hi,
Can somebody tell me how to go about writing data from the controls to ini files.
I know tht i can use WritePrivateProfileString function but i wanted to know what intializations i will be required to do as in creating a section etc before i can follow the synatx of writing into an ini file.
Also i wanted to know how I can store multiple values for a control(combo box) into the same key using a loop or count.
thanks
U get wht u Give

When you create a entry into ini file using above api, it itself create a file is doesn't exists, it itself create a section if doesn't exist and it itself overwrite the key if it exists.

By definition, a combobox can only have one selection.

I have compiled a MFC dialog-based application. The GUI is organizedas follows:
The application window is dialog-based and has the following on it:
1) Main dialog window has on it i)CListCtrl-1, ii)CTabCtrl-1
2) CTabCtrl-1 has on it 2 property pages. One of the property pages has a CListCtrl-2. (The other property page is irrelevant here)
At the GUI-level, I want to achieve the following:
"When an item in CListCtrl-1 is selected, the CListCtrl-2 should get populated with some values"
What I am unable to do:
I have added a message handler for CListCtrl-1 on the NM_CLICK event, but don't know how to get a pointer to CListCtrl-2 from the Main Dialog.
I have sufficient experience with VC++ - any help even outlining a technique of doing this (although code is always welcome) will be highly appreciated.
Thank you very much for the time you will taking out to help me on this.

Thanks for the reply.
GetDlgItem is not of any help, directly, but yes it has some role to play.
Meanwhile, I have worked out the solution and it seems to work well. Here's what I did:
a) I am persisting the pointers to all dialogs that the TabCtrl-1 will hold. (Simply putting them in a "CDialog *m_tabPages[4];" variable)
b) Now I am simply doing the following
CListCtrl * ptrToCListCtrl-2=(CListCtrl * )(TabCtrl.m_tabPages[0]->GetDlgItem(CListCtrl-2));
Thanks for the initiative, once again.

Make Reg Entry in Registry containing path of your application which you want to run at startup.
// For all user
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
//for Current User
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run

But i have a question, i understand that you told me but if my application is running in other user and i dont want that the other user (both in the same comuter) can stop the application like for example remove this entry in the register and the next time that the computer start, it will not start.
If it is possible?
Because i need a application that work in the computer but only one user can use it and it doen't matter who start the computer and who log in, i want that always start to work.
Than you very much.

You should add the following value to registry subkey :
value:
"AnythingYouWantAsName" = "YourProgramPath"
// for example "Appliction" = "c:\myprogram.exe"
to the registry subkeys:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run\
so your application runs every time windows starts.

While this is a true statement, you can't assume that Giorgi knew that an answer had already been posted. A common method for me when replying to posts is to right-click on each of the posts that I want to reply to and select Open in New Window. At this point I go through each one, re-read it, type my response, and submit it. It may be 30-45 minutes before I get to the last one and several others might have replied in the meantime.

If you had written it as an NT Service, you could mark it startup type as AUTOMATIC. Then it could run without a user being logged in without much trouble.
If you already have an EXE that has a user interface, then it is better to use the RUN method, as suggested. Another option is to add a shortcut to the Start Menu | Programs | Startup item to cause your progrma to run when the user logs in. This is more 'apparent' to the user than some 'hidden ' registry value.

Hi, my application will not have a user interface, so i dont understan what is the "mark it starup type as automatic" and where i mark it.
And another cuestion is if for example i have 2 different users and in one user have running the application but i dont want that the other can't stop this application, it is possible, doing it like u say in the sartup?

If you have a Windows NT service, and its configuration is to run 'Automatic' it will start when Windows starts and will be running already for each user.
If you don't want a particular user to be able to stop a service, make sure he is not an administrator on the local machine, or else deny them the start/stop service security privilege.

Sorry but i dont understand the configuration in Automatic, can u explain me?
Thanks
