As documented: "If not all tabs can be shown at once, the tab control displays an up-down control so that the user can scroll additional tabs into view." http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb760550%28VS.85%29.aspx I don't want this. I don't want an up down control to show if I have too many and I don't want multiline tabs. I...
A very simple test case: procedure TForm3.btnCopyClick(Sender: TObject); begin HotKey2.HotKey := HotKey1.HotKey; end; Press "PgDn" key in the first THotKey and "Page Down" is displayed. Click the ==> button and the second THotKey will display "Num 3". Similar things happen if modifiers (Shift etc) are pressed. The behaviour also...

Hello, so i read a tutorial saying it is not worth it to memorize the windows API template. Do you as programmers memorize the template or just create one from the wizard? also does anyone know a good web source to learn windows programming better? theForger's is okay but more of a reference guide than a learning source ...
I have a binary application on windows (train timetable software) which contains a lot of interresting data which I need for my project (nothing illegal, just some weird optimization algorithm). But the application has no api and the data files have undocumented binary form. So my idea is to control the application from my own code. I w...
My question is related to "Turn off buffering in pipe" albeit concerning Windows rather than Unix. I'm writing a Make clone and to stop parallel processes from thrashing each others' console output I've redirected the output to pipes (as described in here) on which I can do any filtering I want. Unfortunately long-running processes now ...
I have a window that's a CHILD window of another window. For reasons beyond me, NC_HITTEST never gets called on it, no mouse events are called for it (but rather reach its parent window). Why is that? I want that child window to process his own mouse clicks. ...

I looked at some other questions on SO and its not clear if c is built on top of, under, or alongside the WINAPI. Like for example could someone write something in pure c that was able to open a window, or would they need to use the windows api? I noticed similarities between the c (library?) version of opening a file (fopen) vs the w...

Here is what I'm doing. I'v created a combobox but I'm not using it for that. When I click it, it calls trackpopup and brings up a context menu. However after I'v clicked the context menu, I'd like it to close the combobox in the same way it would if you clicked anywhere (killing the focus) or selected an item from the combobox. Here's ...
