The SS_NOTIFY style is not welll documented in MSDN at all. If you do a search and not use the index it should turn up some references.
I use the TT_NEEDTEXT on formviews/floating windows. In the floating ones I create the controls like this:
m_LeakSensors[0].Create("?", WS_CHILD | WS_VISIBLE | SS_NOTIFY | WS_CLIPSIBLINGS, CRect(0, 0, 15, 15), this, IDC_LLEAK_SENSOR1) ;
This makes the tooltip work for that control as long as I map the correct control ID in the onTTNeedText function.

Well, that doesn't seem to make any difference. I tried adding the style, and nothing happened. There must be something else I'm not doing right.

This is a complete guess, but do you call EnableToolTips() before or after creating the dynamic controls?

Well, they are created after the EnableToolTips call. It's a good guess, though.

It looks like it has nothing to do with the way I am creating the controls after all. I tried doing the exact same thing in another project, a simple dialog app, with the same dynamically created control, and it works fine.
I am putting the created controls inside a frame. I think this is messing things up. If I move the frame so it's around some of the controls and not others, then the ones out of the frame get the TTN's, and the ones in it don't.
But I don't want to get rid of the frames, cuz the make the dialog look pertty. Now what? DOes this mean the frame is on top of the controls? Both the frmae and the controls are direct children of the form.
Now I'm confused . . .

How can I start application, which name is starting from "home" using ShellExecuteEx()?
If I try to run "homesite5" it brings me an IE window with "homesite5" as an url. It does the same for all names, starting from "home". It isn't depends of such file existance and availability via %PATH%.
And as I found, "Start"->"Run..." acts the same way. Just type "home<something>" there...
p.s. I'm using win2k sp2. win98 seems to have the same bug (or feature?)
With the best regards, Vitaly.

i had never noticed this before.. it seems your best bet is to put it in quotes with an absolute path.. like "c:\homesite5.exe"
still a newb.. cut me some slack :P

quotes will not help...
absolute path will, but i don't know it. the reason I'm using ShellExecuteEx() is cause I need to start different apps knows only their names not paths. winword, notepad etc...
With the best regards, Vitaly.

There are registry keys for installed apps : hklm/software/microsoft/windows/currentversion/app paths

Is there a way to change the default (preferred)audio devices on Windows NT/2000/XP from an application?
In other words, how can I accomplish the same thing from my application as when I change the Control Panel -> Sounds and Multimedia -> Audio -> Preferred Playback/Record Device settings?

I'm having a problem with my animation control. I'm loading a 175 Kb AVI file on my WM_INITDIALOG routine, and I immediately start playing it. However, sometimes when I go to run the software, the AVI takes a while to start playing, so nothing shows on the screen for a couple of seconds. Do I need to wait for the load and/or play routines to complete successfuly before continuing? If so, how would I accomplish that...the WaitForSingleObject routine?
Or is there something else that needs to be done, such as placing the first frame image on the dialog for x number of seconds, then showing and starting the video after x amount of time has passed.

In the new PocketPC 2002 system the background of my dialogs are white and not gray like in the old PocketPC system.
So, how can I change the background color of my dialogs on the PocketPC 2002 system to gray?
I need this, because I use the CCeButtonST v1.2 buttons from Davide Calabro (http://www.codeproject.com/ce/ccebuttonst.asp) and they look not very good on a white background!
(I am working with embedded Visual C++ 3.0 + PocketPC 2002 + MFC)

I am looking for the APIs which can show all shared files of a computer in a LAN. And how can I get all the computers' names connected to LAN. ( like LANster- a software for searching in LAN).
If anyone knows, please tell me.

I have tried the function : NetShareEnum, but it only showed all the directories that a computer shares. But I am looking for the functions that showed all the shared files.

Couldn't you just list the files in each of those directories then?
That's why I ramble so much. If you're short and quotable, there's a much greater danger of ending up in a sig.

I have made a mistake here. I haven't used the function NetShareEnum to show all the shared directories of a computer. I used the code in MSDN but don't noticed that it only listed all the shared foders of my computer.;P
Of course, if we know the directory, we can find all the files it contains.
Can the function NetShareEnum list all the shared directories of a computer? Or we must use other functions?

Hi.
I'm considering writting a program with output of the times that other programs append files. Is there an easy way of doing this in c++?
I thought that I could start a thread that accesses all of the files and constantly checks there accessability, whether they're being shared etc.
However I'm not sure about the priority the thread would need, so is there a list stored someone in windows of what files are open or closed, and if so how could i access this list? Some sort of file management system as i know very little about any of this.

NT offers special functions for monitoring folders and files, win2k should be the same but i never try.
for other OS, u have to use thread to implement ur task.

Hi all,
Is there a way to include bitmaps, cursors and icons into my application without using an .rc file and the resource compiler? Something like a library that can read #include()-able .xpm files and convert them to icons/cursors etc at will.
The reason for this is as follows: I'm writing a component that will be used by other departments here. It's written as a static library, but now in order to use it, people have to include stuff in View->Resource Includes (in VC6 that is) and the VC ide is not very compatible with having your resource.h and .rc file in non-standard places (we have headers and implementation files in separate, unrelated directories, and the resource.h file and .rc file have to be with the headers to be #include()-able)
I thought if I could just get rid of the .rc file and have another way to include resources into my project, that would save me a lot of hairpulling.
Thanks in advance everybody!
cheers,
roel

if u want to distribute ur app in a single exe file, u have to add all to resource.
otherwise why don't dynamically load from files (i.e. my.bmp)? but in MFC, i think u have to have one or two icons and menus in resource, otherwise u have much more extra things to do.

I could indeed load the resources dynamically, but that would mean that I'd have to distribute all these images & cursors etc as separate files, which I'm trying to avoid.
The main application (the one that will be using my component) does use a resource file, like you say, for the menu and so on. I was trying to get my component to not have to use a resource, to make it easier to use for others.
Anyway, thanks for taking the time to answer my question!
cheers,
roel

I dont know any (free) lib/tools. Perhaps you need to make your own resource compiler, to create object file(s) from your resource files and access them in your app.
