Then you need to convert it to a DLL, or a COM server.

thanks for your reply..
if i dont want to use the DLL or COM as well as the EXE, is there is any other way to execute the application???
as we know that application will open by calling the "CreateWindow" and "ShowWindow" function.
can we call such function from another application??????????

Short answer: No. Longer answer: You can use the CreateProcess[^] function, but that seems not to be what you want. Perhaps you could explain in better detail exactly what you are trying to do.

A single question mark is sufficient.

I am using VC++/C++ in my product, in which i want to add one functionality (Picture Viewer).
Which I got from NET, shown in the following link.
http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/5065/Thumbnails-viewer-and-image-processing-using-GDI-a
Now I want to add this functionality in my product (simply when user clicks the button).

Then you need to take the source code from the article and modify it to your needs.

I am with Richard - He forgot to mention that you could also make it a static library (*.lib).
In other news:
A Java backend, Windows Service or RESTful API would probably do the job, too - You get the idea.

No, I deliberately did not mention it since very few people seem to understand that such a thing exists, even though in practically every case, it would be more efficient than a DLL.

Alright, I didn't want to accuse you of anything wrong - I think it is easier to use, and, in most cases it is faster.

You didn't; I was just explaining why I only suggested a DLL - but I may also suggest .LIB in future.

I have an MFC C++ desktop application (unmanaged code)that still uses DBGrid. What control would be a good replacement. I am displaying record sets in the control, fixing the number of rows in the control and range checking each cell value when leaving the cells. Vertical scrolling may be necessary.
Thanks for your input

Is there something specific that DBGrid (I'm not familiar with it) doesn't give you, or is it looking dated, or ...?

DBGrid is dated. I have a number of annoyances with it, I have listed some of my issues below.
Documentation is scarce.
It is not well supported in VS2012. One can crash VS2012 by editing through the Property Pages dialog (try setting the headfont to bold).
Trying to provide error checking on a cell basis when leaving a cell seems dependent on what method you chose to leave the cell(Tab key versus arrow key).
It is slow to fill from a database.
The necessity to change rows before an update is done to the data.

Hi,
I'm reading this old article about window regions from file: CreateRegionFromFile[^]
Sice this article is very old, I'd like to know if there is a better solution for this, and also if there is a quick way to do this using Codeblocks instead of VC++ dependant code.
Thanks for the help,
Luca

Thank you very much, using this tutorial I was able to build regions on codeblocks!

Don't think there's a "quick way" of doing this... if using codeblocks, you have to work directly with the WinAPI, so it's not exactly trivial. I don't believe this is a widely supported action so frameworks don't really include an easy way to do this.

Thanks to both for the reply.
