I know what you mean but I only do this when nesting include files - including one header in another. This keeps the headers safe. I don't do this in standard code as I'll see the error soon enough.
Yes, in most projects, the savings amount to milliseconds but in large scale projects this can add up significantly. I have been forced to use a library that is absolutely atrocious in this respect.

Why is it that you can include headers like "afxdb.h" in a zillion files and not get this error?
You can use either an ifdef to include the cpp file only once
#if !defined(_MYCPPFILENAME_)
#define _MYCPPFILENAME_
#endif //def _MYCPPFILENAME_
Or you can use this as the first statement in your header file
#pragma once
There is a macro in vc6 that does this for you. Click Tools then customize then addins and macro files and then make sure SAMPLE is checked. Then open your header file and click tools then macros select sample and then select OneTimeInclude and click run.

I have done what you suggested and it is perfect.
This will save me a lot of time. Many thanks!

I use the macro for this all the time because I prefer the #ifdef solution and it saves me a a few steps...

In a function, I create a font chooer dialog for my user, for which I'm trying to add a callback function, like so:
//create the pointer
LPCFHOOKPROC FontHook;
//create the font chooser dialog
CFontDialog dlg(&LogFont,CF_ENABLEHOOK|CF_EFFECTS|CF_BOTH|CF_NOVECTORFONTS|CF_NOSCRIPTSEL|CF_INITTOLOGFONTSTRUCT,NULL,NULL);
//tell it to hook to the function
dlg.m_cf.lpfnHook = FontHook;
//display the font dialog
if(dlg.DoModal() == IDOK)
{
//blah blah
}
Then, elsewhere in the view I added the actual callback function, like so:
UINT CALLBACK FontHook(HWND hdlg,UINT uiMsg,WPARAM wParam,LPARAM lParam)
{
//blah blah
return TRUE;
}
It compiles fine, but when I try to use the font dialog is gives me an application error:
"The instruction at '0xcccccccc' referenced memory at '0xcccccccc'. The memory could not be 'read'."
It desplays this three times, before quitting out. I figured out it's on the .DoModal line where it's having the issue, I think. It gives me this error when debugging:
"Unhandled exception in Application.exe: 0xC0000005: Access violation."
Can anyone please tell me what I'm doing wrong or forgetting to do?

The problem is to do with your FontHook pointer. To get this working you need to remove the following from your code:
<br />
LPCFHOOKPROC FontHook;<br />
Then ensure that you have a prototype for the callback fn somewhere before where you create your dialog. Prototype will look something like:
<br />
UINT CALLBACK FontHook( HWND, UINT, WPARAM, LPARAM );<br />
What you are doing wrong is creating an uninitialised local pointer in your dialog creation fn and you specify this pointer as the address of the callback fn. In debug mode, items such as un-initialised pointers always get set to 0xCCCCCCCC so that it's easy to recognise them as such.

Thank you very much, that seemed to work. Now, I'm off to figure out how to make do what I want...

Try this instead of ur function write
UINT_PTR CALLBACK CFHookProc(
HWND hdlg, // handle to dialog box
UINT uiMsg, // message identifier
WPARAM wParam, // message parameter
LPARAM lParam // message parameter
);
and then try out if not write back
Thanx

I've got it working now. Thank you for your comment.

In addition to what Phil has already pointed out, by using CF_BOTH, I believe that the hDC member of your LOGFONT structure must also be initialized. Are the other members properly initialized?

They must be, because it seems to work now that I changed that line. Thank you.

hi~
Screen go blank after a certain time of no action from user.
i draw *.jpeg on my dialog.
when my screen go blank and wake up, my drawing on dialog is gone.
so i think it will be ok to call OnPaint after getting WM_POWERBROADCAST,
but i failed to get WM_POWERBROADCAST. plz help me to get how i can get WM_POWERBROADCAST

This shouldn't be necessary.
You should perform all your painting in response to a WM_PAINT message (for a CDialog-derived class, in your OnPaint handler).
If you need to perform some drawing elsewhere, it's typically better to update your state, then call Invalidate to redraw the whole window, or InvalidateRect to redraw only a portion of the window. Windows will then post a WM_PAINT message to your window (if there is an invalid region) once any higher priority messages have been processed.
You should consider any drawing operations performed at any other time to be temporary.

Question: Is it possible to implement Drag & Drop so that Windows (shell) will create a "Copying" files progress dialog during the drop operation?
I have an MFC application that implements asynchronous OLE drag and drop between a TreeView and Windows Explorer using CFSTR_FILECONTENTS/CFSTR_FILEDESCRIPTOR clipboard formats.
With synchronous drag and drop, an hour glass cursor is displayed ... with asynchronous drag and drop, no feedback at all is provided via the cursor (I believe).
It is desired to display a "Copying files" progress dialog indicating the status of the copying operation when my application is the DragSource and Windows Explorer is the DropTarget.
Can anyone point me in the correct direction to get Windows to display this dialog when it is the drop target? Does it require additional clipboard formats? Does it require delayed rendering? Does it require a shell extension?
Any help would be greatly appreciated 'cause I am stumped.
Thanks.

You'll need to supply your own dialog, and have it display the filecopy.avi file.

Thanks David ... I was afraid of that 
I assume I would instantiate this dialog from my IDataObject object when the target asks for the data. Right?
Thanks again.

Yes, if that is when the copying begins.

Hello,
I want to know if there is a WinAPI call ( or some other mechanism ) for getting the CPU and memory usage information from the system? The ideal solution would be to get the above information on a per process basis. Could somebody help me out????
Thanks & Regards,
Gautam.

Not sure about CPU usage but I believe you can get memory usage via PSAPI (on NT).

Hope that helps.

I like that second paragraph:
Although you use the registry to collect performance data, the data is not stored in the registry database. Instead, accessing the registry with this key causes the system to collect the data from the appropriate system object managers.
