You arent doing wrong BUT Microsoft had changed access right / managment in Vista. So check every call what can be wrong. -> Read the fine manuals online.

For instance in: g_hw_USBRead = CreateFile ( UsbReadPipe,
GENERIC_READ | GENERIC_WRITE,
FILE_SHARE_READ | FILE_SHARE_WRITE,

Check every parameter / flag: in reading you dont NEED write rights. Is UsbReadPipe vaild?

That is all yor work. OMG | :OMG:

I'm a little rusty, but doesn't that memset completely clear the STARTUPINFOA structure?

Why have you commented out the line which holds the size of sInfo?

Is this your command window or cmd if its cmd you can use of cmd/h.

Of course you have a way you can use of FindWindow for get hwnd to your window and then use of ::ShowWindow(hwnd,SW_HIDE);

Your problem is in the Flags:
sInfo.dwFlags = STARTF_USESHOWWINDOW;

PROCESS_INFORMATION pInfo;
STARTUPINFOA sInfo;
sInfo.cb = sizeof(STARTUPINFOA);
sInfo.lpReserved = NULL;
sInfo.lpReserved2 = NULL;
sInfo.cbReserved2 = 0;
sInfo.lpDesktop = NULL;
sInfo.lpTitle = NULL;
sInfo.dwFlags = STARTF_USESHOWWINDOW;
sInfo.dwX = 0;
sInfo.dwY = 0;
sInfo.dwFillAttribute = 0;
sInfo.wShowWindow = SW_HIDE;

BOOL ret = ::CreateProcess(m_PathToExe, lpExePlusArgs, NULL, NULL, FALSE, 0, NULL, NULL, &sInfo, &pInfo);

if(ret)
{
    // Wait until application has terminated
    WaitForSingleObject(pInfo.hProcess, INFINITE);

    // Close process and thread handles
    ::CloseHandle(pInfo.hThread);
    ::CloseHandle(pInfo.hProcess);
}

Read MSDN carefully and with patience.

It is a common problem that Release builds are crashing while Debug runs. In Debug build are the buffers bigger, so it doesnt crash if you overwrite some bytes. You only got to find where the too small buffer is... Blush | :O

I want to know how many keys (along with their keynames) are there in the particular section of an INI file and one by one i need to read the values of those keys....

Please let me know...

You can use GetPrivateProfileString() for this.

hi to all,

I want to use a couple of tables with information in MFC (vc6).
could anyone please tell me what is the common way we can handle database with MFC. I am comfortable to use MS access. Can I use it? If so how?

Also please suggest, other then database is there any other efficient way to store the details(may be in a file).

thanks in advance

thanks for your valuable reply

It works fine.But not able to create an object of CDatabase in a generic class.
Actually I want to access the database reading functions from different dialogs. So I thought of having a class in the application, and I can create the object of that class from any dialog class and use the functions(read_database_data).
But I am not able to create the CDatabase object , since it is a generic class. I know I have to inherit something .
Could you please suggest.
Also please suggest if the idea of creating the global class is alright.(All I needed is to call a function from different dialog classes).

thanks

This makes no sense. You can do the following from within any class:

CDatabase db1;
CDatabase *db2 = new Database();

I see nothing wrong with that approach.

Use Ctrl+Left/Right to switch messages, Ctrl+Up/Down to switch threads, Ctrl+Shift+Left/Right to switch pages.
