RE: [Dev-C++] Creating controls based on a database

[Ed C. <em...@ed...>]

Well, of course it will be in a loop. I just don't know how to create =
the
checkboxes (and other controls) from within the loop, keeping them =
distinct
(non-static).

Well this could be handled in a loop or something. Call your function =
based
on CreateWindowEx as many times as there are rows or whatever in a =
table.
The function checks if it must create a checkbox or another control. =
Does so
and places it correctly.

Well that is how I would do it.

Yes, but what I'm not sure is how to do an indeterminate number of =
controls,
based on whatever is in the database. Say I pull up 10 rows; it should =
work
the same way if there are 5 or 30.

I'm not 100% sure but I think you should or could use CreateWindowEx =
(win32
API) to dynamically create any kind of window (control). Look it up in =
the
MSDN lib.

I'm using the (Microsoft) Win32 API - sorry about that.

That depends on what API or library you wish to use.
If you had specified that up front, people would be able to provide you =
with
samples.

Hi all -

I have a fairly straightforward requirement: query a database table, =
then
generate checkboxes and labels to correspond to each row, with the
checkboxes remaining non-static. For example, if my data consists of =
names
of people, I want to add controls to my form like:

[] John Doe
[] Suzie Q
[] G. W. Bush
[] Jacque Chirac
...

([] represents a check box)

Assuming I know how to query the database and store the data in an =
array,
how would I use this array to create these controls? Thanks!

-Ed
