tcp calls to a particuliar computer, when udp doesn't.

take this for example :

TCP : you call someone by the phone... you know its phone number, and you know who gonna answer

UDP : you talk to the crowd. no matter how many of them is listenning, you're just sending your "stream" of talks...

seeing the picture ?

i am using a combobox and the current selection is displayed in its edit control. After clicking the dropdown button of the combo box, if the user does not select any of the items in the listbox of the combo box, then how to display the previously selected item in the edit control of the combo box.
Thanks...

You will have to store the index of the previously selected item in some variable. If the user does not select anything you can show the same item that was being displayed earlier using this index.

Hi,
I think you need a member variable where you save yor last selection, initialising with CB_ERR (nothing selected) Wenn you clicking the dropdown button you ask if (getCurSel() == CB_ERR) if its TRUE you call SetCurSel(yourVar)

hi,

If you doesnt select the ComboBox then the Index value is always -1

so

if(cmb.getCurSel()== -1) //Nothing but CB_ERR.
{
cmb.setCurSel(previous index value);
}

Think clever.

If nothing is selected (i.e., the mouse is clicked outside of the control), the selection does not change.

Open a MDI childframe without using the menue

yummi23-Aug-06 22:07

23-Aug-06 22:07

Hi,
I have a MDI application with one open childframe.
I want to open a new childframe automaticly. I call OpenDocumentFile(file) and the childframe opens, the correct data will be displayed. When I look on the Document template I can see that for every childframe it exist an doc. But when I want to use the document functions for saving for example then I use only the document of my childframe that exist before I used OpenDocumentFile().

Must I do something to bind the document template to the right childframe?

Thanks for help

Problem with SetClipboardData on Win98 [modified]

I have code written as below :

CString csText;
HANDLE hData=NULL;

m_emailAddress.GetWindowText( csText );

if( (hData=GlobalAlloc( GMEM_MOVEABLE|GMEM_DDESHARE, (csText.GetLength()+1) )) )
{
LPVOID lpLockedMemory=NULL;
lpLockedMemory = GlobalLock( hData );

CopyMemory( lpLockedMemory, csText.GetBuffer(csText.GetLength()), csText.GetLength() );

if( SetClipboardData( CF_TEXT, lpLockedMemory ) == NULL )
{
AfxMessageBox( "Unable to set Clipboard data" );
GlobalUnlock( lpLockedMemory );
lpLockedMemory = NULL;
CloseClipboard();
return;
}
}

Now, this code works fine on Winxp, but for Win98 I get NULL as return value of SetClipboardData(). Can anyone help on this?

Yes, but not in the Lounge. That's why there's a red "No Programming Quesions, Please" sign at the top of the page...

Post in the correct forum and you might just get some assistance with your problem.

What work does this require ? I mean, I have no knowledge of databasis and SQL and so, but is this done easily or do you have to dig somewhere to find the thread and reput it in another table ?

No win98 system , to check this.
Can you use GetLastError to check what error its returning.
