From the demo example copy this file to my path but i have this message:
C:\backupmik\research\help\dialogpreview.cpp(16) : error C2039: 'classCPrintPreviewDialog' : is not a member of 'CPrintPreviewDialog'

I don't understank because this file I copy it like that from the dem project.

maybe you need to include a file(header) that has CPrintPreviewDialog

You get this error "Cannot open include file: 'PrintExtension.h':"
so you include this file and compiler cant find this file so it show this error to you

Excuse me, i was create CFormView instead of CDialog.
Now I coorect it, no compilation error but in execution, they ask me PrintExtension.dll. I don't see this file because i have only PrintExtensiond.lib(PrintExtensiond.dll).

I was unable to figure this out with http://www.codeproject.com/printing/printextension.asp[^]. This was a big problem for me because I need this functionality to work. So what I did was write everything into a dc in memory and then found some functionality to rotate the dc 90 degrees. After rotating it 90 degrees I was then showed the print preview. Even though the print preview was still showing portrait everything was rotated 90 degress so it was really landscape.

I know this seems pretty complicated and it was. Like I said I had to make this functionality work....and I did. It just took a lot of work.

After you are finished with you dc select in an empty CBitmap. This will return the current dc as a CBitmap. Like this....

CBitmap* bm = memDC.SelectObject(oldbm);

Now you can get the HBitmap out of the CBitmap like this.....

HBITMAP hbitmap = (HBITMAP)bm->m_hObject;

Now take the hbitmap and place it into the following function to rotate it...and there you go. You can put the hbitmap back into a CBitmap and then place it on the DC before you do a print preview.

bool HBITMAPRotate										(HBITMAP& hBitmap,
														 float radians,
														 COLORREF clrBack,
														 CErrorHandler& eh)
{
	// Create a memory DC compatible with the display
	CDC sourceDC;
	CDC destDC;
	if (sourceDC.CreateCompatibleDC(NULL) == FALSE)
	{
		eh.Initialize();
		eh.Set(__FUNCTION__,__FILE__,__LINE__,EHTYPE_ERROR,LoadStringFromDLL(IDS_ERROR_CREATECOMPATIBLEDC).c_str());
		return false;
	}
	if (destDC.CreateCompatibleDC(NULL) == FALSE)
	{
		eh.Initialize();
		eh.Set(__FUNCTION__,__FILE__,__LINE__,EHTYPE_ERROR,LoadStringFromDLL(IDS_ERROR_CREATECOMPATIBLEDC).c_str());
		return false;
	}

	// Get logical coordinates
	BITMAP bm;
	if (GetObject(hBitmap,sizeof(bm),&bm) == 0)
	{
		eh.Initialize();
		eh.Set(__FUNCTION__,__FILE__,__LINE__,EHTYPE_ERROR,LoadStringFromDLL(IDS_ERROR_GETOBJECT_HBITMAP).c_str());
		return false;
	}

	float cosine = (float)cos(radians);
	float sine = (float)sin(radians);

	// Compute dimensions of the resulting bitmap
	// First get the coordinates of the 3 corners other than origin
	int x1 = (int)(bm.bmHeight * sine);
	int y1 = (int)(bm.bmHeight * cosine);
	int x2 = (int)(bm.bmWidth * cosine + bm.bmHeight * sine);
	int y2 = (int)(bm.bmHeight * cosine - bm.bmWidth * sine);
	int x3 = (int)(bm.bmWidth * cosine);
	int y3 = (int)(-bm.bmWidth * sine);

	int minx = min(0,min(x1, min(x2,x3)));
	int miny = min(0,min(y1, min(y2,y3)));
	int maxx = max(0,max(x1, max(x2,x3)));
	int maxy = max(0,max(y1, max(y2,y3)));

	int w = maxx - minx;
	int h = maxy - miny;

	// Create a bitmap to hold the result

	HBITMAP hbmOldSource = (HBITMAP)::SelectObject( sourceDC.m_hDC, hBitmap );
	HBITMAP hbmOldDest = (HBITMAP)::SelectObject( destDC.m_hDC, hbmResult );

	// Draw the background color before we change mapping mode
	HBRUSH hbrBack = CreateSolidBrush( clrBack );
	if (hbrBack == NULL)
	{
		eh.Initialize();
		eh.Set(__FUNCTION__,__FILE__,__LINE__,EHTYPE_ERROR,LoadStringFromDLL(IDS_ERROR_CREATESOLIDBRUSH).c_str());
		return false;
	}
	HBRUSH hbrOld = (HBRUSH)::SelectObject( destDC.m_hDC, hbrBack );
	if (destDC.PatBlt(0,0,w,h,PATCOPY) == FALSE)
	{
		eh.Initialize();
		eh.Set(__FUNCTION__,__FILE__,__LINE__,EHTYPE_ERROR,LoadStringFromDLL(IDS_ERROR_PATBIT).c_str());
		return false;
	}

	::DeleteObject( ::SelectObject( destDC.m_hDC, hbrOld ) );

	// We will use world transform to rotate the bitmap
	SetGraphicsMode(destDC.m_hDC, GM_ADVANCED);
	XFORM xform;
	xform.eM11 = cosine;

	// Now do the actual rotating - a pixel at a time
	if (destDC.BitBlt(0,0,bm.bmWidth,bm.bmHeight,&sourceDC,0,0,SRCCOPY) == FALSE)
	{
		eh.Initialize();

Would you like to send me also those codes. What you have write exactly.

The second problem is that if what to print is more than one page, to click on Next button on print screen change only the page number but data stay the some,what to do.

CString to unsigned long

Hi,
Can you please suggest some alternative to do the following?
I want to convert a time values Cstring to unsigned long.

Done the following:-
CTime time1("20060708121212"); // Time as CSting format as a CString variable
char *pEnd;
unsigned long ultime = strtoul(time1,&pEnd,0);

But the CString is not converted correctly to unsigned long.
Is there any other solutions please.

Thanks

Thanks
Raji

maximum value an unsigned long can store is 4 294 967 296.

you try to insert a bigger valu in it, so the behavior is not what you expect...

This is not possible. Your compiler should have indicated such. Try:

CString strTime("4294967295");
DWORD dwTime = strtoul(strTime, &pEnd, 10);

CTime is not a CString.

Last time I checked, CTime did not have a constructor that accepted a string parameter.

If you have a string that is formatted as YYYYMMDDHHmmSS (Y = year, M = month, D = day, H = hour, m = minute, S = second), then you could grab the correct parts and put them into a CTime variable:

CString str = _T("20060708121212");<br />
long year = atol(str.Mid(0, 4));<br />
long month = atol(str.Mid(4, 2));<br />
long day = atol(str.Mid(6, 2));<br />
long hour = atol(str.Mid(8, 2));<br />
long minute = atol(str.Mid(10, 2));<br />
long second = atol(str.Mid(12, 2));<br />
CTime time(year, month, day, hour, minute, second);

why you want unsigned long with SystemDate! any specific reason?

Now I let a have a docking toolbar on the left edge of the MainFrame. I want to let the toolbar stay there always,without being changed the size.That is the user can't drag it or maximize it or close it.

I have try a few methods,but no success.I'm anxtious for the answer.
Thank every one who care this question.
