If i can understand your question i use InstallShield the part of Visual Studio and its help but as i said before the my probem is having .ocx .dll to know if these files are already registered in that machine or not.
Sorry for telling my story anew.![Rose | [Rose]](https://www.codeproject.com/script/Forums/Images/rose.gif)

Hi,
If I understand your question correctly, what you need to do is create a "Component" specifically for these shared self-registering files. If you select the Component in InstallShield, and look at its properties, you will find one for "Overwrite". What you need to do is select the criteria for overwrite. Usually, you will probably want to choose "Overwrite files BY VERSION THEN DATE" with both the NEWER options as well. This means the install will only ever overwrite these files if they have a higher version than the currently installed ones.
The self-registering bit is a whole other kettle of fish. You need to create a "File Group" for self-registering files as well (basically, the Component I mentioned above will contain this "File Group"). If you view the File Group properties, there is a self-registering option which will allow you to mark all of the files in this File Group as self-registering.
So, if you create a Component and File Group as described, Installshield SHOULD check the version of existing OCX and DLL files, overwrite them if your installer's files have a higher version, and then register them. Note that if a program on the install machine is using one of these registered files, you will get the "You need to reboot your machine..." message once the install is finished, and Installshield will register these files after the restart.
Hope this helps.

After years of default Msdev looking I have completely reworked its toolbar and menu, added a lot of tool found here and added several custom icon.
Now how can I save all this modification in order to restore after an (eventual) crash or to restore on another computer to have exactly the same environnement ?
Thanks for any help I searched but didn't found anything on this.

The following proc should find the record(contract)in db based on type(takes the position in the file and compare to the Type in the db).Proc. should return contract for use in different proc.
Please help...I can't understand why it's not working.
dbproc_get1 ->connection to SQL
int find_record()
{dbcmd (dbproc_get1, "select contract from type");
dbfcmd(dbproc_get1,"where type = %d",Type);
// Send the command to SQL Server and start execution.
dbsqlexec (dbproc_get1);
// Process the results.
if (dbresults (dbproc_get1) == SUCCEED)
{dbbind (dbproc_get1, 1, INTBIND, 0, (BYTE *) &contract);
while (dbnextrow (dbproc_get1) != NO_MORE_ROWS)
return(1);
}

Try appending an extra space to the first SQL string.
dbcmd (dbproc_get1, "select contract from type ");

I've never used CTreeCtrl before. They seem pretty straightforward an far as populating the tree items but I was wondering what the best way is to display a directory listing, similar to the openfile dialog or explorer directory tree, on a control on a custom dialog.

How do I change the color of my dialog? I have tried to use setBkColor but I haven't managed to get it to work. I also want to set backgroundcolor on a static text.
First I must get a reference to the text and then set the backcolor I guess?
How do I get this reference?

Respond to the WM_CTLCOLOR message, CTLCOLOR_DLG, and set the brush.

Hello all,
I've created new MFC AppWizard(exe) (SDI, but it doesn't matter),
my CView-class was inherited from CRichEditView class
(I turned on OLE support),
so, that's ok. It's compiled and worked.
Then I entered some character and tried to print them.
When I tried to do it on my Win2k server (service pack 2) I've got an extra blank page  printed.
On NT 4.0 (Service Pack 6e) everything is OK.
I use MSVS 6.0 Service Pack 5.
So ?

Hello!
I'm trying to use COleDateTime::ParseDateTime to parse a string according to a format that isn't in the locale. I use
SetLocaleInfo(LOCALE_USER_DEFAULT,LOCALE_SSHORTDATE,myFormat); to set the date format and then ParseDateTime(myDateStr);
But ParseDateTime will return an error and the date isn't valid.
Anyone that know how to make this work!??

The last param in the ParseDateTime method is used to specify a locale ID. Have you tried this?
|
|
|
|
|
Yes, I have tried the LDID param in ParseDateTime and it will change the date format according to the country standard. I have two problems with this:
First, I don't know all countries date format
Second, the dates that I have to parse are not likely to follow any known standard.
The people that have entered these dates (as text) have just made up a standard as they typed and different persons used different standards  e.g.
Hmmm.... maybe I can add a new country?
Thanks for your reply!

Hi,
Does anyone know if there is an API or some other means of determining what type of connection speed (e.g. 64K, 128K, T1 etc.) the computer has to the internet?
Thanks in advance

I want to get a pointer to a desired view through the document templates, then through the opened documents in each template and then through the opened views of each document until I get the view. It's a single document..
Oys

An Application can have one or more DocTemplates. Each of them can have one or more documents. And each Document can have one or more views. So actually if you want one particular view you will have to have three levels of loops.
Anyway here is a broad outline of how to get a view from Anywhere in the app.
[ccode]
CMyApp *pApp = AfxGetApp();
CDocTemplate* pDocTemplate;
CDocument* pDoc;
POSITION rPos1,rPos2,rPos3;
CView* pView;
rPos1 = pApp->GetFirstDocTemplatePosition();
while (rPos1)
{
pDocTemplate = GetNextDocTemplate(rPos1);
if (pDocTemplate)
{
rPos2 = pDocTemplate->GetFirstDocPosition();
while(rPos2)
{
pDoc = pDocTemplate->GetNextDoc(rPos2);
if (pDoc)
{
rPos3 = pDoc->GetFirstViewPosition();
while (rPos3)
{
pView = GetNextView(rPos3);
if (pView)
{
// check if this is the desired view and do
// your stuff
}
}
}
}
}
[/ccode]
Tell me if this helps.

Thanks for your help.
I think it worked to get the views. I have two views in my application and the while loop goes twice in "while(rPos3)".But what do I write in the if(pView == ???????) how do I know the identifier of my desired view. When I get the correct view how do I access the function setUsers() in this view. The view is named CTableview and I've derived it from CFormView.
Oys

try this:
#include "tableview.h"
...
if (pView->IsKindOf(RUNTIME_CLASS(CTableview))) {
CTableview* pTableview = (CTableview*)pView;
pTableview->setUsers();
}
...
CTableview would have to be at least DECLARE_DYNAMIC.
A note: I've used the ol'-fashion casting here ((CTableview*)pView) - I'm sure there's a lot of C++ gurus out there that want you to use static_cast<> or dynamic_cast<> or whatever instead - but I've never figured out which one to use so I stick with the old one.
good luck
Steen.
