right on means "accurate"
or you are trying to get mouse move? right click or what?

Hi Dinu,
there's is no message map, that can map right button click
so derive a class from CButton.
Add WM_RBUTTONDOWN message handler and the needful there. Subclass or add control variable for your button.

now you are done.

Why won't WM_RBUTTONDOWN / WM_RBUTTONUP suit your needs? What about WM_CONTEXTMENU?

Are you trying to time the time code takes to run? If that is the case look at QueryPerformanceCounter

no I just want to get time and save it in a file.
I use CTime class, but it does not have enough resolution.
I want a function or class that give me the time of system in milli second resolution.

Why do you need that kind of resolution? I'd suggest you read this article[^] first.

GetLocalTime()[^]

GetSystemTime()[^]

I'm not sure whether you will get precise timing of 1 ms because as per the windows concept, each process will get 20ms of time for it's execution, it's depends on the scheuduler that your process will get scheduled.So a in the user mode, we could not ensure the correctness of the timer.

We can use waitable timer for the same, since it is a kernel object, it will signal at the specified time. But I doubt whether your application can handle do the required processing thsi small amount of time. Anyway check this.

Using waitable timer[^]

The Windows multimedia timers are supposed to offer the programmer the ability to get timer resolutions better than what is typically available (around 10ms on Windows XP).

I have not tested these functionalities extensivelly, but I did notice a subjective improvement in a 3D animation I was building.

Check timeBeginPeriod function and the related multimedia timer functions. The minimum resolution that can be set is 1ms.

You can use //::ShellExecute(NULL, "open", "iexplore.exe", "your_url.htm", NULL, NULL, SW_SHOWNORMAL);or see CHtmlView maybe it is some helpful to you

no need of doing all this.

just right click on the dialog. Take properties from the menu.

In the general tab u can find a combobox called menu. Select "IDR_MENU2" from that one. Build and run the project. Cool | :cool:

There is nothing wrong in your code.
It is working fine here.

Just debug the code once,keeping a breakpoint at OnCreate()

Can u give some more details ??

To know the routing of the command,Keep message boxes in each view and run the application.

I think this must help you to know the command routing.
