Check out KB article Q207931[^] which has some sample code.

My really out-of-date homepage Sonork-100.19012 Acid_Helm Size of 'enum' Ryan B.1-Oct-02 7:48 Ryan B. 1-Oct-02 7:48  I know that the size of enum in VC++ is by default "integral". So the following structure is 4 bytes (or sizeof(int)). I also know that the size will scale based upon the value of said enumeration. However, I need my enum to be 'short' in order to read some binary data into a much larger structure that contains many of these enums? How can I cahnge the size? typedef enum _ALARM_TYPE { LATCHING = 0, SELF_CLEARING } ALARM_TYPE; Ryan Baillargeon Software Specialist Fuel Cell Technologies Inc.

Re: Size of 'enum' Ryan B.1-Oct-02 7:56 Ryan B. 1-Oct-02 7:56  nope, I was wrong.. still looking that was under AIX Ryan Baillargeon Software Specialist Fuel Cell Technologies Inc. Re: Size of 'enum' Ryan B.1-Oct-02 8:30 Ryan B. 1-Oct-02 8:30  for everyones benefit I am going to post that I have found you cannot change the size of enum under VC++. In some other environments you can. Ryan Baillargeon Software Specialist Fuel Cell Technologies Inc. Re: Size of 'enum' Anonymous2-Oct-02 3:29 Anonymous 2-Oct-02 3:29  Can you do the conversion yourself? By that I mean, if you want the enum to fit into a short then convert it to a short and read/write that. You may need to do some funky casting and/or memcpy'ing, but the effects will be the same and will work on other compilers too How do i set a Radio Button's state in with win32 api's?

Going around in circles.... plus it looks like I need to know HTML - I dont. Any suggestions on the easiest way to write help docs? I do want the tabbed sort of help file window to pop up with Index, Contents etc (like you get with the MSDN). Help! Appreciate your help, ns Re: writing help docs Ravi Bhavnani1-Oct-02 7:13 Ravi Bhavnani 1-Oct-02 7:13  You only need to know a handful of tags to write most of your documentation. Imho, a great book on HTML Help is this one[^]. /ravi Let's put "civil" back in "civilization" http://www.ravib.com ravib@ravib.com Re: writing help docs ns1-Oct-02 7:33 ns 1-Oct-02 7:33  The TOC mentions win 3.1 and win95 an awful lot - no whisper of win98 or win2K. DO you think its up to date? Have you used it? Has the workshop not changed since the book was written? I dont know if you can answer these questions...but before I order it get as much info as I can... Appreciate your help, ns Re: writing help docs Ravi Bhavnani1-Oct-02 7:38 Ravi Bhavnani 1-Oct-02 7:38  Works great for Win2K!

Now I know who to bother when I (eventually) get started on the process. Thanks a million for the link to the book. I 'lll just buy it and not wait for official channels to order it.....I feel more confident now knowing that soon the mists of the concept will be lifted (I hope!)

Aaron Schaefer1-Oct-02 7:06 Aaron Schaefer 1-Oct-02 7:06  Hi, I need to know how to specify the system color used in a GRAY_BRUSH as an RGB macro. In other words, if I have something like RGB(r, g, b) Then what values should r, g, and b equal to match LTGRAY_BRUSH, GRAY_BRUSH, etc. Are there some defined constants for gray, light gray, etc? Thanks, Aaron Re: What color is gray? Ravi Bhavnani1-Oct-02 7:11 Ravi Bhavnani 1-Oct-02 7:11  In terms of RGB, lt gray is (192, 192, 192), medium gray is (128, 128, 128) and dark grey is (64, 64, 64). Not sure if this information actually helps you. /ravi Let's put "civil" back in "civilization" http://www.ravib.com ravib@ravib.com Re: What color is gray?

Chad Koehler1-Oct-02 7:26 Chad Koehler 1-Oct-02 7:26  You can user the GetSystemColor() function to get any of the Windows system colors. You can use GetRValue() GetGValue() and GetBValue() to get the actual values (that you may or may not still need). Re: What color is gray?

How can I manage to execute an application in a administrator mode Alex Gomara1-Oct-02 6:40 Alex Gomara 1-Oct-02 6:40  I've seen it but I don't know how to programm it in my application. I mean, if the application has to be executed by a inexperienced user then he has to execute, for instance, "application.exe", but if I have to do some kind of administration (for example change an IP address) executed like "application.exe -admin" that shows me up a different dialog. How can I programm this two different rutines?? Thaks
