Unless otherwise stipulated, you would likely retain ownership of the intellectual property. For safety, however, you should create a contract that clearly specifies this.
(If the creative forces reside in the contractee and you work exclusively for them, even if a contractor, the work would likely be classified as "work-for-hire" and the contractee would own the copyright and intellectual property, but that doesn't sound like your situation.)
Also be aware that any translations are copyrighted separate from the code by the translator. Be sure you get a signed contract assigning copyright back to you in this case.
Anyone who thinks he has a better idea of what's good for people than people do is a swine.

I'm wondering about a behaviour with MFC application on a CDialog concerning the mnemonic.
I always thought that an object(e.g. a CButton)'s
function is executed when pressing ALT+Mnemonic.
Now I saw that the function is executed if the focus is in a non-entry control (like a CButton) without pressing the ALT key.
Is there a chance to avoid this behaviour and only execute the function by using ALT+Mnemonic?

I'm not a 100% sure but I think this is the default behaviour
if the focus is set to a non-edit control.
Maybe you can change this behaviour by overriding PreTranslateMessage,
but I am only guessing...

Correct, it is not supported on those platforms.

Please indicate what problem you are attempting to solve, and we might be able to offer a solution that does not depend on EnumDesktopWindows().

I am trying to write a browser monitor. If i could get a handle to the current open windows then I can decide whether it is a browser , if it it - then look on the window control to look for the site that is currently being viewd.

It would be much easier to write a Browser Helper Object (BHO). There are examples here at CP. You can also Google for more.

Hi all,
I would like to be able to turn off/on the monitor programmatically.
In fact, I can do that with this piece of code:
HWND hWnd = GetSafeHwnd();
::SendMessage(hWnd, WM_SYSCOMMAND, SC_MONITORPOWER, MONITOR_OFF);
The problem is when the mouse is moving, the display is turning on back.
I tried to use a global mouse hook (implemented in a DLL) which is called and enabled by my main MFC application. The hook works great !
Then, in my application, I have this :
InstallHookMouse(); // Install mouse hook which lock all mouse messages
DisplayOff(); // Turn off the monitor
When I move the mouse while the display is turned off, it turns on back. 
Have I to program a mouse filter driver to lock definitively this mouse and then, the monitor will not turn on back (until my application will decide to turn it on), or is there another solution ? 
Thanks.

If you turn the monitor off programmatically, how is it expected to turn back on other than via the mouse or keyboard?

That's right. I badly expressed myself. 
As the same way I can turn off the display programmatically, I will turn it back on programmatically. I don't want the user can turn on the screen. That's why I tried to lock mouse moves, but it does not work.
Any solution(s) ?

Unless you can convince me otherwise, I consider that to be very non user-friendly. If I'm working on the computer and some application decides that the monitor needs to go off and I can't turn it back on by moving the mouse, I would seriously consider removing that application.

Yes, you're right for this point, but my application is targeting PC which displays multimedia messages on screens (LCD or Plasma) and, normally, there are no interactive users on these machines.
My application must turn off/on screens when no messages are displayed in order to save LCD/Plasma life time. My solution works well because, for that kind of PC, there are no users, but I want to develop my application properly, and I cannot accept that the screen could turn on without my application.
Maybe this is not possible on Windows platform to turn off properly the screen. 
The last thing I would say is that I could do that on Atari ST platform, and fifteen years later, I could not do the same thing on Windows platform fifteen years old  ?!! I think this is the progress...
Thanks for your response.

the SC_MONITORPOWER doesn't really turn the monitor off, it only make use of the power-saving feature of the monitor ( just like the screensaver does )

Yes you are right, but my purpose is to use this power-saving feature from my application. I want to be able to turn on/off monitor when I need, and no turn back on of the display when the mouse is moving.
Maybe are there softwares which can do that ? 
Thanks.

CopyFile("c:\\boot.ini","\\\\127.0.0.1\\e:\\boot.ini",FALSE);when I use the copyfile function after I have established a ipc$ connection with the target machine which I'd like to copy file to ,I receive a error code 67(using getlasterror),the error remains even when I change the ip address of the targe machine,and I think there is no syntax error ,what's the reason?

I've not tried this before, so this is just a guess, but shouldn't e: be mapped to a server\share on the target machine? In other words, if e: were mapped to \\127.0.0.1\someshare, then the target would simply be e:\boot.ini. Yes?

Check this article
http://www.codeproject.com/system/hooksys.asp[^]
(Check the code near CreateRemoteThread)
How are you creating you window? on the stack or on the heap?
And what functions are you using to allocate memory?
(Consider VirtualAllocEx family of API)

Thks but i resolve the problem, its a bug of MFC, i resolve with this code (its a test code that i create it)
<br />
CMsnNvHookApp theApp; <br />
<br />
DWORD WINAPI ThreadStart (LPVOID dwThreadId) { <br />
::Sleep(300); <br />
<br />
AFX_MODULE_STATE *ModStat; <br />
<br />
ModStat = AfxGetStaticModuleState(); <br />
ModStat->m_pCurrentWinApp = &theApp; <br />
ModStat->m_hCurrentInstanceHandle = ::GetModuleHandle(NULL); <br />
<br />
AFX_MANAGE_STATE(ModStat); <br />
<br />
theApp.m_hThread = ::GetCurrentThread(); <br />
theApp.m_nThreadID = m_nThreadID; <br />
theApp.m_hInstance = ::GetModuleHandle(NULL); <br />
<br />
CFrameWnd *MainWin = new CFrameWnd(); <br />
<br />
MainWin->Create(NULL,"Prueba"); <br />
MainWin->ShowWindow(SW_SHOW); <br />
<br />
theApp.m_pMainWnd = MainWin; <br />
<br />
theApp.Run(); <br />
<br />
return TRUE; <br />
} <br />
<br />
BOOL CMyApplication::InitInstance() <br />
{ <br />
DWORD dwThreadId; <br />
<br />
::CreateThread(NULL,0,ThreadStart,0,0,&dwThreadId); <br />
<br />
return CWinApp::InitInstance(); <br />
}<br />
<br />

I am practising writting a windows application purely by hand and by using windows API , as I am a beginner in windows programming and want to do some studying.
In almost all the explanations to the provided facilities, I find in the header section such statements as "declared in..., include windows.h", so I thought the facilities would be availabe so long as windows.h was included.
But that immediately proved wrong in compiling.
Yet more embarrassing is the function WinMain, I wrote it with returning type int, as is stated in MSDN, but the compiler(VC 6.0)reported errors for this.
Can you tell me how I can use the API functions and how to handled this problem?
Thank you for any help!

Well it would help if you listed the errors.
Have you tried using the AppWizard to generate a Win32 Application. This will help you to understand what is needed to create a pure Win32 app.
If you want to learn about the make-up of a Win32 app, I recommend this book[^]
