You need more that a "name" to use a web service.

I wrote an application which creates a hidden registry key using the embedded null technique. The key is created fine. However, when I try to open the key with NtOpenKey, I am unable to. If I try to open the key using NtCreateKey, it opens without error. I see this abnormal behavior on Windows x64 OS only - on Windows XP 32-bit OS it runs fine.
The error NtOpenKey returns (using LsaNtStatusToWinError()) is 2 ('File/path not found').
Has anyone run into this and is there a workaround for it?
Thanks!

Hello!
I want my desktop to be clean (without shortcuts), but I want fast access to programs too.
So I want to make a program that behave like a Windows toolbar (with autohide):
when I point the mouse to the top-left corner of the screen I want my toolbar to appear.
I know that with Windows XP I can make a custom autohide toolbar (with what ever I want, where ever I want),
but I want some some menus entry (like: games, apps...), transparency, sounds and others.
I think this will eat some memory (with all that transparency and sounds), so here's my idea:
I will write a simple MFC program, that run in the background, without any controls and place it on top-left corner of the screen.
When the mouse (OnMouseMove) is over the window (which is a little square) it will call the actual program (ShellExecute).
This little "call program" eat around 2,700k.
* Is there a way to optimize this program to consume less memory?
* Is there another way to make what I want with less memory?
(some Windows shell programming, but this is some advanced stuff and I'm a beginner).
Here's some others questions not related with above (I hope you don't mind that I will post them here):
1. I found on the web some classes derived from the CBitmapButton and from all of them I get an error like this:
error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol "public: __thiscall MCBitmapButton::MCBitmapButton(void)" (??0MCBitmapButton@@QAE@XZ)
where MCBitmapButton is the derived class. What is the problem?
2. How can I make the background of MFC window dialog 50% transparent, without making the controls (like buttons) transparent.
If I use SetLayeredWindowAttributes: with LWA_COLORKEY the buttons are opaque, but the background is completly tranparent.
with LWA_ALPHA the buttons and the background share the same level of transparency.
3. Is there a way to make a MFC window dialog to have gradient-transparency: from opaque to completly transparent?

We don't do people's homework. What you're asking for is trivial, and working it out will teach you valuable lessons in doing your own research. Of course, if you've tried and you're genuinely stuck, we'd love to help, just post your code and explain what's not working for you.

There are two types of questions that do not get answered here: Homework and those that are too difficult.
Guess which one you are asking.

Your own head usually (research),
I rarely ask a question and when I do, I rarely get an answer; because I do not ask it unless my research is giving none. But I continue researching to find the answer while I wait for some one to answer my question.

Hi all,
I am making one pure win32 windows application by selecting “Win32 Project” template in Visual C++ project type 2005 version. This is my first win32 application but I can’t understand how can I add more controls and use it in the main form created by CreateWindow() function. Or can I get some help or place where I can get tutorial about win32 applications.
Thanks in advance,
Priyank

I actually rated you too my surprise, good answer. I do not know what he is looking for exactly, but Win32 implies they want to know.

I need a visual c++ code which gets two arguments(year and month)from user and display corresponding calendar
program must use arrays and functions and define a class date.

So which part do you need help with: 1) visual c++ code which gets two arguments(year and month)from user, or 2) display corresponding calendar?
If you are using MFC, check out the CMonthCalCtrl class. Otherwise, create a SysMonthCal32 window class.

How can I turn off sounds in webbrowser control hosted in my application?
I mean sound when user or script clicks some link.
It seems it is turned on default in Windows Vista.
Thank you!

Hello,
Scenario: MFC dialog application. That contains a lot of regular controls but should also contain a hidden(invisible) button or checkbox. clicking on the button (or checkbox) will enable or disable some custom or expert capabilities. Only knowing the exact location of the button will allow the user to click and get the expert capabilities.
The invisible control should behave as a regular visible control.
I know that this is possible, due that I saw it on a demo application few years ago (That I don't remember its name), but I don't have the vague idea on how to code it.
Any idea on how to implement it with Visual C++ using MFC?
Thanks in advance.

If it's an option, it seems to me it's easier to just intercept WM_LBUTTONDOWN notification
messages and check for the cursor being in a certain region. A simple flag to toggle can keep the
expert/novice state.

Thanks Mark,
Now, how do you intercept the WM_LBUTTONDOWN notification from the main window before the control beneath will intercept and handle it? I have an ActiveX control beneath. (2D Graph ActiveX Control[^])?
If this is not possible, can I intercept the notification after the control beneath?
Thanks in advance.

Well I didn't know there was a control beneath where you need to click
In that case you'd need to catch it at the control since that's where the click message goes.
So I guess in that case, maybe an owner-drawn control that draws nothing is a worthwile solution.
