Strange. This should work.

// Make rich edit control read-only
VERIFY (myRichEditCtrl.SetReadOnly (TRUE));
ASSERT (myRichEditCtrl.GetStyle() & ES_READONLY);

Hi dear,
yes, sure setting it to read only works,
but then when you will move over control the cursor changes and and you can also select the text.
So it doesn't look like normal text.

Hi Katerina, what you are doing is right according to me. But, there is one more thing that you need to add. Override the PreTranslateMessage and enter the code given below:

BOOL CMyDialog::PreTranslateMessage(MSG *pMsg)
{
  // don't allow user to select the text in the control
  if (pMsg->message == WM_MOUSEMOVE && pMsg->wParam == MK_LBUTTON)
    return (TRUE);

  return (CMyDialog::PreTranslateMessage(pMsg));
}

Don't remove the read-only setting.

Hope this proves useful.

VC program compiled on XP Home does not run on XP Pro?!?!

Tony Westminster11-Apr-04 0:52

Hello,

I am experiencing a very strange "phenomenon":

When I compile a Visual C++ program in VS 2002
(no GUI, just console output) into
an exe on XP Home it runs smoothly. However,
when I give this to someone with an XP Pro
machine, it does not run but stops with an
exception error message box.
We have tested this on 3 different XPPro boxes now
and everywhere the same result.

When I compile the program with the same VS 2002
installed on a XPPro machine into an exe,
it runs BOTH on XPPro and XPHome.

I am really puzzled and have no clue why this happens.
Seems that in terms of OS at compilation time the exe's
are downward compatible but not upward.

Could anybody please help me and tell me what is going on?

Thank you so much in advance,
Tony

A lot depends on what the exception error is. Is this an MFC app or a pure Win32 app. Do you use the CommonControls dlls.

Thank you very much for your quick answer. I am not quite sure how
someone can tell if it is an MFC app or pure Win32 app? I assume
you see it if it contains MFC*.dll?

I used depends 2.1 to see which DLL's my App uses. I have attached below a list of all used DLLs. Note that Column1 and Column2 contain
the same list of dll's, I have just sorted Column2 by name to facilitate analysis.

Thank you so much for any help on this.

If I cannot find an answer on why this happens, do you think it is safe to say:

"Compiled exes will
always work on XP Home when compiled on XP Pro but not necessarily the
other way around."

If I knew this was true, I could always only compile the progs on XP Pro and be on the safe side.

Thanks again,
Tony

Absolutely not. It doesn't matter what OS you compile on. I could run VC 5 on Win 95, build a GUI app, and it would run on XP or 2K3 or whatever.
It would help if you posted the error message.

Mike,

thank you very much. I get an error message box that says:

properly (0xc0000135). Click on OK to terminate the application."

Do you have any idea what could cause this?

Hi,

Ithink it's problem about some Upgrades!!
Try this,

Upgrade WinXP (That your prog. didn't work on) with FrameWork1.1 avalable in microsoft site and run your prog again
I think it works good.

Please tell me if this solve your problem.

Yours Mamad,

Dear Mamad,

thanks so much for your answer.

I will try it out but doubt that it works.

Why? Because I think that Framework 1.1 you are talking
about is the .NET Framework. But I have coded in
pure VC++, not VC++.NET.

So I cannot really see how the framework would influence
my native code (no IL).

I will try it anyway.

Thanks again,
Tony

I exactly dont know, i searched the web for this answer as i new something like this exists...

I think PUT is part of HTTP 1/1 protocol spec, so the webserver should ideally support the command.

A simple method would be to have something similar to ping on the server but requiring your server code to provide the response.

Your best bet will be to use DirectInput which is part of the DirectX SDK. The SDK contains examples (including a comprehensive framework) for reading from Joysticks.

Hi,
I've found two mistakes in your code:

in the line:
box->AddString((char*)&BaudRateList[i].BaudRate);

make this change:
box->AddString(BaudRateList[i].BaudRate);

and

in the line:
sprintf(rate,"%d", BaudRateList[baudindex].BaudRate);

make this change:
sprintf(rate,"%s", BaudRateList[baudindex].BaudRate);

char rate;
baudindex = box->GetCurSel();
sprintf(rate,"%d",BaudRateList[baudindex].BaudRate);
return rate;

CString strRate;

strRate = "";

nBaudindex = box->GetCurSel();

if(nBaudindex > -1)
strRate.Format("%s", BaudRateList[baudindex].BaudRate);
