The point of TerminateProcess is that it doesn't execute any more code, it's designed as a last resort - ie, the process has stopped responding - not really for every day use to close your program. As far as windows cleaning up after itself, I know it does but don't ask me what type of magic it uses to do it. 
Alan Buchanan wrote: I assume that it is some bug within Windows
Why's it a bug because your program isn't cleaning up after itself properly? The system tray doesn't automatically know when your program has closed so it cant remove the icon until the next time it tries to access it.
Why's it so important you cant provide a proper exit option in your app?

Thanks Gavin,
The program is installed at about 15 sites and the intention is for the program to run at all times. Its starts when the user logs on. In order to make it 'idiot-proof' I decided not to have an easy way to terminate the program (ie use Task Manager).
Its not really a bug but an irritation that I have noticed when I debug in the compiler more than from Task manager..The destructors aren't called when I close using the debugger either so I was curious to understand what was going on.
Anyway thanks for your help. I understand what is going on (I think) and have a solution if required (ie add an exit button.
Regards,
Alan Buchanan

Hallo.
Help me please.
I'd like to write a toolkit that would allow to work with fingerprint device. Such functions as getting the finger image from the device, matching with other, save in database atc.
I have a device and driver for it.
Maybe you can give some tips what to do for achieving this.
I've disassembled the driver's "*.dll"s and found functions that might be necessary, but I don't know how to work with them...

Its very hard to tell form here, what you need. Bascially most devices comes with there own SDK, and sample programs on how to use it. You should look at the manual of your device or ask the company to help writing programs with their device.

All SDK are not for free... I can't affor that preasure, I need to write it by myself.

Generally the hardware vendor in India provides it for free, else what will be the use of the hardware.

Hello I French, am sorry for my English. I have create CStaticCtrl class (CStaticCtrl.cpp, CStaticCtrl.h) derive of CStatic. I have just add OnCtrlColor in this new class.

Hi xDiamant,
I don't think you can get a button for each and every new control you design. But there is the "Custom Control" button that will allow you to use any control you have created, in the resource editor.
This article should help:

Hi, this is my first time posting in this forum.
I have written a program which solves Sudoku grids, using Visual C++, but it uses black MSDOS boxes.
I would like to make it look better using a windows32 application fashion, but I cant find the way to start from.
I want to learn how to open a file, show its content with the sudoku format and then show the result on screen. (I suppose the algorythms dont have to change, do they?)
When I open a file in my program I use ifstream file ("whatever.sdk")
When I print on the screen I use the well known "cout<<"whatever"<

Hi
How to set up a single event-handler function for the clicked event on all of the radio button controls.
I have 5 radio button . i would like to add single event handler for this all radio button.

If you are using MFC, you can use an ON_CONTROL_RANGE message map entry, like this:
afx_msg void OnButton(UINT nID);
BEGIN_MESSAGE_MAP(...)
ON_CONTROL_RANGE(BN_CLICKED,resource_ID_min,resource_ID_max,OnButton)
END_MESSAGE_MAP
CMyDialog::OnButton(UINT nID)
{
}where resource_ID_min is the resource ID for the first radio button in the group, and resource_ID_max is the resource ID for the last. Your handler, OnButton, is called with the resource ID of the button that was clicked. Note that you have to insert this entry manually; the wizards won't do it for you. It's also a good idea that the resource ID's for your radio buttons are sequential. You can manually edit your resource.h file to ensure that's the case.

Can anyone help please?
My VC++ program has 17 property pages and a property sheet with two rows of stacked tabs. I have made no attempt to implement any resizing algorithm as it isn't required for my application. Consequently I have made no use of EnableStackedTabs() as the default is Enabled, which is what I want.
The display is fine on a home PC and non-widescreen laptop, with 2 rows of tabs. However, when running on an Acer Ferrari 4005 widescreen laptop all 17 tabs appear in a long line, going off the end of the screen. I have tried changing screen resolution of the Acer to no avail. The tabs always stay in a long line!
Can anyone suggest what might be wrong and how I could get the display on the Acer back to 2 rows of tabs?
Thanks in advance.
Mark.

Hello everone! 
I found VC++ 1.52! Yay! :P
But now... How do I use it? It's so different from VC++ 6... The help files don't help me, I need a tutorial or something that'll tell me how to create a dialog-based app... Anyone know? Thanks!

You're looking for the AppWizard. I don't remember where it's at in the menu structure, unfortunately; it might be under Tools. You'll also need the Class Wizard, which lets you add event handlers and member variables; IIRC, you bring it up with Ctrl-W.
Sorry I can't remember more, but it's been a awfully long time since I used VC1.52  .

All I remember from that period was "How exactly is MFC supposed to work!?". But then again, I came from a DOS/Borland/TASM environment...

Hello,
File - New? Maybe you need to set the compiler settings for your files that it creates a precompiled header.

Hello,
I don't know what you are doing, but this doesn't look healthy! I suggest that you start including some MFC headers in your stdafx.h file.

Sorry, I have no idea what stdafx.h is there for... 
But I looked at an example one for another app, and it looks quite simple... I thought it was a huge file with lots of weird stuff... :-P
But now I'm facing a new problem... 
How do I run my dialog once the app started? First I got a runtime assertion error, I changed from Debug to Release and it fixed... Then it complained about not having a main() method, I added one, but how do I start the dialog? Thanks!

I think that you have serious problems. I suggest that you start by reading about the MFC. If you know how it works, you'll see the origin of your problems.
