Use Spy++ to find out what sort of control that is. I'd hazard a guess that it's a static control, one DLU in height.

That is the method I described in my previous post. Use the dialog editor, and put a box on your dialog (static control).
Drag it to the width you want, and sent the style to sunken.
Move the top to the position you want, then drag the bottom up. Voila - 1 reeeeeally thin box = line / separator.

Hi all,
How would one go about restarting an application ? (i.e. for re-configuration purposes)
Thanks in advance

I can't think of a little api to do it, but it wouldn't be too hard to write a small second program.
A.EXE
fire up B.EXE, and pass B its process handle as a parameter.
B.EXE:
wait for process A to die (for a finite length of time!)
start another A.EXE (perhaps with a "/restarted" flag?)
die!
A.EXE
carry on where you left off.

By writing a wrapper application that calls your application?
Why do you need to do this? Restarting an application programmatically, unless it's a service, is something that I haven't heard of.

Cause when the data in my config file has changed, I need to get the new data. So I thought a restart would be the way to go .... I think I should call the function that reads the config data ... but still a good question I think.
Thanks for your input

Do you really need to restart ?
You could just re-read the configuration data.

Hi,
Earlier suggestions about re-reading config data, won't work, see I have a loop that is running, that inserts data. I need to change the ODBC DSN connection string and certain field names that may have changed.
This might cause a problem when a update is busy. So back to my first question ,how to restart the application, and the previous sentance states the need for a restart.

What's wrong with Iain's suggestion.

I think that the current instance of your application can start a new one of itself (for instance using CreateProcess) and then exit.
I don't know if it is a viable scenario for you.
If the Lord God Almighty had consulted me before embarking upon the Creation, I would have recommended something simpler.

you could just pop a message box telling the user to restart the application...

Hi,
ConnMgrQueryDetailedStatus() API fails due to error in connmgr.exe
Can anyone write a sample code to make use of ConnMgrQueryDetailedStatus()API and retrieve the contents of the structure it fills.
Thanks

I'm developing a winmobile6 application(using emulator).I'm not able to find the return type (HRESULT)on execuuting ConnMgrQueryDetailedStatus().
Its throws a runtime error on executing the API.

You could trying running a debug logging utility to see if anything is output by the crashing application, such as DebugVew or even setup a Symbol Server to get full call stack information, but you'd have to get it to crash under your debugger for that to help.
Sorry I can't be of more help.

When you use the Device Manager within Windows to look at any connected devices (i.e. keyboard) it has a 'Device Status' field. Can anyone tell me how I can access this information?
cheers,

As I understand, you will only need the DDK for the headers when you're compiliing the application, not for an end user to run it...
Just make sure to test on a more normal envirnnment before distribution!
