Now you're just being picky Steve... but you're right of course. 
However, I think the OP got the picture and depending on the OP's level of expertise it may have been confusing to start talking about unicode.

Of course I'm being picky. When you get to my age, it's one of the few pleasures left in life that doesn't cost money or end up causing some kind of muscular spasm... 
I agree that it might have been confusing, which is one of the problems of CP. It's hard to know what level the OP is at (or in some cases, they think they're at), and that makes it difficult sometimes to give the 'right' answer, because they may end up worse off than before.
I did like the thread here[^] where someone else came in and finished explaining it while I was asleep

How can I create an empty DACL?
|
|
|
|

What do you want to do with it (apart from the obvious "put it into a security descriptor") ?
I'm sure there's stuff on MSDN about doing this, usually found by asking pointed questions about named pipes and such which are normally used by services, and the question is generally "why does it work when I run my server interactive, but not when it's a service"....

Hi All,
1). Which is the COM service that creates stub and proxy for out-proc-server COM objects?
2). What makes up the COM frameworks?

Hi,
I need co create COM objects in C# and use them again in C#. I've good articles how to create COM but haven't found anything about how to use them in C# .

First post, so be gentle...
I didn't know where to post this, so I'll start here...
I have a COM DLL that is part of a 32bit executable application. The DLL relies on other files and DLLs to operate. I have a reference in VS.NET 2K5 to the DLL and when working locally, the DLL does exactly as it's supposed to.
Now here's the problem. When I upload my site, the DLL breaks and returns "Error HRESULT E_FAIL has been returned from a call to a COM component".
This could mean one of two things:
1. The COM DLL encountered an error.
2. The COM DLL is nowhere to be found.
I installed the application on our server. I registered the COM DLL. And I can locate the DLL using System.IO.File.Exists. But it's still failing.
So I have a two part question:
1. Can I load the DLL dynamically using Reflection and have the same access to its members?
2. Is there a magic way to register the DLL in the GAC and not break the linkage to its other resources?
I've never worked with COM objects before so my experience is somewhat limited.
Any help on this is GREATLY appreciated!!

I want to send and receive the binary data across systems. The problem I'm facing is, when a binary file is read and it is sent, the binary data will be sent upto the first encountering NULL character. So I'm wondering, how can I send.
Plzzzzz, help me in this issue.
Suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
I was wondering is it possible to monitor all the Active/COM objects as they are being instantiated by programs. I think it should be possible by hooking into the API that is used to get the interfaces to them. I have been trying to figure out which components are missing or not registered in the system but it is just too much pain trying to guess. I have searched on the net but have not found anything useful on the topic.
Thanks

Hi,
I have declared a smart pointer of COM interface globally.
When I call CoUninitialize in ExitInstance it throws an exception.
Because it is trying to release interface pointer twice.
How can I overcome this problem?
I have to declare interface pointer globally.

You are not supposed to call any COM API after calling CoUninitialize.
By declaring a com smart pointer globally, you are making call to IYourInterface-->Release() function.

Hello,
I have recently come across IServiceProvider::QueryService...
and although can use this function, do not know how the
services are created and what creates the SID_ constants.
I have used COM and come across CLSID_, IID_, but not SID_
Would you know the procedure for creating a service, using c++.
I use COM, visual c++ 6.0, c++ .NET 7.1.
Thankyou

Hi all,
In my code I have an IShellFolder object and a relative pidl to one of its subfolders, and I need to get the full pidl to the subfolder. If I use subfolder->GetDisplayNameOf() with SHGNO_FORPARSING and then calls desktopFolder->ParseDisplayName() with the display name I get the full pidl for pure file system and pure virtual objects. But for virtual objects with file system storage (for example “My Music”) it does not work, I get the pidl to the storage (that is “My Computer/Drive c:/Documents and Settinings/…”) and that is not what I want, I want the pidl to the virtual folder, that is “My Documents/My Music”. So, does anyone have any ideas how to get the full pidl to the virtual part of a folder that has both a virtual and a file system folder given its parent and a relative pidl?

I'm working on an excel application with data validation in it. The boss insists we use form controls such as checkbox or radio button. Is there any way to integrate these into an excel spreadsheet through COM Interop? If so, please provide an example or post a link. Also, we need to read the excel spreadsheet back through COM, so the controls need to be accessible later.

Have you ever heard of Microsoft Visual Studio Tools for Office (VSTO)? It allows one to automate Excel documents using .NET (in C# or VB). It supports dragging-and-dropping WinForms controls onto the worksheet. In addition, you can cache arbitrary data (e.g. the state of the controls) within the document and retrieve them outside of the Excel host environment.
For more information: Visual Studio Tools for Office
