hello everyone,
i have a char pszFile[MAX_INT]; variable that is supposed to be used with GetOpenFileName() and GetSaveFileName() functions.
i also havo a CString class member that contains the path of the stored file.
what i would like should be to be able to put the content of the CString into the char* variable...
::strcpy(pszFile, m_strDBFilePath); <font color=green>
i also tried with _tcscpy() function but it doesn't work as pszFile is not defined as a wchar_t*...
As i don't know really where to look for this, i'd be grateful for your help...
thanks,

CString is UNICODE aware. Thus the CString is in wide_char format internally. So either will have to WideCharToMultiByte and use strcpy() or pszFile to MultiByteToWideChar and use wstrcpy().
The suggested way is to use TCHAR to define pszFile and _tcscpy().

with strcpy(), i get the following error :
D:\FactEditor v2.10b\FactEditor\FactEditorDlg.cpp(1839): error C2664: 'strcpy' :
Cannot convert parameter 2 from 'CString' into 'const char *'

instead of strcpy can use this:
::WideCharToMultiByte(CP_ACP,
0,
m_strDBFilePath,
-1,
pszFile,
BUFF_SIZE,
NULL,
NULL);

you could insert something like:
#if defined (UNICODE) || defined (_UNICODE)<br />
#define _tcstombs wcstombs<br />
#else<br />
#define _tcstombs strncpy<br />
#endif<br />
then to convert CString in UNICODE or non Unicode environment to char* you can use the function
_tcstombs
It has 3 params, 1st param is the target char* 2nd param is the TCHAR string, and 3rd param the size of string to copy....
_tcstombs(pszFile, m_strDBFilePath, m_strDBFilePath.GetLength()); <br />
Hope this helps you along

_tcstombs() seems not to be regognized by MSDN 
are you sure it's the right name ?

well it`s not an MSDN statement.
you need to insert that
#if defined (UNICODE)... stuff that I mentioned in the above mail,
it will translate the _tcstombs statement into strncpy if not compiling in a UNICODE environment, and it will translate it into a wcstombs statement when compiling in a UNICODE environment.

oh sorry, i didn't look well at the begining of your previous post.

Hi all,
We are generating MultiLanguage reports with wide char encoding for printing from our application. We need to achieve Multilanguage printing of these reports, please help us how to achieve the same.
We are getting junk printed when we try to print the Multilanguage characters using WritePrinter() API. Is there any API which does the job of printing Multilanguage.
As of now we are using WritePrinter( ) function and able to print English Data where we also send some control characters to the printer to print the data in the desired format.
Please do the needful.
Regards
Hari

hello..im currently working on my project. but i can't move on to the next step because i cant load the image. I have a dialog box containing a command button and frame controls. if the button is clicked, it will open the file open box and load the raw image in the frame (IDC_DISPLAY). im using a SDI environment... can u please help me with this one...

If you use GDI+, you can use the Bitmap constructor that takes a path. You can draw the image yourself, or you can use a PictureBox control. If you're in VC6 and don't want GDI+, then ::LoadImage will load a bitmap file, which you can then do the same with. There is no support for other image formats in VC6 without GDI+, or some other library such as Paintlib.

I convert code from VC++6 to VC++.NET. When build solution, it has a lot
of error
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\Vc7\include\typeinfo(38): error C2039: '__non_rtti_object' : is not a member of 'operator``global namespace'''
Can you help me?
Thank you very mach!

VC6 is a very bad C++ compiler. VC7 is a very good one. There's a good chance if you get a lot of errors, your old code was not really valid C++. I had one error, in all the projects I migrated, but then, I've always been very aware of what the standard says
Here's[^] as link to someone who had the same issue.

This is still do not run. It have a lot of errors. For example:
c:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\Vc7\include\XUTILITY(871): error C2059: syntax error : ')'
c:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\Vc7\include\TYPEINFO(37): error C2039: 'bad_typeid' : is not a member of 'operator``global namespace'''
c:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\Vc7\include\XSTRING(1433): error C2059: syntax error : '>'
c:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\Vc7\include\stdexcept(10): error C2143: syntax error : missing ';' before '{'
c:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\Vc7\include\TYPEINFO.H(53): error C2143: syntax error : missing ';' before '{'
c:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\Vc7\include\xdebug(22): error C2143: syntax error : missing ';' before '{'
c:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\Vc7\include\XMEMORY(29): error C2447: '{' : missing function header (old-style formal list?)
When I change all library XUTILITY, TYPEINFO, XMEMORY, XSTRING of VC7 by library of VC6, It's other error.

Looks like your old code was not standards conformant.

You can't do this magically, you need to create the control that does it yourself.

If you were starting a new project what database would you use?
1. The app may be used in small shops where the price of SQL Server would bankrupt the business or large shops where they could afford it but probably wouldn't want to!
2. May only be deployed to one desktop.
3. May need to be server based.
4. Should need very little to no administration.
5. All installations would be on windows machines.
Thanks!

Based on all of your requirements, I would use Access.

Personally, I'd look into MSDE, mostly because Access is crap if you're used to using a real database. MSDE is free to distribute if you own SQL Server Developer Edition.

I downloaded SQL Server Express not long ago, and I'm sure I read that it will be free when it goes live. I can't remember it's exact limitations.

I think it had to do with no support for business intelligence and lack of support for very large databases. Not anything a small shop would need in the near future.

Well are you trying to test if its equal, because if you are then you meant to do
if(abc==numeric)
cout << "abc is numeric";
edit:
sorry i dont think i read that right, maybe you might try googling the "isnum" function.
