I'm not sure why static linking is usually the suggested solution to this problem
Static linking is not always desired, and in many instances impossible (eg MFC extension DLLs).
Properly deploying an application is (IMO) necessary.
It's documented... Deployment (C++)[^]

Can anyone tell me is it possible in Visual Studio to add an icon to system menu that would call a dialog box?
On the other hand I could set up a mnemonic that would work throughout the whole application to call a particular dialog box.
If anyone knows what i am talking about and knows of any way to help please answer.
Thanks
P.S this is for a college project i am doing and want to add in this extra function.

NO !
if you're not patient enough to ask in a forum and wait for the answer, find a chat.
when someone answers your question, you'll get automatically notified by email by CodeProject...
all you can get by providing publically your email address is that someone get it to spam you. it's up to you to edit your message and remove the email.

That wouldn't help, now that you have quoted it

Yes, it's possible.

Yes, you can do that, too.
JennK wrote: alternatively contact me via email @ jonnysmonny@hotmail.com
That probably won't happen.

Take my advice. If it's for a programming class project, don't add anything more than the instructor wants. He doesn't have time to wade through extra crap, and is generally only interested in whether or not you understand the concept(s) contained within the assignment.

It has to be at a very high standard it's my third year project and i really would like to add this in. Can I have a mnemonic without having a menu bar? The mnemonic would call a dialog.
I could just create a button on every dialog linking to that dialog and change it to a bitmap or something but i'd prefer to do it the other way.

If you create an MFC application via ClassWizard (Ctrl+W), you can see how this is done with the About dialog.

I am nearing towards the end of my project do you know if i can still do it.

|

Sure. Why would a project's end be a factor?

Sorry, I said that because i meant i couldn't restart to create the project differently. I suppose i want to know is it possible to set up a mnemonic that will operate throughout the project to call a particular dialog box???

Who said anything about restarting the project or creating it differently?

Yes. They are called accelerator keys (which are often times confused with mnemonics).

Ok great sorry for the confusion... So do you know how to use accelerator keys???
|
|
|

JennK wrote: So do you know how to use accelerator keys???
Yes. Search for LoadAccelerators() and TranslateAccelerator().

Hi
I have used many times calloc().But this time it is going fail.
What may be the reason when calloc() fails(return bad pointer)
Thanx

are you coding in C or C++ ?
|
|
|
|
|
It MUST be C++ as this is the Visual C++ / MFC board 
|
|
|
|
|
here is a scoop : The Visual C++ compiler also compiles C code ! 
|
|
|
|
|
Here's another scoop.
This is the C++/MFC board, C questions do not belong here.
So it's irrelevant whether the VC++ compiler can compile C code.
|
|
|
|
|
ok, and tell me where you ask C question on CP elsewhere that this board ?  
|
|
|
|
|
I'd say the soapbox

There is such a place: http//cboard.cprogramming.com --- Purely 'C'.

CP means Codeproject.
