the article is targetted for VC6, so, no .NET framework at that time.

but yes, these are Win32/MFC samples.

Hi Folks.

I Have a program that is imlepmented as a Windows NT service.

It is a generic service that has multiple instances under different names.

The internal logic is based on the name of the service as installed:
NAME1 will work with files in folder $\NAME1, NAME2 will work with $\NAME2 etc..

As the service starts - how can I find out the name of the service
currently being started.

Thanks

Hillel

The name of the service, or the name of the EXE?

For the name of the service, it is passed as an argument to ServiceMain(). For the name of the EXE, it has already been answered.

ListControl View

When i apply font to my listcontrol view the font of the text doesnt change, however only the height of the row changes,
how can i change the font of the text in a listcontrol view
i use following command

LOGFONT lf;
CFont ListControlViewFont;
CFont *pFont = m_LogList->GetFont() ;// GetFont();
pFont->GetLogFont(&lf);

CFontDialog dlg(&lf);

if (dlg.DoModal() == IDOK)
{

dlg.GetCurrentFont(&lf);
ListControlViewFont.DeleteObject();
ListControlViewFont.CreateFontIndirect(&lf);
m_LogList->SetFont(&ListControlViewFont,TRUE);
}

i have tried all ups and down, by not using font dlg, and creating font manual, but nothing works, only row height changes, am i missing something,

Thanks in advance

If that is a local scope variable that is destructed after you call m_LogList->SetFont() that will not work. The font needs to stay in scope since you are passing a pointer to it.

Thanks a lot, That was the problem, because of the local scope the pointer becomes invalid once the function exits.

Once again many Thanks Wink | ;)

If you are using MFC:

CString strQuery;
strQuery.Format("SELECT * FROM empinfo4 e, proinfo4 p WHERE empid = '%s' AND e.gid = p.gid", id);
