Re: need help quicky - MFC Christian Graus4-Nov-01 10:37 Christian Graus 4-Nov-01 10:37  You mean create a link you can click on ? Create a static, and when the user clicks on it, use ShellExecute with the link as the property and no path, it will run in the default browser.

It appears another solution has been offered in the meantime.

Saying that it was an undeclared identifier. I need the handle so i can use loadstring. Cheers Peter Re: Get handle to module Nish Nishant4-Nov-01 9:19 Nish Nishant 4-Nov-01 9:19  GetModuleHandle(NULL) will return the handle of the calling process Nish Sonork ID 100.9786 voidmain Re: Get handle to module Peter Liddle4-Nov-01 10:05 Peter Liddle 4-Nov-01 10:05  That Doesn't want to work either i keep getting the error _Module is an undeclared identifier.

Jon Sagara "After all is said and done, usually more is said than done." -- Unknown How do I get the number of physical drives? 4-Nov-01 7:19 4-Nov-01 7:19  Anyone who knows? OBS! I'm not interested in the drive letters, only physical drives. Re: How do I get the number of physical drives? Nish Nishant4-Nov-01 7:56 Nish Nishant 4-Nov-01 7:56  Use GetLogicalDriveStrings first to get the list of logical drives in a buffer. Now use GetDriveType on each logical drive For each DRIVE_FIXED you get as return value increment your hard-disk-count variable. Nish Sonork ID 100.9786 voidmain Re: How do I get the number of physical drives? 4-Nov-01 20:41 4-Nov-01 20:41  One can have several logical units on one physical disk. Re: How do I get the number of physical drives? Nish Nishant4-Nov-01 21:03 Nish Nishant 4-Nov-01 21:03  You are correct. Obviously my method is flawed. Perhaps there is a lower level API to enumerate the physical drives. Good luck! Nish Sonork ID 100.9786 voidmain Re: How do I get the number of physical drives? Mike Nordell7-Nov-01 1:18 Mike Nordell 7-Nov-01 1:18  Using NT, try iterating \\.\PhysicalDrive<n> where "<n>" is 0..n, and CreateFile(). Note that you will probably need to have Admin right for this to work. To discover this basically depends on what Win32 OS you use. /Mike You can accuse Microsoft for anything but consistency and orthogonality.
