Re: Storing variables in a program John M. Drescher28-Jun-04 16:50 John M. Drescher 28-Jun-04 16:50  I agree this is definitly an area where security is a must and the data must be encrypted. Storing unencrypted values in the registry is not much better than storing them in a file named passwords... John Good registry tutorials? ixcaliber28-Jun-04 10:56 ixcaliber 28-Jun-04 10:56  Does anyone know a good site for learning how to edit the registry from inside a program? thx Re: Good registry tutorials? OBRon28-Jun-04 11:07 OBRon 28-Jun-04 11:07  The CRegKey class is what you want to use: // Read a DWORD from the registry DWORD dwValue = 0; CString csKEY = "Software\\Company"; CRegKey key; if ( key.Open(HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, csKEY, KEY_READ) == ERROR_SUCCESS) { if (key.QueryDWORDValue("MyKey", dwValue) == ERROR_SUCCESS) AfxMessageBox("You read it into dwValue"); key.Close(); } // Write a DWORD to the registry DWORD dwValue = 3; CString csKEY = "Software\\Company"; CRegKey key; if ( key.Create(HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, csKEY) == ERROR_SUCCESS) { if (key.SetDWORDValue("MyKey", dwValue) == ERROR_SUCCESS) AfxMessageBox("You wrote it"); key.Close(); } Thx ixcaliber28-Jun-04 12:10 ixcaliber 28-Jun-04 12:10  Man you folks are awesome! that looks just like what i need... a bitto fanagling and it should be perfect!! thx Using CInternetFile::WriteString() brdavid28-Jun-04 9:19 brdavid 28-Jun-04 9:19  (still stuck I am having a bit of trouble running CInternetFile::WriteString() and seeing results appear on the server file I am trying to change. Here is a snipet of code that open the HTTP Connection, then opens a CInternetFile pointer then sends a request to write data (I hope). "strData" is the data I am sending. pServer = session->GetHttpConnection("www.myserver.com", 80, "username", "password"); pFile = pServer->OpenRequest(CHttpConnection::HTTP_VERB_POST, "/folder/file.txt"); pFile->SendRequestEx(strData.GetLength()); pFile->QueryInfoStatusCode(dwRet); pFile->WriteString(strData); pFile->EndRequest(); Does anyone see any problems with what I have here? I am kinda basing this off an example I found but the file I am trying to write to is not affected. The permissions on the file are set to a+rwx but I am wondering if there is something in the code I am missing or perhaps on the server. I can read from the file just fine. I just can't write to it. Thanks! Re: Using CInternetFile::WriteString() palbano28-Jun-04 9:36 palbano 28-Jun-04 9:36  You need to find some information on HTTP and read about it. You can't update a file on the server using HTTP. You have to add that capability by introducing the behavior on the Server. There are a number of methods for doing this. You need to study the problem. "No matter where you go, there your are." - Buckaroo Banzai -pete Re: Using CInternetFile::WriteString() brdavid28-Jun-04 9:51 brdavid 28-Jun-04 9:51  I understand. This was something I questioned myself thinking I shouldn't be able to update using HTTP but perhaps I could using FTP or some other means. I tried looking for up whatever information I could on CInternetFile but in everything I see, I get the same example and it tells me what I have done should work, but I believe you. I don't think it's that easy. So, in general, I'm a little stuck on what I should be reading. Do you recommend any articles? Sites? Thanks! Re: Using CInternetFile::WriteString() OBRon28-Jun-04 10:00 OBRon 28-Jun-04 10:00  If you are attempting to create a file named file.text within your /folder virtual, you can do that with your code by making 2 changes. First, change the HTTP_VERB_POST to HTTP_VERB_PUT. Second, you must ensure the virtual directory named /folder on your web server allows write privileges. But you would be better off not allowing write access to a virtual and using a post to an ASP page on that virtual. Within that ASP page, you could take the posted data and create a file. Re: Using CInternetFile::WriteString() palbano28-Jun-04 11:03 palbano 28-Jun-04 11:03  Yes my previous post was incorrect. Since IIS4 the PUT command is supported. I don't know about other servers. There is good information on that here: IIS HTTP PUT "No matter where you go, there your are." - Buckaroo Banzai -pete Re: Using CInternetFile::WriteString() palbano28-Jun-04 11:33 palbano 28-Jun-04 11:33  How rude of me!

I can't find it here and thought this was were I downloaded it. Does anyone know where this application is? Thanks! Re: VC++ Tool for building AfxMessageBox John R. Shaw28-Jun-04 18:51 John R. Shaw 28-Jun-04 18:51  You mite be talking about the XMessageBox By Hans Dietrich (@codeproject). There was a messagebox (@codeproject) that used RTF to display the message using multiple colors, but I do not seem to be able to find that one. INTP Re: VC++ Tool for building AfxMessageBox brdavid29-Jun-04 0:41 brdavid 29-Jun-04 0:41  nope. This was an actual application that would appear in the Tools menu that pops open a dialog box and lets you build an AfxMessageBox/MessageBox by simply filling in the form. It would then give you the code you must place in your program for the MessageBox you built.

I can include it in the first source file I create, I can add a form to the project and use it in the form code file, I can link these things together, etc. If I start a Net project I can add a generic C++ class and use <complex> therein, but any time I ntry to link this file to anything I get link errors. If I use <complex> in a form's code, or any other type of managed file, I get these same errors. I can copy code from another such project that I download, which works just fine, intop my own project, and it fails.

You will get some linker errors. Remedy is you need to rebuild your static lib with VC.NET.
