If you are using a Unicode build you want to put _T(" ") instead of just
the " ". You could also try putting some actual characters in there like
"..." just to see if it is the blanks that are causing your grief.

Hi,

I have a splashbutton, in there I am using AddMessage method to add
message on the fly. Actually I show the progress. I ran into a
problem. First I show a number say 10% on the second round, I want to
change the text to 20%. So I first write " " (blank characters)
and then write the new number. So users get the feeling the progress
is happening. But When I tried, the blank characters are not writing
and the text is over writing itself. Could some one help? Here is the
code I am trying to do it.

AddMessage(" ", SLIDE_TEXT_FONT,
              SLIDE_TEXT_FROM_BOTTOM,
              0, SLIDE_TEXT_FROM_RIGHT,
              FW_NORMAL, FALSE, FALSE, TA_CENTER,
              DT_CENTER|DT_BOTTOM|DT_SINGLELINE,
              SLIDE_COLOR);

   AddMessage(m_csSlideText, SLIDE_TEXT_FONT,
              SLIDE_TEXT_FROM_BOTTOM,
              0, SLIDE_TEXT_FROM_RIGHT,
              FW_NORMAL, FALSE, FALSE, TA_CENTER,
              DT_CENTER|DT_BOTTOM|DT_SINGLELINE,
              SLIDE_COLOR);

Thanks all.
