MFC is failing to launch my dialog boxes, it seems, because it can't find the resource identifiers. The dialog boxes are in a separate .lib file (so it has a separate .rc file, which, I'm assuming, somehow conflicts with the one in my .exe file). How should I be handling this situation? ...

My team has spent a long time developing a nice UI using the ribbon included in the VS2008 MFC Feature Pack. Now that Windows 7 is out and the look and feel of the ribbon has changed, my application looks out of date already, and it hasn't even been released yet :/ I want the look and feel of the Windows 7 ribbon ("scenic ribbon") idea...
I have a CListBox with custom drawing being used, and need to detect mouse-clicks within each item to perform actions. I can listen for mouse-clicks on the main control and mess about translating coords into the local space of the RECT for the item under the mouse. But is it possible to register message handlers for clicks on individual...
Strangely I had this working before but I reinstalled my system, upgraded to w7 and now I can't seem to get this code to compile. The problem is that I'm using winhttp.h in most of my application, but I have a simple FTP client object that I wrote using wininet.h functionality. I can't seem to get the application to compile now, no matt...
I'm developing an interactive MFC application which displays a 3D object using my own algorithm, essentially using MFC as a framework, but using lots of pDC->Polygon(), pDC->Rectangle(), pDC->DrawText(), etc. calls. The UI has numerous clickable areas which all work well. However, the onscreen controls for rotating, spinning, etc. the ...
I am merging many rtf files into a single file for printing. In order to save paper, I would like to have the printout of the merged rtf document in two columns per page. What is the best way to do this? ...

I loaded a rtf document into CRichEditView. The document contains page break defined by "\page". However, when I print the rtf document through the CRichEditView, the page break doesn't work. It looks like CRichEditView just ignore the "\page". I open the same rtf document in MS Word and found out that "\page" works. How can I make th...

I would like to be able to call one of the JS functions from my program with a simple data type passed with it. e.g. MyFunc(int). Nothing needs to be returned.

A dialog I'm working on isn't displaying, using: CWnd::CreateDlgIndirect(LPCDLGTEMPLATE lpDialogTemplate,CWnd* pParentWnd, HINSTANCE hInst) The call to CreateDlgIndirect is in a lon-used base-class, which effectively takes the IDD of the dialog template in the resource file - it works fine for many other dialogs but I can't see what's...
I have a custom MFC control, subclassing CWnd. Other than providing OnPaint and PreSubclassWindow implementations, it overrides no default functionality and does nothing weird in construction except registering a window class in the constructor. The control is added to the dialog using the dialog editor to add a custom control. The dia...

The control is receiving paint messages, and has a custom on-paint handler. But I want to have the equivalent of OnInitDialog in the control, so it can sa...
My application may take a while to connect to a database. This connection is made with a single library function call, i.e. I cannot put progress updates in there and make callbacks or something similar. My idea was to create a dialog with a progress bar in a separate thread before connecting to the DB. This dialog will continually ch...

We narrow down the choices to three: WinForms MFC QT4 We looked at some big WinForms applications, such as Paint.Net, and feel that it still lacks power of pe...
I'd like some help on using MFC without the document/view architecture. I created a project without doc/view support, Visual C++ created a CFrameWnd and a view that inherits from CWnd. I replaced the view inheriting from CWnd with a new view that inherits from CFormView. However, when I run my program, after I close the window I get a ...
