Eureka! I have found it!
After hours of trying various debuggers and debugging strategies, countless cups of good strong tea and not a few words of frustration and annoyance I have located and fixed the problem.
Buried deep in my own initialisation code, in a place I haven't visited for years and had forgotten all about is a call to a function called SetThreadName which uses exception 0x406d1388  . This was being compiled as managed code so the framework was seeing the exception even before the catch block in the same function. The solution was simply to mark that function as unmanaged (and then drink more tea  ).

Dear Friends
I have created a dialog based MFC application. Here I have one form say "MyForm", showing on my current desktop when I run my application. I have two button on this form called "NewDesktop" and "OldDesktop".
Now when I press "NewDesktop" I use CreateDesktop() functions and then SwitchDesktop() so It creates new desktop and shows the new desktop. But now it hides my previous application and my form. Now I want to show my form(MyForm) in this new desktop. I don't know how to do that?
Any help please?
With many many thankx and regards in advance
Mahesh

Have you tried "SetThreadDesktop" and then create the UI?

"Remarks
The SetThreadDesktop function will fail if the calling thread has any windows or hooks on its current desktop (unless the hDesktop parameter is a handle to the current desktop)."
You must do this FIRST, then create your window. I don't think there is a way to move an already created window between desktops as it's managed by the WM for that particular desktop.

And what do you need exactely ? Every calendar has the features you described, IMO. Do you need a Control, with UI ? Or a simple table or funcitonb that returns dates ? For which kind of app ? MFC ?

Is threre a way to change the background color and the font color in an edit box (rich or not)? 
|
|
|
|

Yes. I would look into the WM_CTLCOLOREDIT message.

SubClass the edit control and handle in the ON_WM_CTLCOLOR_REFLECT.

I found a function for the rich edit box, member of the cricheditctrl !

Look for the HDN_BEGINTRACK notification message. See the example here.

How to change the caption of a dialog box dynamically?
|
|
|
|
|
|
I want to change the caption of the dialog box itself. not its controls. SetWindowText is working only for the controls, not for the dialogbox
|
|
|
|
|
yes it does !!! because SetWindowText() is a member of CWnd which is also the base class of dialog boxes.
in any dialogbox event handler, put :
this->SetWindowText("My new dialog title");

Hey
I was wondering how i should handle the WM_GETMINMAXINFO because i heard that it is the first message sent when creating a window and not the WM_NCCREATE message as i previously had thought.
Should i just place it in a if statement and handle it, something like this, or is there a way to handle it properly:
<br />
<br />
if(message - WM_GETMINMAXINFO)<br />
{<br />
return 0;<br />
}<br />
else if(message == WM_NCCREATE)<br />
{<br />
SetWindowLongPtr(hwnd, GWL_USERDATA, ((long)((LPCREATESTRUCT(lParam))->lpCreateParams)));<br />
}<br />
<br />
<br />
thanks alot

Why do you want to handle it in the first place?
What are you trying to achive that the default-implementation does not do?
"We trained hard, but it seemed that every time we were beginning to form up into teams we would be reorganised. I was to learn later in life that we tend to meet any new situation by reorganising: and a wonderful method it can be for creating the illusion of progress, while producing confusion, inefficiency and demoralisation."

I was told that if your class cant handle that first message it might crash your program, or am i confused because it will be handled automatically by the default window procedure.
thanks
