Yes, as a matter of fact, I am.
Here is the dilemma.
I want to know if a process is running on the local or a remote machine.
I use the PDH helper library to enumerate the 'Process' object list.
However, this text 'Process' is not the same on foreign language systems!
In French, you need to use 'Processus'. Probably something else in German, Italian, etc.
So, using perhaps remote registry connection, I want to discover what NAME to use for the process list so I can turn around and pass the correct text into the PDH functions. I am pretty sure the correct text is stored in the dynamic data hive of the registry, where the performance data is stored.
Can you perhaps provide a sample of enumerating or traversing the registry performance counters and interpreting the names of the 'objects' that can be passed to the PDH functions?

 What? Any arbitrary idea? Could you be more specific? What is it that you seek help on?

Create an app that lets me enter a database name for a db that exists somewhere on the network, but known only by filename, which returns a valid connection object without me having to specify it when I want to access it. Let it advertise its schema, as well, so that my app doesn't have to know in advance what fields and tables I have to construct; they should be constructed dynamically when I connect. Assume that I'm a manager, and therefore clueless.
I know that's not an acheivable goal; the spec isn't even realistic. But you sound like a student trying to find a final project worthy of your skills. The future of our industry is going to rest in the realm of "seamlessness." Non-technical people are going to expect us to produce products that they can use without extensive technical knowledge, that extend their limited PC skills to business processes and objectives. Find a business process that is currently being done badly, and do it in a way that makes it brainless. Supply chain management is one area that comes immediately to mind. Most of it is done using paper and pencil, plus a lot of emails and phone calls. Create a stock replenishment system that analyzes sales patterns and automates reordering product.
CRM, Customer Relationship Management software is also big right now; when is the last time you called Mr. XXX? I once read a book, by Robert Heinlein, I believe, where a manager had what was called a 'Farley file' for every visitor. When that person visited, he'd punch up his file, and it would display everything he knew about that person, enabling him to ask about the wife, kids, job, favorite foods... What a great idea, yet it still has yet to be implemented by anyone.
There's a couple of ideas, just to get you started. I'm sure you'll think of more. Hopefully you'll publish whatever you do here so that the rest of us can learn from your efforts. I think I could come up with some more ideas, but it's late...

I would find an article on cross browser client scripting and css styling very handy. I've mostly worked on company intranets where the browser is standard (ie) I think its about time I learnt how to cater for other browsers. There seem to be lots of quirks, workarounds, fixes, css oddities between different browsers that need to be catered for.

This is scandalous to ask but what base level of browser are you looking at?
An article on CSS and JS for IE5+ and Netscape 6+ will be very different from an article that also has to cover Netscape 4 and IE4. There is a big leap between the 4th and 5th (or 6 if you are Netscape) generation of browser.

I'm mainly interested in the latest generation of browsers e.g. Netscape 6+, Opera, Mozilla. Currently code against Internet Explorer 6. Are there still fundamental differences in the Javascript and CSS environment in the latest generation of browsers? I would hope not.

The DOM and manipulation of it by JS is pretty standard now. What works in Netscape 6 works in IE6 and Mozilla. Though Opera is noteably lagging behind in this regard. Saying that it's market share and future market share seem too small to worry much about it (it gets enough right though that most manipulations you want to do will work).
CSS still has a way to go, though it is a lot better than it was with the 5th generation line.
I will see if I have some time to put together an article. If anybody else wants to help then speak up please.

