Take a look at MAPILogon(). Its parameters govern whether to use an existing session, or create a new one.

i don't want a dialog box to be displayed..
logon_ui does that right??
and...
the only problem now is..
it doesn't work out if the outlook window is not opened..
how to solve it..i tried using new sesion also..anddd..logon ui also..
it doesn't work!

Then use:
MAPILogon(0, "Microsoft Outlook Internet Settings", NULL, MAPI_NEW_SESSION, 0, &m_lhSession);

even when use the new session..
am able to read the mails only one at a time!
and also....
in the MAPIFindNext function ....
the fourth parameter being the pointer to the message identifier seed..
i'm [passing as Nul in the beginning to read the first unread mail..
how should i use it later??

What is the return value of MAPILogon()?

the return value
is
MAPI_LOGON_FAILURE ..integer value is 3!

Because there is no loop. How would you expect it to read more than once?

Make outlook the default mail client (either from Internet Explorer -> Programs -> Email -> Microsoft Outlook, or from the registry HKLM\Software\Clients\Mail\(Default) = "Microsoft Outlook") and then try again

How to handle right mouse button click in menu? (like "favorites" menu in IE)

hi,
I've problems with those two funcions they fails giving me error code number
1813 The specified resource type cannot be found in the image file.
and they're used here.....
wclass.hIcon = LoadIcon(hInstance,MAKEINTRESOURCE(ICON));
.... and here ....
case WM_CREATE:
hInst = (HINSTANCE)GetWindowLong(hWnd,GWL_HINSTANCE);
hMenu = (HMENU) LoadMenu(hInst,MAKEINTRESOURCE(MENU));
hMenu = GetSubMenu(hMenu,0);
MENU and ICON are defined as resource but I can't explain why the two funcions above fail, maybe it's due to MAKEINTRESOURCE? is there another way to load resources?
thanks in advance

My first thought is that you are having an EXE/DLL instance handle problem. To double check, you
could use GetModuleFileName to double check which module is being pointed at by the hInst. You can
then double check that your resources are really there, and not in another module of the process.
I would also pick better names than ICON and MENU. I assume you just put them in your post rather than
in your code?
Iain.

how to check if resource are in the module of the process? for Icon I succeded in, no way for Menu..... names are called ICON and MENU for faster writing in the post,
thanks

Dear friends,
In my simple dialog based application i placed a rich edit control.
I also derived my custom class from CRichEditCtrl:
CMyRichEditCtrl: public CRichEditCtrl { ...
I want to get EN_CHANGE notification whenever there is some text typed in the box. I am successfully getting it 
But the problem is that i want to capture this EN_CHANGE notification in PreTranslateMessage() of my Main dialog class or my custom CMyrichEditCtrl class. Very strange that this message is not appearing in PreTranslateMessage() of either classes.
Can anyone tell me whats the problem.
|

|

There is no such message as EN_CHANGE. You need to look for WM_COMMAND, with a WPARAM of EN_CHANGE, and the right window handle in LPARAM.

Steve
I have tried the following code after calling the SetEventMask with ENM_CHANGE ored with the previous mask.
<br />
void CMyDialog::PreTranslateMessage(MSG *pMsg)<br />
{<br />
if (pMsg->message == WM_COMMAND && HIWORD(pMsg->wParam) == EN_CHANGE<br />
&& (HWND)pMsg->lParam == m_reObj.m_hWnd)<br />
{<br />
TRACE("EN_CHANGE received\n");<br />
}<br />
}<br />
But this doesnt work, i even tried to replace the above condition with this
<br />
void CMyDialog::PreTranslateMessage(MSG *pMsg)<br />
{<br />
if (pMsg->message == WM_COMMAND)<br />
{<br />
TRACE("EN_CHANGE received\n");<br />
}<br />
}<br />
But still no luck. I tried to subclass the control with a custom rich edit class and setup the message handler for EN_CHANGE and Voala i was receiving the message in OnChange() but i am unable to receive it in my PreTranslateMessage so what is wrong here.
Regards

Hi!
There is a function in CBitmap class, LoadBitmap(). However, it only takes resourceID as a parameter i.e it only attaches that bitmap with CBitmap object which is present in the resource.
I like to attach a bitmap to CBitmap object, which is not present in resource, but is in some bmp file. How can i do so
|
|
|
|
|
Try this
HBITMAP CYourClass::LoadBitmapFromFile(LPCTSTR szFilename)
{
HBITMAP hbmp;
hbmp = (HBITMAP)LoadImage(NULL, szFilename, IMAGE_BITMAP, 0, 0,
LR_LOADFROMFILE | LR_CREATEDIBSECTION | LR_DEFAULTSIZE);
return hbmp;
}
