Can Visual C++ 6.0 open a MS Access97 with option password? Anonymous1-Aug-02 4:58 Anonymous 1-Aug-02 4:58  Hi, I would like to know that Visual C++ 6.0 can use ClassWizard with CDaoRecordset to open a MS Access 97 file or not? a) I create a simple trypassword97.mdb (attached) with 1 row & 2 columns b) Using password option (password = 12345) c) Every thing is OK d) But in Visual C++ 6.0 Application, when I use the ClassWizard --> Member Variable --> Add Classe --> New --> Filename.cpp --> CDaoRecordset --> trypassword97.mdb --> "Invalid passord!" ... I could not open that mdb file! *) That means somehow Visual C++ must know the password (12345) to open the trypassword97.mdb 1) Can any one help me about this (above)? 2) In programing (at run time) at any time when I try to open it, what command line to use (with password?) to open it? I appreciate very much for any help! Thanks, Anh Truong Re: Can Visual C++ 6.0 open a MS Access97 with option password?

Re: I think that only help at Run time not when using Classwizard! Anonymous2-Aug-02 3:49 Anonymous 2-Aug-02 3:49  Hi Tomasz, Thank you for your guide of info. I did take a look and will try at Run Time! But my problem is that I could not use Visual C++ 6.0 ClassWizard to open my MS Access file which created "before" and using option password! Can you clarify this? Many thanks, Anh Truong Re: I think that only help at Run time not when using Classwizard!

I'm afraid you're stuck with the problem. KB article Q153291 describes this issue, but doesn't offer any reasonable solution.

Anonymous2-Aug-02 4:55 Anonymous 2-Aug-02 4:55  Hi Tomasz, You did help me a lot so that I will not search more info. to fix my problem! I think I should create a MS Access mdb file "without security password" from its environment to avoid the problem when I use ClassWizard! I will use at Run Time instead (I hope that it will work) Many thanks for helps Anh Truong Programatically create a .RES file Pete Bassett1-Aug-02 4:56 Pete Bassett 1-Aug-02 4:56  Hi all. Could someone tell me how to take some resource strings I have in an access db and write then to a valid .RES file so I can include it in my program? There has to be a API for writting to .RES files surely? Or some other simple way. Thanks. Pete Re: Programatically create a .RES file Tomasz Sowinski1-Aug-02 5:01 Tomasz Sowinski 1-Aug-02 5:01  There's an API for changing resources in PE files (.exe and .dlls), however, it's available only on NT/2K/XP (UpdateResource and friends). If you need .res file, then you'll be linking next. Why don't you write .rc and invoke Resource Compiler? Tomasz Sowinski -- http://www.shooltz.com - It's for protection - Protection from what? Zee Germans? Re: Programatically create a .RES file Pete Bassett1-Aug-02 5:16 Pete Bassett 1-Aug-02 5:16  Thanks for the swift reply... Writing an RC file would be acceptable...What exe is the resource compiler? and how to use it? Can't you tell I've never been outside an IDE before!

Re: Programatically create a .RES file Daniel Lohmann1-Aug-02 8:26 Daniel Lohmann 1-Aug-02 8:26  You could also include the created RC file into your own projects RC file. Then you don't have to invoke RC.EXE to compile it. -- Daniel Lohmann http://www.losoft.de (Hey, this page is worth looking! You can find some free and handy NT tools there ) Re: Programatically create a .RES file Pete Bassett2-Aug-02 6:59 Pete Bassett 2-Aug-02 6:59  Its going to be a .RES for for use in a VB app...Thats the problem, you cant use .RC files in VB. Damn! Pete OpenPrinter... March'1-Aug-02 4:45 March' 1-Aug-02 4:45  When I call OpenPrinter, it fails and GetLastError() returns 87 -> ERROR_INVALID_PARAMETER it's the last parameter ! i know this because this is the one i don't know how to init. it's a PRINTER_DEFAULTS struct. if somebody knows how to init this struct, post me the tips ! See you later on the web !

What's the best way to implement this? I just need a simple solution, one that will prevent normal users from bypassing the expiration. Thanks! Johnny Wood Re: Program expiration Chris Losinger1-Aug-02 4:47 Chris Losinger 1-Aug-02 4:47  1. get the current time 2. read a registry key that your program owns HKCU/Software/MyCompany/Whatever... 3. if that key doesn't exist, create it and write the current time there. this wil happen the first time your app runs. 4. if the key does exists, read the time stamp that was stored there and compare it to the current time. -c To explain Donald Knuth's relevance to computing is like explaining Paul's relevance to the Catholic Church.

Re: Program expiration includeh101-Aug-02 4:49 includeh10 1-Aug-02 4:49  save lastest date in register or a file, make sure ur user can't find it avoid to use 'current time', so if user changes time setting, the app still expired includeh10 Re: Program expiration Peter Occil1-Aug-02 9:02 Peter Occil 1-Aug-02 9:02  There is an article on this site regarding this: CExpire Peter O. file manager, a open resource for user? includeh101-Aug-02 4:37 includeh10 1-Aug-02 4:37  in file manager, we can see many info: 1. disks, folders and files 2. network connections 3. .... some time i want to access those info directly, but i have no idea. i.e. 'find file' only can find folder, file and is very slow. if use resource in file manager, it should be faster. and how to get network info? i guess microsoft keeps it as itsown secret, am i wrong? includeh10 GetPrinterDeviceDefaults and NT4 matura1-Aug-02 4:18 matura 1-Aug-02 4:18  I have a code snippet that just doesn't seem to work on 2 NT4 machines here(Win2K/98 are fine). Here's the code: PRINTDLG pdlg; ZeroMemory(&pdlg, sizeof(PRINTDLG)); pdlg.lStructSize=(DWORD)sizeof(PRINTDLG); BOOL bVal = AfxGetApp()->GetPrinterDeviceDefaults(&pdlg); Even though both NT machines have default printers setup, bVal returns FALSE every time. Any ideas? ip address, who is god for it? includeh101-Aug-02 4:16 includeh10 1-Aug-02 4:16  i connect internet vs telephone line, so i have an ip address (in format of 111.111.111.111). but if i disconnect internet, i have nothing (ipconfig says nothing). i think the number is related to my internet vender, possible related to my PC (adapter etc) also, maybe more. i think if i change a vender or change a modem (or PC), the number must be changed. do you kown story of the number? thx includeh10 Re: ip address, who is god for it? Chris Losinger1-Aug-02 4:21 Chris Losinger 1-Aug-02 4:21  if you dial up you will almost certainly get a temporary IP from one of the numbers your ISP has reserved. it isn't related at all to your PC or modem, but it is related to your vendor (ISP). -c To explain Donald Knuth's relevance to computing is like explaining Paul's relevance to the Catholic Church.

Maybe "TCP/IP for dummies" will do good to you. At least, I learn a lot from it. As Chris has said, the IP address is assigned to you by your ISP. usually, your IP is a dynamic one. You don't need to wait for tomorrow, just connect again, and you'll find it's different. Yes, it is different every time. That's how ISP manages the IP address resource. Re: ip address, who is god for it? includeh101-Aug-02 5:11 includeh10 1-Aug-02 5:11  i remember i studied a master subject called 'network ...', but i returned all to my teacher. i really need a dummy book now, good suggestion. thx includeh10
