Ok. What would I look for in the debugger?
I can't debug the release version because it doesn't contain any debugging information.
And since the debug version works, I wouldn't see anything...
Not exactly.
What I'm looking for is a statement that allows the user to do stuff while the loop is running...
The steps would look like this:
1. Start the loop
2. Loop counts....
3. User...
In VB, it helped to put the word DoEvents somewhere in the body of a loop so the program would respond to a user while the loop was running...
For instance (VB Code samples):
The first loop...
Yep, that was exactly it... I kept hitting the "Step Into" button.
When I step through my code, as soon as I get to the strcat function, a box pops up and asks me for the location of STRCAT.ASM
I tried to change the folder to the Intel folder (in my C++ path) but...
I put a copy of the config file in both folders. But the only executable that works is the one in the debug folder.
The wierdest part is as I mentioned, there is absolutely nothing different...
Davros: Thanks for the explanation. I haven't had much exposure to pointers yet so I make mistakes like that often.
Guess I know what I'll be reading tonight...
Monster: Thanks for the...
The following code does not work... could someone explain?
char StringFromFile[10];
char ConstantString[10] = "RootFolder";
//This is a Win32 Application. I can't remember the parameters...
Could someone give me a few suggestions here:
I am using Visual C++ 6 Enterprise. I have written a small program that plays a wave file...
Application Type: Win32 Application (not console)...
I still think C and C++ will be the foundation for most commercial applications.
Since I've been programming in VB for the last 10 years, I decided to expand my horizons into C++ but I don't think...
So, what do you think of this:

To add to Ober561's point:
On the VB Explorer forums, there are about 100,000 members.
I've been programming in VB for about 10 years. Though I like what I've learned so far in C, I find that...
Thanks. I'm going to try it right now...
Unfortunately, my search for RegClean on Microsoft's site came up with this:
"The RegClean utility is no longer supported and has been removed from all Microsoft download sites."
I installed SoftICE on my machine, running Win2k and during the installation it said something to the effect of:
"In order to use SoftICE with Windows NT, you must disable the protected memory...
I didn't even know there was a FAQ board. I bookmarked right to the C++ board.
Sorry.
Ah, thanks. I forgot about the newline characters.
Ok, I screwed up... but I can't edit because I accidentally posted anonymously...
but where I said you'd get a message box with an exclamation point icon...
I really meant a question mark...

Thank you both.
I guess I'm a little impatient. I've been programming in Visual Basic for a few years that most of it comes second nature (I know, I know... some C programmers don't recognize it...
Yes, thank you. That gave me more insight than I had.
I've been programming in Visual Basic for a few years and I never knew just how much I took it for granted. Something as simple as opening a...

I've been reading a lot of the tutorials/comments from this site. How does one know which include file to use?
For instance, I've been particularly interested in...
What is the difference between C and C++?
I started taking a class in C, and am also learning C++ on my own...
Am I wasting my time? Are there significant differences between the two? I have...
quzah is correct. The common form of copy protection is to write data to a section of the disk "incorrectly". However, if your burning software will allow you to not correct errors, you stand a...
Thanks, I was reading about FreeConsole() on msdn.microsoft.com but wasn't sure how to implement it.
I originally tried to make a Win32 app but kept getting all sorts of compile errors about...
