You are correct, I looked at the MSDN documentation and it showed me the 'generic' version. The version you have is fine and should return you exe path names in ASCII.

You already had a good reply 4 1/2 hours ago to your question. If you read the article pointed to, it has a button, with a big "balloon", with links in it.

Have a fun evening reading,

i tried a lot to pass array to excel sheet using xloper structure hear is sample function i wrote to pass array using xloper

<code>__declspec(dllexport) LPXLOPER xarr ()
{

static XLOPER xlArray;
XLOPER xlValues[4];
int i;
for (i = 0; i < 4; ++i)
{
carr[i]=i*2;
xlValues[i].val.num = i+10;
xlValues[i].xltype = xltypeNum;
}
//this will generate array with 4 element 10,11,12,13

xlArray.xltype = xltypeMulti;
xlArray.val.array.lparray = &xlValues;
xlArray.val.array.rows = 1;
xlArray.val.array.columns = 4;
return (LPXLOPER) &xlArray;
}</code>

above function gives only first value of array i.e.10 in the cell from which function call is made
is there is any way to fill the other cell? as i am giving no of row and column in xloper it should fill 3 cell also but that is not happening Cry | :((

Re: how to set position of media player on anywhere on dialog box

Since MCIWndCreate() returns a HWND, you can use any of the Win32 functions such as MoveWindow() or SetWindowPos() to operate on the window.

Hi,

Check out Toby Opferman's Driver Development Part 6: Introduction to Display Drivers[^]. There is also a complete sample mirror driver in the Windows Driver Kit[^] located at:

\7600.16385.0\src\video\displays\mirror

I checked some previous DDK versions and the mirror driver is also there.

create tentative of connection

Hi,
I use connection to sql server:
Internal::_ConnectionPtr m_pConnection;
m_pConnection.CreateInstance( __uuidof( Internal::Connection ) );

when I am currently testing my application in remote (server sqlserver in another machine) everything works as it should.
But when I simulate a network outage (disconnect and reconnect the cable network) and I run a query to read attributes (for example) I noticed that my application does not know the basis which has been connected even though the tests on the connection it gives me yet opened(pConnection->GetState() = adStateOpen)!

So I wonder how to know if there is a network outage or how to create a connection attempt and also the best test on the connection that it is still connected to my database.

Thank you

Can VC60 printf () format numbers with comma thouasand seperators, eg 23,123

With MS VC6.0 :

Can printf() and the other derivatives such as CString::Format() be made to produce comma thousand seperated formated numbers ?

I tried the following code but it does not seem to be supported:

long n = 4523123 ;<br />
printf("%'ld", n) ;

Expected Result : 4,523,123

Hi Neil,

I would suggest using the GetNumberFormat Function[^] with the locale id of English_USA.1252.

TCHAR szFormatted[MAX_PATH] = {0};
LCID lc = MAKELCID(MAKELANGID(LANG_ENGLISH,SUBLANG_ENGLISH_US),SORT_DEFAULT);
GetNumberFormat(lc,0,_T("4523123"),NULL,szFormatted,ARRAYSIZE(szFormatted));

Tak a look at the "N" type on the MSDN Format specifiers[^] page.

[edit]Sorry my mistake this does not (as David points out below) apply to printf(). I was on the .NET MSDN page and did not look at the header closely enough. Mad | :mad:

Is this implemented in VC6.0 ? MSDN suggests it is VS2003 onwards only.

What are you trying to do ? The 3rd parameter of SendMessage is a WPARAM which depends on the type of message you are sending, it doesn't return something to you...

You appear to have asked this same question previously although in different ways, and yet nowhere have you clearly explained what you are trying to do. All I can determine is

you are using a dialog, for some unknown purpose
you need to do something with a view somewhere
you have some reason to use an OPENFILENAME structure in or from the dialog
you think lpfnHook is an answer to something
you do not understand the SendMessage() call

Can you please try reposting the question with a clear definition of what your program is trying to do and what bits are not working. Place any code you post between <pre></pre> tags, and try spelling words in full rather than using 'txtspk', so that we can understand the problem and work to a resolution for you.
