Your request sounds a lot like this one.

I know what you want, it just sounds wierd. Why do you want to do this ? Is it to patch another program, or is it to hack it ? Either way, it can be done, so long as you're willing to sit with a hex editor and work out exactly at what position you need to insert your new value.

I am having problems running .exe files. I am trying to run a .exe when the user clicks on a button. Could anybody please tell me the exact code which i could write in the Message Handler Function.

ShellExecute or CreateProcess(Ex)
Have a look at MSDN or Platform SDK.
Don't try it, just do it!

if you are using regular win32 api, i assume you already have a message handler for the parent window no?
if so, then you need to add a WM_COMMAND case
and test if the HIWORD() of the lParam is == BN_CLICKED and if (HWND) lParam == YourButtons_hWnd
if so then run the app
now if you are using MFC then do this
goto the dialog designer, double click on your button
and insert the code to run your app
|

Use either of the following API -
1> ShellExecute
2> CreateProcess
Check on msdn.microsoft.com for further details on these API
Hope this helps

Have a great day ahead!

how do you start to write an application or how do you just write one, the source code that is, and does any one have a copy that I can look at.
|

It really depends on what type of application you want. MFC (Microsoft Foundation Classes), ATL (Active Template Library), Console, WTL (Windows Template Libray), and there are different types of each kind too, dialog based, document/view, etc...
The simplest way is to start up Visual Studio and then do a File->new and create a new project of the type you want. If you can give abit more information like "I want a program that is like notepad" or "I want to make a command line program" that would help define how you start to make it.

I want an application that will allow me to chose any text, file folder or line I type in to be encrypted and then be able to pick an ecryption program off my choice

It soulds like you might want something graphical to make it easy to use. I personally like to use dialog based applications for things like this. So what I would suggest is that you start an MFC project in visual Studio and make it dialog based. Then you can add the buttons and textboxes to do the searching for files, or folders and then have another button to start up your encryption program. That should probably be stored as a configuration setting in either the register or some external file, ini or xml. You should probably also put on the standard menu on the dialog and add things like options, and exit.
It might be simpler for you to have separate input sections on the dialog for text files, folders and freely entered text. This way itwill not confuse the person using the software.

I am trying to create some common controls on windows ce. This is what i am doing.
m_tooltip= new CToolTipCtrl();
m_tooltip->Create(this);
m_tooltip->AddTool(button1,"Test Button");
m_tooltip->Activate(TRUE);
this is a code snippet from OnInitDialog(). Ihave included the headers afxcmn.h and commctrl.h but i still get the following compile time errors. Anything else i need to include
error C2512: 'CToolTipCtrl' : no appropriate default constructor available
error C2027: use of undefined type 'CToolTipCtrl'd:\Program Files\Windows CE Tools\wce420\STANDARDSDK_420\mfc\include\afxstat_.h(337) : see declaration of 'CToolTipCtrl'
and more all related to the common controls.
thanks,

I want to control Windows Media Player (Play, Stop, Add files, Handle playlists, etc) programmatically using Visual C++. Any one help me? Thanks in advance.

I have downloaded the Windows Media Player SDK but i still couldn't control it. I don't see any example about controlling WMP. It just has some examples and articles about embedding a WMP ActiveX. Could you tell me how to automate COM of WMP (like automate Office)?

hi all, i hope im posting under the right forum here. sorry if i an't.
im trying to create a EDIT (text box) control using createwindow but am having a few probs.
if i create the edit control and display it on the parent window all is ok. if i display the edit control with a child window the the parent all is ok as long as i don't give the child window the property WS_CAPTION.
if WS_CAPTION is not part of the child windows style all is ok, but if its added the edit control no longer works. Its displayed but you are unable to type in it.
any one any ideas plz ?
any help would be grate
thx
Scott

id try using Create(WS_CHILD|....)
Engineering is the effort !
|
|
|
|
|
from MSDN docs
CEdit::Create
Apply the following window styles to an edit control.
WS_CHILD Always
WS_VISIBLE Usually
WS_DISABLED Rarely
WS_GROUP To group controls
WS_TABSTOP To include edit control in the tabbing order
Engineering is the effort !

Hi , i dont know if this is the right forum , but I have been coding in Visual C++. The work I do is extracting info from Embedded devices and depict it graphically . .NET seems to be the buzzword. Thanks to my ignorance , I really am not aware of the advantages of using it in my type of job .Is learning .NET really going to benefit me ? If yes is Visual C++.NET the path to follow or should I learn C# ?
I m sure someone can enlighten me on this

Overall, I always think that learning new things is worth the time and effort. It might not help you in the job that you have today, but it might help to get you a new job six months from now.
I used Visual C++.Net for a project in my last job. Overall, Managed C++ is not too bad, but for learning I would say to go with C# (or even VB.Net). The reason that I say that is that there are a few strange things here and there with Managed C++ that you will not see with using C#. I also was surprised with how many VB.Net jobs are available, that is why I included VB.Net as an alternative.
Ultimately, you should pick an language to learn because you have a desire to use the language or plan to in the future. I have done Java apps in the past, but am not really excited about learning Java as well as I know C++ or even C#. So time learning Java would probably be a waste for me.
And actually I was the person at my last job to champion the use of .Net for the project and it was a great success. We picked Managed C++ because of some of the other team members didn't know C# or .Net and we were trying to get them up to speed quickly. It worked really well for everyone until they cancelled the project. 
And even for displaying the info that you get from the Embedded devices graphically, the gdiplus functionality in .Net has some very nice features that you might want to look at.

I want to make this thing: I got a big file with vector graphics, and i got my programm, that reads this file and draw everything. But now i need to create a web based application. What way to use??? Is it possible to read this file just once, and when user queries my page it just reads already, downloaded in memory, file. I think to use a COM server and ISAPI filter. So that page can download data from COM server through the ISAPI filter. Are there any easy way???

You must to build a COM DLL.
After that you can use it using vbscript.

I got an existing project, and i'd like to make from it a COM Server( add COM functionality), because i want another programm to get data from my first programm or to call some methods, how to make it??? I saw this ability in Borland C++ Builder, is it possible in Visual C++ with MFC???.

Dive into ATL . Its pretty seamless to do it using ATL within the Visual C++ IDE
