no you were not helping...and wake up this is a message board you should only be responding if you genuinely want to help. NO ONE IS FORCING YOU SO IF YOU DON'T HAVE PATIENCE AND ARE FRUSTRATED AT WHAT MAY SEEM TO YOU AS ROUTINE CODING THEN YOU SHOULD OPT OUT OF RESPONDING.

This has nothing to do with homework IT IS A MESSAGE BOARD WHERE YOU COME TO GET HELP FOR ALL!!! (Homework, leisure, work...whatever it may be)

so shut it!

you cannot directly insert chars ( or sub string ) in an existing string, you need to rebuild the a string with the diffeernt parts.

One way would be:

char *m_Str = "Test A";
char *Str   = " of";
char szResult[10] = {0};
strncpy(szResult, m_Str, 4); // "Test"
strcat(szResult, Str);       // "Test of"
strcat(szResult, &m_Str[4]); // "Test of A"

Hide Window's Title Bar?

Hi,
Does anyone know how to hide a window's title bar on a Win32 app?

Thanks in advance!

Use SetWindowLong API call and pass in a modified windows style. Look up the various WS_XXX window styles in MSDN. I *think* (off the top of my head) that you want to remove the WS_CAPTION style. But you may also have to remove others.
Once you have modified the style you need to call SetWindowPos like so:

::SetWindowPos( hwnd_, NULL, 0, 0, 0, 0, SWP_NOMOVE | SWP_NOSIZE | SWP_NOZORDER | SWP_FRAMECHANGED | SWP_NOACTIVATE );

SWP_FRAMECHANGED is the critical part that causes Win32 to refresh the window properly.

You can use GetWindowLong(GWL_STYLE) to get the orginal window style and then modify that accordingly.

Hi,
Thanks for the help but I cant make it work. I can remove other WS_*** styles but not WS_CAPTION. For some reason my window has a caption bar by default. Do you know any possible reasons why?

Thanks again!

You might have to remove other window styles that would also cause Windows to draw a caption bar. The ones that come to mind are WS_MAXIMIZEBOX, WS_MINIMIZEBOX, WS_OVERLAPPEDWINDOW and WS_SYSMENU, but there may be others as well.

In CView::OnDraw(CDC* pDC) or using the CDC *pDC=GetDC() member function

//To Set font color
COLORREF oldCol=pDC->SetTextColor (RGB(0,0,255));//Blue Color

// use font to draw stuff
//.....

pDC->SetTextColor (oldCol);//restore old font color

//the same Way to set back ground color

COLORREF OldbkColor=pDC->SetBkColor (RGB(0,0,0));

//Do your drawing
//......

//if U want to restore BK Color

pDC->SetBkColor(OldbkColor);

For dialog based programs, you will have to override a handler WM_CTLCOLOR. This can change the colors of all the controls on a dialog and the color of the dialog itself.

make a sound event

Hello guys...

Now, i am currently working to develop an application for my school project. My project is making communication between two computer via telephone line using modems.I wanted to enhance my application, and here is my question :

How do I add an event sound to my application? (i.e. when one computer making call to another, and its receive "RING" message from modem and produce sound (ring.wav)

->> I mean, when one computer receive "RING" message (its shows in edit box), i want the computer produce ringing tone.(some sound alert for the user)

Beside that, when the transfer of data is complited, the computer produce sound for this event.

I have surfed the web for examples and tutorials, but majority of them seem to be a little too advance for me. If someone out there can explain the basics to me, along with a simple example, I would really appreciate it.

In your .cpp file you have to include mmsystem.h and link to the winmm library. You can then use PlaySound to play .wav files.

#include <mmsystem.h>
#pragma comment (lib, "winmm.lib")
.
.
.
PlaySound(_T("Ring.wav"), NULL, SND_ASYNC | SND_FILENAME);

http://www.geocities.com/stormcatcher712/sample.html[^]

Its an image of my private project. I'm still a beginner an so I have several questions.

First some word about the structure of my application. It is a single doc app created with the VC++ 6.0 project wizard. At the right site you see the applications docview. It contains a CListCtrl. At the left side I managed to add a CDialogBar with a dialog conaining a CTabCtrl. If you switch the tabs the checkbuttons and texteditfields will be activated or deactivated.
Now my questions:

1) I want to manipulate the CListCtrl from within the CDialogBar dialog. If you push the start button some processing should be done and the result should be displayed in the right View. How can I do this? As I see it there is no way to give the doc or view class access to the dialogbar class and the other way too. Dead | X|

2) Isn't there an easy and simple example of an application that uses register cards and diffent dialogs on every page? You know like the preferences dialog unter Visual C++ -> Project -> Preferences ? Or think about the tiny search program for Windows 95, 98, 2000? OMG | :OMG:

It has all elements I need for my application. Different Dialogs with a propertysheet, and the result of the processing is displayed in an explorerlike Listview. Although it is just a simple application I did not see sourcecode for a similar program.

Thank you for your time and help! Rose | [Rose]

For MFC SDI applications :
((CFrameWnd*)AfxGetMainWnd())->GetActiveView() return pointer to you CView class,
((CFrameWnd*)AfxGetMainWnd())->GetAcviteDocument() return pointer to you CDocument class.

I read "MFC in 21 days", and they mentioned it earlier but I forgot. Sometimes I wonder if I will ever get used to the whole document - view and message concept of MFC. Think about that, there is no member for the CYOURDoc and CYOURView in any class in your whole project.

Thank you again!
