Pls tellme in what contains in this folder.
KEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Updates
As observed by me.......

In this folder I am able to see 3 folders
DatatAccess
Windows 2000
Windows Media player

Under Windows 2000 -I have 2 sub folders
SP4
SP5
Under SP4 I have one folder
Under SP5 I have many folders which starts with KB.
Under this interesting I see FileList folder and click to see there are many folders which starts from 0 - 1 or sometimes up to 10.
When I clicked each one of these folders I see .dll as a file name.

I want to know the following things.
What is a file list
What are the subfolders under it.
Why are they numbered.

Can any expert throw light on this as I am confused with this?
Regards
KP

Which is the list of files that are part of that KB article. For example, KB823980 is about buffer overrun in RPC. The files updated for this are ole32.dll, rpcrt4.dll, and rpcss.dll, which are listed under the FileList key.

Either create a CButton object using the BS_BITMAP style, or derive your own class from CButton and do the drawing yourself. The latter solution could for example make use of the IPicture interface to actually display the image.

but how can you do it in a win32 api if you have a dialog box as a resource.
is there another way of doing it without having a class.
with loading a bitmap and then placing it ?

As you surely know you create a button using CreateWindow, specifying BUTTON as class name. Also here you can specify BS_BITMAP as a window style, and then use BM_SETIMAGE to place an image on the button.

I found that using an Icon on a button worked better than a bitmap (but the process is very similar.)

I used the examples in the MSDN library (VC6 version) The SDK-level code I used is something like this:

  hwndMyButton = CreateWindow("button", "",<br />
	WS_CHILD | WS_VISIBLE | BS_ICON | BS_PUSHBUTTON,<br />
	buttonPosX, buttonPosY, ButtonWidth, ButtonHeight,<br />
	hwnd, (HMENU)ID_ButtonID, hAppInst, NULL);<br />
<br />
  hButtonIcon = LoadIcon(hAppInst, MAKEINTRESOURCE(IDI_ButtonIcon));<br />
<br />
  SendMessage(hwndMyButton, BM_SETIMAGE, (WPARAM)IMAGE_ICON,<br />
	(LPARAM)(HANDLE)hButtonIcon);

I later changed to using a toolbar, because that looks more modern than Icons or Bitmaps on buttons!

OK,
You right click on Resource, and then chose insert, chose Bitmap.

IT's ok, if the bitmap is creater than 256 colors, it will not view on Editor, but when you run your app, and load your bitmap, you will see normally.

Thanks

I should imagine the atoi function is what you are after. The prototype for the function is

int atoi(const char *nptr);

There may well be some better way of doing this but I don't know it if there is.

I don't think there is a "ready-made" method to to that!

You will have to manage it within your code. Mostly you would be aware as to which position you would be expecting what kind of parameter... Using that you will have to build your arguments list with all the various data types you use.

Also you could provide option like:

C:\App\MyApp /i:3894 /f:489.24 /s:SomeName

Here when parsing you don't bother about the position of the parameter. You can just check for the "i:" and convert that to int, "f:" and use it as float, and "s:" to string.

Hope this helps.

MSDN:

/* Returns the average of a variable list of integers. */
int average( int first, ... )
{
int count = 0, sum = 0, i = first;
va_list marker;

va_start( marker, first ); /* Initialize variable arguments. */
while( i != -1 )
{
sum += i;
count++;
i = va_arg( marker, int);
}
va_end( marker ); /* Reset variable arguments. */
return( sum ? (sum / count) : 0 );

well, i'm ashamed to ask this... i have a rich edit, i have initialized it properly, i've got the control and value variables here:

<br />
	CRichEditCtrl	m_REditDebug;<br />
	CString	m_REditDebugVal;<br />

how do i write to the rich edit?
m_REditDebug.insertstring or something??
i really couldn't find it!!

thanks for your help!

First you must init
AfxInitRichEdit()

in .h file you declare

CString m_strRichEdit;

with cpp file in DoDataExchange(CDataExchange* pDX) function

DDX_Text(pDX, IDC_RECONTROL, m_strRichEdit);

then you just do like that:

m_strRichEdit = _T("Try");
UpdateData(FALSE);

these steps you can do by wizard.

CRichEditCtrl also has another function

StreamIn: to load data from file to rich edit(MSDN)

i've done all the steps, i've got this function:

void CVentanaDebug::EscribirRichEdit(CString temp)
{
m_REditDebugVal = _T(temp);
UpdateData(FALSE);
}

and when i call it, i get an Debug Assertion Failed! error
any ideas?
thanks!

USE the :::
UpdateData(TRUE)
for CString m_REditDebugVal;
after asigning it a value
like
m_REditDebugVal = " hi how r u ? ";
UpdateData(TRUE);

hoping it will work;

I derived a new class named CMySocket from CSocket.
Then generate another class named CCollectorInfo (in order to store the information of Collector),I defined a CMySocket pointer in this class.
Already included the header file of CMySocket

I got error messages as follow:

--------------------Configuration: SaroTransfer - Win32 Debug--------------------

Thanks of any help!

You are missing a semicolon. It could be in MySocket.cpp before line 22, or it could be in one of the header files that you included in MySocket.cpp
