<0> i upgraded to 2007 because we need to use some of its features
<0> plus its the only one supported on vista (ironic)
<1> :(
<1> disabling UAC was th efirst thing I did :)
<0> this is after i had to do a full, clean install of vista just to get quickbooks running (frequent uninstall/reinstall/upgrade broke it i guess)
<2> how do i send a EN_CHANGE to a known handle ?
<0> but i've gotten to where i can get the entire pc up and going in no time on a clean install
<2> SendMessage(handle6, EN_CHANGE, 0, 0); << ?
<0> what's really funny (broken) in vista is that, with UAC disabled, running an app "as admin" from a standard user doesn't work
<0> "run as admin" is entirely dependant on uac being enabled
<0> which is lame
<3> I should get do the MS Empower program... Would be cheaper than buying Vista and Office 2007.
<0> msdn?
<0> bout 2k for a 2 year subscription
<0> maybe 1700
<0> visual studio, os's, mssql, office, etc



<3> Empower is $375/yr, only available to new partners, and only renewable once, so a maximum of 2 yrs.
<3> But it includes an MSDN Universal susbscription w/ 5 licenses.
<3> Oooh, and it looks like my dedicated server is up for renewal next week... Gotta make sure there's money in that account.
<1> reminds me that well really need a new dedicated server of our own
<1> oke so who told Lommez I worked for remobjects?
<3> Heh.
<1> someone did, else he wouldn't have found out
<3> In the channel, nobody.
<3> So it must have been private.
<1> looks like it
<1> I was just looking at the logs
<1> he thinks 24 hours for a reply is slow
<3> Heh.
<1> hey blade. where have you been hiding?
<1> damn
<1> too early :)
<3> My dedicated contract actually is up on Feb 6. Wonder why I haven't gotten a renewal invoice yet
<1> he usually joins just after he shows on msn
<1> Vibes: hrmm
<1> thats bad
<1> :)
<3> Logged into the control panel, I show a $0 balance.
<3> I wonder if I can get them to bill me monthly rather than yearly.
<3> Probably not.
<1> yearly ****s
<1> for both of you
<3> Ah, I see. I remember this now.
<3> They will do monthly, but it costs more.
<1> ah well
<3> It saves a couple hundred bucks a year to pay for a year at a time.
<1> I'm going to see if there something to do on the other side of conciousness
<1> laters.
<3> Seeya
<4> aloha
<4> specifically in the area of enumerating window stations & desktops
<4> there is no escape Code_MWrk :)
<4> man google needs a button right next to every link which can be used to just report it as spam directly
<5> hi guys.
<5> protektor: I'm no expert... but I've used it a bunch.
<4> hiya dayna
<5> oops. not that specific api
<4> damn
<4> desktop enumeration is like some kind of ****ing black art
<5> hmmm.
<4> I've got the process worked out in my head, now I just need to find out whetether
<5> don't suppose you've ever used SoundPlay to play a resource file...
<4> heh no sorry
<4> 'enumerates only those window stations for which the calling process has the WINSTA_ENUMERATE access rights'
<4> question is, does the administrator have those rights? how can I even find out - it's not mentioned anwhere!
<6> Mom! Dad! I'm Home!
<4> horray!
<5> protektor: on remote machines or local machine?
<6> who? me?
<5> protektor: on the local machine... the administrator can get that access right... unless forbidden by domain policies.
<4> RadSurfer: and no dinner till you solve my problem ;)
<4> dayna: local machine
<6> Evening beautiful Dayna.



<4> I know. I'm just being annoying.
<5> protektor: its like shutting down the puter... or rebooting. you can get the rights from the system... unless forbidden by local/domain policies.
<4> dayna: what do you mean by GET that access right? is it a privledge that needs to be enabled (like SE_DEBUG_PRIVLEDGE) or are we talking about messing with DACL's on things?
<4> please not the latter.. please not the latter..
<5> you have seen the code for rebooting the system?
<5> one of the steps involves GetSystemPrivellege or some such.
<4> hmm ok. might need to investigate
<4> if I could just find a program that actually DOES it then I could compare my results to it
<4> seems none of the sysinternals tools offer it
<5> http://www.delphitricks.com/source-code/windows/shutdown__reboot__logoff_windows_9xntme2000xp.html
<5> is not GetSystem... its adjustTokenPriv...
<4> ah yeah, that's the one
<4> I've used that to get SE_TCB before
<7> anyone seen the delphi wikia site
<5> a few months ago
<4> aha! http://ikriv.com:8765/en/prog/tools/EnumWinstaGui/index.html
<4> and, btw, I make ****ing good coffee
<5> k.
<5> RadSurfer: don't suppose you've used PlaySound to play a snd_resource file?
<4> I'd share but well, I finished it already ;)
<6> Can't say that I have, sorry.
<5> I don't even like the smell of coffee
<4> omg
<4> you are so not a real programmer!
<5> turns my stomach the same way beer does.
<4> liiiiiiiiiiiiies
<5> programmers are babes in the woods. I'm a software engineer. </snob mode>
<4> heh
<6> D/G, you're in your 30's?
<5> RadSurfer: if you say so.
<6> 20's?
<6> seriously.... I'm 40+ LOL (but very young at heart as we all know)
<5> k.
<5> I was born before hippies
<5> before vietnam
<8> before the wheel
<8> oops
<5> back when dirt was experimental
<8> :}
<9> http://www.damninteresting.com/?p=797
<5> I read that in a story the other day... I've been itching to fit it into conversations.
<5> I've heard of it before.
<5> only it was florida not the amazon.
<9> It apparently exists in Florida and Africa as well.
<5> never actually heard of anyone falling victim to it....
<9> The article said it was rare.
<8> i saw it on discovery a coupla years back where they tested its jump into a pee stream ... it does jump suprisingly well
<4> stupid windows
<4> letting me change my ip while online
<5> Mjolnir: you ever use playsound to play a resource wav?
<3> OK, I have a control that's a child of another control. (All VCL controls). The child control is animated and moves around. Can I make the parent control NOT repaint every time the child moves?
<10> Vibes, try handle the WM_ERASEBKGND of the parent
<9> DaynaGirl No, but the docs make it look simple enough.... What have you tried?
<3> TAtari: What if I don't have source to the parent. Is there anything I can do with just the child?
<3> (I could do some windows subcl***ing to make WM_ERASEBKGND work, but I'd rather not)
<10> you could handle that by WMProc or what ever its called and intercept it
<10> in your main cl*** as long as you know the hwnd
<2> iam trying to handle a HBitmap..
<2> using this code:
<2> bmp := LoadBitmap(HInstance, MAKEINTRESOURCE('IDB_CLOSE'));
<5> I have tried everything I can think of.
<2> but its complaining about tagBitmap and HBitmap
<5> I used a resource editor to confirm the resource is in there
<2> bmp << is HBitmap
<5> HBitmap = mybmp.handle
<2> oh ;x
<2> changed to TBitmap
<2> but.. it would't allow me to load
<5> then I called PlaySound( 'alarm', hInstance, SND_RESOURCE or SND_ASYNCH );
<9> Hrm. Is alarm in the main resource file or in something you created?
<5> something I created
