Hi Friends,
I have written the following code for knowing whether i have access to a particular directory.
CreateFile( (LPCTSTR)szDir, 0, 0, 0, OPEN_EXISTING, FILE_ATTRIBUTE_NORMAL, NULL);
where szDir is "C:\\ProgramData\\NewFolder" . It has all kind of access permission.
This is working fine in all OS,but not in Vista.
Can someone tell me the reason.
I am getting ACCESS_DENIED on Vista.
Please try the same on your machine and you will also see same behavior.
Thanks in advance.
Appu..

NiceNaidu am getting ACCESS_DENIED on Vista.
I read lot of similar problem with vista in past few days on this forum and always solution was you require Administrator access.

To execute your code in Vista you would need to run your application under the admin account. Does your code work when you are logged in as an admin
Somethings seem HARD to do, until we know how to do them.

Are you trying to create directory using CreateFile ??
An application cannot create a directory by using CreateFile, therefore only the OPEN_EXISTING value is valid for dwCreationDisposition for this use case.

No. I am trying to check whether i have access permissions to an existing directory.

MSDN documentation says
To open a directory using CreateFile, specify the FILE_FLAG_BACKUP_SEMANTICS flag as part of dwFlagsAndAttributes. Appropriate security checks still apply when this flag is used without SE_BACKUP_NAME and SE_RESTORE_NAME privileges.

One solution is Disable the User access control.
1. Launch MSCONFIG by from the Run menu
2. Click on the Tools tab. Scroll down till you find "Disable UAC" . Click on that line.
3. Press the Launch button.
4. A CMD window will open. When the command is done, you can close the window.
5. Close MSCONFIG. You need to reboot the computer for changes to apply.

Disabling UAC is not preferable.

I know it is not the preferrable solution but i dont find any other solution to resolve my problem
I am using SetWindowHookEx API and as an argument i use JournalPlayBack and it is working fine in other OS but not in vista.
1)I run it as an admin.
2)change manifest file.
I tried all hit and trial but not find any solution than i disable the UAC.
In your problem you find the solution but for JournalPlayback there is no solution except this as per as I know.

Hi ,
I am working on an simple vc++ application using vc6.0.
When I compile my code I am getting lots of warnings like:
c:\program files\microsoft visual studio\vc98\include\xtree(120) : warning C4786: 'std::_Tree<std::basic_string<char,std::char_traits<char>,std::allocator<char> >,std::pair<std::basic_string<char,std::char_traits<char>,std::allocator<char> > const ,

r,std::char_traits<char>,std::allocator<char> > >,std::allocator<std::basic_string<char,std::char_traits<char>,std::allocator<char> > > >::_Kfn,std::less<std::basic_string<char,std::char_traits<char>,std::allocator<char> > >,std::allocator<std::basi
c_string<char,std::char_traits<char>,std::allocator<char> > > >' : identifier was truncated to '255' characters in the debug information.
This is a single warning.
Is it beacuse I added an template??
If so please help me how to getrid of this one.
Regards,
Sunil Kumar

it is because the identifier has more than 255 characters, which is truncated in debug build.
just don't bother with this.
if you want to hide it, insert the following in your stdafx.h (or any common header if any) :
#pragma warning(disable: 4786)

If you want them to be global, take a look at this article at the CodeProject. However, if you only want the shortcut to work from within your application, then you'll have to process the keyboard input yourself.
Hope this helps,

You can use the WM_SETHOTKEY message.
See the documentation on MSDN.

You can find an example here. If this isn't quite what you're looking for then you could just use the RegisterHotkey() function - however this defines a system-wide hotkey (documentation here). If this fails, look at keyboard accelerators here.
Hope this helps,
