The_Server27-Nov-01 22:35 The_Server 27-Nov-01 22:35  Yep, something like Norton Ghost. The only reason I want to do it, is because I don't understand how to use Norton Ghost. If you can help me in anyway, please do. 10x.

I know the default color on XP is RGB(236,233,216) but is there an API function that will return the RGB color if the Display is changed to a different theme from the control panel. Thanks, Tiegster. Re: XP themes Michael P Butler27-Nov-01 3:43 Michael P Butler 27-Nov-01 3:43  Have a look at GetSysColor. Michael Re: XP themes Tiegster27-Nov-01 6:35 Tiegster 27-Nov-01 6:35  Hi Micheal, Thanks for the suggestion. I have been using GetSysColor for the Win2000, 9x etc but the problem is that when the theme for WinXP is changed the value returned for GetSysColor stays the same. So for example if I use GetSysColor(COLOR_MENUBAR) this gets the correct color for a dialog. However if the default theme is changed to say Windows Classic the color returned is still the same even though the Menu Bar color has been changed. (The reason I choose COLOR_MENUBAR is that it is the only one I could get to match the default XP dialog background.) Thanks again for your help and if you have any further suggestions or if anyone else can help, I'd be really grateful. Re: XP themes 27-Nov-01 16:51 27-Nov-01 16:51  Another XP bugs? Post to Microsoft Support sites. A hard one:)) Changing resource language jancsi27-Nov-01 0:44 jancsi 27-Nov-01 0:44  I have this problem : I wrote a program with German and English resources . I would like to be able to change the resource language during program execution , or at least to load the correct resources at start time . In Win2000 I changed the location to German but it loads the English resources. At WinNT it works...What can I do in Win2000? plz..plz...plz Jancsi Re: A hard one:)) Changing resource language Martin Ziacek27-Nov-01 4:17 Martin Ziacek 27-Nov-01 4:17  Place all your resources in the different DLLs, for each language one DLL, then load one of the DLL at program startup (e.g. InitInstance()) and set it with AfxSetResourceHandle() as a source for your resources. Martin Change Dialog Menu Text ColinDavies27-Nov-01 0:11 ColinDavies 27-Nov-01 0:11  Hi I wsih to change the text in my Dialog's Menu, Dynamically, I have seen methods for doing this with Doc/View but not with a Dialog App. How is it done ! Possibly I have been looking at too comlicated an answer to this, as each of the solutions I have looked at Just got more and more Complex. Not I don't which to add or remove Items but to simply change the text for a multilingual application that reads the text from outside, So multiple Menu's are not an option! Thanks for your Time !

Re: Change Dialog Menu Text Nish Nishant27-Nov-01 6:14 Nish Nishant 27-Nov-01 6:14  Bijesh You are setting the command id to zero Do this instead :- GetMenu()->ModifyMenu(ID_BLAH_HELLODUDE,MF_BYCOMMAND,ID_BLAH_HELLODUDE,"Hello Dudette"); Sonork ID 100.9786 voidmain www.busterboy.org Nish is a BIG fan of Goran Ivanisevic Re: Change Dialog Menu Text Nish Nishant27-Nov-01 6:33 Nish Nishant 27-Nov-01 6:33  hmmm Thats funny MSDN says that nIDNewItem -> "Specifies either the command ID of the modified menu item" Funny.....

Colin you should replace 3 with your menu item index. 3 means 4th top level menu [0-based index] I tried it out and it works fine GetMenu()->ModifyMenu(n,MF_BYPOSITION,n,"Hello Dude"); replace n with your zero based top level menu index To change a submenu item do this GetMenu()->GetSubMenu(n)->ModifyMenu(m,MF_BYPOSITION,m,"Hello Dude"); here n is the zero based index of the top level menu and m is the zero based index of the nth top level menu I tried them out on an MFC dialog based app with a menu and it worked perfectly well Nish Sonork ID 100.9786 voidmain www.busterboy.org Nish is a BIG fan of Goran Ivanisevic Re: Change Dialog Menu Text ColinDavies27-Nov-01 8:58 ColinDavies 27-Nov-01 8:58  thank Nish and Bijesh ! Some part of this code must work for me, Actually it's a systemtray menu I am altering Rather than a true Dialog menu, But the same principles should apply to it!

Re: Change Dialog Menu Text Nish Nishant27-Nov-01 22:47 Nish Nishant 27-Nov-01 22:47  Colin You need to make some changes First open up SystemTray.cpp scroll down to CSystemTray::OnTrayNotification You'll see the following line at the beginning of the function [3rd or 4th line] CWnd *pTargetWnd = GetTargetWnd(); Comment that out and replace the line with this line :- CWnd *pTargetWnd = AfxGetApp()->m_pMainWnd; Okay, so far? Now add a new public function to the class as follows void CSystemTray::ChangeMenuText() { CMenu menu, *pSubMenu; pSubMenu = AfxGetApp()->m_pMainWnd->GetMenu()->GetSubMenu(0); if (!pSubMenu) return ; pSubMenu->ModifyMenu(2,MF_BYPOSITION,2,"YYYYYYYYYYYYY"); } Okay??? Now in your main dlg class do this to the OnMenuSend:- void CNishTestDlg::OnMenuSend() { // TODO: Add your command handler code here m_TrayIcon.ChangeMenuText(); AfxMessageBox("Send"); } Now run the program. When you click on send once you'll change it to YYYYY Happy, now??? Cheers Nish p.s. I messed up the project here. so I cant send it to you. After it was workin properly I messed it up But if you want it badly I can send you one quicklymade up project. p.s. to p.s :- you sure chris and mike will like newbies like colin and nish messin up their cool tray-icon class??
