hi
you can use the CString constructor to do this
CString strInfo(IDS_INFO);
or the Format method of CString if the reseource string needs additional paramaters
like this:
CString strHelloWorld;<br />
strHelloWorld.Format(IDS_HELLO, "world");

You can also use AfxFormatString1 & AfxFormatString2
if your resource HELLO_ID is: "Hello %1"
you can do:
CString result;
AfxFormatString1(result HELLO_ID, "World");
it gives u Hello World

Hmm... seems like it won't work:
---------------------------
#include <afx.h>
#include "stdafx.h"
int APIENTRY WinMain(HINSTANCE hInstance,
HINSTANCE hPrevInstance,
LPSTR lpCmdLine,
int nCmdShow)
{
CString errors;
errors.LoadString(IDS_ERROR1);
MessageBox(NULL, errors, "Hello", MB_OK);
return 0;
}
---------------------------
Errors:
---------------------------
C:\VCProjs\KixWTF\KixWTF.cpp(14) : error C2065: 'CString' : undeclared identifier
C:\VCProjs\KixWTF\KixWTF.cpp(14) : error C2146: syntax error : missing ';' before identifier 'errors'
C:\VCProjs\KixWTF\KixWTF.cpp(14) : error C2065: 'errors' : undeclared identifier
C:\VCProjs\KixWTF\KixWTF.cpp(16) : error C2228: left of '.LoadStringA' must have class/struct/union type
C:\VCProjs\KixWTF\KixWTF.cpp(16) : error C2065: 'IDS_ERROR1' : undeclared identifier
---------------------------
Anyone know? 
Thanks!

I assumed you were building an MFC app. Here's[^] a link to the Win32 version of the API.

Create a console application and select MFC support.

Create an MFC dialog based application and don't create the dialog in your app's InitInstance() method. Instead, just execute whatever (non-GUI) code you wish to call. Note, your app will exit when it returns from InitInstance().
Hope this helps!

[edit]
Fixed!
MessageBox(NULL, "Hellawz!!1!11", "Hello", MB_OK);
[/edit]
Hello everyone! 
OK, I want to make a program that just displays a message box and exits. How do I do that? When I make a MFC AppWizard (exe), I get a dialog, which I don't want. When I try Win32 Application, I get a C2550 error:
'MessageBoxA' : function does not take 3 parameters
no matter if I select empty, simple, or hello world.
How can I reach what I listed? Thanks!

Hi
I used a Win32 Console application and didn't have any problems:
#include "stdafx.h"
#include <windows.h>
int _tmain(int argc, _TCHAR* argv[])
{
MessageBox(NULL, "Hello", "Hello", MB_OK);
return 0;
}
codito ergo sum

In MFC, the MessageBox function works within a dialog and takes 3 paramaters, but the non MFC version takes 4, the one that is omitted is the first one, the handle to the parent window.

Hi,
I am creating a shell namespace extension by implementing IShellView and IShellFolder interfaces. The extension will show all the files inside a zip archive. Since the files doesn't physically exist on the disk, I am creating a shell extension which will show the files in the archive just like how XP shows zip files.
But I am having a problem in retrieving the context menu for the file types. If the user right-clicks on a txt file, I would like to show exactly the same context menu, which is shown by right-click on a txt file in explorer.
Could anyone please tell me how this can be done.
Any pointers to sample code / article would be really helpful.
Thanks and Regards

This might be a very trivial question for most of you. I want to know how to write a program in vc++ for scanning a particular port on the lan. I have written a chat program, I want that whenever a user starts the client, it scans the network and finds the ip for connecting, if no server is found it will become a server. Most messengers do the same thing I suppose. Thanks in advance.
I dream so I do.

Hi
I have a suggest,I think it is better to use othere way to find server.
If you wana to use your messanger on a LAN you can use broadcast messages.
when a client want to find server Send a BC message on the network if server peresent answer it by sending message contain its IP & other information and if isn't present the client can work as a server after some try and listen for clients BC message.

Yes, that's exactly what I want to do, but I donot know how to implement. Could you please help me with code. Thanks.

Hi
in this code I listen a socket to receive server's response and then Send BC message to the network (this is a client action)
m_LSocket->Create(1000);<br />
m_LSocket->Listen();<br />
CAsyncSocket s;<br />
s.Create(334400,SOCK_DGRAM);<br />
BOOL bOptVal = TRUE;<br />
s.SetSockOpt(SO_BROADCAST,(char*)&bOptVal,sizeof(BOOL));<br />
char buf[256];<br />
<br />
CString Address("255.255.255.255");
unsigned int port = 1000;
strcpy(buf,"Requesting Connection");
s.SendTo(buf,256,port);
On the server side you most listen a Datagram socke (SOCK_DGRAM), and wait to receive a connection request.
Is it enough.;)

I have this very odd problem, my application contains and open, save, and font dialog box in it. I am using the ones that come with Visual Studio already, and when I first run my application and launch the font dialog it comes up all weird looking, see this screen shot, until I launch either the open or save dialogs. I dont have to do anything with them other than open them and then cancel them and once I do the font dialog works like it should. Anyone have any suggestions as to why this may be happening or how to fix it?
Thanks,

Ok, the even weirder part is this happens with the MessageBox.Show as well! Very Very Odd!

Hmm. It looks like the static controls in the dialogs aren't loading (or painting) correctly, while the dialogs themselves are OK. Note that these are common dialogs, provided by Windows, and don't "come with" Visual Studio.
That said, are you trying to customize these dialogs at all? Are you creating your own class, derived from CFontDialog? Post some of your code where you are using these dialogs, and we'll take a look.
