Re: Dialogs always on top John Uhlenbrock4-Sep-01 6:59 John Uhlenbrock 4-Sep-01 6:59  You mean like the "always on top" effect? Just create the modeless dialog box normally (ie "CDialog::Create(IDD_MY_DLG);" and you are done. It doesn't need extra flags, and can't have the system modal flag set. - John New-b question about dialog boxes RobJones4-Sep-01 5:16 RobJones 4-Sep-01 5:16  Hello, I have a question about dialog boxes. I have a dialog type application and I need to "DoModal()" other dialog boxes within the app, eg. DialogA is main app and i need to DoModal() to open DialogB.. my question is, I want to use timers on the created dialog boxes (DialogB), will the timer stay active/keep running if DialogB is "OnOK()"/Closed but the main app (DialogA) is still running? If not, how can I hide and unhide Dialog B without closing it. Thanks, RobJones Re: New-b question about dialog boxes Christian Graus4-Sep-01 12:32 Christian Graus 4-Sep-01 12:32  If the dialog is closed, it is destroyed. You want a modeless dialog box, and use ShowWindow(SW_SHOW/SW_HIDE) to close it/open it. You can easily set a flag in your main dialog to make it appear modal by making the main dialog unresponsive.

I have implemented this code.. it appears to be working but I'm not sure I'm doing this correctly or if I should be doing this differently.. In the main dialog application I use this to open the modeless dialog: void CBSDeluxeDlg::OnBAdd1() { if (!::IsWindow(m_dlgAdd1.GetSafeHwnd())) m_dlgAdd1.Create(IDD_ADD1, this); m_dlgAdd1.ShowWindow(SW_SHOW); } In the properties of IDD_ADD1 Dialog box I have style "Overlapped" if I use style "child" all the buttons from the main app show through the modeless dialog and I can't use any of the controls of the modeless box.. now to hide the dialog box I use the following code when the OK button is pushed. void CAdd1Dlg::OnBOk1() { CAdd1Dlg::ShowWindow(SW_HIDE); } I havent tested to see if the dialog stays active and is just hidden.. I wanted to make sure that the code was correct first.. Thanks for all your help! Rob Jones Re: New-b question about dialog boxes Christian Graus5-Sep-01 13:34 Christian Graus 5-Sep-01 13:34  That looks right. I tend to create modeless dialogs as pointers and set to NULL, but I like the way you've done it, I may have to try it that way in future...

See my article "Timers tutorial" to find more about it. I vote pro drink Need a good tutorial The PeteMan4-Sep-01 5:00 The PeteMan 4-Sep-01 5:00  Hi, I need to find a good tutorial on how to use MFC. Basically, what I am trying to do is use MFC-designed dialogs (maybe from a dll) with ActiveX controls in them from a non-appwizard application. Thanks. Re: Need a good tutorial RobJones4-Sep-01 5:19 RobJones 4-Sep-01 5:19  You could look here http://www.adminmod.org/karel/2/index.htm This is a "How to" type site so it's pretty basic, but it also has some good information.. Hope it helps, Rob Jones Re: Need a good tutorial Hano8-Sep-01 11:44 Hano 8-Sep-01 11:44  One of the best i had found around is http://devcentral.iftech.com/default.php it has alot about MFC and VC++ win32 programming ________________________________________________ Those that have really found the meaning, dont find it meaningful Urgent:: Problem in Changing the style of ComboBox Dhanush4-Sep-01 4:40 Dhanush 4-Sep-01 4:40  Hello everybody, In a program i need to change the style of a ComboBox (Using Win32 SDK) from CBS_DROPDOWN to CBS_DROPDOWNLIST (either way).

Thanks Sansky Re: Creating Plugins for MSIE 4 Not Active4-Sep-01 13:37 Not Active 4-Sep-01 13:37  Yeah, create an ActiveX control.

Equivilant of JScript's "split" in C++ 4-Sep-01 3:49 4-Sep-01 3:49  Hi, I’ve been trying for most of the day now to write a function that is basically the same as JScript's split function (you pass a string containing one or more key letters, and the key letter, and the function returns an array [or list] of the strings). e.g. (pseudo code). CStringList Foo::Split(CString strBigString, CString srtKeyletter) { .. do stuff here that creates an array of keyletter delimited strings return [CStringList containing the strings] } However, I can’t get it to work. Not even slightly! Could anyone here help? Yours, Peter Re: Equivilant of JScript's John Connah4-Sep-01 4:36 John Connah 4-Sep-01 4:36  Hi Peter, are you after a strtok or wstrtok type function. Its a c library call that tokenizes as you describe http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/vccore98/HTML/_crt_strtok.2c_.wcstok.2c_._mbstok.asp or use the CString FindOneOf to implement what you want John Re: Equivilant of JScript's 5-Sep-01 11:43 5-Sep-01 11:43  Thanks, i've managed to write a function using wstrtok that does exactly what I wanted. Does not ANYONE know how to kill this bug?!?!!?!?! Tommy H D Svensson4-Sep-01 3:12 Tommy H D Svensson 4-Sep-01 3:12  Hi again, Somebody has to know how to fix this... cause I can't! If you use nested splitters and click on a splitter bar WITHOUT moving the bar, the bar automatically moves 2 pixels to the right (or down). Why is that? It's a CSplitterWnd bug but I can't seem to get around it... NEW: I can mail you a sample project for anyone interested in removing this bug! Just mail me! All help is greatly appreciated, /Tommy Re: Does not ANYONE know how to kill this bug?!?!!?!?! The_Server4-Sep-01 13:37 The_Server 4-Sep-01 13:37  maybe it's because you move the mouse without noticing.
