How to route a message from MainFrame to Doc and View?
Hello everyone, I am working on an SDI application called Test. In the CTestApp::InitInstance() I create a worker thread to which I pass the HWND of the application (*m_pMainWnd) and the message ID. In the worker thread, when I post a message using PostMessage() to the main window, I can only catch it in the MainFrame. I tryied to catch it in the TestDoc or in the TestView without succeeding. From my understanding, whenever the MainFrame receives a message it routes it to the documents and views, if it didn't handle it! 1. How could I route the received message in the MainFrame to the TestDoc or the TestView? 2. Is it a bad practice to make the MainFrame know the TestDoc or the TestView by calling GetActiveDocument() and GetActiveView()? Thank you, Geo

Dave, lParam is an argument that I should pass to a function. Could you please tell me which function should I call to be able to communicate with the Doc or the View.

Use WM_NOTIFY. I'm not sure, though, if it gets routed to the document. But it gets routed to the active view.

alegrIn your worker thread you only have m_pMainWnd pointer, you post or send the message to your mainframe is reasonable. You certainly get reroute this message to Doc and then propogate it to view, even to other objects they managed. It is perfect working.

>lParam is an argument that I should pass to a function. Could you please >tell me which function should I call to be able to communicate with the Doc >or the View. I think you've got the wrong end of the stick from my original reply - read about using WM_COMMAND messages in the article I mentioned, WM_COMMAND messages should get routed automatically. If you don't want to do that, you have to write your own code to send the message where you want it. Dave
You communicate with the view by simply doing a SendMessage to the current view. But there is no way to send a message to a document. One way to avoid this is to create an invisible top-level window which is the message sink for such messages, then have it call methods of the document. You might check out my article on adding a timer to a CDocument class (yes, it made sense!) to see how to do this trick. Not pretty, but it works well. Generally, if you are in SDI, it makes no sense to have the thread communicate with the mainframe when the purpose is to communicate to the view; pass in the CView* pointer to the thread. joe On Wed, 17 Nov 2004 10:41:02 -0800, Geo <Geo@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote: >Thank you Dave, > >But then how would I communicate the message content to the Doc or View? > >Thanks > >"David Lowndes" wrote: > >> >I am working on an SDI application called Test.

newcomerAnd, for that matter, there is no reason to pass a message to the main window if it is destined for the view. Pass it directly to the view. Let the view act as proxy for the document. joe On Wed, 17 Nov 2004 18:38:33 -0500, "Scott McPhillips [MVP]" <org-dot-mvps-at-scottmcp> wrote: >Geo wrote: >> Hello everyone, >> >> I am working on an SDI application called Test.

'Signature for new messages' which won't work
Hi, I have Outlook 2003 and if I go to Tools>Options>Mail Format I see I can choose a signature for new messages. I have 3 e-mail accounts set up, and have set a new message signature for each one, e.g.: 1) Home > Sig 1 (default) 2) Work > Sig 2 3) Play > Sig 3 However when I try to create a new e-mail message, it seems impossible to automatically start a new e-mail using my Work or Play accounts, and therefore have the signature automatically entered. So what is the point of this feature if there is no way to use it? I'm sure I'm missing so...

Hi, I have a MS CRM 3.0 VPC running. I have allocated 1GB memory as recommended. However, whenever I try opening Activities(any entity for that matter), it is throwing an error dialog "An error has occured. For more information, contact you system administrator."

Can't view OWA internally
I am unable to view the OWA internally unless I VPN to someone then I can view it. Externally I can view it just fine. Any ideas would be appreciated. How are you attempting to access OWA internally? Are you typing http://servername/exchange, or are you typing a name that has been registered in external DNS? What do you mean when you say you VPN to someone and then view it? You shouldn't need to VPN to anything if you are attached to the same physical network that your Exchange server is on. -- Ben Winzenz Exchange MVP MessageOne "Kyle S" <KyleS@discussions.micr...
How do you edit HTML source in a new outlook email message?
Trying to create a new email message by inserting HTML. I don't see a place to edit source for a new message. This is probably a really easy thing to do, I just can't find out where the "edit source" option is, and the help files don't seem to be any help.

Viewing multiple excell spreadsheets on the task bar
Why is it that when I have 3 or more excell spreadsheets open they are not all listed on my task bar the only way I can get to them is by going to the window button and selecting the one I want to see, I want to be able to ALT TAB between them and they are not listing them for me in the task bar only the current one I have open? Are you using XP? Sounds like that feature of XP which groups several windows of one application into one spot on the task bar. There may be a way to shut this off in taskbar properties.

New Exchange Routing Group in child domain / site
I have just finished installing a child domain (leaf node) and installing a exchange server for that new domain. First problem I had was that when my email was coming in via the main domain it was sending some of the public folder emails over to the sub domain (witch I had not configured for public folders) So I placed each domain in its own routing group, created a routing connect (both ways) pointing at each other as well as SMTP Connectors with * and cost of 1 (all default settings in each location / routing group. These server will be split via a T1 and both will receive email (ma...
OE Can Compact Messages!
Hi, I repeatedly get the often complained about message from OE; "To free up disk space Outlook Express can compact messages...........". I've read the answers to other posters re this nuisance and have dealt with all "The Usual Suspects". In fact that has been my practice for a long time without ever encountering this problem. It has surfaced only recently with no changes in the PC of which I'm aware. The crowning insult occurred today immediately after I had just completed a total manual compacting. A solution would be greatly appreciated. T...
