Problem while reading emf data....
Hi everybody,
I am trying to read a spool file for printer. For that purpose I am using GDI function. Actually when I am opening a file "GetEnhMetaFIle" returns me 0 as a return value. Please explain me what is the problem in my code. File location and everything is fine. My code is something like below:
LPCTSTR strFileName = "00002.SPL";
HENHMETAFILE hemf = GetEnhMetaFile(strFileName);
ENHMETAHEADER emh;
if(!hemf) {
printf("Problem\n");
}
Regards,
Chirag.

Enhanced metafiles have the extension of .emf. Apparently you're using .spl. Check this because even if you rename emf to spl the API GetEnhMetaFile will return an error
