I want to know what are the differences of Windows NT from Windows XP when in comes to affecting your application. One example is the Windows Directory of Windows NT is WINNT while WINDOWS for Windows XP.
ProcessEntry32's szExeFile works well in Windows ME and below, you'll be able to get the complete path of the file. While if you're using Windows NT and XP, you have to use ModuleEntry32 instead of ProcessEntry32 in order for you to acquire complete path of the process running on your task manager. But of course Its off the topic which covers the difference of NT over XP.
Anything else? Thanx Smile | :)

How will I be able to get the IP address of the computer connecting to me? For example, I'm the server and there are quite a few computers that send files or interact to me. I need to get their IP address for me to use as their ID. I'm using MFC Sockets. Thanx in advance

The second argument of CAsyncSocket::Accept lpSockAddr is the address of a SOCKADDR structure in which you'll get the address of the connecting entity.

As you mentioned

you can convert into xml like this
<section1>
<Key1>ABCD</Key1>
<Key2>20</Key2>
</section1>

now if you need tool/class to read and write it, this would be good start

WTL User Interface in MFC application

There is this article on CP: A Technique to Customize the Title Bar of Windows[^] which lets you draw the title bar of an application. I have to do the same thing but all my applications are written in MFC. So my question how could I use the above mentioned code in MFC? Or is it possible? If not how could I custom draw the title bar in MFC. Or how could I combine the two?

Any sugestions would be greatly apreciated. This is a time sensitive matter.

wouldn't like to do this each time Smile | :)

, so i'll look into the article as soon as i have the time.

You can also use cotrol subclassing.
Just derive a new class , for example CMyEdit,from CEdit and overload the WM_CHAR message handler for the new class ,like this :

void CMyEdit::OnChar(UINT nChar, UINT nRepCnt, UINT nFlags) 
{
        TCHAR c = (TCHAR) nChar;

	if(c=='A'||c=='B'||c=='C'||c=='D'||isdigit(c))
        {
         //call base class OnChar() function
         CEdit::OnChar(nChar, nRepCnt, nFlags);
	}
}

After this , create an Edit box on your dialog and attach a CMyEdit variable to it. Then you will be able to type inside only "0123456789ABCD" letters

Modify Giorgi function this way:-

void CMyEdit::OnChar(UINT nChar, UINT nRepCnt, UINT nFlags) 
{
        
        for(int i=0;i<sizeof(arrAllowed)/sizeof(short);i++)
        {
          if(nChar==arrAllowed[i])
          {
	 //call base class OnChar() function
         CEdit::OnChar(nChar, nRepCnt, nFlags);
         return;
          }
 }
