I am looking to play multimedia files such as .avi in my project but I do not want to use an ActiveMovie Control or any other premade type viewer. I have done it with ActiveMovie3 and would now like...

As far as I can tell, the error is generated when information is sent from the host to a client which has locked up. I need to dig a bit deeper to be sure though. If it is the action of sending that...

My programs will in most circumstances be used for less than 2 hours at a time. I had thought about having some sort of validation code sent on regular intervals, but was hoping that there was an...

I would be happy to help you (if I can). I will tell you what I do in establishing CSocket connections. I don't know if it is the best way but it works for me and I try to keep things simple.
First,...

Alright, I am using a Modelless dialog in my dialog project. I have made the instance of the modelless dialog a member variable of the main dialog so as to try to stop memory leaks. However, if I...

Now that you mention it, you are probably right about the memory leak thing. I will go about it your way. Thanks for the help. I appreciate it.

Thank you. That was very helpful.

Ahha. That makes sense. I should have known. Thanks alot.

I am trying to create and use some modelless dialogs in my dialog based project. I can't seem to get it to work although I am following MSDN exactly (as far as I know). This is what I am doing to try...

Thank you very much.

Ok, so what is the difference between the terms "argument" and "parameter." I know one is the actual variable passed in a function call and the other is the variable that the function is looking for...

I am working on an internet project in which I have created a client program and server program that interact. Multiple clients access the server at once. My trouble: when a client machine locks up...

Perfect! I appreciate the help with silly little things like this. Thank you.

I have a combobox full of usernames. I wish to get the currently selected username (as a CString NOT the index of the string in the list because the contents of the list change at runtime and I will...

Thanks.

Perfect! Although now I need a property or function that will tell me if the dialog is currently maximized. I cant find one in MSDN. Ideas?

Ok, I have another one for ya. I need to be able to programatically check if the window is already maximized, but I cannot find a property/method for it in MSDN. Help?

Thank you very much.

How would I go about minimizing or maximizing my dialog programatically?
Thanx

I am wanting to put some CButtons on my dialog that are the same size as buttons on toolbars. Problem is I dont know how big the buttons on toolbars are. Also, just for my own enlightenment, are the...

use the function:
WinExec("someapp.exe", SW_SHOW);
if you dont specify a pathname it will search directories in a specific order. Check out WinExec in the index in MSDN.
Hope this helps

thanks, the RemoveAt() and RemoveAll() functions were CObjectArray base functions and for CObjectArray they do not free the objects. But I guess in the case of CStringArray the strings are deleted....

I'm just getting this back at the top. Could somebody tell me if there is an easier way?

Do you mean CString::ReleaseBuffer()? I don't see a CString::FreeBuffer(). So, I would have to loop through the array, set each string to "", and call ReleaseBuffer() on each? If I understand it all...

I am using a CStringArray in my program. I wish to not only free the memory associated with the pointers to the strings in the array (as is done with RemoveAt() and RemoveAll()), but I also wish to...
