• Software Development for Windows Vista How to record from 'Wave' or 'Stereo Mix' in Vista?

  Hi all, I wrote the following question in other forum space but some MSFT guy told me to try this forum for my question. I hope I could get right answer as soon as possible here. On Windows XP or earlier, I could capture the audio stream to the speacker not from the external device (maybe endpoint device in Vista) like the microphone. In other words, D irectSoundCapture was able to capture from the selected recording device/source line in the Windows record control utility or mixerXXX APIs. And if "Wave Out Mix" or "Stereo Mix" or something similar was selected as recording source line, D irectSoundCapture was able to record the audio stream to the speacker. However, I could not find the way to do tha ...Show All

• Visual Basic Problems with binding a combobox

  I got a form where you can enter information in textboxes and i got comboboxes where i want to choose some predefined options. I binded the textboxes with the information in the database, and i am trying to bind the combobox with the database. the problem is the combobox is showing information, but not all the options that it should be. It only shows the options that have been used in the call table. Also if you change the combobox to a value that is used in the second row of the table "calls", all the comboboxes changes to a value that is used in the second row, the same happens if you change 1 combobox back.

• Visual C++ Decorations on C++ DLL function declarations really needed?

  I used the _stdcall decorators on the Visual C++ function definitions and declarations, but I couldn't get communication between the DLL and the Visual Basic application that was trying to call the functions of the DLL.. When I removed the declarations from the VC code almost completely (all but for the DLL_Main function definition), it worked fine.  Is there any disadvantage to using this approach   Everyone I communicated with about it , including my boss and people that answered the MIcrosoft help posting that I put up, stated that you have to use those decorations.  Why is that   It works fine without it so far.  My boss will be back from travel tommorrow.  I was hoping to find out today so I can make ...Show All
