Your replying to the wrong person. The thread initiator asked a question. I attempted to answer it and reassure them that the debug messages were just informational based upon their design decisions. What they are attempting to accomplish was "By design" as far as there code appeared. Why they choose to design systems this way or that is their business. Not mine.

I'll add suggestions from time to time but only when it's obvious that they will not achieve their objectives based on the code they post. This was not one of those methinks.

Good day.

Creating a custom control?

Hello everyone!
Does anyone have a tutorial on the basics of making MFC controls? I've read some tutorials, but they talk about sending messages and stuff that I don't understand... Basically, this is what I need to do:

A grid control that looks like this:
* No labels at the top.
* Fixed-size grid boxes.
* Colorable boxes. (Basic text formatting will do)
* Remove grid lines (The user can select to add it though)

Can anyone help me? Thanks!

Help calling and using a functions in visual c++ 6

Hi all i am very new to visual c++ . I am using [B]visual studio 6[/B] . So i might ask some simple questions but since i am new i consider you guys bare with me.

I have the following 2 block of codes and i want to be able to call the first one like this :

int pos=-1;
pos=GetPosByNick("name");

I am making a form with a textbox and a button. On the click of the button i want to take the input and place it instead of name in above function call and get the pos value and then use that in my second block of code instead of zero :

(WPARAM)0

so i be happy if an expert tell me step by step what do i need to do to be able to use these blocks of codes. Where to place them , what do i need to declare. Since it is my first attempt to do a program in visual c++ i be happy if an expert give me step by step instrcutions. Thanks

as I know, there is no fast checking.
2 methods are:
(1) ftp - you need to provide a server which you have rights to access, then use ftp to check.
(2) try to "download" a file, but you can stop downloading once download starts because you just need to check connection.
This issue can be done by CInternetConnection.

(1) is faster than (2), but not very fast.
(2) may need only 1 second If internet connection is OK.
But if connection is not OK, you may have to wait for up to a few of minutes to get result - timeout does't work well in the case.

separating strings [modified]

8-Jul-06 3:01

Hi,

I have a string formatted somewhere in my program as

Cstring strMain;
strMain.Format("Health: \nWealth");

At some other part of the program, I need 'Health:’ as a separate string and ‘Wealth’ as a separate string. I tried using sscanf but it is not separating the strings.

Cstring s1,s2;
Cstring strOriginal = getmain(); // this gets strMain
Sscanf(strOriginal,"%s: %s",s1,s2);

This give just ‘Health’. i.e. both s1 and s2 hold the string ‘Health’

Please can you tell me the right way?

First of all, you can't use pass CString's directly to sscanf. Arguments to sscanf must be pointers.

If you are using the '\n' as the delimiter, you could try something like the following:

CString s1,s2;
CString strOriginal = getmain();
int offset = strOriginal.Find('\n');
if (offset >= 0) {
  s1 = strOriginal.Left(offset);
  s2 = strOriginal.Mid(offset + 1);
}

for which function, you are referrnig the same file? I strongly believe that, the file is local one(defined for your project).
AFAIK there's no such file named, oldstd.h

add message handler for ID_BORDERCOLOR, then inside the message handler,
add the code

dlg.DoModal();
COLORREF clr = dlg.GetColor();
