you are gold medal man, you quite have ne excuse.
and wht can't you explain yourself ?
i know english is far from being your mother tongue, but please try and use simple words and short sentences, so that we can understand together...

well, explain yourself on the fact that you know copeproject well enough to know that you replied something that was already answered, particularly when your answer if perfectly naked...
have you seen this[^] before posting ?
so ?

Its interesting for me that does in this period I was useful when I answer to question or my answer was itself problem

 don't you understand ?
yes, answering a question in general well, and yes, your answer was exact and good.
but what i want you to understand, is that it's useless to tell something that has been submitted. it's as if you look on all the answers given there, and make a poor compilation af them. THIS is what i don't like ; and you know it, because we already had words on this some months ago.
if only you were replying within the same hour than someone else, but you come after 5 long hours and don't even provide much informations than what was already on the board.
i was feeling exactly the same way when i notified you here[^]
get me more now ?

Can anyone give me a link to sources on the web or hints on how to
write a
program the will add and option to program window that minimize it to
system
tray? I want to do something simular to
http://www.actualtools.com/windowmenu/ but only I only want to add a button to all application windows that will allow me to minimize it to system tray. For instance, if I startup Outlook it will automatically have this "minimize to system tray" added button it. If I run any application it will automatically have this "minimize to system tray" button added to it.
Thanks,

He can't have looked very far, I downloaded the exact tool he described just yesterday 
|
|
|
|

I want to write my own tools, I don't like downloading tools like this because I am suppose to be a programmer and I enjoy learning how to do things ... is funner to learn how to do it yourself than download! it's why I became a programmer

I have a call to the method ParseDateTime() where the date string is for example
"Mon 01-01-2007". For some reason this fails with an OLE error of DISP_E_TYPEMISMATCH.
Is the type mismatch really occurring because the short day name is included? I would think that the parsing should be able to handle that aspect.

If you suspect that, remove the first four characters and see.

Thanks David. That's exactly what's failing. The string is constructed locally using the user defined short date format. So some database software when recognizing that I'm retrieving a date field and requesting a string field, merrily uses the short date format to do the conversion. My code then passes the string to the COleDateTime class using it's ParseDateTime method and that fails. However as you suggested, I tried to experiment with different short date format specifiers and sure enough if the short date specifier includes the short form of the day in it then the ColeDateTime::ParsDateTime fails. I think that is a bug, but for now I'm going to have to figure out a work around. Thanks for the comment and help, though.

It's actually a "bug" with VarDateFromStr().

Absolutely. I traced down into that call and that's the one that doesn't like the short day of the week embedded in the date. I've changed my library to remove those strings from the date string and things seem to work fine. At least for English language, stuff. Thanks for the comments.

Hi...
Has anyone written a small app or is there some shareware app available that will let me "clean-up" Visual C++ folders before transferring files.
I am looking for something that would find all .obj, .pch, etc. files. Basically it would search in the folder that I am in at the time and any subfolders before that and remove any compiler/linker generated files that exist only at compilation/link time. This would make my folders a lot smaller and easier to manipulate in terms of "zipping up" for transferring from one PC to another or for archiving...
Thank you in advance
Pierre

Normaly, "Build / Clean Solution" is enough.
"We trained hard, but it seemed that every time we were beginning to form up into teams we would be reorganised. I was to learn later in life that we tend to meet any new situation by reorganising: and a wonderful method it can be for creating the illusion of progress, while producing confusion, inefficiency and demoralisation."

Thanks for the help but that won't work for me for two reasons...
1) I have a huge amount of projects that still have all the intermediate files that I would have to open in Visual Studio just to "Clean".
and
2) "Clean" says it deletes the intermediate files but it deletes the .exe file too
There must be some application that will scan down through folders, search for intermediate files and delete them????
Once again
Thanks
