Hello,

I want to develop a today screen plugin for WM2003SE up to WM6. The
only sample codes I could find where all written in native Win32 API.
Which I'm not very familiar too, I always worked with mfc.
I have developed some nice MFC controls in my program and now want to
use them in the today plugin too. Is there any way to use my mfc
controls in the (Win32-API) today plugin?
Or anyone even has sample code of a MFC today sceen plugin?

Any help would be great!

BTW: I use Visual Studio 2005 Standard

MFC doesn't work well with Today plug-in because when Today loads them too
early during boot. One possible resolution is to extract all functionality
that uses MFC into a separate plug-in and loads it from a "proxy" plug-in
that doesn't use MFC. Another options is to use WTL/ATL instead of MFC.
