.bottom, &rt, &rt, NULL, &rt, SW_ERASE | SW_INVALIDATE); Perhaps I'm misinterpreting the parameters. Anyone have some familiarity with this method? Thanks!

I have to write a bilingual app, and I have to rely on the locale, not only the language (for money, date displays). tx Michel It is a lovely language, but it takes a very long time to say anything in it, because we do not say anything in it, unless it is worth taking a very long time to say, and to listen to. - TreeBeard Re: Internationalization .dan.g.2-Sep-02 13:59 .dan.g. 2-Sep-02 13:59  try looking up GetCurrencyFormat() on msdn and this will point you to all the other locale related API functions.

When a file is opened, the data goes to the RichEditCtrl. On the OnInitalUpdate I do the following. SendMessage(WM_SETREDRAW,(WPARAM)FALSE,0); ExamineJournalFile(); SendMessage(WM_SETREDRAW,(WPARAM)TRUE,0); Invalidate(TRUE); The ExamineJournalFile() basically does searches on the text in the control and does some cleanup and highlighting. However, it does this for 10 different keywords, and then places the file location of those keywords into a treeview in a splitter window. Functionally, everything is fine. My issue is with the speed on large files. I have just begun to play with threading the finds, but I am not sure if that is the safest or the best way. Anyone encoutered this, or have a better suggestion? Thanks Re: Slow Finds Joaquín M López Muñoz2-Sep-02 12:03 Joaquín M López Muñoz 2-Sep-02 12:03  What search routine are you using? I think this can make much of a difference. Fast search routines are based on the so-called Boyer-Moore algorithm (do a search on the net for info and implementations). Joaquín M López Muñoz Telefónica, Investigación y Desarrollo Re: Slow Finds Wade H.2-Sep-02 13:04 Wade H. 2-Sep-02 13:04  Curently I am using the FindTextSimple() function of the CRichEditView class for the searching because I also need the position (but I guess as long as I know its a position, the row&col can be calculated). Re: Slow Finds Christian Graus2-Sep-02 12:04 Christian Graus 2-Sep-02 12:04  I presume you're traversing the list 10 times ? Why not provide a vector & as an arguement to ExamineJournalFile and search for all 10 at the same time ? Threading is also probably a good idea if you want your UI to be responsive while this occurs. The other option is to put your data into a set as you read it, because then searches will be a whole lot faster. vector and set are part of the STL, if you don't know. Plenty of articles on CP if you need to know more, I've written several. Christian We're just observing the seasonal migration from VB to VC.

I will look at putting the data into a set on the reading of the data. During the serilizing of the archive? Is the set still going to be faster than on a CString::Find()? I would think that ultimately, thats all the CRichEditView::FindTextSimple() does. Anyway, thanks for the ideas.

The ldb file is used by Access to control multi-user db access, locking etc. so it is vitally important that the file is closely linked to the opened database. You might not have control over the where abouts of this location. Its purpose is not a 'regular' temporary file and as such is not placed in the usual temp location. If anyone knows otherwise, let me know. Richard Chin Re: Access database and temprory file (*.LDB) Joel Lucsy4-Sep-02 4:51 Joel Lucsy 4-Sep-02 4:51  You are absolutely correct. MS even published exactly how the ldb works. It MUST reside where the mdb is. No choice. In code it is possible to open a mdb read-only and exclusive which basically tells it not to use the ldb. This is useful when opening a mdb on a cdrom for static data. This is the only time this kind of thing should be done. Joel Lucsy (jjlucsy@ameritech.net) Changing staticbox background ...

Win98 MFC Compatibility Problems Jammer2-Sep-02 9:21 Jammer 2-Sep-02 9:21  "Things that don't work on my system (Win 98) all relate to the date based patches (WFP is my only date based patch). - When I set the date, the messages indicate that the date based files have been copied into SIMPATCH, but they actually haven't been. Eg. When I set the date the 161001, I assume that all the files in the 13 WFPdate folders from 150801 to 161001 should be copied into DATA/SIMPATCH, but by checking in the SIMPATCH folder I can see that non of these date based files are there. - The 'date:browse' button still doesn't seem to work. When clicked, nothing happens. Funny because the other browse button (for the .exe) works fine. I have to enter date manually. - The 'modify campaign' button doesn't seem work for me either. When clicked, the date dialog box just disappears." What he's talking about has to do with an MFC application, RBPatch, which I have been working on. The issues he's having are related to a CFileDialog object, and some CopyFile + FindXFile operations. People running WinXP or WinME have absolutely no issues, but there have been some people running 98 and 95 OSR2 having the exact same issues. Any ideas?