ok, so I have heavily invested in x-10 hardware, and purchased the HAL2000 Voice interactive control software, which all BTW works great, and fills my tech-junkie needs
as well as Energy Auditing/conservation goals.
So i'm customizing the hal2000, and playing vith voices and macros for action etc.
When it dawns on me that I need a talking head, an avatar, a face to sync with the
speech responces the computer gives. give this puppy some personality !
I've done some minor web searching, and mostly what I see are sophisticated, EDU type projects that address the many issues of creating a truly sync'd believeable talking head.noteably: http://mrl.nyu.edu/~perlin/facedemo/ and http://mrl.nyu.edu/~perlin/head/
Two very awesome examples of the work being done. worth the trip to view their work.
I believe at NYU all the pieces are there to do what I want to do, but it's a streatch for this HTML coder.. I need a simple to use, perhaps simple to skin (wouldn't it be great to have your favorite personality read yer e-mail to ya?) windows app or web page rendition of a talking head, that moves the lips via the sound it "hears" and maybe does facial movements based on a text file that I can have the system write lines to as part of the macro's I am already editing in hal2000.
I'm thinking along the lines of a bot talking to you as in RTCWolvenstein.
not totally sync'd but one can believe in it.
I CAN have the macro's in hal2000 write out a file, or append a codeword, that could be used to cue a facial expression if read by this proposed avatar. I would love to have a team of us to build it and show it to the HAL/x-10 folks too.
If you haven't seen it HAL -HomeAutomatedLiving.com is a pretty good out of the box system, definitely can control the x-10 and more with ease, and with imagination in building macros can be very interactive Speech and actionwise.
not that it matters, but I named mine Sweetie as the attention command of "computer"
was just too trekkie, but mostly the phenom was hard for the system to recognise by the
system, (spelled "sweet E" in the command line werks perfect every time)
and so you can see how it would be cool to have a face to put the voice to so-to speak.
I know it can be done rather simply, and will continue to struggle with the project
I'll post what I get here, do I have any of you on the edge of your seat ?
Thanks for taking the time to read, happy holidays !

Hi All
I am developing a corporate hot spot project that needs to Plug and Play IP address. Hence when a machine (with Static or Dynamic IP address) needs to join a wireless network it should get (IP, subnet, Gateway, and DNS) information from the wireless network.
So anybody could help me with the idea behind this???
Note:-
1- I want to bypass the static address of the Machin joins the wireless network.
2- Is there somthing which is called Address Request Protocol (ARP) that works after booting the machine???

Could aneone please provide some "Call Centre Management" Project on immidiate basis. Dude I need to submit it fast. 
Nikhil

Humm, do you mean a call tracking system in MS-project or ?
I worked in a global technical call center, we had in house "systems" for
call/escallation tracking, and another system for what is now called a knowledge base.
these can be as simple as a form filled in by the tech in some DB even lotus notes worked so the ticket can be opened appended by other techs, and each ticket assigned a
reference number to give the customer and priority status, and open closed escalated status for reports run daily/hourly.
The techs used inhouse web pages for previous issues that would be common questions by callers -searchable, and even canned "blurbs" of step by steps or FAQ's, online manuals that could be cut and pasted into e-mails to the customer.
We eventually moved to knowledgebase system, that provided the functionality to both customer and tech, and linked the two together if the customer could not find it online, the tech could push it to them. Big bucks, and a team effort to implement, not to mention the staff built the "solutions" and a whole hirearchy for publishing the completed text/doc/faq to the live KB. if you're in a large co, Siebel and Primus come to mind, they have whole integration teams, and help map out the company proceedures, and will even deal with content for a price. We just bought the package and tech support, and support for customization, we developed the content and training and customized it ourselves.
What specifically are your requirements ?

Hi,
I'm coding a simple 'chocolate vendor'. You know, one of those machines where you insert money into a machine and receive a chocolate bar of your choice 
It's one of those funny university projects that's been set to me and since I'm a beginner when it comes to c++, I was wondering if any of you experienced guys could point me in the direction of a tutorial that could help me complete this?
It only needs to be a simple, text based machine. Most likely enter money into the machine, choose a selection of 4 different chocolate bars and then receive a message that the chocolate bar has been purchased with the relevant price deducted etc.
It would be great if any of you guys could help me out.
Thanks.
-Tyler.

