    How to "preview" a txt or html from Visual C++?

    I'm not 100% sure I understand the question, but... if you just want to launch a file as if it were double clicked in Windows Explorer, one easy way to do this is to use ShellExecute: ShellExecute( NULL, "open", "c:\\myfile.txt", NULL, "c:\\myfile.txt&quot...

    How to connect Access 2000 with CDAOdatabase

    Microsoft's advice is basically the same as Matt's. However, they also link you to some pages that show you how to use DAO 3.6 to connect to Access 2000 and, I think, 2002 databases: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=KB;EN-US;Q232337

    Save box as in notepad

    Is your application an MFC app? If so then you probably want to use Microsoft's CFileDialog class. http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/vclib/html/_mfc_cfiledialog.asp

    Array of float

    I'm guessing that you mean that it doesn't show up in the IntelliSense list of available functions. I don't know why this is. But the function works fine. Just type it in. aStat0.SetSize( 40 );

    Array of float

    You may wish to try using Microsoft's CArray template: CArray < float, float > my_Array; For more info, see http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/vcmfc98/html/_mfc_carray.asp

    Can't find dll entry point

    Once again I am guessing, but I think that if you don't specify a calling convention, cdecl will be used by default. That appears to be bad news for VB; please see the following Microsoft article: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;q153586 So you might need to put...

    Can't find dll entry point

    One starting point might be to use Dependency Walker (Start-Programs-Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0-Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0 Tools-Depends). It will let you know (in the middle pane on the right hand side) what functions have been exported from your DLL. It could be that your &quot;Init&quot...

    Is it possible to open an Access report using MFC?

    Yes, it is definitely possible. There are several ways to do it. Here's a quick overview of what will probably be the easiest way: 1. First search for &quot;*.olb&quot; files on your system. On my PC, which has Access 97, the appropriate file is c:\msoffice\office\msacc8.olb. The file name...

    Disable Menu?

    In your message map, add an ON_UPDATE_COMMAND_UI macro such as the following: ON_UPDATE_COMMAND_UI(ID_FILE_OPEN, OnUpdateFileOpen) In your header file, declare the function like: afx_msg void OnUpdateFileOpen(CCmdUI* pCmdUI); Then in the actual function body, all you really need to do is to...

    How can I display a JPG or GIF in my MFC app?

    Paul DiLascia answered this question very nicely in his C++ Q&A column in the October 2001 issue of MSDN Magazine. You may find his article at http://msdn.microsoft.com/msdnmag/issues/01/10/c/c0110.asp Also, MFC 7.0 (in Visual C++ .NET) will include a CImage class that will let you do...

    float numbers

    A good place to start reading about floating point formats is http://developer.intel.com/design/pentium/manuals/ From this page, the link you want is to the Intel Architecture Software Developer's Manual, Volume 1: Basic Architecture. Then go to chapter 7 of this manual.
