Dialog's of other processes on top of another process

Super Hornet18-Jan-09 23:18

We have developed an application(Form View) which covers complete desktop and hides it. There are few button controls on the form view. On clicking these buttons, another processes were invoked(using shell-execute).

The problem here is when we ciclk on button(say, button1) another application(dialog based) is invoked and show's the dialog on top of above application(Form View), and again on clicking another button(say buton2) invokes another application(dialog based) and the second click event hides the first application(invoked thru button1) to back of application(Form View).

How can we restrict the application's to be shown on top of application(Form View).
The application(Form View)has styles: WS_CLIPCHILDREN | WS_CLIPSIBLINGS | WS_POPUP;

What was wrong with the answers you got to this question almost exactly one week ago?

I know I replied with a rambling essay on how screen savers get called to park themselves on a parent window, by passing a window handle as a parameter.

It's easy to find your own posts - click on your name in the forum - that'll take you to your profile page. Then click on 'Messages Posted' - that'll take you to a list of messages you have posted, in which you could find your previous questions.

Re-posting a question you've already had answers to will not get the same answers again - more likely you'll get abuse for a) re-posting and b) appearing (at lest) to be an ingrate.

If you are using MFC, check out the CDatabase and CRecordset classes. You may also want to read up on what a DSN is, although one is not required.

How can I be notifeid if the caret position has changed or not in a RichEdit control?

I'v a dialog based program with a RichEdit control in it and a few buttons to format the text within it. Now what I wanna do is to be notified whenever the caret positon changes through the lines. (and update the sate of some radio buttons accordingly).

Thank you masters!

My thinking...
"Golly, what a dumb question. Just look at the edit control, and see what messages it sends back. Probably EN_UPDATE or such."
"Hmm, OK, it's not that... Lets fire up a normal edit and look".
"Hmm, just CTL_COLOREDIT coming back"

lots of other thoughts, but in the end, I found:

EN_SELCHANGE

The EN_SELCHANGE message notifies a rich edit control's parent window that the current selection has changed. A
rich edit control sends this notification message in the form of a WM_NOTIFY message.

To receive EN_SELCHANGE notifications, specify ENM_SELCHANGE in the mask sent with the EM_SETEVENTMASK message. 

Note, when there is no selection (that is, the caret is displayed) we have, in fact, the empty selection. Thus,
when the caret position changes (for example, clicking a mouse, typing, or pressing an arrow key), an EN_SELCHANGE
message is sent.

I hope that works for you. Just note that you have to turn notifications on.

To clear the text box use SetWindowText("");
MSDN:
As users click tabs or buttons, the tab control (CTabCtrl) sends notification messages[WM_NOTIFY] to its parent window. Handle these messages if you want to do something in response.

You need to google first, if you have "It's urgent please" mentioned in your question.

You can simply map TCN_SELCHANGE[^] and the set/reset the text box using "SetWindowText" API.

You probably have to explicitly SetFocus to the view you want to be active?

Linked Lists

Two linked lists intersect sometimes. What does this mean? They have the same value at intersection or?

Set 1: 1, 2, 3, 4
Set 2: 5, 6, 7, 9, 2

If I store these values in two linked lists, does it mean they have to intersect at 2 or does it mean something else.
