Somtimes, I want to sort a block of text. So just select it and let the bubble sort Sub SortSelection () ‘DESCRIPTION: Sorts Selection Dim win set win = ActiveWindow If win.type “Text” Then MsgBox “This macro can only be run when a text editor window is active.” Exit Sub End If StartLine = ActiveDocument.Selection.TopLine […]

This article discusses how to create a graph marker class featuring * Hit-testing. * Shape change (circle, rectangle, triangle, and diamond). * Fill /line option. * Size change. A demo project is provided, in which you can find how to use hit-testing to display tool tip for a marker. In CMarker class, attributes include center […]

Following is a code that gets local machine IP addresses. The advantages over the article by Jeff Lundgren are that my code recognises ALL IP addresses and is ready for IPv6 😉 char szHostName[128]; if( gethostname(szHostName, 128) == 0 ) { // Get host adresses struct hostent * pHost; int i; pHost = gethostbyname(szHostName); for( […]

As many plain Win32-API tasks, the network enumeration can be a difficult one. To keep me from implementing such a task over and over again, I wrote a CNetwork class. The class CNetwork is mainly for enumerating the network and performing different tasks on the resources hit by the enumeration, so the central method of […]

This class introduces minor modifications to a Network enumeration article by Joerg Koenig. Great! However, I wanted to use it locally within a function. The problem is that if you create a CNetSearch object within a function, you don’t have access to it within a callback function called when a network resource is hit (the […]

This article was contributed by Qing Zhang qzhang7@tfn.net. Remote Access Service (RAS), also as “Dial-Up Networking” in Windows 95/98, lets users at remote locations work as if connected directly to a computer network, accessing one or more RAS servers. The Microsoft® Win32® RAS API enables RAS client applications to perform the tasks such as display […]

. This class addresses a common problem: how to ping a computer from a Win95 machine using the MS-TCP stacks. This will also work for NT 3.51 and 4.0. To make the problem more complex, MS did not include a mechanism for doing this in it’s Winsock implementation. The way around the problem is in […]

Normally, when you search for a sub-string in a string, the match should be exact. So if we search for a sub-string “abc” then the string being searched should contain these exact letters in the same sequence for a match to be found. We can extend this kind of search to a case insensitive search […]

This is another regular expression library. Like Zafir’s it is based upon the work of Henry Spencer. I started using this a long time ago and called my class Regexp (rather than CRegExp). Actually I prefer Zafir’s name but I have too much code using the other name to want to change it, so right […]

 Download Source Code Profound programming rule learned the hard way: Never assume anything. So I got pretty tired of always checking a path in a CString to ensure that it terminated in a backslash before adding any additional names. I wrote the CDirectoryString class to handle this for me, and as I was writing an […]

There are innumerable MFC functions that need a CString object as an argument or return a CString object. Often, even if a function needs a char pointer, we still use a CString to hold the string. Although, the CString class has lots of features, it does lack a few very useful string manipulation functions. A […]

The XString-class is a powerfull extension to the standard CString-class. Whereever you use a CString you can now use a XString with much more functionality. The class includes many string-functions I missed in CString, like removing, replacing or inserting strings into another, convertingfunctions to double or int and case-insensitive find, replace and remove. But the […]
