Ahh found out on "Experts Exchange" (this->*f)(nSomeInt, &vpSomePointer)... you were close though chipper

I'm trying to call a pointer to a class method with the compiler spitting out: "term does not evaluate to a function" This is basically what I'm trying to implement: class Thing; typedef long(Thing::*FUNC)(int, void**); class Thing { Thing() { /*code & other junk */ } long...

dammit, you're right.. i just didn't try to implememt it it any other way by doing: while(1) { sleep(1); if( *((char*)KEY_ADDRESS) & KEY_ALT ) { //bla } } it clearly does work, thanks alot ;-)

thanks anyway but that's no good, i want to capture the ALT without having to press another key.. eg: press ALT and a pop-up menu opens

How do you detect keystrokes from a keyboard in DOS -WITHOUT- using getch(). I am specifically trying to detect when the ALT Key is depressed, NOT an ALT+* event.

well you should be able to just use this to chop the .mp3 off: *strstr(string, ".mp3") = '\0';

put this in the form's class public: BEGIN_MESSAGE_MAP MESSAGE_HANDLER(WM_DROPFILES, TMessage, DropFile); END_MESSAGE_MAP(TForm); this in the form's constructor: DragAcceptFiles(Handle, True); replace Handle with that of a control if you like and a function similar to this...

you have to do this i believe: ltime = time(NULL); befor useing localtime()

If you're talking about draging & dropping FILES into the application there is a sample program on Borland's site on the CodeCentral page that works: http://codecentral.borland.com/codecentral/ccweb.exe/prodcat?prodid=2&catid=4 unfortunately you havet os 'sign up' to download it, but at least...

Is there a way for a program to determine if the NT/2000 workstation it is running on is locked or not? (i don't mean frozen, i mean the ctrl-alt-del then enter on "Lock Computer" method)

Ahh.. so you already said that you did... :) what is the error message that you're getting?

did you remember to put #include "Unit2.h" at the top of the calling form? Unit2 of course being replaced by the form's header file name.

Has anyone figured out how to change the colour of an individual TListItem's font?

Form2->SomeComponent->ThingToDo();

Well, if you can read C++, there are examples of how to do it here: http://community.borland.com/article/0,1410,26040,00.html I'm sure the equivalent VB code can be written, or it can be put into a C++ DLL which your VB app can call.

well if you're using a the AnsiiString type you'll need to do this: char *tmp = SomeString.c_str(); then tmp[someindex] to access each letter

no prob ;-)

The 0 left, 1 right method (Zyrenthian) is how Huffman compression works as well, killing two birds with one stone there i guess

you could use the simplest & cheapest method of doing it by using an XOR pattern #define _PATTERN 0xE7 for(i = 0; i < strlen(szCharString); i++) szCharString[i] ^= _PATTERN; this is a VERY simple example, but it works, and you just need to use the same for loop to decrypt it later

i agree with rbobbit, sprintf is the best way to go. it's very simple and only one line of code