It looks trivial. Just use C++ standard libraries. A couple of cin and cout and you are done

Hi, some months ago I downloaded the source of the UtilityLibrary. Unfortanly I lost it  I now noticed that the sourcecodes and articles are deleted from the code project. Is it still posible to download somewhere the source from the UtiltyLibrary ? The articles aren't the really problem, thanks to google's cache.

hello,
Thank you for attending my request.
I got a problem while I am rotating a 3D rendering scene using mouse,
ie by dragging mouse on screen .
I am using following formula for rotating the picture along x and y axis
m_angle1 -= (xx1 - xx2)/3.0;
m_angle2 -= (yy1 - yy2)/3.0;
glrotated(m_angle1,1,0,0);
glrotated(m_angle2,0,1,0);
xx1 ans yy1 are previous points on screen
xx2 ans yy2 are current points on screen
Rotation is happening correctly in one axis but not happening correctly in other axis. IF you have solution please give me.
regards,
vijay.

I have these excerpts from my code:
Is little bit more complicated:
WM_CREATE:
GetWindowRect(hMainWnd, &rw);
pc.x = (rw.right-rw.left)/2;
pc.y = (rw.bottom-rw.top)/2;
SetCursorPos(pc.x,pc.y);
#define BLOCKRANGE(a) if(a < - PIPE2-EPSILON) a =-
(PIPE2-EPSILON); \
else if (a > PIPE2-EPSILON) a =
PIPE2-EPSILON; // blocks the
range of angle to straight up/down
struct V3{
float x,y,z;
};
struct M4 {float m[4][4];};
class Camera:
{
V3 _angles; //euler angles (azimuth, elevation and roll)
V3 _lup; //up vector
V3 _lside; // side vector
V3 _lup; // up vector;
V3 _lpos; // camera position in space
void AnglesToDir()
{
REAL CosAz = COS(_angles.y);
REAL CosEl = COS(_angles.x);
REAL SinAz = SIN(_angles.y);
REAL SinEl = SIN(_angles.x);
REAL CosRl = COS(_angles.z);
REAL SinRl = SIN(_angles.z);
_ldir.x = SinAz * CosEl;
_ldir.y = SinEl;
_ldir.z = CosEl * -CosAz;
_lup.x = -CosAz * SinRl - SinAz * SinEl * CosRl;
_lup.y = CosEl * CosRl;
_lup.z = -SinAz * SinRl - SinEl * CosRl * -CosAz;
_lside = VCp(_ldir, _lup);
}
void Rotate(REAL a, REAL e, REAL r)
{
_angles.y += a;
_angles.x -= e;
_angles.z += r;
//ROLLPI(_angles.y);
BLOCKRANGE(_angles.x);
AnglesToDir();
}
}
static M4 MLook(V3& eye, V3& fwd, V3& up, V3& side)
{
M4 mret;
mret[0][0] = side.x; mret[1][0] = side.y; mret[2][0] = side.z; mret[3][0] = 0.0;
mret[0][1] = up.x; mret[1][1] = up.y; mret[2][1] = up.z; mret[3][1] = 0.0;
mret[0][2] = -fwd.x; mret[1][2] = -fwd.y; mret[2][2] = -fwd.z; mret[3][2] = 0.0;
mret[0][3] = 0.0; mret[1][3] = 0.0; mret[2][3] = 0.0; mret[3][3] = 1.0;
mret *= MTranslate(-eye.x, -eye.y, -eye.z);
return mret;
}
then you do:
void Your_RenderScene()
{
Camera cam;
//position
cam._wpos.x= YOUR_XPOS;
cam._wpos.y= YOUR_YPOS;
cam._wpos.z= YOUR_ZPOS;
//rotate
POINT pct;
GetCursorPos(&pct);
int dx = pct.x - pc.x;
int dy = pct.y - pc.y;
cam.Rotate((REAL)dx/128.f,(REAL)dy/128.f,0);
SetCursorPos(pc.x,pc.y);
// transform
cam.AnglesToDir();
M4 tm = MLook(cam._wpos, cam._ldir, cam._lup, cam._lside);
glPushMatrix();
glLoadMatrixf((REAL *)&tm);
//////render your object here
glPopMareix();
}
