Not at all. You continued to work on the problem, and when you found the answer, posted the solution here. Others can then benefit.

For example:
1> I want to use the application C:\aaa\myzip.exe to open the file C:\abc\a.zip ；
2> I want to use the application that is automatically associated with the all .html files to directly open the file C:\abc\b.html ；
How to use CreateProcess to complete the two tasks above? Thanks!

1. Wrap your paths in quotes (not that you need it specifically for this example, but it's good practice for space-containing paths) and escape your slashes (or use the / method):
STARTUPINFO oStartupInfo;
PROCESS_INFORMATION oProcessInfo;
LPSTR szCmdLine = "\"C:\\aaa\\myzip.exe\" \"C:\\abc\\a.zip\"";
memset(&oStartupInfo, 0, sizeof(STARTUPINFO));
memset(&oProcessInfo, 0, sizeof(PROCESS_INFORMATION));
oStartupInfo.cb = sizeof(STARTUPINFO);
if (CreateProcess(NULL, szCmdLine, NULL, NULL, FALSE,
0, NULL, NULL, &oStartupInfo, &oProcessInfo))
{
WaitForSingleObject(oProcessInfo.hProcess, INFINITE);
CloseHandle(oProcessInfo.hProcess);
CloseHandle(oProcessInfo.hThread);
}
else
{
TRACE("Could not open the process. Error: %u\n", GetLastError());
}
2. Don't. Use the significantly easier method:
ShellExecute(NULL, "open", "file://C:\\abc\\b.html", NULL, NULL, SW_SHOWDEFAULT);

Hi to you all,
please help me. I'm looking for a method, to get fully access to a network-drive. It should be like it's done by the OpenFileDlg.
Thank's!

Can a C++ shell.DLL do a drop into an application that has drag-drop enabled? If yes, then does it make sense to search for the window handle to see if the app is running, if not start it with shell execute, then do the drop? Got any code or references somewhere?
Thanks,
DD

I have created a console application using straight WIN32 api in 'C'. When the user runs it I don't want it to show up...anywhere. Is there a way to specify that I don't want it to appear as a window?
I know you can do this with CreateProcess(), but I'm not spawning a process from another one. I'm running IT directly...?
For those wondering why the heck I want to do this; I'm writing a launcher application that, when a user clicks on a file with particular extension, this program will run (it will be registered with that filetype), figure out what version of our software to run, find it, then spawn the main application with the clicked on file as an argument. Then it will quit. So, we don't want to the user to see any of this "behind-the-scenes" work.
Thanks!

AFAIK console apps will always create the console. What I do when I want an app to run hidden the way you do is to create a windows app but do not create a window. Create a new win32 windows app, transfer all your code over to it renaming your main function to winmain. You also have to change the winmain parameters.

From the description of your needs, the launcher should be a GUI app, not a console app. The app can do all the work in WinMain() and never create any windows.

Thanks guys; this was the solution I was looking for. The other options showed the console window briefly; which was still undesirable. Thanks!

How about try this?
Q124103: "HOWTO: Obtain a Console Window Handle (HWND)"
and then in the main(), do a ShowWindow(SW_HIDE);
#include <windows.h>
#include <stdio.h>
HWND GetConsoleHwnd(void)
{
#define MY_BUFSIZE 1024 // Buffer size for console window titles.
HWND hwndFound; // This is what is returned to the caller.
char pszNewWindowTitle[MY_BUFSIZE]; // Contains fabricated
// WindowTitle.
char pszOldWindowTitle[MY_BUFSIZE]; // Contains original
// WindowTitle.
// Fetch current window title.
GetConsoleTitle(pszOldWindowTitle, MY_BUFSIZE);
// Format a "unique" NewWindowTitle.
wsprintf(pszNewWindowTitle,"%d/%d",
GetTickCount(),
GetCurrentProcessId());
// Change current window title.
SetConsoleTitle(pszNewWindowTitle);
// Ensure window title has been updated.
Sleep(40);
// Look for NewWindowTitle.
hwndFound=FindWindow(NULL, pszNewWindowTitle);
// Restore original window title.
SetConsoleTitle(pszOldWindowTitle);
return(hwndFound);
}
main()
{
ShowWindow(GetConsoleHwnd() , SW_HIDE);
while(1)
Sleep(10000);
}

Hello,
I want to monitor the volume of my sound. I don't
ask for a complete analyzer, I just want to measure

Any ideas?

Make those buttons owner draw buttons and trap the WM_DRAWITEM
in your constructor <br />
CBrush brush1;<br />
brush1.CreateSolidBrush(RGB(0,0,255)); <br />
Hope this solves your problem<br />
<br />
<br />
opps !!!!!!! Add this <br />

what's the use of unsigned char? if char is going to be characters?? -a , +a ??
and also tell me who to display it in an AfxMessageBox 
regards,
Rookie

You can use unsigned char (for example) to read single byte from file without re-interpreter it as integer (positive or negative values).
But, In typical programs, the use is quite the same.
To use the AfxMessageBox you can use it in the same way of the char.
But your question is strange:
the string is build with caratchars and they are translated in a defined numerical range: so if you want to display strange values (like 190) you will obtain only strange sign!!

char is quite bad named because its name confuses too much the newbies.
of course, char goes to be used in strings, but first, that's not always true, and secondly, it does not serves only for that.
char in C/C++ is simply a signed byte, not more, not less. that means it can be used as a character (in strings), but also as an integer of 8 bits, or as a simple 8 bits array.
about the signature, yes, a char is by default signed, which means it contains values between [-128 ; +127].
but usually, the mainly used characters in the ascii tables are under the code 127 (over that, they are called extended char sets).
if you want more than that, you'll have to use UNICODE instead of ASCII, which stores a character on 16 bits instead...
to display a char string, simply use the "" notation, ,and the compiler will format your variable as needed ('\0' terminated)...

It is simply a byte, but it can be signed or unsigned - it is left to compiler implementations to decide. For instance with VC++, char is signed by default unless the option /J is specified.

I'd suggesting creating a typdef as follows:
typedef unsigned char to BYTE;
BYTE's are pretty useful in walking through raw data streams, manipulating graphics by having to twiddle the bits of various pixels, etc.
