All MFC apps have this built in (for sedning the active document), although it doesnt tend to work the way you want. For a quick test add a menu item with the id of ID_FILE_SEND_MAIL. The problems I found with the standard implementation is that if your document is modified then it gets saved as a temporary file (with a .tmp extension) and then sent attached to the e-mail at that point. I re-wrote the function based on the default CDocument::OnFileSendMail as follows. Its a bit tricky as it handles multiple attachments etc, but if you need to use it, it will get you going a lot quicker.

[edit]
If you want the example code, mail me, I removed it to keep the forum speed up
Alctuall, I tried to remove it several times. If its still here, its a forum bug

Add the follow stuff and you can send the current document.

Add the following ON_COMMAND and ON_UPDATE_COMMAND_UI commands to the doc.cpp

BEGIN_MESSAGE_MAP(CReportDoc, CDocument)
  //{{AFX_MSG_MAP(CReportDoc)
  // NOTE - the ClassWizard will add and remove mapping macros here.
  //    DO NOT EDIT what you see in these blocks of generated code!
  //}}AFX_MSG_MAP
  ON_COMMAND(ID_FILE_SEND_MAIL, OnFileSendMail)
  ON_UPDATE_COMMAND_UI(ID_FILE_SEND_MAIL, OnUpdateFileSendMail)
END_MESSAGE_MAP()

Add this menu item to the File menu:

ID: ID_FILE_SEND_MAIL
Caption: Sen&d...
Prompt: Send the active document through electronic mail\nSend Mail

Run your application, open a document, and select Send from the File menu.

Hope this helps. Smile | :)

convert char to int

I know that atoi converts a string to an integer, but what about char to integer -- is there a function out that that does

intDay = atoi(strTime[1]);

correctly

(where strTime is of type std::string)

thanks,

tim

Setting the fonts of all controls on a CFormView

Hello all,

Here's the deal Smile | :)

I'm trying to set the font of all the controls on a CFormView to a larger font. I don't want to have to create an ID for each control and manually do a SetFont() on each. Is there an easier way to this?

Thanks.

Click on your form in your resources.then in the property of your form change the font then all your control have the same new font.

I have a form view and there are some controls,I need something like "Anchor" property.I mean when I change the size of forms my controls always have the same distance from left or right.
How can I gain this?

how to determine current authentication?

AJ Weber5-Mar-02 2:39

AJ Weber

5-Mar-02 2:39

Anyone have a code snippet that returns a string of the current NT Domain where the user authenticated? I know there's a utility in the NT/Win2K Resource Kit that returns something like:
MYDOMAIN\myuser
in the output...but I'm not sure where they're getting that info from (where "MYDOMAIN" is the name of the domain the user logged-in to, and "myuser" is the username that they used).

Also, if anyone knows how this translates when moving to AD, I'd appreciate any info.

Thanks in advance!

That's the easy part. Now how do you determine where the user authenticated? (i.e. local host, NT Domain, etc.)

I need the "context" of the user's authentication.

Thanks for the reply...good quote...

--AJ

PS: I see a "GetUserNameEx" for Win2K and later...it would do what I need (I think), but I need some kind of compat. with NT4 and probably Win98 as well.
