[ragdog]

hi

i have a little problem with my routine

with convert from getdlgitemtext

expl: gettext dll convert to .dll or anything

Code Select Expand


.data?
hExtension db 4 dup (?)
lpszBuffer dd ?

.code
        invoke GetDlgItemText,hWnd,IDC_EXT,addr hExtension,sizeof hExtension
       
       mov eax,offset lpszBuffer
       mov esi,4
       mov byte PTR [eax],"."
       mov DWORD PTR [eax+esi],offset hExtension
       
        invoke MessageBox,hWnd,offset lpszBuffer,0,MB_OK


thanks

Your code assembles without errors, but without the context I can't guess what your problem is...

hi

   
enter into the field 3 signs example dll or txt ...

this routine works not to convert the dll > .dll or txt > .txt

have your an idea

[jj2007]

Which field? Post the complete code if you want help.

Sorry I removed my post because I misread what you are trying to do because a string in a dword will be in reverse order.

Why not using a string buffer...

.data?

lpszBuffer db 8 dup (?)

.code

mov eax, offset lpszBuffer
mov byte ptr [eax], "."
inc eax

invoke GetDlgItemText, hWnd, IDC_EXT, eax, sizeof lpszBuffer

invoke MessageBox, hWnd, addr lpszBuffer, 0, MB_OK

jdoe's solution works probably. Here is another variant.

.data?
hExtension db 5 dup (?)
; lpszBuffer dd ?

.code
       mov eax,offset hExtension+1   ; EDIT
       mov byte PTR [eax-1],"."
       invoke GetDlgItemText,hWnd,IDC_EXT,eax, 3
       invoke MessageBox,hWnd, addr hExtension,0,MB_OK

ragdog,
Sometimes that is just the way it is. You stare and stare at the same piece of code and want to rip your hair out! Don't let it get you down, it happens to all of us at one time or another.
