I have my own list derived from CListCtrl, i implement DrawItem myself. the list has a style LVS_EX_CHECKBOXES. so in the DrawItem i see if the item is checked i draw a check box in checked style and if it is not checked i draw a check box unchecked.
the list also has a style : single selection, show always, and full row selection.
problem is what i start the application and i try to check the first item. it checks it ok.
then i want to uncheck but nothing happens. in the draw item i still see the status of checked.
also in the OnItemChanging implementation, i see the newstate still checked....the only way to unchecked the item is to try and check an other item...then it uncheck the first item and checked the selected new item. i am not familiar with this behavior, i know that when u check an item, it stays checked until you uncheck it, and not when u check an other item. also if you check an other item , the first item you've checked should stay checked.
can any1 help?
thanks in advanced

Try RedrawWindow() on Item changed event.
Knock out 't' from can't,
You can if you think you can

it doesn't work....the item state after it is checked remains checked....
what else is wrong?

Do you know how can I use Windows Media Player ActiveX control under VC++ 2005???
With VC++ 6 it is very simple...
but with VC++ 2005 mfc assignes differrent class to the control and there is no documentation for it.

Hey guys,
I have a dialog based application. I want to save the last configuration of the that application. For example if I have a # of selected countries field set to 7 in last configuration, then next time if I open it, it should be saved.

You can use from registry and See Here[^] maybe it is some helpful to you

I would recommend against using the registry for a couple reasons:
1) It is a very old technology that is being phased out (slowly, but surely)
2) It is far more complicated than what you need anyway.
A simple solution is to write out a text file in some format (XML is nice for this) that you check for when your app starts. If the file exists, it loads the settings; if not, it uses a default configuration. Additionally, you can configure the file to exist anywhere you like (though, if you want to cooperate properly with Windows XP, you should put it in the users Document and Settings directory).
If you decide to become a software engineer, you are signing up to have a 1/2" piece of silicon tell you exactly how stupid you really are for 8 hours a day, 5 days a week

You may profile the data into .ini file for the application....

I have an outside application.
I found the buttons window using EnumChildWindows
I send the following to it:
SendMessage(hwnd, WM_LBUTTONDOWN, 0, 0);
SendMessage(hwnd, WM_LBUTTONUP, 0, 0);
I put in a 300 millisecnd delay but the event for the button never fires.
Does anyone know why it would fire?
I can see the image of the button change. But its not releasing correctly. I have to click my app really fast to get the release to work right. But, the click event still doesn't fire.
Is there somethibng special require to get the button event to fire?
Thanks,
Nick

Use SendInput() to simulate user input.
You may be right
I may be crazy

Yes, i tried that first. But I have a problem.
It is a tabbed windows app.
It Registers each tab as a Window.
I need to click this tab. How do I get the exact screen coordinate to feed into SendInput?
GetClientRect is only local coordinates I think.
Please Tell me what methods to call to get rectangle to place the mouse position?

BM_CLICK instead of WM_LBUTTONDOWN

Some problems are so complex that you have to be highly intelligent and well informed just to be undecided about them.

I am trying to set the edit control part of the dropdown to a specific number such as 15 (m_data = "15"). But because a value of 150 exists in the dropdown, it automatically sets it that number. How to I disable this? Thanks.

Yes, it's a dropdown combo box.
|
|
|
|
|
experiment:
edit does not change even if string exists in combo box
any specific non-default styles?

No. It's just a dropdown with a CString member variable mapped to it. When I set the value to 16 for instance, it accepts that value. But for some reason, the value changes or the auto-complete kicks in when the number resembles what's in the pull-down.

handle CBN_EDITCHANGE
what you see after UpdateData?

<br />
#include <windows.h><br />
#include <stdio.h><br />
#include <iostream.h><br />
<br />
#import "C:\Program Files\Common Files\System\ADO\msado15.dll" \<br />
no_namespace rename("EOF", "EndOfFile")<br />
<br />
void main(int argc, char* argv[])<br />
{<br />
<br />
HRESULT hr = S_OK;<br />
_ConnectionPtr m_pConn;<br />
try<br />
{<br />
HRESULT hr = m_pConn.CreateInstance(__uuidof(Connection));<br />
if (FAILED( hr ))<br />
cout<<"Can't create an intance of ADO.Connection"<<endl;<br />
<br />
if (FAILED( m_pConn->Open(_bstr_t("Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source =ADOTestDB.MDB"),<br />
_bstr_t( "" ),<br />
_bstr_t( "" ), <br />
adModeUnknown )))<br />
<br />
cout<<"Can't open datasource"<<endl;<br />
<br />
<br />
_CommandPtr pCommand;<br />
pCommand.CreateInstance (__uuidof (Command));<br />
pCommand->ActiveConnection = m_pConn; <br />
pCommand->CommandText = "Select Name,Dept From Student";<br />
_RecordsetPtr pRecordset;<br />
pRecordset.CreateInstance (__uuidof (Recordset));<br />
pRecordset->CursorLocation = adUseClient;<br />
pRecordset->Open ( (IDispatch *) pCommand, vtMissing, adOpenStatic,<br />
adLockBatchOptimistic, adCmdUnknown);<br />
<br />
_bstr_t valField1;<br />
int valField2;<br />
pRecordset->MoveFirst();<br />
if (!pRecordset->EndOfFile)<br />
{<br />
while(!pRecordset->EndOfFile)<br />
{<br />
valField1 = pRecordset->Fields->GetItem("Name")->Value;<br />
valField2 = pRecordset->Fields->GetItem("Dept")->Value.intVal;<br />
printf("%d - %s\n",valField2,(LPCSTR)valField1);<br />
pRecordset->MoveNext();<br />
}<br />
}<br />
<br />
<br />
}catch( _com_error &ce )<br />
{<br />
printf("Error:%s\n",ce.Description);<br />
<br />
}<br />
m_pConn->Close();<br />
<br />
}<br />
i get an exeption
"Can't create an intance of ADO.Connection"
and the i asks if i want to debug
Pls help me i'm trying a lot to connect to a db and enything i do seems to be wrong
and the truth is that everytime i post a msg about C++ and ADO no one
replies.
pls i'm desparate

ADO is a set of COM objects. To use COM from any thread, you need to call CoInitialize (or for advanced users that won't run on W9x or ME, CoInitializeEx).
Try putting
CoInitialize(NULL);
after your declaration of hr,
move your connection pointer inside your try block [it's a smart pointer, and needs to go out of scope or be released before calling CoUninitialize()]
Add
CoUninitialize();
after your catch block.

Hey Thanks Steve is FINALLY WORKING!!!
thanks you Steve S i'm so happy i was about to give up
BTW do you know any good reference that i can use to learn about ADO and COM objects because using sample codes i cannot understand the reall structure of ADO
i just copy paste without understanding.
Thanks again Steve S i appreciate all the help

No problem;
I'm more of an OLEDB man myself, but SAMS had a "Database Programming in VC++" which I think covered most techniques. COM itself has a relatively small surface area to learn, but there are lots of things that you need to know. Best bet is to look for tutorials in places like CodeProject.

Thanks again i found that book of Sams and Db programming in 21 days the problem is that he use the MFC and wizards which i don't really understand either.
Maybe your right the best place to learn from is the web
BTW can i ask something else.
i need to execute a query like:
"Select Name,Dept From Student WHERE Name=? "
i want the query to get the name from a variable of type string.
"Select Name,Dept From Student WHERE Name=token//token is a variable of type string which get the value from a different function
how can i do that? di i need to use stored procedures?
Thanks again steve S
