Hello!

I create an AnsiString and "fill" it with a text.

Code:
    AnsiString book;
    book =3D EditText->Text;

How can I find out the length of the string book?

Hello,

I am a newbie and I ran in to the following problem using dev-c++ while 
trying to create a util for Win32. Amongst other things it should create a 
drive mapping. 

I used the the following code:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <windows.h>
#include <winnetwk.h>

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
  WNetAddConnection("\\\\server\\c$", "", "Q:");
  WNetAddConnection("\\\\server\\d$", "", "R:");
  return 0;
}

But when I try to compile it I get the following linker error:"

e:\src\mappings\main.o(.text+0x6a):main.cpp: undefined reference to 
`WNetAddConnectionA@12'
e:\src\mappings\main.o(.text+0x84):main.cpp: undefined reference to 
`WNetAddConnectionA@12'

I checked for the winnetwk.h file and it is there. But there is no mpr.lib
After that I tried to use the mpr.lib from Microsofts VC and set the 
library location in the compileroptions to it but that did not create a 
different output at all...

I don't know what to do anymore. Can anyone help me?

Ive seen it before... and now I want to know how exactly that works. Some applications draw bitmaps on the screen, with part of it transparent... either completely or not.

These programs can actually draw(paint) a bitmap with a transparency color! All they have to do is replace a specific color into a transparent color and then voom! you can see your wall paper right through the interior of the window. Does anyone know how I can do this?

For example... we take a square, or any shape drawn in a  bitmap file. The square (or any shape) is colored blue and its background red. How will I be able to draw the square (or any shape) on the screen whithout actually drawing the red background of the bitmap?

One way to do this is to use a bit mask- the ascii code for 7 is 011 0111,
while the number 7 in bin is 000 0111.  I am pressed for time, but send me a
message and I will respond in more detail.
