Declare it as static class member in one of the classes.

In a .h file (let's call it my_global_struct.h):

#if !defined(__my_global_struct_h__)
#define __my_global_struct_h__

struct my_global_struct
{
   // put whatever you want in the struct here
};

extern my_global_struct;

#endif // !defined(__my_global_struct_h__)

In a .cpp file (let's call it my_global_struct.cpp):

#include my_global_struct.h
my_global_struct;

#include my_global_struct.h into any files that need to see the global struct variable.

Thank you very much for your reply
but i need to user the same structure with the filled values in other form.

Thanks again, I tried your solution but may i need another thing.
Ex: struct ggg{
int i;
int j;
}test;

in the first form1 i put "test fff;"
fff.i=1;

in the second form i want to use the value of the same structure fff.
Ex: i want in the form2 to give the value of fff.i to another variable in form2;
any solution? really i spend one day on this. Sigh | :sigh:

If you put test fff; in the form, then it's a member of the form class. So, you'd need to access it using an instance of the first form.

If you want to share fff across all instances of form1 and form2, then you could make fff a static (or class-wide) member[^] of form1 - like this:

class Form1
{
  // Other stuff
  public: static test fff;
};

In Form1, you need to have a definition for fff (hte above is just the declaration like this:

test Form1::fff = { 1, 2 };

In form2, you can access it like this (I'm doing it in the constructor):

Form2::Form2()
{
  this->other_variable = Form1::fff.i;
}

In XP, did you check your garbage, I mean value in the registry.

What is the dwLenght value before and after the call? What is the expected data value (and the 'garbage' one?)?
Why didn't you check RegQueryValueEx return value?

A string means many chars.
So what do you want to do here?

You usually directly fill the array content with GetWindowText, for instance:

#define SIZE    0x100
TCHAR myArray[SIZE];
if ( ! GetWindowText(hWnd, myArray, SIZE) )
{
  // handle error
}
//..

Seems kind of silly but here goes:

char szString[100];
GetWindowText(hWnd, szString, sizeof(szString));
char c = szString[0];

That was just an example. It's up to you to provide whatever name you've given the window handle. Roll eyes | :rolleyes:

C2065 is one of the easiest compiler errors to fix.

Since you are using MFC, try:

m_slot.GetWindowText(szString, sizeof(szString));

::GetWindowText(m_slot.GetSafeHwnd(), szString, sizeof(szString));
