For example if you hit browse and choose a file in C:\blah\ and the filename is blah.txt in the edit box you will see: C:\blah\blah.txt Thanks for any help that can be given.

Can you help me to create the pager control? Eilzabeth Re: CreateWindow Failed Magnus Westin2-Jul-03 13:00 Magnus Westin 2-Jul-03 13:00  First of all, you should call ::GetLastError() to see why the control isnt created. And my first guess would be you forgot to call InitCommonControlsEx with ICC_PAGESCROLLER_CLASS. Magnus Re: CreateWindow Failed ElizabethC2-Jul-03 13:19 ElizabethC 2-Jul-03 13:19  Yes, I did. ------------------------- LPINITCOMMONCONTROLSEX lpInitCtrls = new INITCOMMONCONTROLSEX; lpInitCtrls->dwICC =ICC_PAGESCROLLER_CLASS; InitCommonControlsEx(lpInitCtrls); if (CreateWindow(WC_PAGESCROLLER,NULL,PGS_HORZ|WS_CHILD, 0, 0, 0, 0, m_hWnd, NULL ,AfxGetInstanceHandle(),NULL) == NULL) { AfxMessageBox("Failed creating the pager control."); return -1; } ------------------------- I have the code in the CMainFrame class at end of the OnCreate function. Eilzabeth Re: CreateWindow Failed Magnus Westin2-Jul-03 13:23 Magnus Westin 2-Jul-03 13:23  And what return value do you get from ::GetLastError(); ? Magnus Re: CreateWindow Failed ElizabethC2-Jul-03 13:38 ElizabethC 2-Jul-03 13:38  The GetLastError function returns a DWORD. How can I tell from such a number? At GetLastError documentation, it says use FormatMessage to get the error string. But I don't know how to do it. Can you help me? Eilzabeth Re: CreateWindow Failed ElizabethC2-Jul-03 13:48 ElizabethC 2-Jul-03 13:48  I got the error message now. It says can not find window class. Eilzabeth Re: CreateWindow Failed Magnus Westin2-Jul-03 21:09 Magnus Westin 2-Jul-03 21:09  Hi One easy way to convert an error number is to use Error Lookup (under your tools menu in visual studio) If it cant find the window class, then you get some error from InitCommonControlsEx, you should always check all return values from APIs as most of them report what went wrong with SetLastError(). If the code you sent is correct then you dont set dwSize of the INITCOMMONCONTROLSEX struct. And that makes InitCommonControlsEx fail. Hope that solves your problem. Magnus Re: CreateWindow Failed ElizabethC3-Jul-03 6:04 ElizabethC 3-Jul-03 6:04  I got it. I set the size to the size of the structure (dwSize = sizeof(INITCOMMONCONTROLSEX). Thank you. Eilzabeth Comparing local and remote Last Modified times IGx892-Jul-03 12:39 IGx89 2-Jul-03 12:39  I need to compare local file Date Last Modified times with the same times of files on a FTP server. I've used the CFileFind/CFtpFileFind classes to get the times in the form of CTime classes, but now how do I properly compare them? The local file times are in GMT-6 (sometimes with DST) and the server file times are GMT with no DST. Proper DST support isn't that critical (I can require people running my program to disable DST), but I still need to compensate for GMT. I haven't found a good way to compare two CTime classes, one in GMT and one not. I can use the GetGmtTm() function, but I don't know an easy way to compare two tm structs. Thanks! Re: Comparing local and remote Last Modified times Magnus Westin2-Jul-03 13:22 Magnus Westin 2-Jul-03 13:22  Take a look at http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/sysinfo/base/time.asp it should have all information you will need.

"..Even my comments have bugs!" Inspired by Toni78 Changing Printer Page Orientation in Mid Stream Larry J. Siddens2-Jul-03 11:00 Larry J. Siddens 2-Jul-03 11:00  How do you change the printer orientation once it has started? I have used the samples that I can find on MSDN, but it does not change the orientaion. Like the MFCDVMD example. I use the DocumentProperties API and set the orientation, and it still does not work. I even tried ResetDC with the DEVMODE structure that I get back from DocumentProperties. Zippo! Anyone have any suggestions? Thanks in advance. --Larry Re: Changing Printer Page Orientation in Mid Stream Ryan Binns3-Jul-03 1:25 Ryan Binns 3-Jul-03 1:25  Wrongwayf16 wrote: How do you change the printer orientation once it has started? You can't. If you need to do that, simulate it in your program (rotate all your drawing by 90 degrees). I think there's an article either here or at CodeGuru for a class called CRotDC which lets you draw as normal, and then rotate the entire image by a multiple of 90 degrees. That should help .

Siddens3-Jul-03 2:11 Larry J. Siddens 3-Jul-03 2:11  Ryan, Thanks for the reply. I will go take a look at CRotDC. I can change the orientation of the page in mid stream, the problem is that I only see text. I do not see any graphics. Like lines, rectangles, pics, ect... I think I maybe corrupting the DEVMODE before I call ResetDC. If you have anymore suggestions or pointers to articals to help I would appericate it. --Larry Re: Changing Printer Page Orientation in Mid Stream Ryan Binns3-Jul-03 2:19 Ryan Binns 3-Jul-03 2:19  It seems my reply wasn't totally accurate ResetDC can be used after StartPage() to change the print orientation, but I can't remember ever getting it to work. I've just rotated the graphics output in software.
