Hello.

Could you please to suggest which grid-control must I use to obtain a table looking like the Windows Explorer (in WinXP) in table mode?

Thank You.

In table mode?
Can you give us an example of this?
Or do you mean Windows explorer in detailed mode using the List Control?

Yes. I mean it. In Russian it named something like "table view".

OK. Then you are looking for the CListCtrl[^] class (in MFC) that encapsulate the windows List View Control.

Let somebody has the next .ini file:
1 Parent1
+--11 Child 1
 +---111 Child 11
 +---112 Child 112
 +---...
+--12 Child 2
 +---121 ...
 +---122 ...
 +---...
2 Parent 2
+--21 Child 1
 +---211 Child 11
 +---212 Child 112
 +---...
and so on.
Actually, it is very often useful to organize tree in this way.
So, is anybody know how to build CTreeCtrl (CTreeView) referencing to this file.
Thanks in advance,
bilas (Aleksey).

I'm am implementing the code in this example, http://www.codeproject.com/system/registry.asp[^] and when I #include afx.h to use CString, I get this error:

fatal error C1189: #error : WINDOWS.H already included. MFC apps must
> not #include <windows.h>

If I take out the include, the CString type is not defined. Any help?

With MFC, there is no need to explicitly include windows.h as it is automatically done.

Creating a simple border on a dialog

BrianBoru4-Feb-05 2:32

4-Feb-05 2:32

I am fairly new to MFC and am unable to locate a feature for creating a border or frame in the control toolbar for a Dialog. I have seen that there is a RECT struct and CRect class to draw rectangles is this really necessary for such a simple graphical feature?

David Crow4-Feb-05 3:18

Are you wanting a border around the dialog itself or around a control on the dialog?

I'm looking to create borders around the different controls on the dialog, therefore will create a few of them in the dialog space.

David Crow4-Feb-05 3:26

4-Feb-05 3:26

What controls, specifically? Some of them have borders by default.

I'm trying to create borders around different sets of controls, e.g. first one around a listbox, second around an editbox and 2 radio buttons, etc so I guess the border will have to be independant of the control(s) it borders...

David Crow4-Feb-05 3:39

4-Feb-05 3:39

By chance are you thinking of a "group" control (i.e., Button control with the BS_GROUPBOX style)? Do you have an example that I could look at?

( from code or from the resources ?

What about a simple Group Box ( a CStatic )?

CRect and RECT are not used to DRAW rectangles... they simply hold coordinates.

Looks like I can create it with the Static text and applying the border style - doh!
Thanks for your help Max and David.
