You'll need to install Me or 2000, you can't just drop in a new shell32.dll.

formatting output (CString .Format...)

Hello,

INTRODUCTION:
I need to show four real numbers in a CStatic.
I've linked that CStatic to a CString var (let's call it statstring).

QUESTION:
I'm using this syntax:

statstring.Format(" AB: %4.4lfmm - CD: %4.4lfmm - EF: %4.4lfmm - GH: %4.4lfmm",CAB,CCD,CEF,CGH);

I'm trying to show something like:
"AB: 0000.0000 - CD: 0000.0000 - EF: 0000.0000 - GH: 0000.0000"

but I get:
"AB: 0.0000 - CD: 0.0000 - EF: 0.0000 - GH: 0.0000"

and the problem (is merely anaesthetic problem) is that each time that the numbers change they change their position too.

How should I modify the format string in order to get it?

As always thank you in advance.

From the top of my hat...

Add some zeroes:

statstring.Format(" AB: %04.4lfmm - CD: %04.4lfmm - EF: %04.4lfmm - GH: %04.4lfmm",CAB,CCD,CEF,CGH);

I didn't try whether it works.

Ok, try %09.4

That one works, I tested it. 0 is flag telling to fill the minimum length with zeroes, 9 is the length, 4 is the precision (in case someone wonders about that).

statstring.Format(" AB: %09.4lfmm - CD: %09.4lfmm - EF: %09.4lfmm - GH: %09.4lfmm",CAB,CCD,CEF,CGH);

0 indicates to fill up with zeros before the comma, 9 gives the minimal length of output (4 before the comma + comma + 4 after comma), 4 gives the numbers after the comma

TCN_SELCHANGE

I need to simulate the TCN_SELCHANGE message when my dialog starts up. Would I do this by using SendMessage from withing my dialog box? What is the actual syntax I would need to do this using Win32? eg. SendMessage(hDlg...?

Re: TCN_SELCHANGE

Alvaro Mendez31-Dec-02 6:43

According to MSDN It needs to be passed as a WM_NOTIFY message.

I recommend that you avoid this complication and simply put the code for your SELCHANGE in a separate place that's easy to call, like inside a separate function or perhaps your own message. Then you can just call that directly from the WM_INITDIALOG logic.

Alvaro

That is what I actually did, I have reproduced the code for the first tab but I thought maybe it would be better logic to write the code once and then just send the message. Why do you think that it is better this way?

How to get the printer port name á la "NE01:"?

MVH30-Dec-02 23:40

MVH

30-Dec-02 23:40

I am trying to make a little utility, that will delete from workstations an old network printer connection, add new one and set it as the default printer. I am using NT4.0.

To be able to set the default printer, I need to know the port name. When I use PRINTER_INFO_2, I get the IP-address like "123.32.12.89:XJPRINT". I got the same using PORT_INFO.

I would need to know the "weird" NExx: port name. Like currently my default printer is in port NE04.

I can find in the registry a list of my printers (e.g. \\SERVER01\HP4100 -> "winspool,Ne04:,15,45"), but is there an another way to get that "Ne04" information??

Ps. Whatta heck is that NExx: for??? WTF | :WTF:

Use ShellExecute with the third parameter set to "mailto:someone@someone.com". This will use the default e-mail sender which you have chosen for yourself, either Hotmail, Outlook, etc...

Getting free space of Network Ressources

mike :D30-Dec-02 22:27

30-Dec-02 22:27

Hi!
I have to get the free space of a Network Ressource (shared folder). I used Windows 2000 all the time, but MSDN says, that the source depends on the OS. So for Windows XP it should be different.

<br />
NETRESOURCE NR;<br />
ZeroMemory(&NR, sizeof(NR));<br />
NR.dwType = RESOURCETYPE_DISK;<br />
NR.lpLocalName = "N:";<br />
NR.lpRemoteName = "\\\\MICHAEL-COMPUTER1\\NetShare";<br />
DWORD Res = WNetAddConnection2(&NR, NULL, NULL, 0);<br />
<br />
unsigned long secPerCluster;<br />
unsigned long bytesPerSector;<br />
unsigned long freeClusters;<br />
unsigned long totalClusters;<br />
int    space_remaining;<br />
    <br />
GetDiskFreeSpace("N:\\", &secPerCluster, &bytesPerSector,&freeClusters, &totalClusters );<br />
<br />
space_remaining = secPerCluster * bytesPerSector * (freeClusters/1000) ;<br />
<br />
CString str;<br />
str.Format("%i",space_remaining);<br />
AfxMessageBox(str);<br />

I read the whole MSDN article - but Eek! | :eek:

Thanks!!!

Is there any easy way to prevent the selection rectangle from following my mouse when clicking and dragging on the CListCtrl?

Without having to use OwnerDrawor CustomDraw???

Thanks! Smile | :)

Thats the catch. I need multiple selection. CustomDraw or OwnerDraw, will that work?

Ah, in that case handle the LVN_MARQUEEBEGIN notification and return TRUE to cancel the marquee.
