    Using GetDeviceCaps with multiple monitors

    To reply to my own message: On non-NT machines you can use xSize = GetSystemMetrics( SM_CXVIRTUALSCREEN ); ySize = GetSystemMetrics( SM_CYVIRTUALSCREEN ); For full compatibility, use EnumDisplayMonitors

    Using GetDeviceCaps with multiple monitors

    I have a multiple monitor setup and I want to print a bitmap from an area of the screen on the 2nd monitor. However, if I use: xScrn = GetDeviceCaps(hScreenDC, HORZRES); yScrn = GetDeviceCaps(hScreenDC, VERTRES); I get only the size of the primary monitor. This means that with my current...

    Hello, I have a large application that has been developed over many years. There are many MFC windows, but there are also many non-MFC windows. We applied a manifest to the app to get an XP-style. This works fine for all MFC windows. However, for old windows written in C, we have many...

    Detecting whether mouse button is pressed

    Is there a Windows API that will tell me whether the mouse button is in the process of being pressed (i.e. is currently "down")? (In a non-MFC app I want to know this before proceeding with an operation)

    Combining 2 Stored Procedures into 1

    I have inherited 2 stored procedures from an Access database: =====SP1 SELECT [ID] FROM SP2 WHERE (GC=reqGC) And (UC=reqUC); =====SP2 SELECT [ID], Count([GroupID]) AS GC, Count([UserID]) AS UC FROM TABLE1 GROUP BY [ID]; Note that SP1 calls SP2. I am struggling to translate this logic into an...

    Incorrect syntax in stored procedure that calls another?

    Yeah, you're right. What I'd done was almost a blind copy of the Access syntax. Thanks very much.

    Calling SP in DB upsized from MS Access

    Hello, I inherited an Access database with a bunch of stored procedures and some working ADO/C++ code to call them. I upsized the database to an SQL Server database and everything seems to be fine (i.e, all the info has transferred). I now want to use the same code to call the stored...

    Sorting a "locked" column in a CListCtrl

    This solution works fine when the user wants to drag the column separator. However, they can still double click on the column separator to achieve their goal! I haven't yet got a solution for this, although I'm sure its just a case of trapping a different message!

    Sorting a "locked" column in a CListCtrl

    Is it possible to click on a column header AND fix the width of the column at the same time? Basically, in order to fix the size of the column, I have done something like, my_list_control.GetHeaderCtrl()->EnableWindow(FALSE); However, this means that I can no longer click on the column header...
