What I did was to edit my resource.h and make sure that all of my checkboxes had sequential ID's. I then #define'ed CHECKBOX_START as the resource ID for the first checkbox and CHECKBOX_END for the resource ID of the last checkbox. I then built an array of structures that held the data associated with the checkboxes. I could then loop through and get the check states with <br /> for(x= CHECKBOX_START, x <= CHECKBOX_END, x++)<br /> {<br /> SendDlgItemMessage(x, blah, blah, blah<br /> }<br /> I'm going to live forever or die trying! run an executable located in a memory buffer Beer2619-Jul-03 5:27 Beer26 19-Jul-03 5:27  is there a way to run an executable located in a memory buffer, that isn't physically on the disk? This isn't real code, but it will give you an idea of what I am trying to do.

Maybe. But wouldn't it be easier just to write that buffer to a temp-file .exe and execute that one? What are you writing, a virus? Re: run an executable located in a memory buffer John M.

John Re: run an executable located in a memory buffer Beer2619-Jul-03 7:45 Beer26 19-Jul-03 7:45  that's exactly right. Thanks for your superior insight and openmindedness.

Then he's going about it the completely wrong way. He doesn't want to create a new process ("run an executable", which in Win32 implies a .exe file - and since he's already inside a running process it must be a new process he's requesting) - he wants it to run in the current process. Like calling a function within the same process, but an encrypted function. If the requirements are wrong, the end result can only be correct by pure luck. Re: run an executable located in a memory buffer Beer2619-Jul-03 7:44 Beer26 19-Jul-03 7:44  I don't want to allow access to the .exe being written, not even for an instant. It is not for a virus. The fact that you have implied that I could be writing a virus, frankly is insulting, and suggesting it, if I may permit myself to say so, was stupid.

That wasn't a requirement according to your question. You just told you had "executable located in a memory buffer". An executable in Win32 is a PE file. It is not for a virus. Good to know. The fact that you have implied that I could be writing a virus, frankly is insulting, and suggesting it, if I may permit myself to say so, was stupid. I can without problems accept people telling me I insult them. But me asking if you were writing a virus (even that I admit I missed the smiley at the end, why it was obviously impossible for you to know that I wasn't that serious) I think was quite ligit considering how you worded your question. If you choose to think of me in terms of "stupid" that's your choice, and them it's my right to not telling you how you make sure e.g. IAT's are patched and how you *really* get the libraries you need loaded, or just not give any pointer in the right direction. Have a nice day. You cannot insult people!!! Toni7819-Jul-03 10:42 Toni78 19-Jul-03 10:42  Beer26 wrote: if I may permit myself to say so, was stupid. With 9 messages posted, I don't think you can permit yourself to insult other members. For that matter of fact even if you were the guru here, you still cannot call someone's suggestions stupid. Mike's question is very legitimate. I also thought that you were writing a virus. Writing exe packers or decrypters requires certain steps which you could have explained very briefly in your post. Like Mike, I choose not to help you. // Afterall, I realized that even my comment lines have bugs When one cannot invent, one must at least improve (in bed).-My latest fortune cookie Re: You cannot insult people!!!

I wasn't insulting anyone, just stating my own opinion. The germans did not win the 2nd war. I have the right. Re: You cannot insult people!!!

Look at GlobalAlloc() (from MS docs) : "Memory allocated with this function is guaranteed to be aligned on an 8-byte boundary. All memory is created with execute access; no special function is required to execute dynamically generated code." Or, VirtualAlloc( ..., DWORD flProtect ) : flProtect = PAGE_EXECUTE_READWRITE; Enables execute, read, and write access to the committed region of pages. Would probably start with trying to do a simple C function first so you don't need to worry about the 'this' pointer. ...cmk Save the whales - collect the whole set Re: run an executable located in a memory buffer Beer2619-Jul-03 9:11 Beer26 19-Jul-03 9:11  I'm so sorry, I'm still missing a link here. I can not use the HGLOBAL i get from the GlobalAlloc with CreateProcess. It will only accept a path on the disk. What would you suggest as an alternative to get the HGLOBAL into a process? Re: run an executable located in a memory buffer Beer2619-Jul-03 10:13 Beer26 19-Jul-03 10:13  ok, I missed that part about casting the pointer to a function.

Windows Common Dialog controls madErnie19-Jul-03 4:07 madErnie 19-Jul-03 4:07  Weird problem for a VCPP 6 newbie: When my app invokes a windows common dialog, such as "Save As.." or "Open..." dialogs, some dialog controls display foreign language captions and labels. Has anyone had this problem? How did you fix it? Thanks, madErnie Re: Windows Common Dialog controls Anthony_Yio20-Jul-03 16:52 Anthony_Yio 20-Jul-03 16:52  I am not sure about windows common dlg. (Are you talking about FileSaveDialog?) Your problem may be due to your language setting. In your resource files. Check your resource properties and change it to your OS supporting language format. Or to use notepad to change your *.rc manually but try to avoid this as it might corrupt your resource file. Your *.rc should be using this codepage.
