    Actually that sounds great. I hadn't heard of __isascii before and will try it out. Seems like that will require less lines of code than what I was thinking of....thanks for the time./j

    Verification of only valid ASCII Characters in Input Buffer

    Given a null-terminated char array what is the most efficient method to validate that each byte contains a valid ASCII character (i.e. A-Z, 0-9, CR, LF, ..). Curious as to opinions here... thanks,

    What is the best and most straight-forward method of triggering a thread when a new USB 'thumb' drive has been inserted into a computer. We are trying to restrict custom backups to only certain 'blessed' USB drives. Any hints on how to either monitor a device list, etc. would be most helpful...

    My fault...should have said it upfront. Primary application is a non-managed C++ console application (no MFC included). I'd just like to open up a 2nd console for debuging....and route debugging messages to it.... thanks./jbs

    Creating custom .lib

    Thanks for your quick response, however if you (or anyone) has a moment my question is really a two part question. First, how do I create a .lib file with a function in it. A reference (url link) would work fine (i've looked through msdn, etc. but couldn't find a clear example) or an example...

    Finding list of available/active serial ports

    How do you determine which serial ports are installed and activated via the BIOS on a typical computer. For example, a computer could have two serial communication ports and only have one of them enabled via the BIOS setup menu. Another situation might be that a PCI circuit card has been...

    Two quick Unicode related questions: #1) What is the difference, if any, between TEXT("a string") versus _T("a string") #2) VS.NET 2003 VC71 configuration question: What is the difference between the configuration setting "Multi-byte character set" versus the...

    I'd like the child application to create a process that will store it's output in memory so that the main program can use it. The advantage of it going directly into memory of course is high access speed and I can avoid all issues related to create new files in various places....for starters...
