My pleasure.
Sure, writing a bitmap to an XML file will work, it'd just be more work than saving the DIBSection to a BMP file (the code supplied will create a BMP file)
You'll be able to open the created file with photoshop or any other image program that supports BMP. I wrote the code from scratch, the BMP format is really fairly simple. Just use your preferred method, either would work.

I cant use a bmp file, because bmp is not the only info I need to send to the mac. I want to club whole info into a single xml file, transfer it, and then disintegrate it on the mac.

What image format does the bitmap need to be in for the Mac to read it?
It seems to me there's three steps here:
1) Write the DDB to an image stream in some Mac-recognizable format
2) Send the stream bytes via XML
3) Extract the byte stream into an image
Which part is giving you trouble?

The first part.
1) Write the DDB to an image stream in some Mac-recognizable format
I thought of writing the BITMAP structure field by field to the xml, including the color bits(pBmBits field). I convert this bmbits field to string before writing. Somehow the size of the xml file after writing the image data increases to 6MB, while the image is only 66KB.
Is it OK to convert it to string before writing?
How can I convert it to a stream?

What would that format be?
Do you need to break apart the bitmap and just send basic info like
height, width, bits-per-pixel, and the pixel bits?
Or can you send a stream of a "universal" image format like TIFF, JPEG, etc.
(the Mac probably reads BMPs fine as well I would think).
66K to 6MB .... definitely something wrong there 
Even if you send a base64 representation of the binary data, you should
only see an increase of 33%.

Use the CopyImage function.
HBITMAP DIBBitmap = CopyImage(DDBBitmap, IMAGE_BITMAP, 0, 0, LR_CREATEDIBSECTION)
You may be right
I may be crazy

you can create your own dialog and make it look similar to a message box. A simpler technique...
You need to google first, if you have "It's urgent please" mentioned in your question.

When running on Vista and later, you can use a task dialog for that. Otherwise, for earlier OSes, you'll need a custom-written dialog as the other replies have suggested.

Hi,
I have creted a MFC SDI project in VC 2008 and compiled in Vista OS. Now when i copied the project into XP OS system and opened. I can open all views(class view, solution explorer...) but the resource view...

Open your resource script file, and delete this part from it:
/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
// English (U.S.) (unknown sub-lang: 0x10) resources
#if !defined(AFX_RESOURCE_DLL) || defined(AFX_TARG_ENN)
#ifdef _WIN32
LANGUAGE LANG_ENGLISH, 0x10
#pragma code_page(1252)
#endif //_WIN32
/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
//
// RT_MANIFEST
//
2 RT_MANIFEST "XenonOcx.manifest"
#endif // English (U.S.) (unknown sub-lang: 0x10) resources
/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
It solves your problem.

I dont seem to be displaying any text
would anyone know what I am doing wrong
Stor_edit = GetDlgItem(hwndDlg,IDC_EDIT3);
<br />
SendMessage(Stor_edit,EM_POSFROMCHAR,(WPARAM) 1, NULL);
<br />
x = LOWORD(myresult);<br />
<br />
y = HIWORD(myresult);<br />
<br />
mydc = GetDC(Stor_edit);<br />
<br />
SetTextColor(mydc, RGB(255,0,0));<br />
<br />
SetBkColor(mydc, RGB(255,255,0));<br />
<br />
SelectObject(mydc,CreateSolidBrush(RGB(255,255,206,0)));<br />
<br />
GetTextMetrics(mydc,&mytext);<br />
<br />
x = x * mytext.tmOverhang;<br />
<br />
y = y * mytext.tmHeight;<br />
<br />
TextOut(mydc,x,y,"Test String",10);<br />
<br />
ReleaseDC(Stor_edit,mydc);<br />
<br />
return TRUE;

Why are you using TextOut?
Use SetWindowText.
I hope it helps.

Sandip.

isn't SetWindowText For the title Bar ????
|
|
|
|
|
If the window does not have a title bar it will set it to its body... 
|
|
|
|
|
I am sorry I really down understand ??? I think I have title bar set in in resource of the DialogBox templete
of which this edit control is a part of
|

Edit controls render the text themselves.
You don't draw the text on top of an edit control.
"The SetWindowText function changes the text of the specified
window's title bar (if it has one). If the specified window is
a control, the text of the control is changed."

Hi,
My plan was to make Certin parts of the Text Highlighted/Colored
that why I went into GDI/HDC mode
Can you do Device Context e.g. GDI stuff with a Multi Line edit control ?????
or am I totally way off base
BTW ipc communication via named pipes I finally got that to work
Can I buy you dinner sometimes
Thankx for your help

You can, but you'll be fighting the control's drawing implementation.

Using a Rich Edit control would make that much simpler!

Cool!

ok I see it much simpler the n WM_PAINT or WM_CTLCOLOREDIT
one last question I implemented multiline edit control via DialogTemplete
can I still use that interface for Rich Edit ???
BTW as far free meal I am on the easT cost specfically White Plains NY

Sure, you can use a Rich Edit control on a dialog.
By default, it looks/acts like a regular edit control, and supports most,
if not all, of the functionality of a standard edit control plus lots more...

Hi, my main program is being monitored by a manager type program via a heart beat. How do I use the manager type program to force close the application. Using WM_CLOSE or WM_DESTROY is useless because the message pump is not running anymore. Thank you.
