Someone told me that I the reason I need to go in VC++ to "project/settings/links/output/entry-point" and enter wWinMainCRTStartup is because I'm using UNICODE. I'm lost on this. Could someone please explain.
Thanks

What was your original problem? This wasn't the link error to WinMain@16?
What version of VC++ are you running?

Yes, that's the exact probelm I was having.

What version of VC++ are you using?
Winmain@16 -- I think this is the expected entrypoint of a 16-bit windows program. It sounds like you are on a much older version of VC++ than the rest of us.
Anyhow -- make sure that your linker settings are for a console application, and there's no mention of windows.
How did you create your project file? Did you start a new one? OR did you cannibalize another one to get yours?

I'm using VC++ 6.0. I started a NEW project. Is there a way to download updates for VC++, I didn't see any update buttons in the program. Thanks again, I'm trying to get used to VC++.

updates? They should be available on the web. I've always had the benefit of the MSDN, so I am not sure where to find that. But I bet the downloads section on www.microsoft.com is a good place to start.
Let me get this straight. You create a new project, with the default settings, as a "win32 console application", and you get this problem? The new project dialog should come up and give you a multitude of choices.....

DWORD dw = 0;<br />
CRegKey rk;<br />
rk.Open(HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT,".txt");<br />
rk.QueryValue(dw,"(Default)");<br />
rk.SetValue("wordpad.exe","(Default)");<br />
rk.Close();<br />
The above code has no error but does nothing.
What should I change in my code to set the file extenxtion's associate.
In this example,use wordpad.exe when printing .txt files.

Ok, so a few years ago, someone posted an Onscreen Keyboard here that was written in MFC, and it typed text into other windows by grabbing the handle under the top window in the zOrder, and sending keystrokes using keybd_event() to the handle. It works, except not well. If you try it in IE, for instance, when you click out of the window and back in, the text comes back as selected, so you can't type more than one character, because when you give focus back, the character is selected, then you send the keystroke, and the character is overwritten. Does anyone here have any ideas how to make it so you click on the keyboard, but the edit control never loses focus?? Seems like a lot to ask, but there are a lot of keyboards that do this out there...

Try setting a WH_CBT hook to trap any focus changes, and prevent the focus changing to the keyboard window. Look at the documentation for SetWindowsHookEx() and CBTProc(). You'll need to check if the hook is being called because of a focus change (nCode == HCBT_SETFOCUS) and prevent the focus change (by returning 1) if the window handle (the wParam value) represents the keyboard window.

I am working on an application that works like a text editor, but includes special objects that, when clicked, display a selection of text with which it will replace itself. The app uses rich edit, of course (MFC). I doubt activex will work here, and even if it will, I can't figure it out, so if that is the answer, I will need help.
What I originally did was use the control's protected formatting to seperate those objects from the rest of the text, and used the object's protected text as its name to keep track of it (aka, the object 'objObject' would read objObject in the text). That worked well, till I realized that when I select something to display (when in the mode that does that), I lose track of its identifying text. I have to keep track of which object is which, since it manages the behavior of the object (of course).
Since I am going to be changing the text, I cannot rely on that. I attempted to extend the CHARFORMAT structure with my own variable, so that I could keep track myself, but to no avail (perhaps I did it wrong - anybody else gotten that to work?). I also tried using CHARFORMAT2, but I didn't get that working either.
Any ideas? Thanks.

Perhaps a better question is, how do I create my own formatting?

With great difficulty. The Rich text control doesn't support custom drawing/formatting. Practially the only way you can do it is to rewrite the control from scratch. That's one of the things I'm in the process of doing at the moment, although I haven't done much yet.

That doesn't sound very pleasant. I decided to test what would happen if I did put in a tag that is not standard, what would happen. No visible change occured, which means I _could_ potentially add my own tags. The trick is to write a good custom formatting system - knowing if the formatting is active, and setting it successfully. I figure that could be done if you could get the position of the current selection in the unformatted text (with tags), but I can't figure out how to do that effectively. Any thoughts?

I'm fairly sure that the richedit control would remove all unknown tags, although I'm not positive. It might be easier to keep track of your custom formatting using an array with the the position and length of the text that the formatting represents. I have no idea how you would actually draw this custom formatting - the richedit control draws all or nothing.

Thankfully, no special drawing is required. I suppose I could keep track by position and length, but then every time a change is made to the file I have to track those changes. I suppose if I just intercepted every char and cycled my array, adjusting every following position accordingly it would work... blast you microsoft!

Yep. That's what I'd do, except that I'm writing a fully custom one - I require special drawing - transparency, shadowed text, vertical text etc. It's gonna be a horribly long job, but well worth it - I've yet to see any decent free alternative to a rich edit control.

Hello,
In the past I have always used CArray.. I want to get away from it and start using STL's vector.. I bought a book “STL Programming from the ground up” by Herbert Schildt. After reading the first few chapters I realize that it't pretty easy to use vector.. My question is how do I create an array/vector of structures (The book doesn't have any examples that I have found so far). Here’s what I've tried.. and obviously it doesn't work.
#include "stdafx.h"
#include <iostream>
#include <vector>
using namespace std;
// My ports struct..
struct s_Ports
{
int iPort; // Default Port #.
int iFilePort; // File Transfer Port #.
};
int main(int argc, char* argv[])
{
s_Ports p;
p.iPort = 20;
p.iFilePort = 21;
// How do I do this??
vector <p,&p> vec(10);
return 0;
}
Whoever said nothing's impossible never tried slamming a revolving door!

you can define a vector multiple ways, one way (the way i use) is:
say you want a vector of doubles, called 'values'
vector<double> values;//
to add values to the vector, use
<br />
double number = 34.657;<br />
values.pushback(number);
your book should include a lost of STL commands to do, popback, erase, size, etc.

try
vector<s_Ports> vec(10);
