TerminateProcess is the function of last resort. Try something "nice" first, like sending it a WM_CLOSE message.

|

Use FindWindow to get the handle of the window you want to close. Send WM_CLOSE message to this window.

Thanks everyone for sending reply,I will try sending WM_CLOSE

I am learning COM. And has come to know about one of the Advantages of the COM over .dll file. That
It extends the functionality of (client)application without rebuilding.
I.e. If you make the changes in function of .Dll File which client application is using you need to recompile the application. But if you are using the COM you dont need to do recompilation of client application
But How ?? afterall the COM (In-process COM) is also a .dll

GauranG033It extends the functionality of (client)application without rebuilding.
That's the same as with a dll. Are you sure they were saying that you cannot do that with a dll ? Where did you read that ?

Hey thnx. This is the article I am refering to learn the COM component.
http://www.codeproject.com/com/COM_from_scratch_2.asp[^]
I don't know its my mistake in understanding the concept or its authors mistake.
just find out the following line in the below link and the paragraph above it says what creates a doubt in my mind
Conclusion: COM extends functionalities of applications without rebuilding

I would not recommend that as a beginner COM article. That article is dealing with a very specific subject, it does not appear to be "beginning COM" article.
GauranG033 wrote: It extends the functionality of (client)application without rebuilding.
The article that is from is about building a component "factory". It just happens to use COM. The "factory" concept could be reproduced using native C++ and DLL's without any COM. So your statement that this is an "advantage of COM over DLL" is not true.

If you are not changing the signature of a dll function, you need not to recompile the application again.
This is the same case with com.
There is one property of a COM that once an Interface is published, it is not changed any more.
This means that once you write any function in an interface, you are not going to change it's signature.
If you want to do so, you need to publish a different interface with new function signature.
So Now all you got is a com component with two different interfaces that are exporting two versions of your function.
So in this case, your application need not to recompile, cause the function it wants still exist there.

is that mean everytime I will add some new function and Compile it. It will generate new Interface with differnet version number.
|
|
|
|

It is your duty to follow the rules.
But you can surely add more functions to the existing interface you created.
I will try to explain the need of not modifying existing functino using a simple example.
Suppose an Application A is using a dll D. Another application A2 is also using the same dll D. Now if the user installs new version of A2 in which the dll D function signatures got changed, then the user can't use application A.
To avoid this situation, people often use version no. in the dll name for ex. MFC42.dll.
Now if you are using COM, you will write new interface if the function signature chanes, without changing the earlier one, so both the applications will work even after installing new versions of application A2.

Hi!
I am trying to add information in an access database but when i try sending the information to the database, i keep getting the error message that the record set is read Only. I expected it to be the default "CRecordset::none" flag but i don't know what the problem is. The database has two table but currently i am using only one.In the appWizard i choose to include the two tables.
Below is the code that i have attached to the "add records" button:
(I haven't finished attatching all the CEdit controls becaue of the problem.) Please Help
void CRegistrationView::OnAddrecords()
{
// TODO: Add your command handler code here
// TODO: Add your command handler code here
// Get a pointer to the record set
CRecordset* pSet = OnGetRecordset();
// Make sure that any changes to the current record
// have been saved
if (pSet->CanUpdate() && !pSet->IsDeleted())
{
pSet->Edit();
if (!UpdateData())
return;
pSet->Update();
}
// Add the new record
m_pSet->AddNew();
// Set the registration(Primary Key) in the new record
m_pSet->m_Registration_Number=m_strNew_Registration_Number;
// Save the new record
m_pSet->Update();
// Refresh the record set
m_pSet->Requery();
// Move to the new record
m_pSet->MoveLast();
// Update the form
UpdateData(FALSE);
}

This has nothing to do with your problem of adding records, but I question your use of comments. Why state the obvious? For example:

m_pSet->AddNew();
Wamuti wrote: // Refresh the record set
m_pSet->Requery();
Wamuti wrote: // Move to the new record
m_pSet->MoveLast();

When? How are you opening the recordset? Are you using a DSN, and if so, is it read-only?

Firstly, thanks. The reason i am having comments is that i am using code from a tutorial because i am not very experianced in MFC programming.
I am using the appWizard and used the recordset type snapshot (Not the Dynaset). I am not sure what DSN means but i have not changed any setting but the book i am using states that on using the snapshot, it should be set as "CRecordset::none".

By opening a recordset with two tables, the recordset is inherently read-only.

What should i do to make the database writable because i still need the two tables and access both tables?

Update each table separately.

Does this mean that i don't include the second table while creating the project? If this is so, what will i do while assigning variable for the table i leave out while in the class wizard in the Member variables? Thanks, i am learning alot

You'll need multiple recordsets. The one you currently have is for viewing, while updating the tables would require additional recordsets.
