Hi
I was wondering if anyone knows of a good example of how to turn static text into a URL. I have found
www.codeproject.com/staticctrl/hyperlinkdemo.asp
but it seems too theoretical. I was looking for an example.
Thanks for your help.

There are a few hyperlink articles on this site (mine included). I would advise avoiding most of the implementations based on the static control for the reasons mentioned in my article.
Peace!

Hey thanks for that
I'll have to work through it but is far easier to follow that other information I have found.

Hello
I tried to implement your code for the hyperlink text into mine. Ummm, it almost works... but when I put my mouse over the static text it is not changing the ptr to a hand. And if I click on it, it is not doing anything. I was wondering if you have any ideas? It is displaying the text as a hyperlink, its just not behaving like one.
Thanks for any advice.

Check out CHyperLink in WTL. There is a also a hyperlink common control, available on XP and later.

Hey thanks for the suggestion of using CHyperLink. The solution was dead simple. It was only about 3 lines of code ! !
Goes to show what an elegant solution it is !

Anyway , welcome

Paul DiLascia was among the first to develop something like that and he wrote about it in a MSDN Magazine article. See his PixieLib.NET MFC Class Library[^] and look for the CStaticLink.

Hi
I am having some trouble - I have an application (a dialog) that is called from another application via the command line.
I know how to make a modeless dialog box from an MFC app but how would i make my application modeless as it is assuming the application window that calls it to be its parent and blocking all interaction with the parent.
maybe this will help:
A window within an application passes run cmd1 cmd2 cmd3 via the command line - this runs my program. But my program opens modal and blocks interaction with the calling window.
I need my application to be modeless.
Is this possible and if so any got any hints?
Cheers
Dan

which command are you using to launch the 2nd application ?
|
|
|
|

The DOS command is just browser l t r b title
If you mean the command in code - it was dlg->doModal() until I was asked that it not be modal - So now i have to use dlg->create() but of course doModal took care of my msg loop so it just creates its self and then clears off as Initinstance ends.
This is no doubt only a problem due to lack of experience so any help is much appreciated
Thanks

sorry, i'm not sure what's going on here - are you launching a modal/modeless dialog, or are you spawning another application, or both ?
|
|
|
|

Sorry it's my fault for being unclear - what happens is that an external application spawns my application by calling it from the command line.
My application is not running - the external application runs its executable from the command line.
I need it to spawn modeless.
Hope I am a little clearer in this explanation.
Thanks for your patience.
Dan.

do you have any control over how the external application launches your app ? because that's where the modal behavior is coming from.
if you can't change that application, maybe you could do something like this: write a small stub application that launches your application via CreateProcess and then exits immediately. that will sever the tie between the external app and your app.
|

|
|
So when my application call the function doModal - does this not actually create it as modal?
Sorry - I feel I am struggling with a simple concept here
Thanks

if your application calls DoModal, it will create a modal dialog. that won't affect how your application interacts with the external application or any of its windows, though.

No, He means, how you are invoking this dialog application from other application.
For instance, one way is using ShellExecute.
If this is what you are doing, then should not be any blocking.

The other application creates a window, creates a process for that window and then passes a commandline argument to the window that fires up my application.
I don't have the code as it is not my application.
What is happening is my application is then opened up, however it is a dialog and is in modal form - using dlg->doModal().
I would like for it to be modeless and hence use dlg->create() but how do I deal with msgs etc if I want to do this?
Cheers
Dan
