This should do the task correctly....

CFileDialog FileDlg(TRUE,_T("file.ttt"),NULL,NULL,_T("ttt Files(*.ttt)|*.ttt||"),NULL );

Who am I?
Do you know me.... OMG | :OMG:

How should i go about re-creating my old programs, through a 100% coding or another way.

Open the IDE, select the type of project you want. Do you want a doc/view (e.g., SDI), or a dialog-based, aplication? Once the bare framework has been created, start adding coding from there.

Why functions _cexit, _c_exit, exit and _exit do not work in debug mode?

My question was is there a way i can make GUIs in the VS2005 IDE without going a 100% coding route and not requiring the .net framework to run the application, maybe i should repost in the Visual studio section.

Hello,

The following functions
_cexit, _c_exit, exit and _exit works fine on release mode but in debug mode the processes/procedures are not terminated when the functions are called.

I use VS 2003 and I use both managed and unmanaged code. Anyway I tried those functions with #pragma managed and #pragma unmanaged but the problem is the same.

Do you know why and how to make them working on debug mode?

Thanks for your help.

I use _c_exit()
It allows me to exit from a procedure/process without closing the application.

I'm not sure what you expect it to do...

"Performs quick C library termination procedures and returns to the caller, but does not terminate the process."

Mark,

Sorry for the confusion, I am not clear with my problem.

Let me give an example.
Suppose the user of my application type-in some data from within an edit control.
This calls a function which calls a 2nd function and finally a 3rd function is called.
But the 3rd function rejects the data entered by the user.
It returns a message to the user.
The user clicks on OK and finally gets the hand on the application.

So the unique solution I've found is _c_exit() that terminates the procedure and gives the hand to the application without closing it.

But is does not work in debug mode.

Any idea?

I think you may be misunderstanding what these functions are for.

They are not for flow control in function calls. They are for exiting a process (i.e. a running application).

Simple error codes returned from your functions will allow the caller to take the appropriate action
based on the value it gets back from a called function.

Use any of the below to retrive text from your edit box

CString strWindowText;
editBoxObject.GetWindowText(strWindowText);

GetDlgItem(ID_OF_THE_EDIT_BOX)->GetWindowText(strWindowText);

then create an CStdiofile object

then the WriteString(strWindowText) function of CStrdiofile to save the text into disk

Just to be clear, are you using MFC or not ? If you aren't, this code is of no use for you. If you are, you should be able to create variables you can use to access the text in the controls.

GetWindowText or GetDlgItemText will get you the string. If you know C++ well, as you said, you should know how to use ofstream to write text to a file.

You really need to start posting your code, so we can see what you've done, establish that you're really not using MFC, and offer specific help, based on seeing what you've tried.

Why are you starting a new topic for this? Starting a new topic only adds to the clutter on this board. I, for one, regularly go back and review the topics I have answerred to see if the person I answerred understood what I said.

Ohh and please do NOT delete this topic because for me at least the deletion of topics totally stuffs the board.
