98% of my testing is done at home, using notepad. If it doesn't work in notepad, it sure isn't going to work in the clunky work app. I should mention that I have a running version that I use at work,...

I assumed it was something like that, but I know far too little about the internals of this type of stuff to be able to pinpoint the problem. I'm willing to have the program wait until the paste has...

As I said I'm a novice, I discovered I need to actually paste to the specific control, and managed to google my way into working code:


HWND hwnd = ::GetForegroundWindow();
DWORD...

Well, by your suggestion I tried this:


HWND hwnd = ::GetForegroundWindow();
LRESULT x = ::SendMessage(hwnd, WM_PASTE, 0, 0);


hwnd is correct, x is 0, nothing pasted. At least in...

Thanks for not reading my post, you have been so helpful.

\n puts a return in a string. So "Hello World!\n" or \n\n for two returns.

Ok, I'm a relatively novice programmer, but I designed an app for work that lets you enter data in a much more efficient way, then it needs to paste this data into the very curmudgeonly interface we...

Although my question is relatively database-independent, I'm using PostgreSQL.

I'm new to designing databases, and understanding some of the design concepts while maintaining speed and flexibility...

Cjard: My initial problem was I wasn't sure if using regular expressions would slow down a search. I mentioned in the 4th post that I figured it out. I'm always open to hear other ideas though. What...

The problem stems from the fact that there are many manufacturers, and they all use different part numbering schemes. The user will not necessarily know the correct way to enter the part number...

Postgres allows a query like so: SELECT * FROM xxx WHERE partnum ~ '<regular expression>'
And it works like POSIX regular expressions.

Alsvha, part of my problem was that I want it to be an...

Well to answer my own question (I am new to SQL), it seems that doing a regex search would be really bad. I ran the statements from the commandline, and with regex even on a 3 or 4 line table it took...

An example part number could be "12-45-AL-8206 MPQ LC"
Where "12-45-AL" are prefixes that are all optional, and could be from a range of 50 or so options, "8206" is the base part number, but it is...

I am working on a postgresql database that will basically search for part numbers and put a lot of data together (what else). Most of these part numbers will be pretty standard, and will just be...

What's supposed to happen to the open file then? You're talking about messing with operating system functions. No, you can't.

It's still an MDI application. I have my own "document" architecture. Each childframe could be displaying one of many views, and the dockable windows around the childframe will change based on which...

You need to compare grade, which is a string, to other strings.

while (grade != -1)
That should be

while (grade != "-1")

And so on for the letters.

Also, a more logical keypress for the...

What I'm really looking to do is make the childframe maintain its own dockable windows that can not be moved outside the childframe window. I'm making an MDI Tabbed application with the MFC9/VS2008...

Are there memory leaks with this new stuff?
Running just a basic Visual Studio type new program with no modifications, with all of the extra options (outlook, navigation, etc.) Deleaker detects...

I installed it on XP with VS8 Pro without a problem. Other than the fact that it's a whole slew of new and cool stuff that a novice VC programmer like myself has a hard time grasping. :)

That's the only real part I would take issue with. There should be a settings object or something that stores these variables while the program is running. Are you reading the ini file every time a...

I'm not looking for a long-term decision on my "programming career" so to speak. I am not a professional programmer, nor do I wish to be. Now that isn't to say I'm not a good programmer, it's just...

I'll preface this by saying I'm 25 years old, and I've been programming since I was about 12 in various scripting and programming languages, though primarily in C. Up until recently, this was all...

I'm sure I'm missing something, but I am learning VC++ on my own here. It seems like every time I try something new, I spend 10 hours tracking down something stupid. Basically this is a button that...
