in this case ZeroMemory is not required. u urself have rectified the problem ie it should be memcpy (val,ByteValue,3) rather than memcpy (ByteValue,val,3)(in ur first posting)

never say die

As per your advise i changed my code like this; still i am not able to see my string which i sent from application.

//ActiveX control code
void VRMControl::SendBy(BYTE* ByteValue, LONG Length)
{
BYTE val[3];
ZeroMemory (val,3);
memcpy (val,ByteValue,3);
AfxMessageBox (CString(val));
}

It says "Object Reference Error". Please provide me solution. In my first post i did mention my ActiveX calling code also please look over that too since i might donce some mistakes there.

Thanks..

Whats wrong with the following, actually my VC++ application is not calling ActiveX method it says "Object Reference Error", i can able to compile successfully.

brFileContent->Read (abData,0,2); //brFileContent is Binary Reader

Byte *pbManagedData = &(abData[0]); // Get starting point of Array (I can able to see Data and address here

axSimpleAdditionAtx1 ->FinalBy (pbManagedData); // Calling Activex

Method signature in ActiveX which is not getting called..

void VRMControl::SendBy(BYTE* ByteValue, LONG Length)
{

}

No it should be pointer i can able to call some other methodes, this alone is giving thie error seems there is some signature or data mismatching that i am not able to find out please help me out.

Can you give the prototype of FinalBy of ActiveX control your trying to use?

This is the prototype which i am using in ActiveX

void VRMControl::FinalBy(BYTE* FinalStr)
{
AfxMessageBox ("Called..");
}

Even the message "Called.." is not displayed before that itself it throws error.

Then it should be other reason about the initialization of that ActiveX instead of invoking the method FinalBy(...).

Some alternatives:

strcpy(str, (LPCTSTR) FName);

strcpy(str, FName.GetBuffer(0));

OR:
char * pStr = (LPCTSTR) FName;

Hi Laxman,

Do u remember yesterday i had asked u for changing the file path

C:\folder\folder\file.ext

to

c:/folder/folder/file.ext

now i have written a small program in which will change the input and get the output as
c:/folder/folder/file.ext

now i am facing one more problem file is not opening

ShellExecute(NULL, "open", str,NULL, NULL, SW_SHOWNORMAL)

is this the correct way to open the file is the code correct...

str is of char array
char str[100];

May be there was any bug i think code is correct.

Hi Laxman,

below code changes c:\folder\folder\file1.txt

to

c:/folder/folder/file1.txt

void CSearchDlg::OnDblclkSout()
{
// TODO: Add your control notification handler code here

// Code to open the selected file.
int d;
d=m_SOUT.GetCurSel();
CString FName;
m_SOUT.GetText(d,FName);

char str[100];
int i,l,k,j,m;
strcpy(str, FName);

for (i=0;str[i]!='\0';i++)

{

if (str[i]=='\\')

{

l=i; k=0;
char str1[100];
if (str[l+1]=='\0')
{
str[l]='/';
}
else
{
for (j=l+1;str[j]!='\0';j++)
{
str1[k]=str[j];
k++;

}
str1[k]='\0';
str[l]='/';
for (m=0;str1[m]!='\0';m++)
{

str[++l]=str1[m];

}

}

str[++l]='\0';
i=i++;

}

}
m_ctrlEDIT.SetWindowText(str);

ShellExecute(NULL, "open", str ,NULL, NULL, SW_SHOWNORMAL);
}

Try the following code as its tested and works fine.

CString str;
m_SOUT.GetText(m_SOUT.GetCurSel(),str);
ShellExecute(m_hWnd,NULL,str, NULL, NULL, SW_SHOWNORMAL);
m_ctrlEDIT.SetWindowText(str);

Hope this solve your problem.

How this is possible?

Your path in list box should be either
C:/Box01/00000304/00000034.txt
or
C:\Box01\00000304\00000034.txt

i think you are not inserting the data into list box correctly..
have you?

Hi,

In the list box items are like
C:\Box01/00000304/00000034.txt
C:\Box01/00000304/00000035.txt
C:\Box01/00000304/00000036.txt

but after the function i get the value in the str as

C:/Box01/00000304/00000034.txt

since the path is correct with file name it should open right ??

Can you post the block for insertion of the data into list box ?

and Do you want to open only .txt files?

Hi,

code for inseting file names to list box & i have open only txt files only.

void CSearchDlg :: disp ()
{
int i = 0;
while (strlen (shWord[i].file_name) > 1)
{
m_SOUT.AddString(shWord[i].file_name);
int k = 0;
TCHAR buff[100];
strcpy(buff,"\0");
while (shWord[i].w_offset[k] != -1)
{
TCHAR buffer[50];
int f=shWord[i].w_offset[k];
_itoa(f,buffer,10);
strcat(buff,buffer);
strcat(buff,",");
k++;
}
buff[strlen(buff)-1]='\0';
m_SOUT.AddString(buff);
i++;
}
}
