I am not looking to create, rather I am more looking for advice on something to buy.

I would like to be able to scan in paper forms and use a tool to convert the image into a form that C++ can use.

If such a tool does not exist, can you point me towards a tool that would build HTML or other interface from a paper form.

thanks

From my experience I can tell you I've found two ways to read data from excel files, one is by adding the excel assembly reference to your project and creating an instance of the Excel application object, I suppose this would be the only way to actually 'show' the Excel grid programmatically, beware though, that this requires excel to be installed in any client executing you app. The other way is to use Extended Properties of the OleDbDataAdapter which allows you to get a range of cells or an entire worksheet into a DataTable, thereafter you can manipulate the data, show it in a datagrid or do whatever you need with it.

I would have downloaded the sample for one of the toolbars, for example http://www.codeproject.com/docking/ctruecolortoolbar_update.asp[^]. Build the sample and singlestep - in this case it's the function LoadTrueColorToolBar that is interesting. Step into the MFC source, where you will see the underlying SDK calls. The main problem with MFC is not that it is complicated, rather that it is a far too thin wrapper of the SDK Smile | :)

From the view class, call the GetDocument() method.

How about CFrameWnd::SetActiveView()?

Use GetWindowText().

Windows Service

Hello,

I am currently writing a Windows Background Service and have run into some trouble.

So far things have been going well, but the only problem I have is that I need to set the state of the CAPS LOCK to on, which I am unable to achieve.

I have include winable.h and I am using the code:

::keybd_event( VK_CAPITAL, 0x45, KEYEVENTF_EXTENDEDKEY, 0 );
::keybd_event( VK_CAPITAL, 0x45, KEYEVENTF_EXTENDEDKEY | KEYEVENTF_KEYUP, 0 );

Which works in a regular console application, but I can't seem to get it to work in a windows service.

Is there some sort of security restriction that prevents me from changing the key state? Other then that, I have no idea.

Thanks in advance

Why do you need to alter the state of the CAPS LOCK key from within a service?

I do know that Windows Services run as the System user. When you create your service, are you giving it desktop privileges? Perhaps that's what's needed.

Check out the SERVICE_INTERACTIVE_PROCESS flag for the ::CreateService API on MSDN.

Note that chances are, the problem lies with the code that creates and registers your service, not the service itself.

Hi!
I’ve used the java-program “Together” to generate a picture of my programming project, but now my license is out. Anyone got a tip of a good free alternative? I’m using VS.NET and would be very happy if I have a solution there…
