New Dialog

Can anyone help us out here


I want to create a new Dialog from the existing base class Dialog


Ive added a new Dialog to my resources and registered with class wizard but im have trouble instantiating the new form


My Dialog is called CMyDialog and in doing this


CMyDialog MyDlg(this);
int nRetcode = MyDlg.DoModal();


The class im calling from is called CAboutDlg do i have to use this somewhere

Where are you instantiating the new object? Do you create it when something is clicked on or moused over, when the parent dialog is initialized...?

And what exactly is happening? Is the dialog not showing up, or are you getting error messages?

If you're calling from CAboutDlg, then you won't be able to access your CMyDialog object until you open the About dialog (Help->About), assuming you're using either an SDI or MDI -type framework.

Thanks for your reply


I had a button on one form that invokes a new Dialog but i forgot to add the include in the parent class for my new Dialog


One i done that it worked


Thanks
