Dear All,
I am implementing TDI(Tabbed Document Interface) MFC application, similar to the VS2008, feature, ie., "Close all but Current Tab" displayed when user right clicks the mouse, in the editor pane. Also, obtaining the absolute path of each tab using tooltips.

Please let me know how can I resolve the same.

I am using MFC Feature Pack, VS2008 and XP SP1 .

Thanks in advance.

With Regards,

There is not question here, only the statement that you cannot implement this relatively simple feature. Not clear what the problem is. Not clear how all these content detail (Scintilla, etc.) are relevant to the tab. Not clear what you already know. Do you know how to remove a single tab? If so, what's the problem?

Send a message to the parent window with the identifier of your tab as parameter asking to close all tabs but the one you've right clicked (identified by the parameter)...

Hope this helps...
