Ravi Bhavnani1-Oct-02 12:01 Ravi Bhavnani 1-Oct-02 12:01  You're right, CheckDlgButton() is easier to use. /ravi Let's put "civil" back in "civilization" http://www.ravib.com ravib@ravib.com writing help docs ns1-Oct-02 7:12 ns 1-Oct-02 7:12  I am looking at MS HTML Help and cant quite figure out what I need to do and how to do it. Going around in circles.... plus it looks like I need to know HTML - I dont. Any suggestions on the easiest way to write help docs? I do want the tabbed sort of help file window to pop up with Index, Contents etc (like you get with the MSDN). Help! Appreciate your help, ns Re: writing help docs Ravi Bhavnani1-Oct-02 7:13 Ravi Bhavnani 1-Oct-02 7:13  You only need to know a handful of tags to write most of your documentation. Imho, a great book on HTML Help is this one[^]. /ravi Let's put "civil" back in "civilization" http://www.ravib.com ravib@ravib.com Re: writing help docs ns1-Oct-02 7:33 ns 1-Oct-02 7:33  The TOC mentions win 3.1 and win95 an awful lot - no whisper of win98 or win2K. DO you think its up to date? Have you used it? Has the workshop not changed since the book was written? I dont know if you can answer these questions...but before I order it get as much info as I can... Appreciate your help, ns Re: writing help docs Ravi Bhavnani1-Oct-02 7:38 Ravi Bhavnani 1-Oct-02 7:38  Works great for Win2K! I'm using it to write the .chm for the next version of one of my products. /ravi Let's put "civil" back in "civilization" http://www.ravib.com ravib@ravib.com Re: writing help docs ns1-Oct-02 7:43 ns 1-Oct-02 7:43  Terrific. Now I know who to bother when I (eventually) get started on the process. Thanks a million for the link to the book. I 'lll just buy it and not wait for official channels to order it.....I feel more confident now knowing that soon the mists of the concept will be lifted (I hope!) Re: writing help docs ns1-Oct-02 7:53 ns 1-Oct-02 7:53  My books on its way - had to buy it used - its out of print. Have fun!

Aaron Schaefer1-Oct-02 7:06 Aaron Schaefer 1-Oct-02 7:06  Hi, I need to know how to specify the system color used in a GRAY_BRUSH as an RGB macro. In other words, if I have something like RGB(r, g, b) Then what values should r, g, and b equal to match LTGRAY_BRUSH, GRAY_BRUSH, etc. Are there some defined constants for gray, light gray, etc? Thanks, Aaron Re: What color is gray? Ravi Bhavnani1-Oct-02 7:11 Ravi Bhavnani 1-Oct-02 7:11  In terms of RGB, lt gray is (192, 192, 192), medium gray is (128, 128, 128) and dark grey is (64, 64, 64). Not sure if this information actually helps you. /ravi Let's put "civil" back in "civilization" http://www.ravib.com ravib@ravib.com Re: What color is gray?

Chad Koehler1-Oct-02 7:26 Chad Koehler 1-Oct-02 7:26  You can user the GetSystemColor() function to get any of the Windows system colors. You can use GetRValue() GetGValue() and GetBValue() to get the actual values (that you may or may not still need). Re: What color is gray? Aaron Schaefer1-Oct-02 8:26 Aaron Schaefer 1-Oct-02 8:26  Thanks for the tips! I think the GetSysColor is the one I need. How can I manage to execute an application in a administrator mode Alex Gomara1-Oct-02 6:40 Alex Gomara 1-Oct-02 6:40  I've seen it but I don't know how to programm it in my application. I mean, if the application has to be executed by a inexperienced user then he has to execute, for instance, "application.exe", but if I have to do some kind of administration (for example change an IP address) executed like "application.exe -admin" that shows me up a different dialog. How can I programm this two different rutines?? Thaks Re: How can I manage to execute an application in a administrator mode Tomasz Sowinski1-Oct-02 6:49 Tomasz Sowinski 1-Oct-02 6:49  What actually is your problem? You want your program to perform different actions depending on presence of some command-line argument? Or rather you're asking about the function which tells if current user has administrative rights?

Thanks. Re: How can I manage to execute an application in a administrator mode Rick Crone2-Oct-02 9:26 Rick Crone 2-Oct-02 9:26  The command line parameters can be used in the InitInstance() of your application. The command line is stored in m_lpCmdLine which is a char array. If you pass your parameter with a slash (ie. /MYPARM) they will be considered flags. If you don't include the slash the first parameter will be considered to be the file you want to open. You can turn off that behavior my setting: cmdIndo.mShellCommand = CCommandLineInfo::FileNew; but why not just include the slash? *NOTE you can test your command line parameter in the developer studio! see the PROJECT - SETTINGS - DEBUG(tab) Storing 2 longs in a single variable Gilfrog1-Oct-02 6:40 Gilfrog 1-Oct-02 6:40  How can i store 2 longs in a single variable. Similare to storing 2 shorts in a long with the MAKELONG macro. Can i do this with Long64? Thanks Re: Storing 2 longs in a single variable Tomasz Sowinski1-Oct-02 6:47 Tomasz Sowinski 1-Oct-02 6:47  use std::pair.

I need it to be in one variable. Re: Storing 2 longs in a single variable Chris Losinger1-Oct-02 6:52 Chris Losinger 1-Oct-02 6:52  use an unsigned __int64, something like: unsigned __int64 i64 = (unsigned long)longOne * ((unsigned long)-1) + longTwo; ie.. the high 4 bytes are your first long and the low four are your 2nd long. -c All you have to do is tell the people they are being attacked, and denounce the opposition for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. -- Herman Goering, on how to control the public War Pigs Re: Storing 2 longs in a single variable Gilfrog1-Oct-02 7:02 Gilfrog 1-Oct-02 7:02  How do i get the two longs back out of the unsigned__int64?
