Hello napkin
Can you post your source codes? I'm into Windows GUI programming and I'm hoping to learn a lot more from studying other's programs.

LoL nice program, i had ME before, very unstable, but could i ask you one question?
How did you get the console window to stay behind the program? This could be very useful in debuging stuff.
"There are three kinds of people in the world...
Those that can count and those that can't."
question:
let say i have a Edit Box, a Button and a List Box. i'm going to type a message into the Edit Box and when i hit the Enter(or Return), the message is going to be appeared on the List Box. How can i do that?

Billholm: I'll try to remember to bring in the code and post the code on Monday (I'm at school...)
Okie: The reason the console stays at the back is because I don't know how to make it go away(yet). If you have VC++6 go to File>New...>then under project select 'Console-application.'
Thanatos: Sorry but I'm just starting and can't answer that (yet)
Thanks for the responses!

GetWindowText() and a SendMessage() work well for your listbox dillema...tell ya what, you put it in a nice post of your own and I'll answer it for you completely
Ok napkin. Monday then

Oops!
Sorry about my double post. My browser didn't update and I thought I lost my post.

Ha, I thought yesterday was Friday! Wishful thinking I guess....Anyways, here's all the stuff minus the debug directory. The .rc (resource script) and resource.h files are required to compile.

thanatos, you can try this:
I can't remember exactly how, but you can do this. Give the edit box its own WndProc, and catch the WM_KEYDOWN message. Something like:
case WM_KEYDOWN:
switch(LOWORD(wParam))
{
case VK_RETURN:
GetWindowText(hwnd, buffer, 100);
SendMessage(hListBox, LB_ADDSTRING, (LPARAM) 100, (WPARAM) buffer);
break;
}
break;

To get rid of the console window, instead of going to Win32 Console Application, goto Win32 Application.
To make the text go in when enter is pressed, you can just make a default button and then the default button will respond to the return.
Ok napkin!
I already downloaded your code. I'm gonna try it at home

SyntaxBubble:
i did what you suggested but still not ok.
part of the codes:
<code>
case WM_KEYDOWN:
switch(LOWORD(wParam))
{
case VK_RETURN:
int len=0;
char *textbuff;
len = GetWindowTextLength(GetDlgItem(hwnd,IDC_EDIT1));
textbuff=(char*)GlobalAlloc(GPTR,len+1);
GetDlgItemText(hwnd,IDC_EDIT1,textbuff,len+1);
SendDlgItemMessage(hwnd,IDC_LIST1,LB_ADDSTRING,0, (LPARAM)textbuff);
GlobalFree((HANDLE)textbuff);
break;
}
break;
<\code>
please advice.

Thonatos, HTML is off and UBB is on.
Use UBB instead of HTML code, Thonatos.
