The "Measurement" argument of the OnAcquiredDataCWCounter event handler is a pointer to a VARIANT. To access the contents of a VARIANT and place it in a Microsoft Edit Box you can do something similar to the following inside of the event handler:
void CDAQSTCBufferedDlg::OnAcquiredDataCwcounter1(VARIANT FAR* Measurement, BOOL Overflow)
{
CString mstr;
mstr.Format ("%lf", Measurement->dblVal);
m_edit.SetWindowText (mstr);
}
I have attached a simple project that illustrates basically the same concept. It has a CWSlide control and an MS Edit Box on the dialog. When the CWSlide's pointer changes position, I update the Edit Box with the new value of the pointer's position. (Make sure to rebuild the entire project to execute it).
