Have you considered Remote Procedure Call (RPC)? There's also Remote Execute (REXEC).

I did not consider RPC, and think this might be a good solution. Am studying this.

Good to hear people still use RPC (which is much simpler than COM!)
- It's easier to make than to correct a mistake.

Have you tried Rent-A-Coder? That site handles work-for-hire, and might even help out with homework.

Ok, you want C++ this time?
void main()

i am currently trying to make my program copy or move itself into my "programs to test " folder, by itself. I have been fooling around with trying ot use the shellexecute to move it but have found it easiest to use a Code to do it. My MAIN problem is that in order to make the program move itself, i need it'd current file path (i.e. c:\\Documents and Settings\\Droz\\My Documents\\Program.exe)
I have been trying to use GetFilePath, GetSystemDirectory and GetFullFilePath and still have not been able to make it work.
Breaking it down, i need the program to be able to know and be able to print out to the user its current location.
Thank you for any help. Happy programing.

I think if you have the main function in your project, with arguments like this:
int main(int argc, char * argv[], .....)
then argv[0] points to the path of current executable.
In case of Windows applications, you can try the GetModuleFileName(NULL, .....) function.

How are you doing this?

You could use the Win32 function GetModuleFileName with a NULL module handle.

I'm looking for a win32 call that will allow me to restore the browser window I'm using to display help if it's minimized. I do have a handle to the main window.

With such, call ShowWindow() .

thanks. Is there also a call that can get the current window status? SW_RESTORE behaves properly if the window was minimized or visible but unmaximized (does nothing). Unfortunately, if the window is displayed maximized it will umaximize it.

You mean like IsIconic() or IsZoomed() ?

You have to attach your window to the thread of the current process first:

I'll have to take a closer look at that. I've noticed SetForegroundWindow() occasionally failing for no reason I can understand, but am not sure if it's worth the effort needed to port it to my c# app.

I am relatively new to the Visual C++ IDE (using version 7). For console input programs which take command line arguments, where can I enter these arguments so that they get passed to my program when I am using the debugger?
Thanks.

In Properties dialog of your project, Debugging --> Command Arguments.
