Thanks for all the links. You give a whole bunch of work for the rest of the day.
But please dont go anywhere. I may get back to you for any problems.
Thanks so much again.

See I told I will get back to you. I checked this link (codeguru link that you sent me finally). Looked like it had a whole lot of samples and classes to explore. But just go thru the comments of different people. Everyone ask the author about how to read an attachment. Funny thing is either the author does not reply to them or one even said the following
Hi,
please do not contact me regarding the handling of attachments. I have no idea, and I never extended these classes to handle attachments.
Sorry, but this is something you have to find out yourself.
Thanks,
Michael

Go up a level
Isnt this weird that no one knows how to read a MIME type multipart attachment from a POP3 mail server? 
[Now, ravi do you understand how  I am.] Oh please help me again...

Darn, I know I've seen source code for extracting attachments from a raw mail message... I will keep looking.

I think I found one from the codeguru link itself. I have gone thru the source code. Boy! its very heavy duty. The guy actually wrote whatever text that comes outta pop3 server Retr command to a file first.
He then parses thru the file, literally checking for strings like "To:", "From:", "Content-Disposition: attachment - <<filename>>" and then extracts everything to different variables.
Thats too much work though. Why in the world are there no C++ APIs or classes to do all these?
May be I should start writing them if no one really did before.
The sample that I am talking about in the codeguru link is this...
POP3 Client With Attachment - Alexander Volkov (2002/02/15)
Here is a simple COM server that is able to receive a mail messages and extract attached files.

There are commercial libs available to do this.

That would be great! Please consider posting your article at CP.

You never know ravi, how many .dsw and .dsp I have written so far starting from MAPI and until POP3 and MIME protocols with Winsock and a whole lot of fun.
I even have a feeling to quit my job. My boss is my only cheerleader now. (and ofcourse CP).

Have a look at Chilkat Mail - http://www.chilkatsoft.com/ChilkatMail.asp
It should do what you want.

Thanks Neville, I am looking thru the code. But before I go any further have you used it. Is there a simple client written consuming this COM, that i can use? [Just to save my time]

Have a look at the sample code which Matt includes. I haven't actually used it apart from a quick play with the samples. The mailing list is active and Matt is quick to respond to problems. Quite amazing seeing that it is free.

HI,
I have an VC++ application[DialogBased-has OLE-Automation support] which communicates to Data Acquisition[NI Diadem] software through OLE_DISPATCH_INTERFACE and this DAQ software copies custom_data[which is a graph]into windows clipboard.
Now in my vc++ application i.e[OnDialogViewImage()]function i am unable to get the clipboard data.
following is the below code i am using:
if(::OpenClipboard(AfxGetApp()->m_pMainWnd->m_hWnd))
{
BeginWaitCursor();
UINT enumformat = EnumClipboardFormats(uFormat);
HGLOBAL hem = ::GetClipboardData(enumformat);
}
but enumformat is always NULL. Is this is the correct way to get clipboarddata() and also how do i paint the data from clipboard to my DialogImage control.
Any help is welcome!.
regards
ArunBK

Hi There,
I don't think that's the function you want to call. You should try calling IsClipboardFormatAvailable, with the ID of your custom clipboard format, which you should have retrieved through a previous call to RegisterClipboardFormat. Once you have verified that the indicated format exists on the clipboard through IsClipboardFormatAvailable, then, you may call GetClipboardData with the ID of the format you wish to retrieve the data in.
You don't need to call EnumClipboardFormats, unless you want to know about ALL of the formats that are on the clipboard. If you are only interested in a particular format, you should ask for it directly.
The call to EnumClipboardFormats is failing because you haven't initialized the IN/OUT parameter with a value of 0, to get the first available format. This parameter must be a valid format (to get the next format) or 0 (to get the first format).

How to hide the application so it does not appear in the task manager Alt+Ctrl+Del?
|
|
|
|
|
ShowWindow(SW_HIDE) will hide the application from the Application list in task mgr.. but you will still see your .exe in the processes.

How do I set up an include path directory? i.e. If I want a directory called "\mysource\include" to be automatically searched in the include path so that I can use "#include <<myheader.h>>"I thought it was in Project | Settings | Custom build but I'm missing something.
|
|
|
|

Project / Settings / C/C++, Category: Preprocessor
-c
ABSURDITY:
A statement or belief manifestly inconsistent with one's own opinion.
|
|
|
|
|
So, what do I need there /FI? Like /FIMyIncludeDir
|
|
|
|
|
i usually put a relative path from the project directory to the include folder (../../someotherfolder/whatever). you can use absolute paths, too (c:\someotherfolders/whatever).
the Tools/Option method that the other poster mentioned will set it for all projects. the method i mention sets it only for the current project.

Ok. Thanks. I see that I need a /I. I prefer using relative paths too.
|
|
|
|
|
you don't need a /I , just put the path in the "Additional Include Directories" field.
-c

Thanks. I missed that "PreProcessor" category you specified.
