When right click my tray icon, show the menu, And there is a menu item "Restore window".
When click this menu item, it should restore window.
My code implement "Restore window" below:

void CWinSearchDlg::OnTrayRestoreWnd()
{
	DestroyTray();
	ShowWindow(SW_SHOW);
<font color="blue">
	if (CWnd::GetActiveWindow() != this)
	{
		SetActiveWindow();
		AfxMessageBox(_T("SetActiveWindow"));
	}
	else
	{
		AfxMessageBox(_T("no SetActiveWindow"));  <font color="red">//it goes here</font>
	}
	BOOL bRet = FALSE;
	bRet = SetWindowPos(&wndTop, 0, 0, 0, 0, SWP_NOSIZE | SWP_NOMOVE);
	if (bRet)
		AfxMessageBox(_T("SetWindowPos true"));<font color="red">//it goes here</font>
	else
		AfxMessageBox(_T("SetWindowPos false"));
	
	bRet = FALSE;
	bRet = SetForegroundWindow();
	if (bRet)
		AfxMessageBox(_T("true SetForegroundWindow"));<font color="red">//it goes here</font>
	else
		AfxMessageBox(_T("false SetForegroundWindow"));
	
	bRet = FALSE;
	bRet = ::BringWindowToTop(this->GetSafeHwnd());
	if (bRet)
		AfxMessageBox(_T("BringWindowToTop true"));<font color="red">//it goes here</font>
	else
		AfxMessageBox(_T("BringWindowToTop false"));

</font>
}

I've tried the code in blue font, but when restore the window, It doesn't bring to the top.
Please give me a sign!

Without digging through that (I'm lazy), I don't see any ShowWindow command. How did you hide the dialog in the first place? There are tray program examples aplenty on CP, so you may be able to see how they did it.

What do you mean exactly ? Are you asking what to provide with your application when you distribute it ? If yes, you need to include the ActiveX file (an .ocx file) of the control. You will also need to register it on the target machine.

ICustomDoc failing

Hi,
I am calling the below piece of code in DocumentComplete Event from IE.

<br />
CComPtr<IDispatch> spDisp;<br />
RESULT hr = m_spWebBrowser2->get_Document(&spDisp);<br />
if (SUCCEEDED(hr) && spDisp)<br />
{<br />
CComQIPtr<ICustomDoc, &IID_ICustomDoc> spCustomDoc(spDisp);<br />
}<br />

The spCustomDoc Object is invalid.
I am catching events from IE, and not from any webbrowser control in application.

Any idea whats going wrong?I am not sure whether we can use SetUIHandler for browsers.

Thanks in Advance.

Unhidden files/folders inside Hidden folders... [modified]

Peter Weyzen26-Sep-08 12:14

normal files in hidden folders: whether they are actually hidden themselves, should be considered hidden?

OK, so my question. Is there an easy way to detect this situation? TO detect when a file or folder lives deep inside some other hidden folder?

I do have one thought. To ascend through the parents, I might just put a "\.." onto the path, and check those to see if they are hidden.

Or, is there a better way?

Which host do I send my request to? [modified]

See we wanna send a simple text eMail to the following address:

Marzbany@yahoo.com

I'm gonna use SMTP to do so. But the problem is I don't know what "host name" should I select to send the eMail to. Any way I tried the followings, but I got an error message each time; By the way I used the port number 25 (default for SMTP):

mail.yahoo.com (I got WSAETIMEDOUT, that's "Time Out" and nothing from server)
www.yahoo.com (the same as above)

Maybe YAHOO! is not "listening" to me.
Can you suggest me a solution please?

Thank you masters!

Don;t you need to connect to YOUR mail provider? Look on your ISP's web site.

Unless the mail server providers are total imbeciles, they won't let any random person shove email through their server. For example, my ISP mail will only accept mail from with the customers PCs. I can't use my normal email program from some random hotel room...
