Re: EnumChildWindows Todd Smith28-Oct-01 13:48 Todd Smith 28-Oct-01 13:48  A program like MS Word or VS does not use standard windows components (ie edit box, listbox, etc.) to display text. Standard windows components do not handle custom drawing such as tables, embeded graphics etc. If you want to get the text from a program such as MS Word then you'll have to use OLE Automation. Todd Smith Getting a combobox in a listview subitem?? mhowes27-Oct-01 10:04 mhowes 27-Oct-01 10:04  I can't seem to draw a combobox in a listviews subitem. The combobox sizes funny. The width and position end up correct but it ends up way to high. I get the rectangle of the subitem just fine GetListCtrl().GetSubItemRect(pNMLV->iItem,1,LVIR_LABEL,itemRect); then I create the combobox with the rectangle info... CPropListCombo *pPropCombo = new CPropListCombo; pPropCombo->Create( WS_CHILD | WS_VISIBLE | CBS_DROPDOWNLIST | WS_CLIPCHILDREN,itemRect, this, 200 ); pPropCombo->ShowWindow(SW_SHOW); correct position, and width but it's height is way to big....maybe double the size of what's in the CRect. I tried subtracting a large amount from the itemRect.bottom but it made no difference. I do the SAME thing with a CBotton and a CEdit and it works fine....there isn't some minimum size for a combobox is there?? This is just CComboBox thanks mike Re: Getting a combobox in a listview subitem?? #realJSOP28-Oct-01 3:40 #realJSOP 28-Oct-01 3:40  I think you have to get a pointer to the edit window of the combobox instead of the drop-down window. You're resizing the wrong thing.

DanYELL27-Oct-01 5:40 DanYELL 27-Oct-01 5:40  I am going bonkers. I received a handful of responses which I printed out, but I still can't get this to work. I call a modal property sheet with two (2) property pages. I use the following code: CPropertySheet sheet("PropertySheet"); CPropertyPage1 Page1; CPropertyPage2 Page2; sheet.AddPage(&Page1); sheet.AddPage(&Page2); sheet.SetActivePage(1); sheet.SetActivePage(0); if (sheet.DoModal() == ID_OK) { } I have single and multiline edit boxes, check boxes, and a CListBox in the property pages. If I type the following before I call DoModal(): Page1.m_edit1 = "hello"; I have no errors. For the single line edit box, this text appears. If I try putting text in a multiline edit box or a simple combobox by typing say: Page1.m_combo.SetCurSel(3); I get a debug assertion error because m_combo is null or the multiline edit box is null. I tried typing something like: CWnd *pWnd; pWnd->GetDlgItem(); then using SetWindowText(), but this doesn't work either. SO MY QUESTION IS: How can I fill edit controls, like a multiline edit box, a combo box, or list box, in a property page before calling DoModal()????? Please, please, any response any one can give me will be greatly appreciated.

Chris Losinger27-Oct-01 5:47 Chris Losinger 27-Oct-01 5:47  Page1.m_edit1 = "hello"; this fails for a multi-line edit? assuming m_edit1 is a CString that you've DDX'd to an actual edit control, it should just work. -c Smaller Animals Software, Inc. http://www.smalleranimals.com Re: putting information into controls that are in a CPropertyPage???? Stan Shannon27-Oct-01 5:52 Stan Shannon 27-Oct-01 5:52  You can't, not if those controls belong to and are instantiated by the dialog box you are calling the domoal for. You cannot use a window *as* a window before the window is instantianted. You *can* preload values before the domodal and than, in the initinstance method, for example, load the instantiated controls with those values. "But, daddy, that was back in the hippie ages..."

Michael Dunn27-Oct-01 8:03 Michael Dunn 27-Oct-01 8:03  How can I fill edit controls, like a multiline edit box, a combo box, or list box, in a property page before calling DoModal()? You can't, because the control windows haven't been created yet. The correct place to set up controls is OnInitDialog(). At that point, the windows have been created but not yet shown. --Mike-- http://home.inreach.com/mdunn/ This posting is provided "as was" with no warranties, guarantees, lotteries, or any of those little bags of peanuts you get on planes.

Erik Hammar27-Oct-01 3:59 Erik Hammar 27-Oct-01 3:59  Hi, How can I get the position of the cursor in a console app? I use 'SetConsoleCursorPosition(GetStdHandle(STD_OUTPUT_HANDLE), &coord)' to set the position, but there seems to be no 'GetConsoleCursorPosition' function. Thanks in advance!

Nish Nishant27-Oct-01 19:00 Nish Nishant 27-Oct-01 19:00  Guess you could try writing an ActiveX control Or perhaps you might want to look into HTA Nish Re: Internet Explorer view ... Not Active27-Oct-01 5:05 Not Active 27-Oct-01 5:05  Do you mean an HTA, Hypertext Application? You can write an application that makes use of IE without displaying the IE toolbar, address bar, etc. If you are not familiar with this try changing the extention of a page from htm, or html, to hta and open it. Full Screen 27-Oct-01 0:36 27-Oct-01 0:36  I searched this forum and found articles on taking application to full scrren. I applied the way MSDN article ID:Q164162 specified. The problem I get a border when the window goes fullscreen. Is there a way to remove that border. Thanks in advance. Re: Full Screen Christian Graus27-Oct-01 1:20 Christian Graus 27-Oct-01 1:20  Resize the window so the border is outside it. You can use GetSystemMetrics (SM_CXBORDER, SM_CYBORDER and SM_CYCAPTION to find out the size of those parts of the window you want to hide.

MSDN says, we can use Dll to initialize TLS. - I am puzzled at this point. I think TLS is a part of thread and Dll is not a part of thread. Why we should use Dll to initialize the TLS? Do we use TLS in our Dll? - I am a beginner of Dll and I have never used TLs before. So my question maybe stupid. - Can you help? Or show me an example? Regards, Maer Re: Dll and TLS Tomasz Sowinski27-Oct-01 0:09 Tomasz Sowinski 27-Oct-01 0:09  You can use TLS in a DLL. To use TLS you have to call TlsXXX Win32 API functions (like TlsAlloc, TlsFree) --or-- use __declspec(thread) modifier (VC6 only). However, if your DLL is going to be loaded via explicit call to LoadLibrary, you can't use __declspec(thread), only TlsXXX. Tomasz Sowinski -- http://www.shooltz.com Re: Dll and TLS Maer72727-Oct-01 0:51 Maer727 27-Oct-01 0:51  - Thanks for your reply pal! - I still have a question. I think Dll can use its own local variable. Why should Dll use a storage in the thread? What is the advantage of TLS? - Can you help? - Regards, Maer
