CERT_SYSTEM_STORE_LOCAL_MACHINE.

I have tried both of them - the same problem - this API call returns NULL and "ACCESS_DENIED" error code is returned by GetLastError();

hi all

How can I create a application in VC++ 6.0 that is invisible and that does not show up in taskbar.

I created the application, but it only hides after blinking. How can I overcome that. ?

Thanks in advance

Regards
Shiraz

It sounds like you are talking about ShowWindow(SW_HIDE).

It is hiding only after blinking.

Right. That's what happens with a dialog-based application. Since you did not specify, I erroneously assumed at least an SDI application.

Hi thanks

I got it!
It was because i was using DoModal().
I called creat() in the constructor. made the property of dialog window to invisible. thats all.
Now its working fine.

Thank your very mcuh.

Print a VB form that contains my ActiveX control

When posting, it usually helps to denote whether it is a modal or modeless dialog!

When I do a printout of a VB form from the file menu “Print” option, my custom ActiveX control is not printed. Is it a problem in the VB or am I missing something in my custom ActiveX control?

Please help Cry | :((

This is a C++ forum so I think you won't have a lot of success here. Try the VB forum...

Custom made wizard

Hello !
I'm writing my own wizard. I need to add dynamically new pages to the wizard so it will be a little bit hard to use CPropertySheet and CPropertyPage. I just want to know a good solution to display one dialog in my wizard and then display another one (when the user travels through the different pages).
So how can I 'embbed' my dialog in my wizard ?
Thank you

I think you can add pages to a property sheet dynamically, depending on the situation (with AddPage )

If your wizard is really complex, do it manually, insert "pages" as you go; it's not that difficult to do.

Here's a way to add child dialogs to a dialog : http://www.codeproject.com/dialog/CRHChildDialog.asp

Thanks for your response.
I don't have a big experience with CPropertySheets and wizard mode but I think this won't be possible. Here is what I need:
The first 'dialog' I need to show in my Wizard is used to select several devices that need to be configured. So, at startup I just have one single page in my wizard, all the other pages will be used for configuring the devices I have selected in the first page (!!! but the Next button need to be first in gray and when devices are selected it becomes selectable).
When the wizard is displayed (DoModal) I cannot interract with it from the outside. So if I want to add a page, I need to do it from within the class (so need to derive a class from CPropertySheet).
As I don't have experience with that, I'll ask if you think all these kind of things are possible ??

Thank you

Reading and writing to com ports (even virtual ones) is the same as reading and writing to files.

Sorry for the delay.

If you take a look here[^] on MSDN it describes reading and writing to serial ports.
