You can't write a C++ program using VB 5. VB is for creating Visual Basic applications, not C++ programs.

While this is obviously impossible, a bigger question would be, why on earth would anyone use VB5 at all ? I mean, even VB6 is a dead language.

Try something like this in C/C++...
int main (int argc, char *argv[])
{
int vb = *system("VB5");
echo(vb->convert(150, "binary", "hexadecimal"));
}

Unfortunately, it's more like "mmm... money" right now, but I so hope to get back on track with it. It's profoundly more fun than web development IMO.

okay, the money helps, but enjoyment came first!

I'll second that. I suppose web dev could be worse (I'm not digging ditches at least), but it's not where my heart lies. I guess I need to win the lottery to hurry up and get back on track.

Have you tried strtol()?

Is there a way to get the list of filenames that are copied? I have a need to keep track of all the file names that are copied using ShFileOperation.
Thanks

Off the top of my head, you could try the FindFirstFile()/FindNextFile() pair using the same file pattern passed to SHFileOperation().

You can use of a counter when you want to copy files.

I noticed that in some applications that I've written the CPU is overloaded:
- on a single core CPU is occupied ~95 - 100 %
- on dualcore ~ 48 - 52 %
Can this be prevented?
In VC++ 6 please...

Probably, but not until you figure out what is consuming the CPU.

My app try to read data from a slow COM port. While finishing it's job, it's making 130.000-150.000 attempts to read, only ~700 succesfully. This is the mess I'vewritten.

Rather than polling, it would seem more efficient to let the COM port tell your app when it has data available to read.

So that others may benefit from your discovery, would you please share your solution?
