You can get the whole rectangle with void CEdit::GetRect( LPRECT lpRect ) const; and insteads of set the background of the CEdit, do it with the lpRect.
Then use the CDialog::OnInitDialog (); to make your changes and...
remember to change the background of the dialog before changing/filling the edits

I would like to know if there is any way to quit programatically the usual "cling" when a MessageBox or an AfxMessageBox is shown.
I have taken a look to the classes in the help but I found nothing and I don't want to go to the computer sound settings, I want to do it just in my app.
Can someone give me some info?
Greetings.

Take a look in the registry...
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\AppEvents\Schemes\Apps\.Default
These are the default sounds.
Notice that other apps can substitute their own set of sounds for
system events by adding subkeys under
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\AppEvents\Schemes\Apps
Note I haven't messed with this but maybe it will help point you toward a solution

But oign into the registry, will be the same as doing it through the explorer... And I would like not to deactivate the sounds for the operating system. Just when im executing my app. Because when Im testing things (the error messages that the user will have when something goes wrong) the sounds nerve me. I check ALL the errors that the user can have. So... that's the reason for just a piece of code inside my app.
Anyways, thanks.
I can disable them by starting app, and enable them another time by going out the app.

Not really - you can programmatically alter the registry.
Regardless, I tried messing with this, and while my registry entries cause the sound settings
for my app to appear nicely in the "Sounds" control panel applet, the system (XP SP2) does
NOT use my settings when running the application 
Please let me know if you find a solution - I will do the same

HI,
Iam involved in internationalization of my product.
Iam loading japanese resource dll for that.
I have an excel file which containg japanese strings.
while i copy the string from excel file to string table, it is not taking japanese strings ( just pasting ???????? ).
please help me about this.
|
|
|
|
|
Try setting your PC locale to japanese and then do the pasting work
Control Panel -> Regional and Language Option -> Advanced
|
|
|
|
|
iam using windows 2000 server.
i selected japanese in Regional settings.
if i type anything in string table properties entry, then it is in japanese but anything copying from my japanese excel still showing junk only.
|
|
|
|
|
And the font you are using in Excel is capable of displaying japanese characters?
Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not money, I am become as a sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal.

Is there any way to determine the number of files and directories on a given volume without having to resort to the find file api's?
I'm using the FindFirst FindNext api's to iterate every file on the volume, for each file I then perform a few tasks. The whole process could take anywhere between 10 seconds and 10 minutes to complete. So I need to display the progress to the user. The trouble is I have nothing to base this progress on. If I had the total number of files before hand, I could compare this to the current and display it on a progress bar.
I'm open to suggestions here.

I have never faced with this functions, but...
is it possible to emulate the call of "properties" when a right click is made on a folder and isolate the parameter number of files / number of subfolders???
If windows can make it... we can make it, can't we?

Bring up the properties dialog for C:\Windows, you will see the count of files and folders steadily increasing which leads me to believe that internaly it is also using the FindFiles set of api's.
I suppose if I run a bare bones loop which only increases a counter, it should only take a second or two.

What do you mean with "bare bones loop"?
Just doing FindFirst and FindNext to determine the end of the list and doing nothing more but increase a counter? or is it something special? It's the first time I "listen" about.

That's exactly what it means.

Well, I think that it is not possible to get the file/folder count.
But the thing that is possible is the used space.
You can use that for showing the progress.
Every time you handle a file, subtract the file size from the Total size.
Though the progress will not smooth, but atleast the user can have some idea, how long the process will take.
Hope this will work. Good Luck.

This theory won't be 100% reliable. There are some objects that consume disk space but are not accessible via APIs like FindFirstFile().

Hello,
you may count the number of files (with APIs you mention) and put the file paths into a collection And then bring up a loop and start to do the tasks, and show the progress.
If the number of files are big and you dont want to use a collection, do the process twice. In the first pass, count the number of files and in the second perform the tasks.
Hope this helps.

The problem is on the 1st pass if it take 10 mins, the users PC will look like it's hung!

Here's a way-out-in-left-field idea. Start a secondary thread that does nothing but count files. After it has been running for a few seconds, then commence to processing the files. After each file is processed, update the progress indicator. This will fluctuate at first, but will eventually smooth out once the secondary thread has counted all of the files. Make sense?

It seems like that would be the only visualy pleasing method of doing this.
Through test I have found that a bare bone file count takes between 5 and 10 seconds ( on my 22GB of used space, bloated to the depths of hell with nothing but windows Vis-I'm gonna make you spend money-ta log files, C drive ).
I could also implement the Used space count, which as you stated is a lot higher than what is accessable. This way the progress would have a meaningful start and when the second thread has finished, the actual file count could be used as a completion. I will have to test this but I really doubt there would be any noticable effects, especially on vlumes with a high file count.
