    Mutual Inclusion

    I realise this seems a stupid question but I have googled this to death with no results so here goes: I have two files, game.h and player.h. Each contains a reference to the other. I started by simply putting an include to the other each file. This resulted in an infinite loop when I compiled...

    Creating a constructor with a string parameter

    I am new to C++ and I think I may have thrown myself in a bit too deep!! I have programmed before in Delphi and Java so I think this may be more of a syntaxical problem. I am trying to create a class and, on calling the constructor, pass a filename to the constructor. As it stands I'm trying to...

    Delphi 2007 keeps setting my files to 'read only'

    While I am typing, and usually after the prompt box has popped up, Delphi sets the file I am editing to read only!! It's only recently started happening and only seems to happen when the prompt box is displaying parts of an object I have created. Sometimes I can set it back to edit and carry...

    E2018 Record, object or class type required

    Ok, so it's just me being stupid!! I declared UFID as an array and forgot to specify the array element!! If anyone else has a similar problem, the correct code should be: info.UFID[i].owner := LeftStr(strreadin, compos - 1); info.UFID[i].identifier := RightStr(strreadin...

    Adding your program to open specific .ext

    I don't know if its just how you typed it or whether it's meant to be like that, but you have no colon after D!!!! Is it meant to read D:\Programs?? Just a passing thought Hope it helps

    IE shortcuts quit working

    Sound to me that its a problem with something you have done to all the affected computers. It isn't really something that coincidentally happens to 5 computers at once!!! Also check for viruses. If you find a virus, take the affected computers straight off the network as this will be how it...

    Pause problem with TMediaPlayer

    I am using a media player object and I'm having trouble getting it to pause and resume. Whenever I pause it, it seems to stop instead. The Mode property is mpStopped and even if I use Resume it still plays from the beginning. Anyone got any ideas? Gary

    Change Windows background picture according to user rights

    I had a quick google on the subject of scripts to get user rights but with no success. I did however have a mini-brainwave!! It is possible through VB, and therefore it might be possible through VBScript, to get the username of the current user logged on. If you used this in conjunction with a...

    Change Windows background picture according to user rights

    Depending how many users you have, you could always set a background for each user? I would assume that only a few people can change user rights, so just get them to change the image with the rights!! I will look into other ways for you Hope it helps Gary

    XP Boot problem, how do I identify the problem driver?

    I had this problem when I installed Vista on my laptop. It turned out to be a dodgy driver for my Nvidia Go 7400 graphics card. If you have installed any new hardware lately or you're using a driver designed for an older version of windows, boot into safe mode and uninstall the device from...
