(Did you try both methods?) Explain exactly where you are trying to drop the dialog. Also, are you sure the target RC file (and it's Resource.h file) are not read-only?
Peace!

Perhaps the problem is with using DevStudio. I'm simply using two instances of Visual C++ 6. Is that the same thing?

No. All that should happen then is the "other" DevStudio showing a message that a file has been modified and should be reloaded (if it had that file opened at the time it was changed).
BTW: You should be doing the Drag-N-Drop only across a single instance of DevStudio... Just open both files in DevStudio.
Peace!

To copy a dialog D from project P1 into project P2, do the following:- Open project P2 in DevStudio and click the Resources tab when the project has loaded.
- Drag P1.rc into DevStudio. It will display as a group of resources. Select the dialog (or any other resource) you want to copy, and do Edit|Copy.
- Click the root of project P2's resource tree and do Edit|Paste.
This will copy the resource (but not the source files). You'll need to copy (and later edit) the appropriate files to P2's directory and Project|Add|Files them to the project.

I tried this as well. When I select the destination Resource tree "Paste" is greyed out.

Kevin,
Are you accessing your project thru a version control system like SourceSafe or ClearCase? If so, you'll first need to check out the P2.rc and P2's resource.h files in order to modify them. If not, make sure these files aren't read-only. Hope this helps.

Like the subject says, I'm trying to build an application which will detect a user's current network settings and, if not found, install TCP/IP. Right now I've got a working application, but it's a bunch of registry hacks and requires a reboot.
If anyone can at least point me in the right direction, I'd be most gratefull. I'd assume there's a bunch of functions that handle this functionality for me instead of having to manually edit the registry. I just have yet to find anything that covers this topic.
Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Did you manage to install TCP/IP programmatically? Well, congratulations, but chances are your code works only for your particular OS and SP. I'm afraid there's nothing like a system API that you can call to initiate the intallation of the TCP/IP stack. Best way to deal with this is IMHO to instruct the user to manually install the TCP/IP stuff himself. Remember that in order to do that the user will have to insert his own Windows CD (providing the required files yourself would be illegal).

IMHO, this is a very very very very very very very very very bad idea.

I briefly worked on a firewall app that did programatically install networking components. However, the APIs are totally undocumented (and for good reason). I never saw the code, so I don't know what the APIs are, but they do exist.

Hey Folks,
Has anyone had any luck with displaying MessageBoxes at the highest z-order?
I have a multi-dialog application which generates error-messages, but often, the messagebox is hidden behind another dialog.
For the MessageBox HWND, I've tried various things, including GetFocus(), etc, but I get various results... Is there a function which returns an HWND that might get me the results I want?

Have you tried any of the flags MB_SYSTEMMODAL and MB_TASKMODAL? Check the documentation of ::MessageBox for more info.

str.FormatMessage(_T("%1!d! of %2!d! developers agree: Hockey is %3%!"), nAgree, nAsked, _T("Best"));
What do the "!" do in the formatted string? I've never seen this syntax before.

It is an extended format syntax explained in the documentation for ::FormatMessage which follows the pattern
%index!format_specifier!
where index selects the parameter to replace the slot with, and format_specifier is an optional specifier following the syntax of printf and related functions.

Ok, then that explains why CString::FormatMessage(...) "allows for the parameters to be inserted in an arbitrary order."
In my particular case, this must be used by Localization in case they need to reorder parameters in the strings.
Thanks.

What about ?

Hi
Does anyone know a free C/C++ compiler that will produce 16-bit dll:s for windows?

Try in the Borland Site...

Failure, unfortunately. Thanks anyway.

The Free C/C++ Compilers section of thefreecountry.com lists several products that might do for you (like the old Turbo C compilers that are listed here as offered for free).
