is that mean everytime I will add some new function and Compile it. It will generate new Interface with differnet version number.

It is your duty to follow the rules.
But you can surely add more functions to the existing interface you created.
I will try to explain the need of not modifying existing functino using a simple example.
Suppose an Application A is using a dll D. Another application A2 is also using the same dll D. Now if the user installs new version of A2 in which the dll D function signatures got changed, then the user can't use application A.
To avoid this situation, people often use version no. in the dll name for ex. MFC42.dll.
Now if you are using COM, you will write new interface if the function signature chanes, without changing the earlier one, so both the applications will work even after installing new versions of application A2.

Hi!
I am trying to add information in an access database but when i try sending the information to the database, i keep getting the error message that the record set is read Only. I expected it to be the default "CRecordset::none" flag but i don't know what the problem is. The database has two table but currently i am using only one.In the appWizard i choose to include the two tables.
Below is the code that i have attached to the "add records" button:
(I haven't finished attatching all the CEdit controls becaue of the problem.) Please Help
void CRegistrationView::OnAddrecords()
{
// TODO: Add your command handler code here
// TODO: Add your command handler code here
// Get a pointer to the record set
CRecordset* pSet = OnGetRecordset();
// Make sure that any changes to the current record
// have been saved
if (pSet->CanUpdate() && !pSet->IsDeleted())
{
pSet->Edit();
if (!UpdateData())
return;
pSet->Update();
}
// Add the new record
m_pSet->AddNew();
// Set the registration(Primary Key) in the new record
m_pSet->m_Registration_Number=m_strNew_Registration_Number;
// Save the new record
m_pSet->Update();
// Refresh the record set
m_pSet->Requery();
// Move to the new record
m_pSet->MoveLast();
// Update the form
UpdateData(FALSE);
}

This has nothing to do with your problem of adding records, but I question your use of comments. Why state the obvious? For example:

m_pSet->AddNew();
Wamuti wrote: // Refresh the record set
m_pSet->Requery();
Wamuti wrote: // Move to the new record
m_pSet->MoveLast();

When? How are you opening the recordset? Are you using a DSN, and if so, is it read-only?

Firstly, thanks. The reason i am having comments is that i am using code from a tutorial because i am not very experianced in MFC programming.
I am using the appWizard and used the recordset type snapshot (Not the Dynaset). I am not sure what DSN means but i have not changed any setting but the book i am using states that on using the snapshot, it should be set as "CRecordset::none".

Data Source Name.
By opening a recordset with two tables, the recordset is inherently read-only.

What should i do to make the database writable because i still need the two tables and access both tables?

Update each table separately.

Does this mean that i don't include the second table while creating the project? If this is so, what will i do while assigning variable for the table i leave out while in the class wizard in the Member variables? Thanks, i am learning alot

You'll need multiple recordsets. The one you currently have is for viewing, while updating the tables would require additional recordsets.

Hi,
How can I run MS-Outlook through code.
Thanx in advance.

See ShellExecute function.

hi,
say for example,
i have created one database application in vc, and i access the MS access database through that.
so first i create a DSN from control panel\odbc datasources.
obviously i have to access that database through the dsn from vc++.
now if i want to install it on my clients machine, i have to copy the files first, then map the DSN and then run the application.
now what i want is, is there any method to automate the creation of DSN, such that, just by a single click on my application, this DSN gets created.
thanks.

There are a lot of setup-generation suites that allow you to start scripts during the setup-process.
One of these is NSIS[^], and its free even for commercial use.
There are many others. Just google.

thanks for your reply.
i shall verify the tool.
but i wanted some code snippet which can create the dsn if i supply the database filename and dsn name.
|

To be honest, I have not the faintest idea what 'dsn' is.
But as you seemed to know how to make one, I showed you a way how to automate that on your client computers.

DSN means Data Source Name(I also have known it today!) . I guess it is the name that C++ will use in connection to a driver to a database.

And DSN's are just about competely useless in todays environment...
Unless you're actually going for lower performance and a more "generic" approach to database work.

Okay, i am interested! What makes you say so
What is the better alternative?
