It is the only way that will not end in blood, sweat and tears, IMHO.
NEVER EVER call UpdateData() yourself, but use control-variables and Get/SetWindowText.
The value-variables are for shielding the inner workings of a dialog from the outside.
INSIDE a dialog they only spread confusion.
So far my personal, very dogmatic views.

UpdateWindow -> UpdateData

Perhaps you meant UpdateData().

Yet another example of why UpdateData() should be avoided. It's just too easy to mess up. You'd be better off using GetWindowText() instead.

I do not think that UpdateData(x) should be avoided. If used correctly, it is a lot eaiser then GetWindowText/SetWindowText. From the code snippet provided, It is not really clear what the purpose of two variables si, for one value to be retrieved...
just my tuppence..

That's a mighty big if there. The problem is that most beginners do not use it correctly and end up butchering their code just to get around its caveats. I find it best to avoid altogether. GetWindowText() and SetWindowText are a lot cleaner and you can tell exactly what is going to happen. Using UpdateData() is an all-or-nothing operation.
Consider the situation where you set some member variables, call a dialog's DoModal() method, call UpdateData(), then click the Cancel button. Now the member variables are potentially not in the same state they were prior to calling DoModal(). You should be able to assume that member variables retain their same value before and after if the Cancel button has been clicked. Use of UpdateData() makes this a bad assumption.

Nobody said programming is easy. If it was, we would not get paid as much 
As for choosing Cancel, do you manipulate application data directly within the dialog? Or do you wait for the result (IDOK or IDCANCEL) before making any changes resulting from the data being changed within the dialog?
again, just my tuppence

I need to integrate Activex control(OCX) object into ATL COM Server DLL project. I created a dialog in my the project and added activex control. After adding the ActiveX control my other parts of the program are not working properly. The COM DLL calls CoCreateInstance() to connect to another component. At this point it hangs. If I remove the ActiveX object from the project everything works fine. Do you guys have any idea?

Hi again
i have another simple question
i'm doing the following
string text;
int lenght=text.lenght;
compilation error::
error C2440: 'initializing' : cannot convert from 'unsigned int (__thiscall std::basic_string<char,struct std::char_traits<char="">,class std::allocator<char> >::*' to 'int'
Conversion is a valid standard conversion, which can be performed implicitly or by use of static_cast, C-style cast or function-style cast
Error executing cl.exe.
What is the problem i've seen this in many codes what is wrong with mine
Thanks in advance

They didn't do the beginners any good with this stupid property-notation in the Hype-languages.

Hello People,
I want to paint the caption bar dynamically with color of my choice. The Font and Color of the Caption Bar text should change.
Besides, I also want to change the border color to match the Caption Bar Color.
Has Anyone done this earlier?
Any help on this?

After repeated database operations while opening closing a child window of a dialog applications, a message box will pop up saying "Too many client tasks. Driver's SQLSetConnectAttr failed". I am a beginner in mfc/C++ programming and need this program runnning ASAP and any help would be appreciated. thanx

For every connection that you create, there must be a matching destroy. Why not just create one connection when the application is started, and destroy it when the application closes? Creating a connection to a datasource can be a very costly operation.

The code given below works fine as long the mouse is on the application dialog,
but as it leaves the dialog mouse position coordinates do not change.
I have set hook as under;
pfnMyMouseMonitor = (HOOKPROC)MouseProc;
hMouseHook = ::SetWindowsHookEx(WH_MOUSE,pfnMyMouseMonitor,(HINSTANCE) NULL, GetCurrentThreadId());
Mouse function is as under
LRESULT CALLBACK MouseProc(int nCode, WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam)
{
MOUSEHOOKSTRUCT* pms = (MOUSEHOOKSTRUCT*)lParam;
//pms->
if (nCode == HC_ACTION)
{
str.Format("x = %d : y = %d",pms->pt.x ,pms->pt.y);
px->SetWindowText(str); // px is pointer to static control on dialog
}
return(::CallNextHookEx(hMouseHook, nCode, wParam, lParam));
}
I donot want to use dlls.
Thanks in advance.

u can't put a globel mouse hook unless u put the hook function in a dll.
In this case in order to get the window text below, use
SetCapture()

The system function call waveInGetPosition retrieves the current input position of the given waveform-audio input device. The function call returns the position in the parameter MMTIME in the given format. (if possible)
In my application I use the TIME_SAMPLES format wich specifies the current position in an offset in samples since the last time the waveform-audio input device was reset.
My question is: What would happen if a recording gets to long (nSamples>(2^32)-1).
I think it just simply wraps around the current position but I am not sure about this. (I have never tried) And it would take me about 12 hours to figure out by myself. (4294967296/96000/3600=12.43) 
Thanks.

Hai to all,
Can anybody understand this function can you please explain me. by using this function the size of the image we are storing is increasing the size. I have to reduce that size. I am unable to find what to do. with out using this function the size of the image is 40kb and after using this function it size become 622kb. I am using Black and while image. I think by reading any image by Gdiplus Image function it will take it into color mode. becoz of that it is taking large size.
If possible can tell me how to reduce the size of the image.

Every DHCP network has a DHCP server, and every DHCP server has a lease table. Every DHCP Lease table has a correlation of Mac to IP. I want to be able to access the information in the DHCP Lease Table without shutting down services. The Microsoft DHCP management console can do this, and the W2K3 admin pack (installed on a client computer) allows this to happen from a remote computer, so I know it can be done. Not all DHCP servers are Windows machines, some are Routers, some are Linux, etc. So is there a way of accessing the information in the Lease table regardless if it is on a Windows server, router, etc.? Could perhaps output the information to a .csv file in a temp folder for input/review for our program.
