Re: Login using my application Monty27-Jan-04 18:52 Monty2 7-Jan-04 18:52  The Login window of Yahoo messenger is a dialog resource hence the classname is #32770 (dialog) which is not unique but the Parent of this login window is "YahooBuddyMain" (classname) , you can check the parent of the dialog via GetParent and then see whether it is a Yahoo login window or not Better Yet try to get the GetDlgCtrlID of the login window that should be consistant But beware there can be no sure fire way of doing what you are trying Hope that helps Live as if your were to die tomorrow.

But is there any other better method of doing it. More generalized. Thanx Zip some files! shultas7-Jan-04 17:23 shultas 7-Jan-04 17:23  Hey everyone! I am working on this freeware application that does archiving of certain files. I am wondering can anyone point me in the best direction on how to implement ZIP from within my own code? (Preferably a FREE method). I've found a company that allows you to buy and redistribute a .DLL from them that you can call methods to ZIP, but they want to charge for the amount of distributions. And since its FREEWARE, I don't really want to pay for everyone that uses this program freely! In the meantime, what I've done is installed WinZip's command line addon, and I've been calling that with a CreateProcess() command. But I don't want to have to my users have to download and install WinZip, so that my program works. I want everything in one bundle preferably to call some code or a (FREE) .DLL within my own app that creates the .ZIP file!

I have learned C++ from book on my own because I seek knowledge and I like to know as much stuff as I can. I love to program. Using a MFC app. You can place a static or edit control on the dialog and declare a Cstring to it. but as far as I can manage you cant get it to display both numbers and letters. How do I make a edit or static control display something like “gun + 12” (space ship game I am making). .format did not work “I do the best possible thing in the worst possible way” rea Re: edit control Anonymous7-Jan-04 17:18 Anonymous 7-Jan-04 17:18  Do you mean you are trying to set the text of your control? Try GetDlgItem([your control ID])->SetWindowText("gun + 12") If you want to put a variable value into it, try: CString display; display.Format("gun + %d", your_variable); GetDlgItem([your control ID])->SetWindowText(display); Hope this helps Re: edit control Anonymous7-Jan-04 17:37 Anonymous 7-Jan-04 17:37  I may be doing something wrong (probably the case) but I tried those and none of them worked. I did update the data. Dose it mess up if there is a member variable already set the control? I right now have a static control IDC_mes, with a Cstring member variable called mes. “I do the best possible thing in the worst possible way” rea “I do the best possible thing in the worst possible way” rea Re: edit control jhwurmbach7-Jan-04 20:49 jhwurmbach 7-Jan-04 20:49  It is probably best if you leave the 'UpdateData' stuff alone, declare a control variable (thats of type CEdit for a editbox and CStatic for static text) and use SetWindowText / GetWindowText on it. This way you have the fuill control over when and what is written to your dialog. Who is 'General Failure'? And why is he reading my harddisk?!? How to determine which ethernet adapter is renewable? darkaeon7-Jan-04 17:08 darkaeon 7-Jan-04 17:08  Hi everyone, I'm writing a program that deals with packet routing. My problem is, when my application exits, I need to renew (by using IpRenewAddress) all interfaces so that I can restore the adapters to the way it was before my program took over. This process doesn't take long UNLESS u have things like network bridges. These virtual adapters are not renewable and when my application tries to renew them, it takes forever. Is there a way for me to determine which adapter is actually renewable and which is not? Thanks! open/close explorer question Member 8059997-Jan-04 14:22 Member 805999 7-Jan-04 14:22  Hello All, I'm a newbie on VC++ and i'm writing an application that able to open/close explorer.exe on the desktop. is there any method to do this??

Re: open/close explorer question Monty27-Jan-04 18:23 Monty2 7-Jan-04 18:23  If you want to Open and then Close explorer you can use CreateProcess to Open which will return a HANDLE using that handle you can close the explorer using TerminateProcess Live as if your were to die tomorrow.

Re: Back ground of a Listbox Monty27-Jan-04 18:43 Monty2 7-Jan-04 18:43  Derive a class from listbox and handle OnEraseBackground and paint the BMP might work Live as if your were to die tomorrow.
