You'll probably get more replies, if you asked specific technical questions. Your message is very vague.
However there are a few methods for accessing MS Access from MFC. Personally I prefer using ADO rather than the MFC classes Database/Recordset classes.
Plenty of examples here[^]

Get a copy of Mike Blazcaks excellent book on MFC. It has some very nice samples. BTW the VC IDE can create a skeleton app for you quite easily.

Hello everyone,

Thank you ,
Johnny

One way is
OnStartButton()
{
system(path to your_C++_app.exe);
}
|
|
|
|
|
Thank you!
But what if the path can vary?

i think ShellExe( .....) will help u ,,, use "Open" for this.

The preferred method is to use CreateProcess() or ShellExecute(). The system() function is a hold-over from Unix.

Hi,
I've got a mixed source code project (ADA, C and C++) which I need to compile using a makefile (linking will be done at the ada side). For the C++ and C code I'm using the Visual C++ 6.0 compiler and I run vcvars32 beforehand to ensure that the compiler options are setup. However, the problem I'm having is that when I #include any 'system' header files, e.g. fstream.h, stdio, etc... I get an error saying it can't find the specified file. I've tried including a hardcoded path in my make file to these files but I still get the same error! 
Does anyone know how I can get my makefile to (preferably automatically) pick up these files?
Also sometimes when I reboot my machine the makefile tries to use the g++3 compiler instead of the studio one, what might be causing this? (I'm using VC 6.0 compiler in other parts of the project so I'm trying to keep the number of compilers, languages and libraries down to a minimum)
many thanks,

Hi all
i need to include the library "afxdao.h" with
my app, but when i compile i get the following error
has any one come across this before ?
c:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\Vc7\PlatformSDK\Include\dbdaoint.h(109): error C2011: 'LockTypeEnum' : 'enum' type redefinition
c:\MyApp\Debug\msado15.tlh(228) : see declaration of 'LockTypeEnum'
|

First, the linker does not care about .h files. Those files are handled by the preprocessor.

This is a header file, not a library.

The error is telling you that more than once instance of LockTypeEnum has been found. If you remove the inclusion of afxdao.h, does the error go away, or get replaced with a different error?

yes, the error goes away if i remove the afxdao.h
but i require that header file
i found using
#import "C:\program files\common files\system\ado\msado15.dll" no_namespace rename( "EOF", "adoEOF" ) rename ("LockTypeEnum","newLockTypeEnum")
has solved my problem
thanks anyway

It may very well have solved it, but without knowing more about the application and the problem, it may also have just masked the real problem.

My app creates a CDialog which is displayed in the taskbar. Then I hide this dialog (with ShowWindow(SW_HIDE)) and create a new CDialog. However since I hid the 1st dialog, the taskbar window is also not shown and the new CDialog doesn't display a new taskbar window. What am I doing wrong here? - how can the new dialog display a taskbar window?

CSIDL_SYSTEM is the correct value. It is defined in shlobj.h
You might also try GetSystemDirectory but I'm not sure if that returns System or System32.

It's CSIDL_SYSTEM, and it does exist with the current platform SDK.
If you're running VC6 "out of the box", you might have to use GetSystemDirectory()

#include <strstrea.h>
char szDir[128];
ostrstream strmDir(szDir, sizeof(szDir));
strmDir << getenv("SystemRoot");
strmDir << "\\System32" << ends;
You can string the insertions out in one line. I broke them up into seperate lines because of the horixzontal linitation of this window.
The size of 128 is arbitrary. You could use "MAX_PATH" or "_MAX_PATH" depending on other includes in your program

Not only does this rely upon environment variables, which I consider a bad practice, it does not include "System" or "System32" in the returned value.

Hi,
I have a MSHFlexgrid with a list of names. when you press eg. 's' the first name that starts with an 's' is highlighted and the list scrolls down. If I then press 'a' however, the name is highlighted, but the view doesn't scroll up.
I've tried about every function with "scroll" in it(  ) and even refreshing and 'scrolling' down from the start, but nope...
anybody got some clue on how to solve this?
(in meantime I do keep searching  )
