well, looks like we will disagree here - while I know exactely who the response was for, AND what was said, on the basis of what you said to me the other night, its simply not a good response - for the reason as you put it 'A. Jones may not be as web literate' (as some of us), and 'asking questions is what the Codeproject is for'
.. its how WE choose to answer them that makes this a good (or bad) place

Again, my response had nothing to do with A. Jones. Why are you failing to see this? I was responding to toxcct's comment about "We don't do homework" being a "too bad" answer simply because it was posted by an anonymous.

Ask away, but just because I do not reply to a question hardly implies that I don't "practice what I preach."  Had I responded directly to A. Jones with something on the order of "Learn how to type; Use Google first; We don't do homework here; Post some proof of code", then you might have a case. Since I did none of that, I'm curious just what type of point you are trying to make.

While 'Anonymous' is technically correct, we do help people who show us some code they have attempted..
I'm providing a link to a site that has a fairly good intro to c++ - my suggestion is that you go there first, read the notes etc - you probably have some notes your teacher gave you - read those as well - dont be worried about it not sounding right the first time - take a break, read and re-read ...
http://cplus.about.com/library/blcplustut.htm[^]
Once you've done that, you should then break down your question into individual 'logical' operations - for example, you might start like this for Q1 :-
a) define the 'stop'/'certain' character
b) read a character from the keyboard
c) test if the character is the character defined at (a)
d) if (c) is false, store the character - you may need an array for this, then you/the program need to go back to (b)
e) if (c) is true, you may need to look (loop) through all the elements in the array, printing them out .. you may decide that at (d), you may also need to keep a count of the elements .. so modify step (a) to now read
(a) define the 'stop'/'certain' character, a counter to count how many characters are being entered (hint : int), and an array of characters (you may need to define a large array if you havnt thought of how man characters you want to store),
and modify step d) to include 'increment the counter'
you may decide that the easy way to do the test and 'loop' bit is to take a look at 'while loops'
once you have something that can save and print every character, then, make a copy of it for safe keeping, and alter it to handle the double space reduction issue .. again, write down what you need to achieve, break it into logical steps, then its easier to convert into code .. this goes for any language, wether thats c++, perl, whatever
many people will offer you solutions to the problem - there are a lot of ways to solve it .. but you are better off (as we say down here in Australia) 'having a go' and posting back here with something you've attempted.
think 'what can go wrong' - 'what have I assumed' - if you manage to declare a counter at 'a', is it fair to assume the the compiler set it to zero (I tell you its not, so, at (a), you might also want to add the step 'set the counter to zero')
do you see what Im doing - breaking down the problem, designing and then refining my design ...
I hope this has started you on the right foot - other people will probably shoot me for doing it this way ..
if all else fails, see your teacher/lecturer, even then, you shouldnt go to them with no ideas of your own

I've finally got boost::thread working in debug and release, but I think I'm doing something wrong.
Does anyone know how to armwrestle boostjam into building both the release and debug builds of boost::thread in the boostroot\boost_1_31_0\libs\thread\build\bin-stage directory? They seem to build into the temporary directories ok, but not all of them are moved.
Autolinking fails in the IDE unless I move some extra files into boostroot\boost_1_31_0\libs\thread\build\bin-stage (which has been added to the library include directories)
bjam command:
bjam "-sTOOLS=vc7"
I end up with:
boost_thread-vc7-mt-1_31.dll
boost_thread-vc7-mt-1_31.lib
boost_thread-vc7-mt-gd-1_31d.dll
boost_thread-vc7-mt-gd-1_31d.lib
but am missing:
boost_thread-vc7-mt-gd-1_31.dll
boost_thread-vc7-mt-gd-1_31.lib

sorry Andrew, the only thing I've built with boost was regex, and that was before the days of 'bjam' - it was a lengthy compile, but at least it worked ...
I couldnt even begin to guess where the problem is, maybe the targets arnt defined or something ..
I can tell you that the boost forums (from the boost homepage) are probably the better place to ask a boost specific question.

I guessed that would be the answer...
I had my fingers crossed that William Kempf (the author of boost::thread) may have answered directly, he occasionally answers questions on CodeProject
Thanks anyway,

When i call GetODBCFieldInfo i am getting:
fieldinfo.m_nSQLType = -9
which is not a valid type. The fieldname is a varchar value. Any idea why this might be happening??

Dear Friends,
I've developed a software in Visual C++. Actually it is a very simple application. With the help of this appliation, a user can make enteries in database, update/delete data from data base e.t.c. In database there are tables like, customers, suppliers, orders. So for each table i made dialog boxes. There are in all about 20 dialog boxes. (i hope you understand now that what kind of application it is and you must be thinking that it can be easily created in VB  )
Now the problem is that i want to create main user interface and i dont have good ideas in my mind. Can you give me some idea or point me out some example application available here or somewhere else ???

One idea might be to use a property sheet, with a tab for each table in the database. However, if this program is going to be used by anyone who does not understand databases/tables/etc, you might just want to present them with something a bit more generic. Perhaps a dialog with a few buttons on it (e.g., Add/Edit Customers, Add/Edit Suppliers, Add/Edit Orders).

How can I accomplish the following???
1) Any new child window is opened maximized
2) Prevent any child window from being resized either min or max...
I have used this technique for preventing min/max buttons from appearing on the window title itself...
BOOL CChildFrame::PreCreateWindow(CREATESTRUCT& cs)
{
cs.style &= ~WS_MAXIMIZEBOX;
cs.style &= ~WS_MINIMIZEBOX;
return CMDIChildWnd::PreCreateWindow(cs);
}
How can I make sure the child window is always maximized???
Thanks
Cheers
How do I print my voice mail?

so when ur creating a child window do the following
CMDIChildWnd* child = MDIGetActive(&maximized);
if (child && (!maximized))
child->MDIMaximize(); // or MDIMaximize(child);
if u want to handle it in the childframe class itslef, then u've to override the OnSize(UINT nType, int cx, int cy) function of it. see MSDN for WM_SIZE for reference
hope this will help u

Hi,
I have a MDI-Application. Now i want to use the Gray Background of the MainFrame as Startsite (i hope it's right in Enlisch). So, at first i have put a button in it: (In CMainFrame::OnCreate)
startButtonRechnungListe.Create("Liste gedruckter Rechnungen", WS_CHILD | WS_VISIBLE | BS_PUSHBUTTON | BS_FLAT | BS_NOTIFY, CRect(10, 10, 20, 20), this, ID_RECHNUNGEN_LISTE);
this works fine, the Button is shown. But i isn't clickable.
so i put 'startButtonRechnungListe.BringWindowToTop();' after it and the button is clickable. but now the button is always over any document-window.
So, my Question is, before i go to put every document-window to top: is this the right way? Or is there a better way to customize the MainFrame Background.
Thanks in advance, and excuse for my bad english.
