Thread: VC++ problems, please help

can anyone please help me to check the below codings see got any error,why i can not show the red color if i change the name? the purpose of the below coding is to check if got any changes must be reflected in red, otherwise is black

Code:

buf=GetJobItem(tmpJobNew,1);
		buf.TrimRight();
		if(buf.GetLength()>0)
		{
			if((tmpJobNew.wOfferMask & 0x4000) != 0)
			{
	
			dc.SetTextColor(RED);
			}
			else
			{
			dc.SetTextColor(BLACK);
		
			}
			
		dc.ExtTextOut(leftStart,topStart,ETO_OPAQUE,NULL, _T("Name:"), NULL);
			
			tmp=GetJobItem(tmpJobNew, 2);
			//tmp.TrimRight();
				if (tmp.GetLength()>0)
				{
				tmp.Format(_T(" (%s)"),tmpJobNew);
				//buf+=_T(", ");
				buf=buf+tmp;
				}
		
#if defined(IVD_1)
		dc.ExtTextOut(50+leftStart,topStart,ETO_OPAQUE,NULL,buf, NULL);
#else
		dc.ExtTextOut(100+leftStart,topStart,ETO_OPAQUE,NULL,buf, NULL);
#endif
		topStart=topStart+nHeight;

If you change that if (the one with the & 0x4000) to something that is always true, do you get red text? If yes, then look at that condition again. If not, then I guess you should look at your ExtTextOut settings (which I'm not familiar with so I don't know what they should be).
