Ok, I set up the project the way you and WiB suggested. Unfortunately, I am having trouble provided parameters for the CreateEx function. I tried doing:

CWin->CreateEx(CReceiveClass, NULL, WS_OVERLAPPEDWINDOW, CRect(50,50, 100, 100),NULL, NULL, NULL);

but haven't had any luck. Can you please provide some parameters for the CreateEx function so my program will draw a basic frame?

Are you actuall Creating windows for your two classes: CSendClass and CReceiveClass? My guess is not. That would explain why IsWindow() is failing and you are getting the ASSERTs. Instantiating a CWnd derived object does not Create a window.

How can I connect to a remote database with my ID and Password using VC6 but without a Server Terminal App?

Is this possible?

Thank you very much!

If you mean in code then it depends what kind of database. If it is for example SQL Server - use ADO[^] to do it.
If not in code than I don't know what you mean Smile | :)

OK,just bellow:
I used SQL Server 2000 created a data source.Then I put it on to my homepage.Although The server support SQL Server DataBase,but it is impossible for him to run a srever App for my Client App.So I must used my ID and Password connect to it directly from my Client App.Also I want it to work very smoothly no matter where my Client App runs.

Detect what exactly is going wrong: Does it receive WM_CLOSE, is there a return value designating failure, are your splitter classes handling shutdown OK?

detect number in CStringArray

Hi
I've made a CStringArray m_array.
It contains about 20text items and 1 text item who is really a integer.

m_array[0] = "TEXT";
m_array[1]="123";

Any easy way to detect when we are dealing with a whole number field?

Greetings
Jens

for(int i = 0; i < m_array.size()-1; i++)<br />
{<br />
    if(m_array[i] == "123")<br />
    {<br />
          [...do this...]<br />
    }<br />
}

thats one way.

That'll work, assuming you don't have any instances of something like "1ABC" or "ABC1" in the array.

try :

<br />
if (atoi (m_array[0])==0 && m_array[0]!="0")<br />
      //this will be a text<br />
else<br />
      //this is a number<br />

You can alos go through each and every one of the character in the string and use the IsDigit function

i am trying to develop an application which prints the web page even it spans horizontally/vertically multiple pages.
i am converting the html document to image and printing the same.
since i am capturing the screen and printing the image ,my css style properties specific to printing are lost.
How do i tell the browser control to read the print media specific information so that when it loads the page it renders the print media specific info onto the screen. is there any exposed method in webbrowser control or what interface should i use to achieve the functionality.
Please suggest me ..

Internationalize Software

Hallo,

i´ve software which supports different languages (german, english, frensh). The software is compiled on a german system and needs a statically linked MFC. So the problem is that Error Messages which come from the MFC such as by CException::ReportError() are already in german.

Is there a way to compile the software with the english version of MFC or to make the language of this messages dependent on system language?

Thanks,
Andy

Hi Big A!

Still have to fight with my inherited burden?
Two possibilities:

1. Compile the whole stuff on your english dev-station (which is always better I think)

2. uncheck the statically linked MFC stuff in the linker-options and redesign the installscripts...

hope this helps a little...

greetings from a strange world,
Olli!

Thanks for your answer.
I have already compiled the hole stuff on my english system, but the messages are still in german.

This is very strange.

If you want something free, from the visual studio IDE on any given CPP file type :: and a list of available API for whatever class you're using will pop up.
