You can override the OnCreate member function, and create controls dynamically there. And handle the command BN_CLICKED of the Ok button and put there your own DDX ....etc. etc.
I think this seems complicated and useless. What do you want dynamic dialog box for? Could you not create the dialog box in resource editor and only make the specific controls visible/invisible at runtime?

Thanks for your reply,
But I have to create OCX of my Dialog so, I want to create DialogBOx without Resource. Any how I got answer and will post this artical on codeproject as soon as possible. But the real problem is even I am able to create DialogBox Dynamically. I am not able to attach the controls to it dynamically. Once I get this answer I will post it as soon as possible.

Web control in modeless dialog steals focus

I have a web control inside a modeless dialog in view/doc application. The dialog is implemented as a child of the mainframe. The problem is, when something changes in the web control (navigate2() is called), the dialog steals the focus from the mainframe and view.

Is there any way to prevent this, or restore focus back to the previous window who had it?

Use the GetModuleFileName() API.

CString strDirectoryPath;
TCHAR zName[MAX_PATH];
TCHAR* zLast;

::GetModuleFileName(0,zName,sizeof(zName));
zLast=_tcsrchr( zName, (TCHAR)'\\');
if (zLast)
    *(zLast+1) = (TCHAR)'\0';

strDirectoryPath = zName;

///////////////////////////
ASSERT( !strDirectoryPath.IsEmpty() );
///////////////////////////

return strDirectoryPath;

Thanx i guess this piece of code is little better.

CString strAppPath;
::GetModuleFileName(NULL,strAppPath.GetBuffer(MAX_PATH),MAX_PATH);
strAppPath.ReleaseBuffer();
strAppPath = strAppPath.Left(strAppPath.ReverseFind('\\'));
AfxMessageBox(strAppPath);

you can also check the GetCurrentDirectory() in the Platform SDK out:

Current directory is not what i want, i wanted the location of the exe file.
suppose the exe file is in c:\windows
and if you execute the program from c:\temp then c:\temp is ur current directory and c:\windows is the source directory

you can use the function SetRange32 to increase the range of your spin control.

kindly deselect "No thousands" check box in the spin control properties dialog.

CSpinButtonCtrl *pCtrl = (CSpinButtonCtrl *)GetDlgItem(IDC_SPIN);

pCtrl->SetRange32(lower limit,upper limit);

hi,

i have created the extension class ,but i am using this extension dll in an ocx control. though i export the whole class using AFX_EXT_CLASS and use it in my ocx, my ocx is not able to initialize in ActiveX test container. when i also export my functions ina .DEF file it initialize. I dont understant when it is already exported using AFX_EXT_CLASS why should i again export in a .DEF file.

implicit loading of the DLL has a problem, as extension
dll cannot be used in ocx as far as i know. so i have to
load it dynamically.

thanx for the help

Change button browse order

Hi guys,

I have a dialog with serveral CButtons. I notice I can go through (highlight) the button by pressing UP/DOWN/LEFT/RIGHT arrow key, however, it is not in the order I want. I am wondering if there is a quick way to change the "browse order" without manually doing it using WM_KEYDOWN. Has it got something to do with Resource.h ?

Also, in the dialog based application, Does hitting the Return(Enter) key always call the OnOK()? In my app (where there are child dialogs), sometimes it calls OnOK() of the parent dialog but sometimes it would launch OnBnClicked() of default button on the parent window. Is there a way I can insure to alawys call the OnOK()?

Please help,
Thanks alot.

you can choose tab order from the layou menu, to order the flow of control.

the button which you wish to get pressed on pressing enter key, set the button as default in its properties.

First, tell us what they are.
Second, tell us what version (VC6, VC7, VC2003) you are using.
Then we might be able to help you. In this forum, there is a lot of knowledge assembled.
