Yes and no.
They occasionally change the argument/parameter order in a method (i.e. CRegKey changed between 6.0 and 2003) but for the most part, the overall approach tends to change little. Ivor Horton has hardly changed his "Beginning Visual C++" books over the years since the basics have not changed all that much.
However, I don't think I've ever been able to compile an MFC application with a newer version of Visual Studio without needing to change a few things such as the project VC++ Directories, minor shifts in the header files, etc...
ATL has changed a bit over the years and a few things have been left out in newer versions of Visual C++ so that tends to be the most painful part if you utilize any ATL.

Greetings!
I need to get the help button at the bottom left of the older version of the CPrintDialog class to point to something other than its default location.
Is there a way to do so?
I was able to hide the Help button with code resembling the following line:
dlg.m_pd.Flags -= PD_SHOWHELP;
Thank you for your help.
Regards,
Rajneesh

for that, you need to get get the control ID of the 'Help' button on PrintDialog. Using Spy++, i could find it as 0x40E. Don't know whether it is #defined anywhere 
Try adding an MFC class (say CMyPrintDlg), derived from CPrintDialog, override its OnInitDialog().
BOOL CMyPrintDlg::OnInitDialog()
{
CPrintDialog::OnInitDialog();
CWnd *pBtnHelp = this->GetDlgItem(0x40E);
if(pBtnHelp)
{
CRect rc;
pBtnHelp->GetWindowRect(&rc);
ScreenToClient(&rc);
pBtnHelp->SetWindowPos(0, 0, rc.top, 0, 0, SWP_NOSIZE);
}
return TRUE;
}
and invoke it..
CMyPrintDlg dlg(FALSE, PD_PAGENUMS | PD_USEDEVMODECOPIES | PD_SHOWHELP);
dlg.m_pd.nMinPage = dlg.m_pd.nFromPage =1;
dlg.m_pd.nMaxPage = dlg.m_pd.nToPage = 10;
if (dlg.DoModal() == IDOK)
{
}

There's a looooot of documentation at LibTIFF website.

Hi all,
I have made a sdi application, in that application i have made a splitter control. On Left and right side of splitter control i have placed a class derived from CFormView. On Left side of Splitter control on form view i have placed a Report style list control. All things are working fine bu my List control is not displaying vertical scrollbar but instead it is displaying a horizontal scrollbar.
What can i do?
Can anybody help me in this?
Thanks in advance

Are you resizing the list control properly? Make sure the control is not wider than your splitter pane. Also, you need to populate the list with enough items to make the scroll bar visible.
If the list should fill the entire area, you could use a CListView instead.

|

if the points specified above are alright, another reason for only the horizonatal scrollbar to get showed is, setting the LVS_ALIGNLEFT property to list control. Try changing it to LVS_ALIGN_TOP.
m_listControl.ModifyStyle(0, LVS_ALIGNTOP, 0);

I have 5 Edit ownerdraw controls on dialog. How to set Tab order in a go?

By default the tab order is set in the order of creation of the controls.
To change this you can use SetWindowPos by specifying the hWndInsertAfter parameter.

I have a MFC based window application developed in VC6.0. We have developed it in English language. Hence all the menu, windows, messages and other text of the application are displayed in English.
I want it to be displayed in other languages also.
Is there any quick way to do the conversion of the language?
What is the way to do the conversion?
Please suggest me with all the possible ways to convert the langugage.
Thanks in advance,
Mohan

Do we really require to change the project settings to UNICODE? I dont think so, we can very well support all languages (including east asian languages) in MBCS also. Please correct me if I am wrong.
Thanks,
Anand.

it may be possible if intense effort is taken to replace required char type variables with wchar_t types, CRT function calls like strlen() with wcslen() and APIS calls such as CreateWindow() with its currespondng wide char version CreateWindowW(). Classes like CString internally handles string data depending on the _UNICODE preprocessor definition. So in _MBCS it will treat the given widechar string as multibyte text only. Definitions of LPCTSTR, LPTSTR etc also changes according to _MBCS and _UNICODE defintions.

No.

First you need to make sure that no user-visible text is hard-coded in the cpp files. You need to extract all strings to a string table[^]. Than you can send your string table to localization companies to translate it for you to different languages.
Also, be aware that translating text is only one part of making software global. You'll need to take care of different calendars, currencies, etc, etc.
