Hi Everyone, I've been trying to implement the Ole Convert dialog for my extended richtextbox. This dialog allows the user to convert an embedded object or change how it is activated. One of the members of the structure is wFormat which is the data format of the object to be converted or activated. Can someone with more experience in the use of this dialog, please explain what exactly is this format they are talking about. I know that it is used during a search of the registry to find class entries with wFormat in their \Conversion\Readable\Main, \Conversion\ReadWriteable\Main and \DataFormats\DefaultFile entries and that these entries are then listed in the listbox within this dialog. However I don't know exactly how to supply the appropriate format given any arbitary embedded/linked object.
Any help or advice would be appreciated. I was unable to find any code on the internet describing how to display this dialog (which I can do) and what to do after the dialog returns. I have already implemented the Change Icon dialog, so I would only be planning to use this dialog for conversion purposes and not for changing aspects nor icons. Regards and thanks for any help, John Whattam. =================================== This list is hosted by DevelopMentorĀ® http://www.develop.com View archives and manage your subscription(s) at http://discuss.develop.com
