So you're calling SetThreadLocale, then LoadString and you're getting unexpected results?

No, I am not messing with the threads locale. But a call to GetThreadLocale verifies that I really have the correct language/sublanguage set.
I use just the LoadString call and it doesnt behave as expected/documented. Seems that it is related to the MMC/snap-in mechanism. Other apps run fine with similar configurations.
int x=1, y=5;
x^=y^=x^=y;

Hello Everybody ok, here is my code:
HKEY keyHandle;
char *rgValue = NULL;
PLONG buffLen = NULL;
if(RegOpenKey( HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE,
"Software\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion",
&keyHandle) == ERROR_SUCCESS)
{
//MessageBox(_T("Key was opened"));
RegQueryValue(keyHandle, "MediaPath", rgValue, buffLen );
MessageBox(rgValue);
}
What I want to do is to query the registry value of MediaPath and store it in the rgValue variable. I looked at it in MSDN and I did exactly that it says. I tryed a couple of times and nothing is being saved in rgValue. Have you guys had this problem before. What should I do? Am I missing something? Any anwer is more than welcome.
Have a good day,
Luis E. Cuadrado

You need to initialize buffLen with an address of variable containing max size of buffer before calling RegQueryValue.

Hi Tomasz:
Thank you for your quick reply. This is what I did to my code after reading your reply:
HKEY keyHandle;
char rgValue[MAX_PATH];
DWORD buffLen = MAX_PATH;
if(RegOpenKey( HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE,
"Software\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion",
&keyHandle) == ERROR_SUCCESS)
{
//MessageBox(_T("Key was opened"));
RegQueryValue(keyHandle, "MediaPath", rgValue, (PLONG) buffLen );
MessageBox(rgValue);
}
Is that what you meant by initializing buffLen? I'm new in MFC specially reading registry stuff, so I apologize for my ignorance.

It should work. BTW: 'registry stuff' you're using now isn't MFC, its plain Win32 API.

Yes, that is what he meant, except for:
LONG buffLen = MAX_PATH;
RegQueryValue(keyHandle, "MediaPath", rgValue, &buffLen );
Btw, you should use RegQueryValueEx.

It is a lovely language, but it takes a very long time to say anything in it, because we do not say anything in it, unless it is worth taking a very long time to say, and to listen to.

Hello:
Well, I started to look to RegOpenKeyEx and RegQueryValueEx in MSDN. I used those in my code and it works. The help that you guys provided to me worked with these too. I want to thank you guys (Thomasz and Michel) for your help. I really appreciate it.
Take care,

Does anyone know if there is an API call for sending an HTML mail? As far as I know MAPI does not support the sending of HTML. Is MIME the only way to go? What other options are available? Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated
|
|
|
|
|
Many people tired of SPAM toss HTML email directly to garbage. If you have something important to send, use plain text.
|
|
|
|
|
It is for a client whose instructions were: "I don't want to have to click on anything it must just be there...." What can one do? A friend I asked for advice send me the folowing reply:
No one should be using HTML mail in the first place..
It's GAY
It's LAME
It's USELESS!
|
|
|
|
|
|
No, thanks for the advice but I found a great article on CodeGuru using MIME.

Hi,
I need to integrate an interactive movie into a
Windows Application. I think that it is possible
to integrate Macromedia Flash 4 as an ActiveX
control into a host windows application.
Could you point me to an information source how
this can be done?
Thank you in advance.
Z.

Use the webbrowser control and load some HTML in it that loads the flash.

Is it possible to give a minimize attribute for a PropertySheet? If so, could you show example?
Thanks!

Just pass a WS_MINIMIZE style to the Create Function.
Have a look here[^] [MSDN]. Should answer your question
Regards,

I'm not using the Create function. I'm doing the following:
class CControlProp : public CPropertySheet
{
CControlProp(LPCTSTR pszCaption, CWnd* pParentWnd = NULL, UINT iSelectPage = 0);
etc.
}
and in my CControlProp::InitInstance, I do:
CControlProp cp(_T("Common Controls"));
cp.DoModal();
return FALSE;
======================
The caption and the close box for the PropertySheet appears, but I would like to get the minimize box to show also.
Thanks again for any clue.
William

You'll have to handle WM_CREATE and use ModifyStyle to add WS_MINIMIZEBOX style.
