Dear Randor,
It done the job for static texts. Thank you very much. But the check boxes give COLOR_BTNFACE as background colour if I return it only for the static text.
if (pWnd->GetDlgCtrlID() == IDC_STATIC_DATE)
{
hbr = ((HBRUSH)GetStockObject(NULL_BRUSH));
}
return hbr;
If I return it for all controls, check boxes become black. What to do?
sorry if I am asking silly questions.. I am newbie 
Thanks in advance!

Hi Deepak,

If you are custom coloring multiple controls in your WM_CTLCOLOR handler then it would be better to use a switch statement with a single call to the pWnd->GetDlgCtrlID() function.
To handle both the static and the checkbox try something like this:
int iCtrlID = pWnd->GetDlgCtrlID();
switch(iCtrlID)
{
case IDC_STATIC_DATE:
{
pDC->SetBkMode(TRANSPARENT);
hbr = ((HBRUSH)GetStockObject(NULL_BRUSH));
break;
}
case IDC_YOUR_CHECKBOX:
{
RECT r;
pWnd->GetClientRect(&r);
pDC->BitBlt(0, 0, r.right - r.left, r.bottom - r.top, pWnd->GetDC(), r.left, r.top, SRCCOPY);
hbr = ((HBRUSH)GetStockObject(NULL_BRUSH));
break;
}
default:
break;
}

Dear Randor,
Once again thank you for your great help. That did the Trick! I have one more issue in the static text. It doesn't properly update the text. I think it is writing over the old text in each iteration. I am using a static text to display the current time. In each second it is being updated with new time with the help of a timer. It was working fine before we went for the transparent background. now it seems to be overwriting. Do I need to clear the text before updating it? I mean use some thing like
SetDlgItemText(IDC_STATIC_DATE,_T(" ")
SetDlgItemText(IDC_STATIC_DATE,_T("HH:MM:SS")
Thank you
Deepak

Hi Deepak,
Are you Invalidating the CStatic window after you update the text?
SetDlgItemText(IDC_STATIC_DATE,_T("HH:MM:SS"));
CWnd *pWnd = GetDlgItem(IDC_STATIC_DATE);
if(NULL != pWnd)
{
pWnd->Invalidate();
pWnd->UpdateWindow();
}
Best Wishes,

Hi David,
That has no effect. 
Thanks

Sorry... I somehow misunderstood what your trouble was. 
Now I understand your problem. The parent needs to redraw what was under the child something like this:
CWnd *pWnd = GetDlgItem(IDC_STATIC_DATE);
if(NULL != pWnd)
{
RECT r;
pWnd->GetWindowRect(&r);
ScreenToClient(&r);
InvalidateRect(&r);
}

Hi David,
It is working nicely now.
But I could not set text colour for the Check boxes and Radio buttons. IT shows up as black always regardless of SetTextColor(). Is there any other thing I have to do in CtlColor method for it? Also how to control the colour of Tab control ?
Thank You
Deepak

Hi Deepak,
This tells me that your Windows theme is overriding the colors. You can disable the theme for an individual control using the SetWindowTheme Function[^]. Lets use your checkbox as an example:
case IDC_YOUR_CHECKBOX:
{
RECT r;
pWnd->GetClientRect(&r);
pDC->BitBlt(0, 0, r.right - r.left, r.bottom - r.top, pWnd->GetDC(), r.left, r.top, SRCCOPY);
pDC->SetBkMode(TRANSPARENT);
hbr = ((HBRUSH)GetStockObject(NULL_BRUSH));
pDC->SetTextColor(RGB(255, 0, 0));
SetWindowTheme(pWnd->m_hWnd, L"", L"");
break;
}
We have disabled the theme on this control. It might not be what you want, maybe it will be ugly in your eyes. 
Best Wishes,
-David Delaune

Compiler complained that
Error 1 error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol __imp__SetWindowTheme@12 LoggerDlg.obj
Error 2 fatal error LNK1120: 1 unresolved externals C:\Documents and Settings\deepak.p\Desktop\Logger Working\Logger 13-Sep-2009
From the documentation you provided it says to include "uxtheme.h" but it din't solved the compile error.
Do we need any other includes ?
|
|
|
|

Add:
#include "uxtheme.h"
#pragma comment(lib, "uxtheme.lib")
Or you can add the uxtheme.lib into the project linker settings.

Dear David,
Sorry for the late reply. I was on leave due to some health problems 
I tried your suggestion for the check boxes. But it shows some strange behaviors. Okay I will go with the black letters. But can you please tell me how to change the Tab controls color and button colors?
Thanks in advance

If you have code for creating a cookie, why can't you access it?

i am not that familier with COM.
I googled it : m_piRequest is The IRequest interface pointer ( if am not wrong)
please let me know how to create m_piRequest object before start using it,
do i need to do cocreate instance?

My class which cooperates with MS Acces base looks like below:
In doted place I removed code as a not relevant for case:
Problem is that field mTekst in Acces is set as Memo type. And I wish
to place long report texts in.
My class can't transfer longer text then 255 chars otherwise it shows
an error. Temporarily I deal with it by cutting part of chars.
(Look in function LeftF()) . But a program is not functionally then.

What error? I believe that is a limitation of a Text field in Access. Consider a Memo field instead.

Field in Access is set as Memo.
When is put more then 255 characters an error appears:
"Error: field address (column 2) has changed!"
and shows assertion info
Debug Assertion Failed
.....
File:dbrfx.cpp
Line 287
It happens while program executes Update() function.

The actual assertion is line 287 of dbrfx.cpp in the CFieldExchange::Default() method. You might want to step into that code to see why the field's address is changing.

It seems to me that the error can cause code (line 1008 in DBRFX.CPP file):
............
pFX->Default(szName, &value, plLength,
SQL_C_CHAR, value.GetLength(), nMaxLength);
..........
While debbuging program nMaxLength has value 255, but I do not know where gets it from.
And what can I do.
