Dear All
I have an ActiveX control in Visual Basic (an enhanced flexgrid ocx). I am using this control in an VC++ application (dialog box app).
The control has a context menu, having options like cut, copy, paste etc. This menu is invoked when i right click on the control.
I want to use the cut and paste options using the context menu, to cut and paste data available in the control into the cells of the control.
The problem that I am facing is that, when click on the menu items, the event is raised in Visual Basic, but I want to make that event available in VC++ to move data to and from the Clipboard.
Any help available would be greatly appritiated.
Thanks in Advance...

I have two processes (both written by me, i.e. I can modify them at will). When bot are already running, one (the server) needs to create a COM object, and pass an interface to the other (Client).
My only problem: how do I get one interface (IUnknown) marshaled to the other process?
(*using* a COM object in another process I already tried a few times, but they were always instantiated using CreateInstance)
I *think* I have to register the object in the Running Object Table (ROT), and notify the client that it's now there. However, I never really understood this Moniker business (beyond being, well, a Moniker), and I can't find a default implementation that seems usable out of the box.
is the ROT the right way? What Moniker?
additional info: The client will control the server, but I have some external requirements not solvable through COM, which force me to create the process manually. Also, there should be multiple Client/Server pairs (or even One client with multiple servers) possible, I guess differen monikers could solve that...

I do it like this ...
ServerFunc(LPDISPATCH *p)<br />
{<br />
CMyClass object;
LPDISPATCH lpDisp = object.GetIdispatch(TRUE);
*p = lpDisp;<br />
}<br />
<br />
<br />
#include "server.h"
void foo()<br />
{<br />
LPDISPATCH *lpDisp<br />
ServerFunc( &lpDisp );<br />
IMyClass *pMyClass = new IMyClass(lpDisp);<br />
}
It works for me

The problem for me is: ServerFunc runs in a different Process, so I just can't pass the IDispatch * this way.

I am trying to access the StudentTable in an Oracle database, I have set the data source correctly. There is also no errors reported
after I built the exe file. but when I ran the exe, I can see the messagebox showing the "connectinon to the database succeeds." In the following step, there is
a messagebox with title "Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library" showing "Runtime error ...".
I don't know where is wrong , here is the code, who could tell me where is wrong? Thanks.
BOOL flag=FALSE;
flag=m_db.Open("MyDSN",FALSE,FALSE,"ODBC;UID=user1;PWD=userpwd",TRUE); //m_db is a CDatabase member object.
if(flag)
AfxMessageBox("connectinon to the database succeeds.");
else
AfxMessageBox("connectinon to the database failed.");
CRecordset rs(&m_db);
try
{
if(rs.IsOpen())
rs.Close();
if(rs.Open(AFX_DB_USE_DEFAULT_TYPE,_T("select * from user1.StudentTable"),CRecordset::readOnly))
AfxMessageBox("Recordset has been opened!");
}
catch(CDBException e)
{
e.ReportError();
AfxMessageBox("Failed to open the recordset");
}

Have you single-stepped through the code to see which statement is causing the error?

I am writing software that parses out an RTF file. One of the things I want to do is extract pictures and save them to a file. The following is taken directly from Microsoft's RTF FAQ (version 1.3):
---- From RTF FAQ ---
The picture in hexadecimal or binary format follows the picture-destination control words. The following example illustrates the destination format:
{\pict\wbitmap0\picw170\pich77\wbmbitspixel1\wbmplanes1\wbmwidthbytes22
\picwgoal505
\pichgoal221
\picscalex172
\picscaley172

0002b90002b90002b90002b9000
---- End of Stuff from RTF FAQ ---
I am able to parse out all of the bytes (in this example, beginning 49f2...) and I convert them from their text representation to real bytes (i.e., the character sequence "49" is converted to 0x49), but what I get is not a readable picture.
Here is more detail: Suppose I have a bitmap file. I take the same picture and embed it in an RTF document. I can open up the document in Notepad and view the hexidecimal represeantion of the image. I have also written a program that can read a binary file such as a bitmap and convert it to the text equivalent of a hexidecimal as it would appear embedded in the RTF document. I then visually compare the hex I generated directly from the hex embeded in the RTF file.
The hex from the RTF file is the same as the hex I generate directly from the disk file... EXCEPT for the first several hundred bytes! Each source starts out different, but after a hundred byts or so, each is then the same, so I know my encode/decode should be working.
But why is the hexidecimal of the embedded picture not exactly the same as the hexidecmal of the disk file? According to the RTF FAQ, they should be. What can I do to extract the picture? Did Microsoft do something to encode the first series of bytes for a picture so that no one else can extract it?
I have found this problem with both bitmaps and GIF files. I am using MS Word 95 to generate the RTF files with pictures embedded.

