Context Menu and Mouse Cursor Patrick Dughi13-Jan-01 14:19 Patrick Dughi 13-Jan-01 14:19  New to MFC, so if this is a simple question, don't nail me for it; I have a CEdit-like control I wrote from scratch. Baring some niceties, it works okay. One thing that always bugs me though, when I right click to get my context-menu, the cursor (IDC_BEAM) stays a beam. I want it to be an arrow (IDC_ARROW) as per normal usage. The menu is defined only programatically, ie, not loaded from a menu resource or the like: inside my OnContextMenu() { CMenu pop; pop.CreatePopupMenu(); pop.AppendMenu(MF_STRING,ID_IMPEDIT_UNDO,"&Undo"); pop.AppendMenu(MF_SEPARATOR,0," "); pop.AppendMenu(MF_STRING,ID_IMPEDIT_CUT,"Cu&t"); pop.AppendMenu(MF_STRING,ID_IMPEDIT_COPY,"&Copy"); pop.AppendMenu(MF_STRING,ID_IMPEDIT_PASTE,"&Paste"); pop.AppendMenu(MF_STRING,ID_IMPEDIT_DELETE,"&Delete"); pop.AppendMenu(MF_SEPARATOR,0," "); pop.AppendMenu(MF_STRING,ID_IMPEDIT_SELECTALL,"&Select All"); > validation/etc snipped < pop.TrackPopupMenu(TPM_LEFTALIGN | TPM_LEFTBUTTON, point.x, point.y, this, NULL); pop.DestroyMenu(); } So how do I change it's cursor to an arrow? logging on 13-Jan-01 11:24 13-Jan-01 11:24  Hello, Is there any way to invoke/run my .exe when user log in to the system, or when system is rebooted. Is there any way to do this in VC++ / NT2000. thanks in advance Re: logging on Christian Graus13-Jan-01 12:58 Christian Graus 13-Jan-01 12:58  There is a registry key called Run, and one called RunOnce. Put the full path of your app in Run, and whenever Windows starts, hey presto !! Works for any Windows AFAIK.It's HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/Microsoft/Windows/CurrentVersion/Run ( or RunOnce to run only the next reboot). That's how setup programs continue after a reboot, etc. Christian The content of this post is not necessarily the opinion of my yadda yadda yadda.

I searched MSDN for "mapi lnk2001" and found Q188959, which says basically you don't link with an import lib. You instead have to load mapi32.dll and call GetProcAddress() on all MAPI functions you call. --Mike-- http://home.inreach.com/mdunn/ Is history an illusion caused by the passage of time, or is time an illusion caused by the passage of history?

Image list control subir talukder13-Jan-01 5:14 subir talukder 13-Jan-01 5:14  Is it possible to store the contents of an image list into a file for later use for e.g. to recreate a tool bar or a tree view? thanks Subir Re: Image list control Christian Graus13-Jan-01 8:52 Christian Graus 13-Jan-01 8:52  Has your user drawn the images ? I would have thought that commonly they would have chosen an order of images you already had, and that order is all that needs saving. The answer is yes though, if you have code to save a bitmap, just extract it and save it. Christian The content of this post is not necessarily the opinion of my yadda yadda yadda.

If one of the programs is runnning on Windows NT/2000 Named Pipes are good and easy, you can also use MailSlots or Sockets...
