Re: how do i prevent a property sheet from receiving focus? __Cerb28-Jan-04 14:16 __Cerb 28-Jan-04 14:16  Can you make it read-only or disabled? Windows Messages __Cerb28-Jan-04 10:41 __Cerb 28-Jan-04 10:41  How would it be possible to send a "Print Screen" keydown message or whatever? Which message should I send with which params (if possible) Thanks a lot ~Michael Re: Windows Messages Diddy28-Jan-04 11:11 Diddy 28-Jan-04 11:11  You could manually send a WM_KEYDOWN and a WM_KEYUP message, but it's a bit tricky setting up all the flags and what have you. A better way is to use a function for that specific purpose, keybd_event. Look it up in MSDN. Use it something like keybd_event(VK_PRINTSCREEN, ...); If you are trying to simulate a printscreen to do a screen capture and put it onto the clipbopard, a better way is to call GetDc(NULL) to get the DC for the desktop, then grab the bitmap out of the DC and slap it on the clipboard. Re: Windows Messages __Cerb28-Jan-04 11:32 __Cerb 28-Jan-04 11:32  Thanks a lot, just a little more question about it. I want to simulate that printscreen key in a specific window that is minimized... I've tried adding ' :: ' in front of the keybd_event function, however it still does not take any HWND parameter.... Re: Windows Messages __Cerb28-Jan-04 11:37 __Cerb 28-Jan-04 11:37  Found it!!! Thanks a lot man, without that keybd_event function I couldn't have guessed it.

In the MSDN I searched for that error and I found the following. Can anybody tell me where I can find _check_commonlanguageruntime_version function and where to put that? In Visual C++ .NET 2003, this error will be generated when /clr is used and the CRT is not linked into your executable. Any object code generated by the compiler that is not built with /clr:initialAppDomain contains a reference to the _check_commonlanguageruntime_version function, which is defined in the C Runtime Library (CRT). This function provides for an error message if your application is run on version 1 of the runtime. Code generated by the current compiler is not compatible with version 1 of the common language runtime. So, if you compile without the CRT in Visual C++ .NET 2003, you should include a definition of the _check_commonlanguageruntime_version function in your code. As an alternative to using the _check_commonlanguageruntime_version function, you can link with nochkclr.obj, which contains an empty version of the function and does not provide for an error message if you run your application on version 1 of the runtime. To build an application with the current compiler version to run on the previous version of the runtime, use /clr:InitialAppDomain. _L error Binayak28-Jan-04 9:59 Binayak 28-Jan-04 9:59  I was trying to build a atl program in .net, I got this error error C3861: '_L': identifier not found, even with argument-dependent lookup on the line if( lstrcmpiW(szName, _L("Output")) == 0 ) ..............

SQL woes halblonious28-Jan-04 9:33 halblonious 28-Jan-04 9:33  Thanks to those who answered my last message. Now, I've found a way to actually LOOK at the database, and I can connect to the DSN. The only problem is: How do I connect to the actual database that I want. I mean, there's like 6 databases in that DSN, and only one of them is the one I want, the rest are master, model, msdb, etc.... How to I access the one I want. I tried doing an INSERT INTO statement to the table I wanted, but it failed (I can only assume it's because I don't yet know how to specify which database it is). Thanks for any help you can give me. halblonious Re: SQL woes basementman28-Jan-04 9:57 basementman 28-Jan-04 9:57  You have many options: 1)Specify the database in the ODBC DSN 2)Specify the full qualifier in your statements (select * from MyDB..MyTable, insert into MyDB..MyTable...) 3)Do a SQLExecDirect of "use MyDB"  onwards and upwards...  Re: SQL woes David Crow28-Jan-04 10:29 David Crow 28-Jan-04 10:29  halblonious wrote: I mean, there's like 6 databases in that DSN... A DSN is tied to only one database at a time. When you created the DSN through the ODBC applet in Control Panel, you were asked to pick the database. I've used DSNs with both Access and SQL databases, and aside from how the actual DSN dialog box looks and behaves, it's a 1:1 relationship. I may be way off base here. If so, please provide a small code snippet to help clarify the issue(s). A rich person is not the one who has the most, but the one that needs the least.

I'm trying to figure out how to add a toolbar with icon buttons and a combo box below it. To get an idea of what I want here's a picture: http://k1studios.com/images/trav.gif.As you can see I want to have that exact layout but I have no idea how to develope that since I don't have the help of MFC. So if anybody has any idea I would REALLY appreciate it. Thank you, Caleb Re: Toolbar and Combo Box problem Robert A. T. Káldy28-Jan-04 10:05 Robert A. T. Káldy 28-Jan-04 10:05  If you really want to hold buttons and combobox together at one toolbar, you should use CDialogBar. On the other side, the standard approach is to put buttons and combobox to two separate toolbars, that are docked together, as in the Internet Explorer. There you should use CReBar. In both case you can design the toolbar layout in Dialog editor. Robert-Antonio dangers of using typedef in C/C++? Maximilien28-Jan-04 8:11 Maximilien 28-Jan-04 8:11  are there dangers of using typedef in C++ ? I'm cleaning up some old legacy C code, ported to C++, and there are some typedef that are somewhat useless. are typedef only semantic ? I have something like : struct myStruct<br /> {<br /> <br /> }; and somewhere else typedef myStruct anotherName and it bugs me to have to search for files and functions with 2 different type names!!! Maximilien Lincourt Your Head A Splode - Strong Bad Re: dangers of using typedef in C/C++? toxcct28-Jan-04 9:01 toxcct 28-Jan-04 9:01  the useful typedef was with the C to avoid the systematic rewrite of struct keyword in object instanciations like struct MyStruct MyObject. But, as far as i know, even if your typedefs seem useless, there is no danger to let them where they are. If you want to remove them, you'll have to change all the code !!! TOXCCT alias Nicolas C. Re: dangers of using typedef in C/C++? Alvaro Mendez28-Jan-04 9:12 Alvaro Mendez 28-Jan-04 9:12  If anotherName is what's used all over the code, the best thing to do is to rename myStruct to anotherName and get rid of the typedef. Regards, Alvaro "I do" is both the shortest and the longest sentence in the English language. Re: dangers of using typedef in C/C++? Maximilien28-Jan-04 10:14 Maximilien 28-Jan-04 10:14  no, anotherName is used in about 10% of the code; and does not reflect what it is !!! I've removed the anotherName typedef and only use one name in all the code. Maximilien Lincourt Your Head A Splode - Strong Bad Re: dangers of using typedef in C/C++? Jörgen Sigvardsson28-Jan-04 10:32 Jörgen Sigvardsson 28-Jan-04 10:32  In C++ a struct name is a fully qualified type name, where as in C it is not. Hence you see all the typedefs. In C++, a typedef is a type name alias. So if typedef SomeType SomeAlias, then SomeType is fully equivalent to SomeAlias. If you do not want all these differnent names, just search and replace all instances of the typedef names with the struct name. No danger at all. -- He just smiled and gave me a vegemite sandwich.