I don't know the answer, but from your question, it sounds like some picture header is being modified. I'd look for specs for your picture format, and manually compare the hex. It wouldn't surprize me if Word was changing something in the headers, but you can't know unless you start reading.
Have your tried other programs that read rtf? There are some free ones. (Open Office comes to mind). Perhaps there is a bug in word95, or it isn't implimenting the same version of rtf as what you are working on.
If you are encoding, can word read your document? How about other programs. If you just want to decode, save some pictures in rtf, decode, and see if they look the same.
Don't forget to extract your pictures with Word again (if you can) to see if it saves the same thing as the origional.
The way you worded your question I suspect your program is working correctly. If your pictures look the same visually, I wouldn't worry about it. If there are visual differences, you are on the right track to solving them.

I believe that it's a OLE Stream that embeds the picture, not a straight picture.

Hi everybody.
I'm looking for a nice algo which I can use for parsing audio-files and extracting tags. The algo should have the possibility to define the structure of the filenames via a mask and wildcards. Several programmes make use of such a method, for example Tag&Rename: http://iserver.hta.fhz.ch/~iasummer/stuff/tagrename.gif
I haven't found a good and free avaiable source code for parsing files like that, so any links or general information would be great!

Are you wanting a masked edit control, or are you wanting to find files based on special characters (in addition to "*" and "?" which are already supported).

me think he want to do the following :
for a filename like
"01-Pink Floyd-The Dark Side Of The Moog-Money.mp3"
he wants to extract the song number, artist, album and track name.
basically, a sscan.

I assume you mean sscanf(). If so, then something like the following would work:
char *lp = "01-Pink Floyd-The Dark Side Of The Moog-Money.mp3",
szNumber[8], szArtist[16], szAlbum[32], szTrack[16];
sscanf(lp, "%[0-9]%*c%[^-]%*c%[^-]%*c%[^.]", szNumber, szArtist, szAlbum, szTrack);

Yeah, sscanf looks like the thing I need. I have to write a programme where the user can specify the structure of a file to get the tags from the filename.
E.g. if you have an MP3 Files with the structure like this:
"01-Pink Floyd-Dark Side Of The Moon_SPEAK TO ME.mp3"
"02-Pink Floyd-Dark Side Of The Moon_breathe in the air.mp3"
The user should have the possibility to enter the mask like this
%t-%a_%s (or <track />-<album>_<song>)
the programme should now parse the filename and set the params for track album and song. I've seen a mask editor in several programmes (e.g. Tag&Rename). If you could provide me with some more codesamples, that would be great (I'm a newbie to C++).
BTW, In a next step, our programme should analyze the filenames and suggest a mask by itself.

I have an MFC application where one of the dialogs can have 10 versions of it on display (multiple instances). I use a member variable to control the latest one called up, but would like this variable set to the current one; i.e. if the user clicks on display 2 I would like to make that one the current display.
Currently the varaible is set to the last one created, how do I set it to the current just clicked.
I know I can use:-
this->m_nCurrentDisplay;
but what event or message do I use.
Regards

how do I set it to the current just clicked.
I assume you are using modeless dialogs ?
you could handle CWnd::OnActivate ( WM_ACTIVATE ) or CWnd::OnSetFocus ( WM_SETFOCUS ) on the dialog, and have a variable in the parent window ( or the class that create the dialogs ) to hold the current dialog pointer ( or hwnd, ... ) .

what are the basic setting we have to do in the Microsoft Visual Studio to run this code?
Create a new and empty Win32 Project located in C:\Programs\MSVC Exercises and set its the Name to Messages1
Specify that you want to Use MFC in a Shared DLL
Create a C++ file and name it Exercise
To create a frame for the window, in the Exercise.cpp file, type the following:
#include <afxwin.h>
class CMainFrame : public CFrameWnd
{
public:
CMainFrame ();
protected:
DECLARE_MESSAGE_MAP()
};
CMainFrame::CMainFrame()
{
// Create the window's frame
Create(NULL, "Windows Application", WS_OVERLAPPEDWINDOW,
CRect(120, 100, 700, 480), NULL);
}
class CExerciseApp: public CWinApp
{
public:
BOOL InitInstance();
};
BEGIN_MESSAGE_MAP(CMainFrame, CFrameWnd)
END_MESSAGE_MAP()
BOOL CExerciseApp::InitInstance()
{
m_pMainWnd = new CMainFrame ;
m_pMainWnd->ShowWindow(SW_SHOW);
m_pMainWnd->UpdateWindow();
return TRUE;
}
CExerciseApp theApp;

It's just all too easy to throw your question/problem over the fence to see if an answer comes back over. Problem-solving skills seem to be scarce. I see too much of the "As long as it works, I don't need to know how, and if it stops working, I can ask around." mentality.
