That's the point. Now i'm thinking about finding Excel 5.0 or 9.0 library, may be it can work. I think, i just have bad office on two computers, installed from 1 CD

Can you try using the "bad" type library with VB?

Re: Error importing Excel typelib [modified]

12-Jun-07 5:01

Yes and its works in VB in managed C++ in C#, and even 5.0 library doesnt work in C++.
Something wrong here, what can I do improperly?

OK, I'll try to list my actions.
1) Creating a ialog based MFC application (other parameters is by default)
2) Add->Class->MFC class from TypeLib
The window contains library list and list of classes that can be created.
3) Selecting the _Application class (only 1 for example) and header is CApplication.h
4) OK
5) Run (it works)
6) Include CApplication.h into any file
7) Run (100's of error)

in the top of the header there is #import directive. I've reduced error count by changing attributes of it. So, can you list me your attributes, please?

Hello,

Suddenly my project has started giving me error saying a certain .bsr file doesnot exist.I rebuild the project but in vain.

DO I need to make another project or I can do something with the existing project.

Thanks

I believe these are browsing symbols. I always disable them as they add a significant amount to the compile time and I rarely used them when they were activated.

I am sorry, I got that confused with a .bsc file which is the symbols file. I would just create a new project and put your project files in it.

Popup menu to an existing menu

Hello,

If I have a menu with 4 menu options and I want to attach a popup menu to one of the menu options then is it possible ?

I have tried ModifyMenu() function with MF_POPUP parameter but it did not work.When I want to change the string with MF_STRING parameter I am able to do it.

Thanks

Hello,
Thanks for your reply
I have the following code

CMenu M;
M.CreateMenu
M.AppendMenu(MF_STRING, id_DAta, "Data");
M.AppendMenu(MF_STRING, id_Edit, "Edit");
M.AppendMenu(MF_STRING, id_Model, "Model");

Now the above code works.
How should I have popup menu like the following attached to Data. I do not want to add to the 3 menu options above
CMenu M1;
M1.CreatePopupMenu
M1.AppendMenu(MF_STRING, id_Data1, "Data1");
M1.AppendMenu(MF_STRING, id_Data2, "Data2");
M1.AppendMenu(MF_STRING, id_Data3, "Data3");

Thanks

Your code needs a little work but see this example on the MSDN CMenu:: InsertMenu[^]

Hello,

Before posing the question to the codeproject forum I went through the MSDN CMenu examples but I did not understand how to attach a popup menu to an existing menu which is already there with MF_STRING parameter .

I think somewhere I should use ModifyMenu() to make changes in the Menu but I don't know how to use ModifyMenu

So please help me.
Thanks for your concern

CWinThread problem!!!

I have a class derived from CWinThread, which have a CWnd* member which would recieve message from the thread. In the class also has a socket member,it would send network message to the CWnd* member.

I use such class in a Dialog,it works well.But when the main dialog create a new child dialog and show it using DoModal() function, and I want to make the child dialog correspond to the thread message and network message. In the child dialog,I send data to somewhere,but the class does send the data when the child dialog closed. Why?
Thanks

Good Luck.

Arman S.11-Jun-07 19:40

11-Jun-07 19:40

Why?

Perheps, because the child dialog is modal.

In the child dialog,I send data to somewhere,

Please, specify more details. What do you actualy do? How do you send?

main form instance name

I feel like a bit of a newbie asking this, but I have never had to access elements on the main form from outside it before.

So here it is: I need to access a textbox from a cpp file .... the textbox is on the main form which is initialized in the main function ... with the usual Application::Run.

in the main cpp file:

..........................................

#include "Form1.h"

int main(array<system::string ^=""> ^args)
{

Application::Run(gcnew Form1());

Form1::textBox1->Text = "some text";

}
...........................................

This doesn't work of course, because I am referencing the header class itself, and not the form instance .... but what is the form instance ????

now ... I know I could use ...

Form1^ myForm = gcnew Form1;
myForm->ShowDialog();

except that gcnew objects cannot be declared globally, and I need to access some of the form elements from other parts of the code, not main().

So I'm stuck .... any help would be appreciated.

Thanks
Aaron
