hi thanks for your reply.I have one question is this function run without the control of the parent application(from which we run this).
Thanks

yes, ShellExecute() is the API called when you double click on the icon of a programme to start it. when doing so, is your program dependant of explorer.exe ? no.

Well, technically the drive is in use. See if this is of any help.

Where you want to show this preview on the main dialog or other dialog

on the same dialog.

So just add a static control, with the SS_BITMAP style, to your dialog's template.

well sir, i did the same. but the static control does not display the bitmap image that i specify. However, is able to display the system icons (like Question mark Icon, or an Information Icon) .
i really dont know what mistake i am doing.

CStatic has a function SetBitmap(that needs to hbitmap) but before it set Type of preperty window to Bitmap

And without seeing a relevant code snippet, neither do we.

But I suggest use of foreign dialog instead same dialog you insert a CDialog to your project and show preview on that dialog if you use of this way you have more control for example you can move this window without any work or change size of show image on the dialog or insert controls to this dialog for control picture,anyway if you want to use this way on the codeproject is more articles
for example search for 3dmax,you can find an article in this article you can see behavior like 3dmax window);)

no, i dont want to have much features for the preview. i just need to show a thumbnail preview of the image icon selected. i dont want to provide the scaling options either. how can i do it???

One good way is David Crow answer other way is use of WM_ERASEBKGND for show preview of image

Not problem I think its easy for you but if you have problem and I can help you you can ask;)

still cant get it work.  below is the sample code snippet that isnt working for me.
<br />
CStatic m_ImagstBox[5];<br />
<br />
m_ImagstBox[i].Create(_T("BMP"),WS_CHILD|WS_VISIBLE|SS_ICON|SS_CENTERIMAGE|SS_SUNKEN,CRect(l,50,r,100), this,1001+i); <br />
<br />
m_ImagstBox[i].SetIcon(::LoadIcon(NULL,MAKEINTRESOURCE(IDI_BMP)));<br />
in the above code, IDI_BMP is the id of the icon that i want to display. but i dont know why it is not working. if i specify something like IDI_INFORMATION, then it displays the information icon in the static control.
i even tried the SetBitnap function, to display a bitmap instead of an icon. but could not get it work. below is the sample code that i had written.
<br />
m_st[i].SetBitmap(::LoadBitmap(NULL,MAKEINTRESOURCE(IDB_BITMAP_HOME)));<br />
i am new to MFC and i am sure that i am doing a mistake some where in the code. can u please point out where i am doing the mistake?

You have two ways create CStatic on your code or insert Static control of ToolBox;).
But your problem check this code
m_ImagstBox[0].SetIcon(::LoadIcon(AfxGetApp()->m_hInstance,MAKEINTRESOURCE(IDI_BMP)));
And same For SetBitmap

oh yes, now its working. I have now learnt something from that. thank u.

I have this code and it compiles without problems in my VC++ (2003):
Includes omitted.
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
SOCKET s;
struct sockaddr_in saddr;
WSADATA wsadata;
short listenport;
int g = 1;
listenport = 25000;
if (WSAStartup(0x202, &wsadata) == SOCKET_ERROR)
{
printf("WSAStartup failed\n");
WSACleanup();
return 0;
}
s = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_DGRAM, 0);
if (s == INVALID_SOCKET)
{
printf("Error opening listen socket\n");
WSACleanup();
return 0;
}
saddr.sin_family = AF_INET;
saddr.sin_addr.s_addr = INADDR_ANY;
saddr.sin_port = htons(listenport);
if (bind(s,(struct sockaddr *)&saddr, sizeof(struct sockaddr_in)) == SOCKET_ERROR)
{
printf("Bind failed\n");
closesocket(s);
s = INVALID_SOCKET;
WSACleanup();
Sleep(1000);
return 0;
}
//more irrelevant code
}
Purpose of program: Read incoming UDP packets (ints, shorts and floats mixed).
Now the question: If I just run the program and listen to port 25000 as in the code it will run through this code. But if I start another (any) program that communicates through UDP on port 25000 I will get "Bind failed" and I don't understand why from all the documentation I've read. I thought it would bind (at least as long as the communication is UDP) no matter what.
I saw the timecli and timeserv demo UDPs in this site and when I look at that code it is so similar that I can't understand why this won't work.
I hope this question is clear.

Can you check the error code it is returning ?

As expected, WSAGetLastError() returned 10048, meaning socket address already in use.
Since I do open the port with another program, that sounds logical. But I thought this would work because I'll just read what is sent out on the port by the server (the other program).
--EDIT--
So I tried changing bind to connect (same arguments and everything). It seems to run through the connect call.
However, after the connect(...) I use the "recv(s,buf,512,0)" function to receive data from the UDP port. For some reason my debug gets stuck at this function.
