Goto/Labels !!! your code belongs to the Coding Horror forum ! Poke tongue | ;-P

I know

, it was my first MFC programm but the final project of studies, my teacher was "Dr." in java and wanted a particular structure very easy to read, he changes my structure at the third month Mad | :mad:

. So I started to ask him what he wanted before coding new things.

Why do you think I am going to rewrite my whole programm?

It has some code horrors (like this) that I want to erase and I want to add language support, "standard" windows functions like undo, copy, paste... and port some things to DLLs.

But the doubt was about validation and functionality and this aspect is quite clear Poke tongue | ;-P

you could start by changing your code to using while/for loops, because goto/labels don't bring anything useful here. actually, the only point they could be useful is to get out of several nested loops, for performance purpose... i don't see that in you code Wink | ;)

I still have lot to learn, thanks for the advice Smile | :)

I had thought use the do... while (!m_bDlgOk)

That would not keep the user from typing 11 into the control.

in MFC you can use:

DDV_MinMaxInt(pDX, IDC_EDIT_BOX, 1, 10);

in the function DoDataExchange of your dialog...

DDV_MinMaxInt(pDX, IDC_EDIT_BOX, 1, 10);

This is a bad idea as it falsely gives the user the impression that everything is fine until they decide to click the OK button. Then they get some sort of error message. It's better to disable the OK button until all controls contain valid data.

thanks for the piece of code.. now i have another doubt.. can i use this piece of code multiple times in the DoDataExchange Function..

something like this,

<br />
        DDX_Control(pDX, IDC_EDIT1, m_edit1);<br />
	DDX_Text(pDX, IDC_EDIT2, m_edit2);<br />
	DDX_Text(pDX, IDC_EDIT3, m_edit3);<br />
	DDV_MinMaxInt(pDX, IDC_EDIT1, 1, 10);<br />
	DDV_MinMaxInt(pDX, IDC_EDIT2, 1, 20);<br />
	DDV_MinMaxInt(pDX, IDC_EDIT3, 20, 30); <br />

Yes, but they don't do validation until the OK button is clicked.

Are you using MFC? What is it that you are wanting to do if the entered value is out-of-range (e.g., disable the OK button)? A simple solution is to handle the EN_CHANGE notification.

yes i am doing this in MFC. when it enters out of range it should pop up a message.. that can be done.

If you provided a handler for the EN_KILLFOCUS notification, you could do validation at the time the control loses focus. Still not an optimal solution IMO.

Can anybody tell me how to insert an icon in dialogue box ?

Regards,
Shaiju

in the resource editor add a picture control and set it's Type to Icon, then set the Image property to the ID of the icon...

You must use of LoadIcon for load icon and then use of SetIcon of course you need to a static control.

Can anybody explain me how to insert a Control Panel Icon in Edit box ?

Regards

Edit controls typically do not contain icons. What exactly are you trying to accomplish?

Hi ALL,

I am using Propertysheet class in my project in which I add number of
pages in it.

I want to acccess pointer of this propersheet in one menu function.

void
CMainFrame::OnOpenWebSite()
{

COpenWebSiteShet openWebSiteDlg;
// COpenWebSiteShet derived from CProperSheet class.
if(ID_WIZFINISH == openWebSiteDlg.DoModal())
{

COpenWebSiteShet *pSheet = (COpenWebSiteShet*)GetParent();

}

pSheet is always get NULL handle. So how can get the correct handle of
propertySheet in Mainframe class.

Thanks in Advance
Roll eyes | :rolleyes:

Om

You could try this :-

void
CMainFrame::OnOpenWebSite()
{

COpenWebSiteShet openWebSiteDlg;
// COpenWebSiteShet derived from CProperSheet class.
if(ID_WIZFINISH == openWebSiteDlg.DoModal())
{

COpenWebSiteShet *pSheet = &openWebSiteDlg;

}

the GetParent() is going to try and return the CMainFrame's parent, which is in most cases as you noted NULL, and you already have the address of the PropertySheet because you created it on the stack.

At the point you are calling GetParent(), the window associated with openWebSiteDlg has been destroyed. Once DoModal() has returned, you can only access openWebSiteDlg's member variables.

Thanks in advance.

you can't determine when application is cut off by TaskMagr!. there is no way except you put a monitoring application which monitor application at regular interval.
