If your are using Windows NT/2000/XP then problem is probably the driver. Most likely an access violation in the driver caused the system to crash. In Windows 2000/XP you can find a dumpfile in the c:\winnt\minidump directory.
There are 2 reasons that the driver might have crashed:
1. You passed some invalid pointer or whatever that caused an access violation in the driver.
2. The driver is bad. I have worked will some of the NI drivers/dll's in the past and this would not surprise me.

Thanks.
How can I explore the dump file (I mean which tools I have to use)? Can I symply find there the parameters I passed to the driver?
Thank You.

You can download the "Debugging Tools for Windows" package from the MS site. IN this package there are some tools (like dbgwin) to view the dump files.
But I personally haven't been able to get any meaningfull info from the dump files.

Hi,
You can use google.com to make a search with the information that you have onto your blue screen. Most of the time, you will find a web page that explain approximatively where the problem is.

Hi All,
Hi How can Achieve the below proposed..
I need to highlight a check button (MFC CButton) when the control gains focus (by keyboard navigation)... The highlight should be similar to the highlight effect of MouseOver.....
Any Help would be appreciated..
Thanks.

Which MouseOver effect do you mean? What should happen if the button gets the focus? 
|
|

Hi,
In a Hello World MFC Application create a CheckBox Button (with no caption and no caption space) on the main dialog form...
When i move the mouse over the control here it gets an orange (inner) highlight - so you can see that the button is in focus..
This does not happen when you tab into the control by keyboard...
run the application and watch how the checkbox looks different when you move the mouse over it - then try to tab into the checkbox - and you can see that no change occurs...
I owuld like the same effect to be applied to the control when the user tabs into the control as if the user moved the mouse over the controll..
I'm sorry I cant be more specific... I'm kindof a newbie with Visual Studio / MFC...

Um, Seems to be an XP feature - Saw my code on win2k today - and there there is no mouseover effect.......
Well ... then my problem is not really important anymore as the solution would only work for Xp users......

Which is better to use
AfxMessageBox
or
CWnd::MessageBox ?
According to the SDK Documentation:
"Use the global function AfxMessageBox instead of this member function to implement a message box in your application.", but with CWnd::MessageBox one can set the caption of the message box.
Anybody got any ideas or comments.

That is probably the point. AfxMessageBox sets the name of the application in the title, so you can see where the message box is comming from.

Depends on what you need to display. You can always call ::MessageBox() for complete control, or use the MFC class members to hide away the details of hwnds, etc. as the situation requires.

I really don't know where else to ask this question but it is more a Windows Installer related question.
I built a simple program with VC6 (that's why in the subject I put not very VC++ related, b/c it is only 0.0000001% related) and I want to give it to someone who is not into computers. To make his job easier I built an installation file using windows installer. Even though, this is the very first time I used windows installer everything works fine. When I run the program from its shortcut in the START->PROGRAMS->MYAPP menu, it won't find the files that the program uses for input/output. The files are there and I know this has something to do with the shortcut, but I really don't know how to fix it. I ran into this problem 2 years ago and I don't remember how I fixed it. The thing is that right now I am pressed for time because I need to send this the day after tomorrow.

Use Innosetup (you can downlaod it for free). In about 10 minutes, you should have your installation file settled up with file extensions registration and shortcuts taht are working fine.

I have the shortcuts and the program runs just fine up to the point where it has to read a file which is located in the applications directory. I think my problem has to do with some registry settings because when a program runs from a shortcut something tells me that it considers as the running directory the shortcut's directory. I really don't have a problem with building the installation file.

OK. Then I would suggest to do the following (MFC):
use GetCommandLine() to retrieve your .exe path (Parse the string for that)
use SetCurrentDirectory to set the .. current directory to the one you have found out.
This should solve the problem.

Until the user opens a file that is not in that directory, and the File Open dialog box changes the current directory.
A more robust way is to get the exe path with GetCommandLine() like you said, and then open the data files from that directory, rather than relying on the current directory, which the user can change at any time.

VSI is not particularly good for creating shortcuts. I got around this by coding my program so that it found out what directory the main exe file was in, and then looked for the data files in the same dir. It fixes the symptoms, not the underlying problem, but it does work.

You need to override the SetTitle() function member of your CDocument-derived object.

i did so,but the string ":1" is still there
