Hi Peeps,
I am trying to decipher displaying different character sets and so far not too bad. Set the Charset value in Logfont and there you go 
I am a bit stumped over what Charset values to use for some of the ISO8859 Latin variations. Can anyone help?
Cheers,
Davy

Maybe you find the answer here[^]

perhaps a stupid suggestion : if you are reading external data (from a file), would'nt it be possible that IDE put you in another directory ?
Juste pour faire avancer le Schmilblick!

Well, as it seems multilanguage resources used to work fine up to Windows NT 4.0. I've been testing this now extensively and results show:
NT4 - works like a charm and as documented/expected
W2k - nope
XP - nope too
W2k and XP have problems finding the resource when the system language is different from the users language settings. e.g.: XP english version, user settings German (Germany), resources are available in EN-US, DE-DE, FR-FR. LoadString does not find the german resource but instead loads the english one.
Nice, eh? Thats what we needed.
On the other side, on a W2k french version, it nicely loads the french resources. I havent yet tested a MUI version of W2k or XP, but thats next.
And, yes, the thread locale is correct in any test case.

Does this happen in all apps or only in MMC snapins?

Unfortunately in all applications. Which means that practically multilanguage resource functionality is broken badly. Well, it may be unusual to use Windows english version with different locale settings, but it still should work as it did once.

True. Anyway tests show that in our case at least it works under NT4 SP6+. But not more with any following version.
Time to update Win32 SDK documentation on resources? Looks like.

I am using MSFlexGridControl(MSVisual C++) in a dialog based application. I want to make some cells in MSFlexGridControl editable on my wish. Can anybody tell me how can I do it?

hello
my problem is this: i build a release build and it compiles nicely
i then run my release build from within devstudio and outside of devstudio
without any changes to the code or the linkage etc settings
however, the one which is run inside of devstudio behaves correctly
and the one runoutside of devstudio doesnt behave itself properly (parsing data problems)
my question is...what the heck might be going on? its not a debug issue as i'm not running debug mode in either of them
does anyone have any thoughts?
regards
Bryce

Looks like uninitialized data. Can you check your program under BoundsChecker or Purify?

if it were that then surely the problem would surface wheni run the release build in the debuggerer ? as i've told it not to generate debug info etc

No, it will not show up. Because your app still used different memory locations. (see my other post).

No - the problem is that some of your variable may contain *random* bits. Sometimes these bit patters will not cause immediate damage - this may be the case when you run under debugger.

hmm purify falls over

If Purify crashes when run from VC IDE, use standalone version.

You mean that you can't run Purify on your machine, right? Which VC/Windows/Purify versions are you using?

Are you using Windows XP? Then maybe upgrade to 2002.05 will help.

It seems you have to contact Rational tech support.

As Tomasz Sowinski said, it might be 'uninitialized data'. Reason: if VStudio is running your application will most probably be loaded into another adress space and occupy other areas of memory which might contain garbage.
Just look out for things like allocated string memory which isnt cleaned before strcat'ing or other usages of string memory.
