thanks for your reply,,
I like to know,if this is a way of only copying data from an open document to another,
or having access to the open document's data,, or both??
In my application i need to have access to the data too.
another question:
Does this mean that I have to use serialization method in my application?
thanks

If you have the pointer to the document, then you have access to the data ( or at least get methods ). You can use GetActiveDocument() to get a pointer to the current active document, use the code I gave you before to get access to another document, and then copy between them.

I know that the Submit and Preview buttons don't look the same but I still managed to hit the wrong one. Will try again with the question.
OK, I am still working on my ground breaking Dialog based database application. Answers to my previous questions have allowed me to get things working the way I wanted but as always I have found another annoyance I can't work around.
In the summary screen for say Customers I fill the ListCtrl with data returned by a
SELECT *
FROM
CUSTOMERS
of course this means that the first column contains the Primary Key which I don't need the user to see. I could select each column except the Primary Key individually to fix this but this leads me to another problem. When a user selects a row to Delete a Customer I use the value in the first column as the key to delete the correct record.
So what I want is to Hide the first column containing the key so the user can't see it but still have it returned by GetItemText when I need the key to Delete or Update.
Can this be done?
Can some kind developer give me the function?

Are the customer names unique ? If so, you could build a map to hold the key. Maps rule.

You can do this by the clistctrl function - setitemdata();
instead of insertcolumn
example:
m_lst.setitemdata(0,/*the unique customer id*/);
|

|
|

You can always set the Primary Key column's width to 0, thereby making it hidden.
LVCOLUMN lvColumn;
memset(&lvColumn, 0, sizeof(lvColumn));
lvColumn.mask = LVCF_WIDTH;
listCtrl.GetColumn(0, &lvColumn);
lvColumn.cx = 0;
listCtrl.SetColumn(0, &lvColumn);

Ignore this question due to blatant stupidity I stuffed up and hit the wrong button. Question reposted above.

Hi,
I'm converting some old vb code to a VC++ application and there is this function called ScaleX which converts a coordinate from twips to pixels. Is there any equivalent function in VC++?
Thanks for any help you can provide,
Craig

You can do this using two different methods:
1) set the mapping mode of device context to MM_TWIPS, then call DPtoLP.
2) perform calculations 'manually' using value returned from GetDeviceCaps(hdc, LOGPIXELSX) - it's a number of pixels per 'logical inch'.
int logpixx = GetDeviceCaps(hdc, LOGPIXELSX);
int pix = logpixx * twips / 1440;

Hello,
Is it possible to get a process's PID if the name of the application is known? Is there a function such as "GetProcessIdByName", or is there some alternative hack? BTW, I am developing with Visual Studio 6 for Windows NT/2000, and using the July 2000 Platform SDK.
Thanks for any help,
Jon Sagara

I need to open a file from one function then manipulate it in another. How do I pass the stream to the second function.
I am using the fstream header file for I/O..
|
|
|
|
|
Try passing the stream object by reference.

I thought that was all I had to do. I must be doing something wrong with syntax or something... Here's the jist of what I am doing....
#include <fstream.h>
void ReadFile(ifstream &stream);
int main()
{
ifstream in;
in.open(FileName);
ReadFile(in);
}
ReadFile(ifstream &stream)
{
}
I get compiler errors n'stuff. I'm not passing the stream object correctly I believe...

I think you problem is that;
a) you need to include both <iostream> and <fstream>
b) you need to bring the classes declared in the std namespace into scope.
I re-wrote it to do all of this;
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
using namespace std;
void ReadFile ( ifstream & stream );
int main () {
ifstream fin;
fin.open ( theFileName );
ReadFile ( fin );
}
void ReadFile ( ifstream & stream ) {
}
That should do it for you.

Hi, I am a new to C++ MFC design so thanks in advance for the inputs.
I am wondering if anyone can tell me where is the best place to put the SetRange(int, int) command for a spinner inside a modeless propertyPage. I understand the usual place is in OnInitDlg. However, I don't think there is a similar OnInit function for my property page/sheet.
Thanks!

OnInitDialog is OK, assuming that range remains the same during the lifetime of your object.

Yes, I would put SetRange in OnInitDialog too in a heart beat, but CPropertySheet class does not have the OnInitDialog function for me to inherit like in CDialog... so I'm lost for ways there.
|
|
|
|
|
Just use this:
BOOL CYourPage::OnInitDialog()
{
CPropertyPage::OnInitDialog();
return TRUE;
}
Tomasz Sowinski -- http://www.shooltz.com.pl

Hmm.. there is no OnInitDialog() fcn in CPropertyPage or any of its parents. This exactly what I am stuck on. I know I can initialize my SetRange in OnInitDialog if I had a dialog, but I don't I have a CPropertyPage.
btw, the tree for these classes is:
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .-> CDialog . . . . . .
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . / . . . . . . . . . . .
CObject -> CCmdTarget -> CWnd -<. . . . . . . . . . . .
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . \ . . . . . . . . . . .
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .-> CPropertySheet. . .
So there's no OnInitDialog for CPropertySheet.
|
|
|
|
|
CPropertyPage derives from CDialog - your tree is not based on facts  . If you insert CPropertySheet::OnInitDialog() into CYourPage::OnInitDialog, the CDialog::OnInitDialog will be called.
Anyway, if you don't want to use OnInitDialog, use OnSetActive or DoDataExchange instead.

Ah, yes you are correct! I was looking into the wrong place -- the CPropertySheet, instead of CPropertyPage. Thanks! My spinner works like a charm now

I intend to add a CEdit box to the main window (a drawing program which is NOT Dialog based) so I can always show the x,y coordinates in that box. I've added such a variable to the View class and created it in the constructor, but it does not appear in the main window, how can I make it display?
