Code:
case IDC_GET:
MYSQL *pConnection;
MYSQL_RES *pResult; //pointer to the result set structure
MYSQL_ROW Row;
pConnection = mysql_init(NULL);
SendDlgItemMessage(hwnd, IDC_SHOWCOUNT, LB_ADDSTRING, 0, (LPARAM)TEXT("Attempting to Connect to Database...."));
//SendDlgItemMessage(hwnd, IDC_LIST, LB_ADDSTRING, 0, (LPARAM)TEXT("Attempting to Connect to"));
//SendDlgItemMessage(hwnd, IDC_LIST, LB_ADDSTRING, 0, (LPARAM)TEXT("Database......."));
mysql_real_connect(pConnection, "localhost", "username","password","database",0,NULL,0);
SetDlgItemText(hwnd, IDC_SHOWCOUNT, "Attempting To Connect To Database....");
mysql_query(pConnection,"SELECT * FROM products order by itemN"); //query the database
pResult = mysql_store_result(pConnection);
TCHAR szBuffer[50];
wsprintf (szBuffer, TEXT ("%d"), mysql_num_rows (pResult));
SetDlgItemText(hwnd, IDC_SHOWCOUNT, "Connected....Please Wait!");
while ((Row = mysql_fetch_row(pResult)))
{
TCHAR szProducts[100];
wsprintf(szProducts, "%s.....%s.....%s.....%s....%s", Row[1], Row[4], Row[5], Row[7], Row[9]);
