If it is a simple edit box (plain text) then use Object.SetWindowText(CString).
You can use a LPCSTR pointer etc., a null terminated string etc.
For rich text it's a bit more difficult and involves callbacks etc., if so let me know and I will send a code sample.

How so? SetWindowText() also works for rich edit controls.

That works fine until you reach the buffer limit, tried it a couple of weeks ago.
After that you have to use StreamIn with a callback.

It isn't specified, but in my was case just over 4KB (4196 bytes if i remember correctly). This is the buffer size passed over to the StreamIn callback function. I assume that WriteWindowText uses the same internal mechanism.

You obviously did something wrong. A regular edit control can handle 64KB of text. A rich edit control can handle several MB of text. I just tried it with a 791KB text file (it's the biggest one I could find within a few seconds) and it worked fine.

Use CEdit::GetWindowText(). One of them takes a reference to a CString object.

Hello!
Question about UDP connections.
Is there a way to determine the destination port/address from an(y) active open UDP socket on my system?
Maybe a workaround or simple solution without using winpcap.dll.

I'm not sure but google on raw sockets I think you will find some info...
Well... I am a beginner ...

Hello,
For some reason when trying to compile, I keep getting error that TrackMouseEvent is an undeclared identifier. The TRACKMOUSEEVENT struct, however, compiles without problem. I have user32.lib imported in my project settings and I have the dll, and I have winuser.h included in my project (along with windows.h). I am running the MS platform SDK from Feb 2003.
Help?? What could be wrong?
Thank you

Got to command prompt.
Dump the exports from user32.dll and see if TrackMouseEvent is in there.
DumpBin /Exports User32.Dll
If not, then heed this warning and adjust your code and project accordingly:
Note The _TrackMouseEvent function calls TrackMouseEvent if it exists, otherwise _TrackMouseEvent emulates TrackMouseEvent. The _TrackMouseEvent function is in commctrl.h and is exported by COMCTRL32.DLL.

First of all I must admit, I am not a very experienced COM programmer.
But I managed to create my own COM automation server (exe). It runs well and can be used by clients on my development system. Now I am trying to package the server for installation on other systems.
I think I have properly created registry entries for CLSIDs etc. - at least to the best of my knowledge. Nevertheless, when a client calls "CreateDispatch" the instantiation of the server application fails. CreateDispatch returns "Server execution failed." When looking at the event viewer, I see the following message:
Source: DCOM
Category: None
Type: Error
EventID: 10010
Description: The server {CLSID} did not register with DCOM within the required timeout.
Any ideas? Am I missing something?
Comments greatly appreciated.

Hi all,
i am working on an application that interacts with a print driver. However, when i use the Win32 API calls (EnumJobs, etc.) to determine what file was printed and where it was located, i can only get the file name (not the path). In some cases, i will need to do some examination of the contents of a file - so i need the path. Does anyone know how to obtain such a thing (i fear it doesn't exist)?

I don't think so. When you print a file, you do so with some application that reads the file, make API calls to create a print document with some name, draw some content in it, and ends the operation. You then can see the print queue in the operating system, but the OS knows nothing about whether what it has to print was based on a file, its location, or its content. The print document may have the same name as some file, but for the OS it's just a name and nothing else.

can you just write a class to manipulate bits in an int, so it would contain 32 bool values instead of wasting that one number for 1 or a char for 8 values or double for 64 diff. values, wouldn't this be a better solution?
