I must have read that KB 5 times before but after actually fixing the problem I now understand the KB - DOH. The answer was exactly in that KB I listed, I feel like a right wally now 
Just in case someone else needs it spelt out like I did on this occasion:
1. The app wizard creates accelerator keys for Ctrl-C, Ctrl-V etc.
2. CFormView's (and probably a class a bit higher up), process accelerator keys, whereas CDialog does not
3. Processing an accelerator key (finding a match between the keys you pressed and an entry in the accelerator key table) means the key press is not passed on to child controls - hence the CEdit control never gets the keys
In my case, I wasn't using the accelerators at all, so simply deleting these entries fixed the problem.
Hope my mistake helps someone else!

I need to create a scheduler which does a function (display message) at the specified time. and it should be able to run at the background in the system try. How can i do this.
A link or code snippet will be useful.
I already have a SDI application and i have the display message function in it i need to call at scheduled time and it should be able to minimize to system tray.
Thanks,

Are you sure? Perhaps you want to create a schedule instead. You need to search for the ITaskScheduler, ITask, and ITaskTrigger interfaces. There are some good examples on MSDN.

* first learn how to minimize your application to the system tray.
* Learn how to set timers for a function.
* make a function that compares current time with the scheduled time, if they concide, popup a message.
is that you want?
All these can be found if you search inside CP itself.

When you create an MFC project, you may choose between an SDI, MDI or Dialog-based. In Dialog-based, we can create buttons, lines, and other controls but in SDI, you have to insert a dialog to place your buttons, etc.
I would like to ask if it is possible to place these dialogs, edit boxes, static text, etc to the main window of the SDI or MDI? if yes, how, just a snippet will do? Thanx

Yes, when creating your project, on the last step of the creation wizzard, you can choose from which class view (CView, CScrollView, CFormView,...) your main view class will inherits of. Just choose CFormView and a form will already be ready for you. You just need to place the controls you want on it.
No code snippet necessary

to create a control declare an object of that control class eg CEdit, CStatic etc in ur view class and then call Create function of these classes in OnCreate function of ur view class

If you are opening Text File why Not go for CStdioFile and CFile class.. Thats work well with The Text or binay file!...

No
The reason is ReadFile doesnot allocate memory for szBuffer .
Use this code
DWORD buff;
TCHAR szBuffer[SOME_SIZE] ;
HANDLE hr = CreateFile(L"c:\\a.txt",FILE_READ_DATA,FILE_SHARE_READ,NULL,OPEN_EXISTING,FILE_ATTRIBUTE_NORMAL,NULL);
ReadFile(hr,szBuffer,SOME_SIZE,&buff,NULL);

Check the second and third parameters. They should be:
ReadFile(hr, szBuffer, sizeof(szBuffer), &buff, NULL);

Hello guys,
I have a MFC dialog based application , where I want to play *.avi files.
Suppose I have a button "Load video" and after clicking it and choosing the specified *.avi file , I want to be able to play(pause,stop) the video in my dialog.
Any suggestions on how to do it?
PS. I had problems with CAnimateCtrl , When I tried to Open the file :
if(!m_animate.Open("c:\\file.avi"))
MessageBox("Could not open video");
I got the latter MessageBox. Though file.avi existed on C: disk.

Just a check.
Does file runs in media player?
Do you have necessary rights on file?

yes it does.
But is not there another way to play *.avi files without using CAnimateCtrl

I do not have any experience with using ActiveX controls.
Could you give me little tips on how to do this, I am using Visual Studio.Net 2003.
Thanks in advance

in the dialog editor view, right click on the tool bar panel, choose add/remove items. on the next dialog, choose com components tab and tick windows media player in the list. click ok and then u can use it like any other control.

thanks for help , but on little thing more.
i have done everything but when I write m_player.openPlayer("c:\\file.avi"); New instance of MediaPlayer is opened and the file is played there.
But I need the video to be played inside my dialog so I thought this should do the job :
m_player.launchURL("c:\\file.avi");
But I get a error MessageBox with empty text 
Do you have any idea what is wrong??

Yes, you need to use the setURL() method.

CAnimateCtrl::Open() simply sends a ACM_OPEN message to the control. Per MSDN, that message will fail if the .avi file contains any audio. Do you think this is the case?

Yes David now I took a better look in MSDN and found :
"Open does not support sound in an AVI clip; you can open only silent AVI clips"
And my video of course contains audio.
Then can you help me with opening and playing *.avi - s with audio?
Thanks in advance
