Who am I to talk....I still use Hungarian Notation (dwVariable, nVariable, etc.) so I'm sure what
variable types are at a glance. Lots of people laugh at that but Microsoft uses it in their
code and Microsoft is our master therefore we must obey.

 Yeah, I still do that in my code as well ... and even in the Java code I was writing not too long ago  .

I tried briefly at one time to stop using it and be "cool" but it drove me nuts having to
look for types when I'd rather just have a good idea (KNOW) just by looking at it.
Thankfully, I remember NO JAVA. Last time I used it it was version 1.x and compiler was command-
line. If I ever have to use it again I'll fall on my sword 
Cheers,

To me, no. I type faster than the IDE triggers Intellisense anyway. But I've seen coworkers do it for just that reason (and "claim" higher efficiency).

IntelliSense is for people like me who are crap typists.

Well, if carpel tunnel sets in because I program at 80 words a minute ... I might be right there with you

What's wrong with pressing the 'Ctrl' Key & Space Bar? Heck type the first few characters and if its unique VS 6 will fill in the rest for you.
I'd love to help, but unfortunatley I have prior commitments monitoring the length of my grass. :Andrew Bleakley:

A CString is actually a pointer. It's length is four bytes, same as any pointer. You can say that a CString is char* on steroids.
Therefore, using CString* will not help you with memory management. It will only introduce errors. Use the object itself, and familiarise yourself with all the great functions that come with it.

The internal layout/format of the file is obviously going to be different, but nothing physically different as far as the OS is concerned.

The format of the file is propriatery. While information might be available, since it is not supported by Microsoft, are you sure you'd want to rely upon it? What exactly is it that you are after (that Outlook Automation does not offer)?

Hello,
Any one knows a sample article OR a commercial component that allows file preview in an application. The preview should work for pictures, office documents, txt files.
Thank you.
Best Regards,
Dan.

can't you just ::ShellExecute() the file to preview so that it automatically opens the right application for it ?
|
|
|
|
|
Thank you for the reply.
I am intended to show the file preview into a MDI application.
Regards,
Dan.
