I think that would depend upon what the application was doing...

If you're processing data then you could put in a marker about which record you have reached on a query unload event and then when the program starts back up it looks for that marker, if you're not handling data then im not sure how, i'd need to see what you app is doing to carry on with.

Hello
This is on the type of your app.
There are two solutions
1) As said below use marker
2) Use a configuration file in which after every second or after soome time all of your work or your working state will copied and when the power turns off and on you can load settings from that file it can be a txt file or a database.

Now tell which solution you choose.
I can made an example for you.
GOODLUCK

I m really very sorry because i cant do this at this time but i ll make it any other time.
But i too not know about marker i can only make of copying the text to a file.
But let me know the app you are building is a database or any other.
If not then you use FSO system for this purpose on a timer control. Which saves all the data in the textboxes, state of checkboxes and other controls in a txt or any other file.
Let you set 1 second to timer then timer save all the state to the txt file after every 1 second
You can tell by marker to the person who give the idea.

I m SORRY buddy

GOODLUCK

Crc16 on power failure

by: maxthebaz | last post by:

Our machines have this requirement: if power failure occurs, many important variables are to be resumed from where they were interrupted after the machine is restarted (power on in this case). In other words, the basic idea is to keep a snapshot of the state machine before it is interrupted. The board is provided with: - a 32-bit H8S/2633 Hitachi microprocessor; - a battery-backed memory (BBM), where these variables are stored; BBM area...

Problem With Comparison Operator <=> in G++

by: Oralloy | last post by:

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
