Ok, but I didn't call this function in my code, and the text appear selected blue when I show the text.

I don't want that the text appear selected

I use to show and get the text GetDlgItemText/SetDlgItemText

Could be this the problem?

Idea of Activation of software

Hello Friends

we are creating A desktop based application.And mine application is based on other 3rd application Engine or Enviorement which is having their own Activation code.

So,installation is like that first we will install 3rd application with their activation code.Now,i want to install mine application that will secure 3rd application activation also and also make sure that mine desktop application will be used only on one machine.

I want to secure 3rd application activation because If somehow I make secure mine application and then mine application gets corrupt or expire after trial then that 3rd application will remain on user system.So,I want to secure both through some user Input Activation code or through some other way.

Any Ideas??

Regards
Yogesh

What kind of activation code are you giving away with the 3rd party software, an "evalulation / trial license" or a "premanent license"?

You probably mean this and perhaps this too.

Hi all,

I have made a report style list control. In that list control i have made two columns.

What i want to do is when column 2 value changes to certain number then column 1 value should change into hyperlink.

how can i do this.

Thanks in advance

What event causes column 2 to change? You need to monitor or capture that, and make the changes to column 1 at the appropriate time. Without knowing more about your code it is difficult to be more specific.

both columns have been initialized with some values

when initial value of column 2 increases then column one value should become hyperlink.

Thanks.

Hi,

MSDN is your friend and you will be a much better software engineer if you learn to use it. The LCIDToLocaleName function[^] is available for Vista+ operating systems. The DownlevelLCIDToLocaleName function[^] is available for XP and below but unfortunately users will need to install the National Language Support (NLS) package.

You can avoid all of this by using the code I gave you here[^] which works on all operating systems >= WinXP. I've never tested it on Win2k.

Best Wishes,
-David Delaune

Howdy, you'll need the HWND of each dialog and the INT identifier of each control, or you'll need the HWND of each edit control.I'll assume the first.

C++

HWND editSrc, editDst;
char *szBuffer;
int stringLength;

editSrc = GetDlgItem(dlg1, IDC_EDITBOX1);
editDst = GetDlgItem(dlg2, IDC_EDITBOX2);

stringLength = GetWindowTextLength(editSrc);
szBuffer = new char[stringLength+1];
ZeroMemory(szBuffer, stringLength+1);
GetWindowText(editSrc, szBuffer, stringLength);

SetWindowText(editDst, szBuffer);
delete szBuffer;

Keep a public CString member variable in Child dialog class, set the member variable before calling the DoModal() or Create function of child dialog. Call SetWindowText of edit control in InitDialog.

for. eg

If CMainDlg is your Main dialog class and CChildDialog be the child.
in header of CChildDialog you declare a public member variable to hold the string

C++

class CChildDialog : public CDialog
{
 public :
 CString m_strText;
}

and in your button click function of CMainDlg do this

C++

void CMainDlg::OnClick_Button()
{
  
  CChildDialog oChildDlg; 
  oChildDlg.m_strText = strText; // This should be the edit box value
  oChildDlg.DoModal();
}

Set the variable value in CChildDialog's OnInitDialog as

C++

CChildDialog::OnInitDialog()
{
  SetDlgItemText(ID_OF_YOUR_EDIT, m_strText);
}

You can also set the text by modifying your constructor of CChildDialog, such as

C++

CChildDialog::CChildDialog(CString strText)

You could use GetDlgItemText()[^] and its counterpart SetDlgItemText().
